I don't think most people are upset that they may have to do all 20 activities as much as they are upset that the "bonus" has been unfairly distributed by continent. No matter how you word it, the players in the US are not getting that bonus if they work normal work hours and require sleep at night. It is systematically unfair to not have scheduled JMOD "bonus" stamps for the working people in the US while having them for people in Europe.

Yes Mod Lee was a great help with randoms. But please, be honest in describing the situation when you say it's a bonus under these circumstances. It's a not a bonus when it's scheduled for one group and not another group. The scheduled group knows exactly when it will happen and don't have to get out of bed in the middle of the night for it. It seems to be a bonus for the US, not else where.

For myself I'm almost done with mine. For my husband who works a lot, he may not get it done at all because there aren't scheduled ones and the randoms are hit and miss.

Well said eclectic Sol. You expressed my frustration exactly in a much more eloquent fashion. My greatest appreciation goes out to you.

It's a game and mostly in competition against only computer generated bits of data that have no personality. When personality is added, it should be done with absolute fairness which often requires thorough consideration to avoid playing favorites.

I concur Eclectic Sol, my wife had a great idea where (given all the automations that have been created on the game) this would all be taken care of if Jagex would place an NPC that would every-so-often do the "stamp-blast" and no one would go without regardless of time or continent ensuring participation all around - after all, are we not here to get away from the day's frustrations and enjoy the game and one another's company? (we 'are' paying after all to be members and get perks like these?).....

Actually the times are best suited to Asia or eastern Europe and in the uk the scheduled times are mid day and mid after noon = the UK players are at work or school at the scheduled stampings so not good there either. at least the west coast can get up early to meet the times

It is 02:38 atm - maybe a mod may come on during the night - not likely - or possibly at 07:00 before they start their day or at 09:00 when they get a morning break if not schedule will probably show 11:00 or 12:00 and then something between 14:00 and 16:00 schedule not yet posted for the 17th

Was 16 May the last stamping session or will there be more?

I agree with Eclectic Sol and think O Ren's wife has an excellent solution. All it would take is a little coding :)
