Welcome to December - Part 2

Site Update

Goto News Post

I swapped around the entries from the GP and BP threads. You get the highest prize possible (EG: If you submitted for GP and got into the BP Shop, or if you submitted for BP and got into the GP Shop).

I have a couple pets saved from the thread also that I want to use in the forest, so a couple others are in limbo until then. :)

GP Shop Pets!






BP Shop Pets!






Monthly Potion and Premium Item!

The December 2010 potion is hanging out in the BP Shop for 400k, and the monthly premium item is a Basic Stocking. :)

Other Stuff
Trophies have been awarded, after a bit of a chaotic experience last night. XD I don't have much else to say, except what do you think of Yasu's new Nav idea?



Would you prefer a nav like this? If you've noticed we're slowly running out of room in some of our sections (Archives and Shopping for example) so this would fix that problem :)

Welcome to December - Part 1

Site Update

Goto News Post

December, December, December!

There's a lot to get through, so the second part for December 1st will happen later today.

Holiday Forest


The Holiday Forest is up and ready for you to discover the tons of new pets available throughout the month!


etc, etc

Here are the items you'll want to collect as trade-in currency after Dec 25.


Christmas Tree!

Give lots and lots of gifts that your friends can't open until the 25th! =D Leave cute notes with them too.

Your friends (and lovely stalkers) can't read your mind so be sure to put some sort of wish list on your profile so they know what you want!

SALES!
Yes, plenty of delicious sales! <33

Get 10% More GP when you make a purchase between now and January 1st!
Perfect to help you buy some more awesome gifts.

Custom Crystal Sale!
Buy 2, Get 1 Free! If you buy two crystals, you can get a third one of equal or lesser value to your lowest priced crystal for free. This also ends on the 1st of January =D

If you want to do this sale, contact me (user #1) with what crystals you're buying and send the GP to me.

Example:

Gold + Gold -- Free Gold
Gold + Blue -- Free Blue
Coal + Gold -- Free Blue

YAAAAAY SALES!

Advent Calender!

Be sure to check the calender every day to get your prize =D

SNOWBALLS!

I sent you one but it's up to you to find more in the Holiday Forest! If you throw one at a friend, it'll tell them they got smacked in the face with a snowball. 8'D

So start a snowball war!

Special Items!
There are a lot of new items in the GP Shop, so let me explain them all to you:


The stocking items rise in price depending on how rare the prize inside is. They cannot be opened until the 25th. The prize is at least equal to the price of the stocking (for example, the Basic Stocking is 5 GP, and the worst you can get is a Delicious Eggnog, also worth 5 GP). The Elaborate Stocking is the only stocking item that might contain a Holiday Breeding Pendant.


These are new breeding items that allow you to breed two different species pets. They do not produce hybrids. For example if you breed a chiro to a meep, you'll get offspring either chiro or meep that are colored like the parents (like a BC baby). You can breed SCCs with these.


This is a special custom creating item that allows you to make the uncommon species, 30% edits, in a Holiday-style theme.


When your pet eats this, it has a 5% chance to find a random custom-creating crystal (no unbreedable and no dawn crystals out of this).


This you can't open until the 25th. It will produce one of a couple Holiday different rare species pets - eg, Lunaris, Vion, hybrids, etc. Collect a bunch to try your hand at the whole set of rares. :) There will be around 5-10 depending on where I put the rares for the currency shop.


Yasu's still working on this one, but it gives you a 10% chance of a random breeding with another pet who uses this item and succeeds also.


This item can only be opened on the 25th. Pretty self explanatory, it opens into a random breeding item. It can produce either BC, Holiday BC, Metal BC, Half LBC, Lesser BC, Evil BC, or Radioactive BC.


This item contains one of each of the December presents: one of each stocking, a Holiday BC, Holiday Coal, one Flame Pudding, one Holiday Aywa Gift, one Eggnog, and one Random BC package. Pretty nice value if you want to get all the items.

A couple of items (Fertility Potion, Raw Gold and Blue crystals) were moved to the BP shop to spend sometime there.


Okay, that's all I got for you tonight. In the afternoon I'll come back with GP and BP shop pets, high scores, premium item, and so forth.

SPECIES TUTORIAL!

Site Update

Goto News Post


Hey, hey you!
Check out the awesome Species Tutorial that Kyu and Mauri made!


To make the species tutorial fit, I moved Search and Item List to the "Shopping" tab. I figure the search suits that tab better anyway.

Saturday madness?

Pets

Goto News Post

Instead of explore pets, I have some different pets for you to contemplate...

Back in June we ran a contest where people could submit colorations on alternate hybrid linearts. The idea for the pets was dropped but the images are still so pretty D=




And a Vion, because... pretty images never being used! D=

So I figured out a different way to release them!

How do you get them, you might ask? Well... there are a bunch of items you seem to hate...

Annoying Item Bazaar
Trade in those annoying items!

Now that there are more than just the Cheetah Quetzal released, here's how the alt hybrids will work. There will be others released in time, so...

You can breed them to anything with a Breeding Coin (same as any pet), but if you want to use a same-species coin on them, you can only breed them to an alt hybrid of their same species (so the lineart has to match). You can't make customs of them at this time.

Have fun!

EDIT: Tweaked the prices in the shop based on the amount that exist on the site =D

Winner Winner Turkey Dinner
No chicken dinners here, because that's just lame.

Here is the winner of the Thanksgiving news post contest:

wispytearz (#9634)
I've only been here for two months or so and in that time have won, been randomly given and easily earned so much awesome stuff. You guys give so much back to the community. On many sites, it is difficult to get much of anything without paying or devoting several hours a day to the site. Here, a person with a life can still have a good time and get lots of really awesome things. When I first looked into how much customs cost, I didn't think I'd ever have even one and now I have 7, not to mention the hundreds of other really pretty pets. You guys are awesome ^_^


This user won a chicken turkey dinner and a pair of Flame Custom Orbs


In other news...
