    Same here. No event. iOS player. Got the call from Simon about a travel gig, I assume that's the event gig but won't do it until I get the event. The megaphone changed to the reality show event color, but it's still the NARS notification.
    I really regret updating the game on Tuesday. If they were not ready to launch the weekend event, what was the rush for the update? Why couldn't they give us a TB event on Tuesday so that they would have enough time to improve the game then let players update the game on the weekend? Saying that they didn't expect people to not update the game right away is just so not professional. They are not new in this game industry, are they?

    P.s. I wasn't going to post anything on the forum after seeing people criticizing Glu customer service person's English in another thread. English is my second language as well. I don't like the feeling of being judged. That customer service person might be on the forum reading everyone's posts. I will only post if I want Glu to hear my voice in order to make improvements to the game. Going back to lurking. Have a great weekend and Happy 4th of July, no matter we get the event or not. :)

    Don't let those people scare you off! I don't think they were making fun of the persons English, they were saying that it was probably fake because in official messages from a company correct grammar and spelling is expected. Nobody cares here on the forum, as long as it's understandable. I think actually most people on here are not native English speakers, or at least half. You should be proud that you know two languages so well, nobody cares about perfection.

    I got my event 15 minutes ago.

    I chased the hair (I never chase) and got it after a *few* boxes. I don't often open boxes either. I also got 40 stars, the purple lady bits shirt, the awful blue and white pants suit, 50 energy, the necklace, 4,000 kash, and then the hair.

    I love the hair!

    I don't really care for the outfit all together, but you could probably make it work with something else, like the top with white jeans or something.

    Wow. Thats exactly how I felt. No one here should ever criticize another's English. It doesn't matter if they are refering to forum members or Glu employees... it's hurtful IMO

    Well the event finally started for me. And at least I had some good luck with my gift boxes to make up for the delay.

    I really love the gift box dress but I'm going to quit while I'm ahead lol. Maybe I'll open one or two more boxes later in the weekend.

    I'm sorry Daleth, I've asked everyone to please not name people in the forum. Use the blanket term Customer Care, or any other group of people. It's wrong and I'm going to try and find them and clean them up. Since you'll still lurk, you see the change. :) Stick around, it only gets better from here.

    Man, I'm not crazy about the items, but to me, they are a lot better than last year's dreck. Also how is everyone? I've been a little frustrated with the game lately (unresponsive customer care, weird evasive answers when I do get someone to respond to me, etc.). Anyway, sorry to complain, I know I should go to hookah with it. (Sorry Koko! <3)

    Does anyone have any fun plans for the weekend? I went to my first kickboxing class today and I'm hoping to hit up another over the weekend.

    I feel ya Max.. The only item I like is obviously the hair..

    About the weekend, I am free this weekend (after a loooong time and finally in Sofia lol) and I plan going hiking in the mountain with a friend tomorrow. As for Sunday, currently no plans, maybe I'll stay at home to read a book and relax :) oh, and grind too lol

    The luck is on my side this weekend it seems.
    As always I forgot to screenshot my first palette but I opened box 3 (my free box) got a white daily gift box jumpsuit, then box 7 got 40K, then box 1 got 40K. The hair was in box 8. So I opened a second palette and choose box 8 and got the hair. Yeyyy.

    Edit: See... it took me forever to write this short post. I didn't even notice that I have the event now!

    That's a great point. I know people love the events but it's important to remember that. Not to mention that with this event launching 2am in california/5am on the other coast I'd guess the release is on some sort of timer so if it has an error than it's more likely just an accident & not in any way meant to harm the players or wreck their chances.

    No one is denying the error is an accident, like, obviously this isn't them being intentionally malicious... that doesn't change the fact it makes Glu look incompetent and careless. This isn't a one-off, it's a weekly occurrence at MINIMUM. Glu needs to step up to the plate already. This 'glitch' is obviously fixable and avoidable, so why does it keep happening? Every ****** week? If not on one platform, then on another??? It's not good enough. We expect better.

    My event started with a little drama...

    The event started in time and I had to finish an 8 hour reality show gig that I started last night with just 1 energy bold. Afterwards I did two 3 hour gigs and voila - already time to open my free gift box!

    I got the star necklace and I was super happy with it! I also liked the hair, but decided not to chase it this time.

    So I left the game very happy and satisfied. After 3 hours I returned to my doll with her cute star necklace and got a message. I finshed my 8 hour gig with just 4 stars. What? Excuse me? Then I realized what happened. I'm already familiar with that problem on K&K and very rarely on KKH aswell. My game has resetted itself to a point before the event.

    I was really angry and sad. WHYYYY DOES THIS ALWAYS HAPPEN TO MEEEE?? With a heavy heart I started two 3 hour gigs and reached my free gift box again in hope to get my necklace back. BUT NO. 4000 Kash. I was about to burst out in anger and tears and wanted to throw my phone against the wall.

    Alright, **** everything, I opened another box. 4000 Kash. AGAIN. I was about to cry. **** it. Next box. THE HAIR. Ok, my tears dried very quickly. But what about my necklace? I really liked it and it matched perfectly with my current Reykjavik style. Ok, one more box. 40 Stars. A box for free, I'm not complaining. Another! THE NECKLACE.

    1000 stones fell off my heart. I got the hair and my beloved necklace back. Those two boxes with Kash in it were forgotten. I happily accept my new written destiny.

    What a drama! I'm telling you. This game plays with my feelings like no boy ever could.

    I'm sorry to hear that the iOS devices are glitchy right now. Someone mentioned how things have 'worked well for months & now it's glitchy' which is true but hopefully the recent missteps are simply that instead of an indication of a bigger issue. KKH is a HUGE money maker for GLU, no way are they trying to throw it under the bus.

    Meanwhile, I should have KNOWN the black & white outfit was too nice to be earnable XD I'm not as enthralled with the hair having seen it on so hopefully some of the male games can post their boxes here & I can glimpse a pattern for the top at least and, if I'm lucky, the pants too as I have enough stars for one extra box.

    But....it's just a mistake? And they fixed it within 2 hours.

    GLU is managing several games right now after all and I would imagine prompt fixes are part of 'stepping up to the plate', no need to be so hostile. Well, towards me at least LMAO!

    Thanks SugarK, hopefully you make the picks you want to too :3

    Then I got my free box and I should have known not to pick the same box but oh well. I'm not even caring about ugly shoes because I'm so happy I got the lovely hair this time :o:o

    Been there, done that :( Don't waste all your stars opening a ton of boxes at once (like I always do, then I'm sad AND mad at myself). Wait for a more positive vibe and try later. Good luck hun, hugs!

    I feel that. I try to tell myself 'oh, it's just pixels' but I'm also in my feelings about it for maybe a half hour afterwards, even worse when I miss something by *one* box in the wrong direction XP

    Like, right now I'm nervous to be the first guy to start/open a box because I'm worried I'll have some bad luck. I'll get over it by this afternoon tho!

    Good morning everyone!

    I came on to say good luck with the event, but I'm very sorry to see that it started late (again). Although, I can't really say that I'm surprised. It's nice to see that they fixed it in a more timely manner this time, much better than with the North's birthday fiasco when I couldn't even get into the game for almost 20 hours.

    I've started the event now. I'm going to keep doing 8-hour reality shows until I finally get a product placement, as I really want to test out that part of the update. I'm starting to get concerned that I haven't gotten one yet, though. And I really want to switch to 3-hour shows soon.

    I opened my free giftbox as well, but I forgot to take a picture (sorry)! I got the necklace, it was in the top-right corner. I'm actually really happy as I NEVER get event items in my free box. In terms of the giftbox items, I only liked the hair and necklace, so at least it was something I like (and I'll get extra event points)! I opted not to spend any kstars on extra boxes because nothing was really worth it to me.

    Also, I'm really happy that the boots are earnable! Yay!

    Oh I'm not opening anymore. I tried 3 times(free box and bought 2) that's my max. I don't chase past 3 boxes because I have self control and I'm trying to save my k stars for when I REALLY want items and hopefully that happens during a VIP weekend cuz I could earn them back lol. I am very stingy with my k stars

    I haven't been hostile to you. It's not "just" a mistake when it's happened approx six weeks in a row. It's now a pattern. A pattern of incompetence that must be remedied if they want to show their players any respect. Stepping up to the plate is ensuring everything is in order BEFORE the event goes live, not after. You may accept this "glitch" to be a new part of this game, as something natural and inevitable, but I do not. This never used to happen, it doesn't happen in any of the other Glu games, but now it happens in this game all the time. It's avoidable, there's no reason for this to happen repeatedly, so I am allowed to expect better. I am allowed to expect a company to finally learn from their mistakes and stop repeating them. There's nothing unreasonable about what I'm saying here.

    I am also very stingy with my kstars! I can't afford to pay real money for them, so the ones that I earn are usually saved up for VIP weekends. I'll let myself buy giftboxes during other events only if I REALLY like MOST of the items (not just one). I usually have pretty bad luck, though.

    my first box was 50 energy. Im kind of glad I got that because I then played catch up for a little bit for the time lost. Still, it wouldve been nice to earn clothing or hair.
