Aaaaand, we're done :)
Aywas will be undergoing some database maintenance tonight at 2:00 A.M.
We are not sure how long it'll take but hopefully not too long, we're going to be building some indexes :)
You can always follow progress at the Aywas Tumblr.

Welcome to July!
Site Update
Let's kick off the new month with a burst of sparkling GP Shop pets!
And blast over to the BP Shop for more shiny pets!
If you colored one of these lovely pets, please contact Visark (#185) for your payment!
Make sure to send the PSDs for these pets in to [email protected] right away! Or I will make firecrackers out of your crayons.
The Essence of July 2013 is based on the beautiful, vibrant Larkspur and will transform your pet into one of the July 2013 monthly pets!
The premium monthly item is something you guys have requested and will be ready in a few days!
*suspenseful*
Our monthly Lunaris will be flying in after the rainy Ay skies subside! I will let you know when it has arrived for our July babies.
The new monthly contests have been announced!
August Monthly Pets - BP Shop: Enter
August Monthly Pets - GP Shop: Enter
August Monthly Customs: Enter
Theme: Picnics!
Event Land!
After the Fairy and Mad Science festivities wrap up this month, we have a couple other things to look forward to. n_n
Loverly (#426) has a sweet Slashbot surprise planned for everyone, which will be kicking off on July 7th!
We also have a special new feature planned to open up on July 30th, courtesy of Helmy (#1401) and a Slashbot!
Reminders!
The Nova items have returned to the BP/GP Shops and will remain there for July and August, then will cycle back into the Premium Outlet for the month of September.
The Naulit is our Raw pet until July 15th!
Breeding Season will be coming up later this month, where we will introduce two new hybrids!
Coding Corner
We have a shiny new server! Of course, there are some temporary blips that come along with it, but we're pushing through those. :3 And I've found that .com doesn't love me as much as I thought. *still stuck on .org*
We are continuing to thoroughly tackle Adventure and Battling, and from what we've seen so far, I think you guys will like how his brain works. *wink*
Loscil is still dedicating a lot of her time to help Aywas become that much more enjoyable and efficient to use (and I think it's unanimous that we're loving her work).
Yasu has been primarily dealing with the server shenanigans and running things behind the scenes as usual. <3
We have a lot in store for you this month so you'll get to see my face in the news a lot. c: Cheers!

Making a bold return!
Site Update
Remember these? Well... they're baaaaack! You can find Half a Lesser Breeding Coin in the GP shop again, for about half the price of an LBC. For those that want just one baby, this is extremely helpful, but it comes at a compromise.
As of this newspost, all HLBCs submitted must have predicts. I repeat, any submitted HLBCs from hereon out must have predicts. Those that are already in queue prior to this newspost will be handled by staff artists, but we will require users of these coins now to submit their own babies.
We also removed the predict kickback for these since these are now fully predict-only coins. These are also not compatible with fertility potions, but are compatible with every other LBC-potential add-ons that work with predicts.
We feel that this is a good exchange for those that wanted them back, but it won't swamp our LBC artists any. It's also a fair price that it won't break your wallets when you want just one baby out of your breeding!
Hope everyone enjoys seeing them back, I know I do! :)
