We already made plans to do all nighters... triple XP makes it all the sweeter! most of us are over 40 and getting an achievement for getting to 50 will be sweet. some of us are trying to get to 100...lol a bit out of my reach

Triple XP is the best, got me to 30 really quick, and now I've been stuck around 33 forever...

I think I would be stupid not to get in on this. I've done the whole wave 50 cheevo, but not much else -- I'm pretty much the n00b.

Kitty & I played, but I couldn't tell if we were getting x3 XP & nothing is stated when you first turn on the game, like they did for St. Pat's x2 XP. But everywhere I look it says it has already started... unless i'm missing something

before this event you were getting double XP by default so don't expect the double to be tripled.
Triple XP - here's the test, in Horde, each wave is 300 for Casual, 450 for Normal, 600 for Hardcore and 750 for Insane.

My friend and I were talking about this last night, and we remembered the last time they did double XP over a holiday, they left it like that for months and when they finally went down to single, it was awful. I thought too the last time we played about a month ago (and it was def after St Patrick's Day), the casual was 150 exp for normal, but maybe I was wrong? I know last night casual was 450 and hard was 600 when we played. Also didn't seem that the "join an existing horde match" function was working, but I had a lot of connection problems due to the weather here so who knows....
