Site Update
It's a new month and a new year, and I'm sure you're all anxious for our monthly goodies!
As much as I like to torture myself with massive news posts, I'm going to break them up into a few so you don't overwhelm yourself and miss something! By the lack of a snazzy sign, you can probably tell this is not the huge January post(s), but they're coming tomorrow.
My grandfather's memorial service was yesterday so I've been spending a lot of time with my family and trying to recuperate, but I'm very much looking forward to keeping myself busy on Aywas and appreciate everyone's support and understanding. <3
Now, lets knock some stuff out!
(I already uploaded the monthly pets, but they won't be officially announced until tomorrow. You're free to purchase them now, though. n_n)
Trivia
The trivia has been updated!

Mr. Death Bunny (#27858)

This week's prize is the elusive Celestial Talisman!
Coding Updates
You might've noticed a new face around the forums asking you about bugs and glitches.
That would be Dev (#8026), our new fixer-upper!
We work very well together, so I'm excited to have him alongside Yasu.
Dev is going to be working on various longstanding and new bugs that will make our game experience that much more enjoyable and easy to use.
Not only will I be assigning him things to work on, but we have a pair of moderators working on compiling lists of glitches to forward to him to ensure that we're addressing everything we need to. This also gives him two staff members at his disposal in case I don't have long periods of time to debug with him--you might even see him asking for YOUR help on the forums, so don't be shy! :3
Consequently, Lair Sorting is almost in tip-top shape! You can once more sort pets successfully, there are just a few issues with naming lair groups and updating the description, so that's next.
Yasu has been fighting with auctions, so if you've been waiting on an expired auction for a while, you probably saw the results today or will be seeing them soon! He manually ran a lot of the crons and rewrote the script to fix the problem that was keeping them from executing on their own, but still has some work to do on Item Auctions in particular. I'm ecstatic that he found the problem and has made so much progress--and I'm sure you are, too!
He is also working on the high score system. In addition to reworking the pet tables and cron issues there, he'll also be making a change that will allow you to view previous months' scores if all goes well!
I know many of you are curious about the other Adventure Locations, so I wanted to let you know that is another of Yasu's focuses. He needs to adjust some things before opening the closed locations and will also be ensuring broken/unusable Adventure items will work (I'm even going to get some of the equipment working myself! o:).
Okay, phew! Time for a little bit of sleep so I can bombard you with lots of new things tomorrow.

There are two correct answers to question 2 and I demand a refund if I choose the factually right one and it's deemed wrong by the trivia :C

Thank you Eri. Is it possible that I heard the name Dev before? In FelisFire I think. Welcome anyway! ^_^

Ty for the updates. Take all the time you need Babe, we will be here for you. <3
I am still having problem with moving melos and did not hear anyone has this problem.
Also those reports we made @ the bottom of page, hopefully those can be addressed too.
I am glad to hear we can view old scores. Hopefully crons will behave. :)
We don't have a mil GPs so we are glad... wait what happened? :P
