Artist Spotlight
Site Update
With the return of the Welcome Back page, we've decided to convert the mostly unused User Spotlight into an Artist Spotlight, as has been suggested a few times. We hope to be able to spotlight lots of different artists, especially any new artists who've appeared on the Aywas radar!
But to do so, we need your help! Please stop by the Artist Spotlight Suggestion to nominate anyone you see who you think deserves a little recognition for their work. Self-nominations are okay too!
Enjoy our current spotlighted user, Liv (#714). Congratulations on being the first artist spotlight!

FEED THE BEAST!
Contests



*Slowly appears and glances around*
Please excuse me for taking over a news post, but... I'm quite hungry.
And you may be asking yourself, why does that concern me? Well, you've hoarded all of my food and there's none left for me! *Droops ears*
So if you would kindly trot on over to my raffle threads in the event forum, I'm hosting an appetizer and a big feast. In exchange for feeding me and replenishing my food stores so I can go back into hibernation, I may reward you with something in return!
*Stomach grumbles and gurgles*

I've been hibernating for years... so don't waste time! My stomach isn't very patient so the raffles will only be open until November 1st 11:59:59 PM AST.
Oh and I've been tasked with announcing one other little tidbit. Apparently you have a new arrival in the form of a Alternate Lined Finx!

You had better hurry - I might just eat THAT as an appetizer instead...
Be sure to look at the news posts below this!

PayPal issues fixed, and BALLOONS!!
Site Update
Our PayPal script has been fixed! It's working properly again :)
You jingle the balloon around. There's something inside...
Balloons have floated their way into the GP Shop! Each balloon opens up into a random item. The Blue Balloon opens into a random item of any rarity, the Gold Balloon opens into a random item rarity 8+, and the Silver Balloon opens into a random item rarity AD.
The prices were based on their counterparts, the Ghost Chocolates and Lotus Eggs, so hopefully they're suitable!
There are some exclusions from the item pool that these draw upon. First, they cannot yield a Slashbot, Platinum Breeding Pendant, Lesser Breeding Pendant, Favor From Tak, or Santa's Bag. They also don't yield non-items from the Salon (like non-equip hairs) or private user items with specific ownership. Everything else is fair game, though!
To celebrate the balloons and fixing the finicky PayPal script, you'll get a bonus balloon with every GP Purchase! $10.00 yields a Blue, $20.00 yields a Gold, and $30.00 yields a Silver. This offer is valid for one week!
Here's a thread for posting Ballon results!

Adventure Updates
Site Update
Some updates on the adventure front!
- EXP Tweak: Monsters give you 60% more EXP than they did before.
- HP Nerf: Monsters have 40% less HP than they did before.
- Loot Drops: Monsters have a 30% chance of dropping loot when you kill them.
- Keys: Treasure Chest Keys now drop in all regions.
- Attack Potion, Toughness Potion, Pinwheel Candy, and Hunger Stone properly affect adventure stats.
- Items can be removed from Picnic Baskets.
- Book of Regeneration and Aynip no longer call last year's seasonal pets in the Spooky Forest.



Artist Call!
Loscil is looking for a volunteer artist to skin one of her new music-related flash games. If you'd like to volunteer, drop her a message!

Uh oh! Our PayPal script seems to be acting up a bit, so if you buy some and it doesn't show up in a timely manner, never fear. It'll be fixed as soon as our programmer comes online!
