Free training: dumb question

#1 Post by memeroni »

OK, I've never done any of the training stuff, but since I can get it free for my Koi today I thought I'd give it a whirl. However, I've selected a course and my only option is to pay for it with a dubloon. How exactly do I go about claiming my free training? I've done some searching here and elsewhere on the Internet, but have had no luck. :loser:

It may not have actually started yet - probably starts tomorrow, or possibly not until the 25th.
You'll need to cancel the training, and try again tomorrow...if it still doesn't work, try on the 25th. :)

If you've already selected the training and it's asking for the payment on the "status" page, you'll have to pay with a dubloon before you can get your free training (at least that's how it worked for me a few years ago). But if you haven't enrolled in the course yet, wait until midnight NST on the day of the free training, then go to the page where you pick out your course and pet -- it'll give you the prices, but that doesn't matter -- when you pick the course and go to the status page, it won't charge you and you can just enroll.

Just double checked on this: There should be an option to Pay or Cancel. (memeroni, you'll want to cancel for now.) This is specific to the dubloon training, codestone training doesn't have an option to cancel. :)
