*The latest update, July 8, from the Wizard101 social media site*

Wizard101 (13h)
"Game servers will be under maintenance on July 8 at 2am CT for a couple of hours.

We are fixing the Scroll of Fortune points issue. Double SoF Points will be enabled in the morning thru 7/11 to help you regain lost points.

Thanks for your patience as we resolve this issue!"


From the Monthly Event Calendar:

Summer Scroll of Fortune!

"Think of the Scroll of Fortune as a way to track and reward your progress as you participate in events. The more events you participate in, the more points and prizes you receive! Special summer-themed rewards include the Boxplane Captain’s Gear, Takeoff Teleport Effect, Pretend Windsock Housing Item, the NEW Boxplane Mount, and much more.

The Summer Scroll of Fortune runs through August 28th."

See the complete Announcement here: https://www.wizard101.com/game/summer-sof-2022


*Note* I saw these posts today (July 5th) on the W101 social media site:

"Is anyone else having trouble with Scroll points registering? I only needed 2 points to get the next reward. I got 60 and the Scroll progress didn't move."
W101 replied: "Hey! We are aware of this issue and are looking into it now, thank you!"

And "Getting points in beastmoon, it's counting for the beastmoon event, but not counting toward the scroll of fortune."
W101 replied: "Hello, we are aware of this issue and looking into it now."

Thanks for your patience as we work on this!"
