That is a GM call (riddled with ls/party chats) I had with a GM after dynamis qufim glitched on us and ??? for subs was not in the zone (another GM confirmed it was a glitch, but still refused to do anything).

Edit: I couldnt SS chatlog because I do not use windower, so I took it from temp file and removed all the code.
Edit: copied Krye's formatting.

[Naver]

too hard to read, clean it up some!

EDIT: Damn you Krye, I guess I shouldn't have wasted my time bolding.

[Koga]

wut?

[Suiram]

I had been the lone subjob checker in Qufim for my Dynamis LS for dozens of runs, had made a map that I was absolutely certain contained all and only those locations where the ??? could pop. In a discussion in Event strategies I called into question the spots marked on some other people's maps, and the very next run that week it popped in a location I had never seen before. Fortunately it was marked on one of the other maps in that thread so I found it, but I guess the point I'm making is that there is a very good chance it was up somewhere you didn't know to check.

I think most Dynamis LSs have probably had at least one Qufim run ruined by mystery ???s, so I wouldn't feel so bad about it, but chances are it wasn't a glitch. Although I agree the GM conversation is kinda funny.

[Raineer]

Regardless of whether you missed a phantom ??? or not.... w o w @ that GM

[rath]

We had about 10 people scouring the zone, not just checking all known locations. We also has about 10 other GM calls (cause we felt like pissing them off in retrun), one of them said something about checking the zone. We also asked about letting us back in. He came back and said he is sorry for the technical issue we had experienced, but he would be unable to reset our timers/refund glass/allow us back in. But he said thank you for making them aware of the issue.

Edit: I posted this one, because I swear I got botted by a GM.

[Seditedi]

Long story short, you simply missed the ??? to unlock SJs.

[Krye]

another GM confirmed it was a glitch

[aurik]

Since when do GMs know anything?

Bottom line, you missed the ???

[Vigilia]

Long story short, you simply missed the ??? to unlock SJs.

Because GMs know how the game is supposed to work. First time ever I did "Sheep in Antlion's clothing", we didn't know the chest pops where the boss NM dies and we were really close on time so the second it died we all dashed to the middle of arena as usual in BCNMs to pop chest.. chest which wasn't there. We timed out, I GM'd it and he too reported it as a glitch, said it's not supposed to happen and apologised. Anyway, not directly related to here but it's taught me to not take GM's word for truth.

Another question is what map to Qufim were you using? The most accurate I know of is the one currently on DynamisBums (http://www.dynamisbums.com/strategy/quf.html) site, everywhere else is fairly out-dated and missing ???s. OtherWiki is definitely old, so's BGwiki.

[Secksi]

First time I was one of the ??? checkers I was using dynamis bums, myself and another thf checked almost every location without finding it as people killed bats. Then someone clicked it at the NW bats........totally didn't see that one on the map, lol.

[rath]

We have done this zone quite a bit, not once have we ever failed to get a ??? within 15 minutes of entering the zone.

We spent a good 20 minutes with 4 people searching all known locations+anywhere in between, we then had people pulling up other maps (like dynamis bums/bg-wiki/other-wiki/KI. This is not a huge map, we had about ten people going over it repeatedly, there isn't much place you can hide a ??? from a bunch of people that couldn't care less about dying 5 times to check every nook and cranny.

If we did miss it, I would like to know where it was lol. Either way, I posted more because of this lazy fuck of a GM giving me macro'd responses, that is why I posted in newbie forum.

[Krye]

Yeah, I lawled at the GM coming out of nowhere with that.

[Obev]

Is my reading comprehension failing me, or did this GM respond to "your game isn't working properly" with "excellent!"?

[Day]

I work tech support and I can't wait to get my next call today. I'm so saying "Excellent!" at whatever problem they have.

[Suiram]

I keep imagining it as Mr. Burns at the GM call center sadistically pleased to find out that their Qufim run was ruined.

[Izzy]

You missed the ???. We've taken over 40 mins to find it once. It wasn't in any of the normal spots. It ended up being in a spot we have never seen it before. Shit happens.

Many other people would have had the same problem already if it was in fact a glitch.
Dynamis-Qufim is what like 2 years old now? I rest my case.
