    ST posted about the new JP Nintendo Dream Guild Card event. Between April 9 and April 11 starting from 9pm til 12pm JP time, look for two people by the name of "kAYAYAN"and " kei-TAISA." These 2 people will appear on ship 64. Discuss this in our forums.

    ST and Nintendo Dream have got together to hold the Guild Card Haiku Competition. it is literally what it says on the tin. You have to write a Haiku (In Japanese presumably) on your Guild Card.

    The editors of Nintendo Dream will be around on Pioneer 2 to gather Haikus (by collecting people's Guild Cards)

    If they manage to get 640 lines worth of Haiku from the Guild Cards, then a new quest (Beautiful Inolis) will be added. Here's how to order:

    *1. Haiku's must fit the standard pattern.
    1st line=5 syllables
    2nd line=7 syllables
    3rd line=5 syllables

    Haiku's must be written about 1 of the following:
    PSO
    Nintendo Dream
    Springtime

    *2. When you're done, write your Haiku and penname on your Guild Card

    *3. You must then go and find the Nintendo Dream editors! It seems there's been an "event" option added to Choice Search to make it easier

    Remember, there's 2 of them, named KAYAYAN and Kei-TAISA. They'll be easy to spot due to their orange names.

      Now that's not exactly true...We got Blue Star Memories as soon as they got it right? Though I do admit they get a lot more special events than we do, at least we can log onto the jap servers and participate.

      provided you can not only understand the language and even then if you do, your just a one of a few people who can participlate in it. It makes no sense to limit it simply because of location and language. We are can be just as interested as the japanese are about special event going on and its not fair to have them decide weather we get a new quest or not.

      As far as i've seen, Sonic team could care less about what we have to offer as far as input or about holding events for us. To them, we simply seem to be a stagging group of people who are just trying to get in the hype that they created over in japan. Like the ghetto of PSO if you would like to call it that. I was told off earlier durring this Haiku event when i went to turn in my own Haiku in. Another person i accidentally gave my card too, started telling at me, and then a group of others join in. Telling me how i was a pig or some sort of animal for even coming the japanese servers and it was non-japanese players who were destroying the game.

      In not trying to make them out to be the bad guys or anything of that sort. I just wanna see a cool event for some of the american and european people as well. its not fair that we watch them have all the fun and we dont get to have fun either.

      1) Sega of America is lazy. This is proven.

      2) Sega of Europe is lazy. This is proven.

      3 All of the major JP events have sponcers (Famitsu, Degenki, Nintendo Dream). I /seriously/ doubt Sonic Team approached any AMERICAN (or European) game magazines about throwing the ability to have events in the game on their behalf or vice versa.

      4) Sonic Team is lazy. This is proven.

      5) I believe the event graphics are stored on the CD, so they can't add anyone new if that's the case.
