There was an issue with the Merry Mayhem mission that moved you to Category 4 if you killed a Cornundacauda Prowler or Stalker. From that point on, kills in your correct category did not award kill points. That issue has now been resolved, and Cornundacauda Prowlers and Stalkers are now safe to hunt.
How do I know that I was affected?
If you were moved to Category 4 when you really belong to another category, then you have been affected.
What should I do if I am affected?
If you are affected, you have two options.
1: Just continue. First talk to Carl Tucker again, and you will be moved to the correct category. Then you just continue from where you were. Online time will count from Dec 26th 00:00 UTC.
2: Start over. You abandon the mission. Then you get the mission again, and start with a clean slate. If you get the mission at some point after Monday Dec 27th 11:00 UTC, your online time will count from Dec 27th 11:00.
In both cases, the event has been extended to Dec 31st 23:59.
What should I do if I am not affected?
If you are not affected by the bug, you don’t have to do anything. The event is still extended to Dec 31st 23:59.
The mission and Carl Tucker says the event ends on Dec 30th 23:59
The mission text could not be updated by the fix. The event ends Dec 31st 23:59, even if the mission text says otherwise.
It has come to our attention that there is a bug in the Merry Mayhem mission. The bug seems to be triggered when in Category 1 and killing Cornundacauda Stalker or Prowler. When the bug hits, you will be moved to Category 4 and further Cornundacauda kills do not count.
We will fix this bug as soon as possible. Expected time for the fix is around Monday morning (Swedish time). Until then, avoid hunting Cornundacauda Prowler and Stalker. If you are affected, you are advised to know that Cornundacauda kills do not count until the fix is up.
Because of the bug, we will push the end date of Mayhem by 24 hours.
Further information will be posted on Planet Calypso Forum and in the client loader as soon as we have it.
We are very sorry about the situation and we sincerely apologize for it.

RESETTLEMENT UPDATE
Recent attacks by Steelbirds, the new flying robot model, proved only to be the beginning. We can now reveal that the robots in utmost secrecy have refitted and retooled the wreckage of the War Titan Typhon that crashed into Hadesheim six years ago into a base for their operations.
Satellite surveillance was blanked momentarily by electro-magnetic pulses from Hadesheim, and as they came back online, infrared photography revealed new structures under the cloud cover of the crater. Some of them were active, launching objects in suborbital mid-range trajectories on Eudoria.
Colonel Briers in Port Atlantis has confirmed that CDF and CFA will cooperate to take the fight to the Steelbirds. He also hinted that CDF is developing a strategy to investigate the crater and the mysterious drops over Eudoria, but as they are unfinished, CDF does not want to reveal them at the moment.
NEW FEATURES
Hadesheim crater redesigned: We’ve redesigned the Hadesheim crater for the event. You will experience an entirely new crater, including Camp Phoenix and the outpost north of the crater. Most of the story related missions are centered around the crater.
New missions: We have 17 new missions for this release, among them a seasonal Iron Challenge, a permanent Iron Challenge, a mining challenge and some missions related to the story of the Harbinger event.
All missions will not be available at once. At first there will only be the Iron Challenges. A set of story related missions will open on November 11th, and a few more that concludes the event will open on November 23rd. Some missions (but not all) will close on November 30th as the event closes. If a mission is limited to certain dates, it will be stated clearly in the mission’s description.
Colonel Briers in the needle tower in Port Atlantis is the contact for the Steelbird Iron Challenge and the story missions. Todd Hamlish in Camp Phoenix will hand out the mining challenge, and Fritz Feldgast at Cape Corinth will hand out the Eviscerator Iron Challenge.
Shared loot: We have a new feature that allows us to share loot from event mobs. The feature, if activated, splits loot among everyone that inflicted damage on the mob similarly to the rule “Damage: Stack share”. Team loot rules are ignored for these mobs.
We have activated shared loot on Steel Bird Elite spawns for this event.
