    "The following expirations will occur at Midnight CST, November 2, 2015:"

    Does that mean we have one more day to get the 15% bonus from converted credit or it happens 'tonight' at midnight?

    Sounds like as soon as it turns 12:00am on the 2nd the experations will happen? or do we have till 11:59pm on the 2nd?

    Strictly speaking, I think Nov 1st only goes until 11:59 p.m. So you wouldn't have a whole day to wait until the expirations start. Maybe the folks at Portalarium intend it differently though. I wouldn't take the chance by waiting a day if I wanted to be sure to get something before the expirations :).

    The 15% Black Friday bonus lasts until December 1, and as Spoon indicates is only for newly spent money. From the weekly update:
    For all new purchases (including pledges, pledge upgrades, add-on items, player owned towns, player owned town upgrades, stretch goal items, and Make a Difference items) between 12:00 am CST October 2, 2015 and 12:00 am CST December 1, 2015, we will add an additional 15% bonus to your Store Credit!

    sorry my question is for when the actual experations happens.

    So to convert new money to credit you have to wait till 1:00pm CST(not sure why) to get the 15% bonus.

    My questions is:

    Can i still buy credits today and up my pledge tomorrow without experations? does it expire Tonight' at 12:00am or tomorrow (the 2nd) at 12:00am.

    Midnight tonight is the deadline.
    I think it's too late to buy credit today and up your pledge tomorrow.
    If you want to get in before the expiration, your only choice at this point is to upgrade today.

    That is what i figured.

    Thanks for all the answers.

    What a convoluted and stupid system...

    Makes me not want to upgrade....

    Aside from the fact that the dead line notification and 15% have overlapped for about a month... I'm not quite sure what is convoluted or stupid.

    Well the fact that you have to buy store credit and wait until the following day to get a discount? also you have to wait until a wipe to convert credit? in a pre alpha?

    You think that's normal?
