I was logged in without changing channels for 6 hours and did not receive a chisel. Only after getting DC'd and relogging did I get one set of 5. Even when I got the attendance event item it did not give me the chisels.
This event is a perfect combination of good ideas delivered in the wrong way.
I'm certain I could spend half an hour going on and on about my own story, as I'm certain many of us can. I can remember nearly every moment of my whole Mabinogi career. From way back when I was in awe over a friend's spirit weapon, back when they were behind a paywall, to helping that friend use Rundal for Windmill training, again back when Windmill was both required usage and did 10% self-damage. The gladius that friend gave after she lost the one I loaned her for the dungeon became my own spirit weapon later down the road, and that same spirit is now in a Dustin Knight Sword, glowing very brightly.
I wish I had my old screenshots. The ones of my old guild sitting in a circle around Shenon way back when we had to wait for the boat and we all tried to time out ice bolt perfectly so that they wouldn't overlap as they floated around us. I honestly can't even remember the names of most of those guild members, or even the guild's name. But I remember that the guild stone was sitting west of the Moon Gate. Or the horde of screenshots I tried to make into "comics" by adding captions. Those ones would be the most difficult to look at, both because of the bad reference comedy I used to try half a decade ago, and because my second guild helped put most of them together. The only person I ever married in Mabinogi came from that second guild, and that girl I became close with in real life. I got lucky and she was merely 30 minutes away from me, and our relationship lasted nearly five years before she died in a car accident. I remember her lauding the gingerbread cooking truck pet and her shunning me for an hour when I said I wanted it. She had already quit the game at that point.
I'm still in my third guild. It expired a year ago and of the two and a half dozen people still in it, not including myself, two logged in 5 weeks ago, and one logged in three weeks ago. Everyone else is 15+. Even though I have virtually no ties to the guild, since I joined because of one person, I refuse to leave it. I still have that one person on my friend's list, and their one of the two people I could contact outside the game. I have his email, though I don't know if he'd respond. He's the one that tried to teach me to read sheet music. I bet I could find his old youtube, as I'm in several of his videos. The other person I have added on Steam and they're almost always playing whatever the hot anime game of the week is (Tales, Neptunia, etc.). I haven't spoken with them in a long time, though. Maybe some Dungeon Fighter would spark some conversation with them.
Of the rest of my friend's list, I only remember two of the other names. All the others I have no recollection of who they are or why I added them. But those other two, one who was active for a long time and one who stopped conversing with anyone when homesteading was introduced, but was always active. I never wanted to remove him because his homestead is public and has dozens of every kind of herb and a full spread of crafting equipment. One was from the second guild. He was semi-unfocused in his skills like me, but every single one of his items, from his shoes to his spirit LLB to his gladius and shield they were powder pink with a white trim. Never the other way around. He helped me fight Claimh Solas.
And those are just the people. The stories of dungeons I remember, of the time I gave away hordes of neatly colored items, the stories I have of 10k dye amps being haggled over, my rage during certain forced solo generation quests, the fact that I have several thousand song scores ripped from an archive of the old version of Mabi Beats. Freakin' a, I learned to draw by tracing Mabi screenshots. My musical tastes were shaped by the game's soundtrack.
