Mega May is was an event that took place from 3 May until 13 June 2016. It involved bonuses in different areas of the game over each weekend, alongside a month-long boost to Player-owned port, as well as an event to assist Meg in investigations. Players could check the details of these events via the Mega May interface which was accessible via a pop-up icon similar to the Treasure Hunter button. The event was accessible to Ironman Mode players and Free-to-play players (it was possible for free-to-play players to enter the ports portal, though taking part in player-owned ports remained members' content).[1]

Meg's Investigation Services

From 3 May players could unlock a new investigation case each day. Even though only one new case could be unlocked per day, players were able to complete multiple cases on the same day. It was possible to complete cases until 13 June. To start case players would have to speak to the relevant NPC who explained the details of what they wished the player to investigate. There were 30 cases to complete. 2 were related to finding missing pets, 18 involved finding missing items, 4 required finding a missing person and 4 were miscellaneous. Around half of the missions were part of a continuing story line.[1]
