Premium!

collectable_goldgeode.gif

Quick update regarding the Premium Fixes thread. If your premium time went berserk after the downtime and you posted here, your request has been addressed!

Many people lost out on Premium Points, myself included, and unfortunately this is not something we can refund. :c I do apologize.

However, I have added a brand new pet to the Premium Outlet for a discounted price! -- a Tentbat Chiro.

And it looks quite happy to see you. :3
(Plumas, anyone?)

March's premium item should be released this weekend, so stay tuned!

If you are missing Silver Paws due to a DOWNTIME-related issue, please post here.
(Note: This is for things like highscore games, the art gallery, etc. Museum Collection issues will have a separate thread.)

Thank you!

I've seen a couple questions inquiring about the status of the double BP event, so I wanted to clarify that this is still on the agenda, we just want to get more accounts restored and accepted and stabilize other things before releasing this.

So, extra dough is still something you can look forward to!

Hooray!

Site Update

Goto News Post

collectable_mysteriouslightbox.gif

In late January, user #45350 quietly joined the ranks of newest Aywas members.
This user was one of many who, unfortunately, temporarily lost his account and had to wait patiently for it to be restored.

Yasu has been enduring the time-consuming task of recreating lost accounts one by one, and #45350 just got his restored and is back in his cozy, albeit sparse, little space on Aywas.

So, what's so remarkable about this user?

His name is LostNova, and he is our brand new programmer!

Yasu remains our head programmer, which means we're going to have 2 dedicated coders. LostNova's focus will be assisting Yasu (who will remain focused on fixes and complicated projects) and working on simple new features.

LostNova is very excited to work with us, so make sure he feels nice and welcome! I am writing up his first assignment now, which will be a new feature that has been requested for quite some time, but that's the only hint I'm giving away. *wink*

If you couldn't tell, this means really good things are on the horizon for our beloved site. :3
(Told you you'd be happy to see this!)

Pet Shop Update!

Pets

Goto News Post

store-npc-9.png


As some of you may have noticed, the Little Pet Shop of Horrors has received a new stock of pets! They're eager and awaiting new loving owners!

insi_ultraviolet.pnginsi_desertcream.pngreve_laceylove.png

In case you weren't aware, the Pet Shop is on a stock rotation schedule with the stock changing every 3 months. Due to the downtime, we got a bit off schedule so we're a month late in changing the stock. We don't want to get off schedule though, so we'll only be putting this new stock in for about 2 months. Because of that, the new stock of pets is discounted by 33%. The previous stock of pets is still in the pet shop to allow the accounts that were unable to play some time to get them. Both stocks will be in the shop until June, when both stocks will be permanently retired and a new stock will replace them. So get them while you can!

If you want to have the chance of getting a design of yours into the pet shop, go ahead and submit them to the Pet Coloration Submissions forum. Most of the submitted designs will be put into Adventure, but some random designs will be kept to go into the pet shop!

If your design is now in the pet shop please contact Kyu (#1010) for your free copy. That's right, if your design is accepted and put in the shop you get a free copy. That could save you a good amount of BP!

And when you want to wear your heart on your sleeve, activate the Declaration of Love.
This will unlock an achievement/forum title that says I love you. <3 in red!

Lovely Seasonal Shop!

Site Update

Goto News Post

loveletter.pngunus_beeloved.pngloveletter.png

The Seasonal Shop is now officially open!
Shop to your heart's content until March 16, 2013 at 11:59 p.m.! Love Letters will remain findable and sendable through this time as well, so make sure you're giving the Mailman Melo a workout!

Now that we've got the mood music set and the lights dim, lets go on a little stroll through the love-themed wares! Don't mind the petals strewn about on the ground (Dew thought he was being cute, but if someone slips he's in big trouble).

Let's start off with a smorgasbord of new edible items!

foodhunger_strawberrywaffles.pngfoodenergy_lovelimes.pngfoodhunger_iheartmacncheese.pngfoodenergy_cheesecake.pngfoodhunger_twopeasinapod.png

I am pleased to announce that this spread of culinary creations is not limited, as all five items above are permanent additions to the Aywas pantry. You'll find them stocking in shops around Ay and popping up in cooking like normal. (How precious are those two peas in a pod?!)

If you have a taste for rarer delicacies, you might be interested in the exclusive holiday foods we've cooked up for you this year!

foodenergy_eatyourheartoutcakepop.pngfoodenergy_lovebubbletea.pngfoodenergy_chocolatedippedstrawberry.png
foodenergy_cupidcupcakes.pngfoodenergy_lovelymacaroons.pngfoodenergy_fizzyheartsoda.png

These should quench your thirst for love-soaked foods!
If not, we have something a little different that might wet your whistle.

collectable_dessertwardrobe.png

The Dessert Wardrobe contains 10 food-themed wearable clothing items for your HA!
Inspired by Strawberry and Chocolate parfaits, here's a preview of the sets included:

chocolateparfait.pngstrawberryparfait.png
clothing_chocolateparfaitvest.pngclothing_chocolateparfaitshirt.pngclothing_chocoberry.pngclothing_strawberryparfaittights.pngclothing_strawberryparfaithat.png

However, if you're not taken with edible clothes and aren't big on frilly romance, you might want to move our Gloomy Heart Wardrobe into your account instead.

collectable_gloomyheartwardrobe.png

This wardrobe contains a whopping 15 items from clothing to eyes, hair, and holdables.
Here is a preview of almost all items included:

darkromanceg.pngdarkromancem.png
clothing_darkromancekey.pngclothing_darkromanceshirt.pngclothing_darkromanceheart.pngclothing_darkromancegown.pngclothing_darkromancepearls.png

With our tummies full and HAs decked out, lets move onto the pets!

We all know that love is a battle field, so don't send your pet out into the wilderness without the proper equipment.

weapon_heartspade.pngweapon_antiqueroseshield.pngweapon_cupidsanklewings.png

All dashing heroes need fancy weaponry! The above items offer bonuses in power, toughness, and speed, respectively.

If your valiant Fido is in need of a makeover, consider one of our new transforming potions!

magic_twocherrieselixir.pngmagic_truelovepotion.pngmagic_lovebrew.png

In this lineup we have the Two Cherries Elixir (containing 5 uncommon pets), a bright red True Love Potion (containing 3 hybrids), and a classic Love Brew (containing 5 exclusive pets).
Using any of these potions on your active pet will turn it into a random coloration from the pool inside. As a teaser, here's one pet from each potion:

cerby_headsoverheels.pnginari_lovestitch.pngtordoka_trinket.png

Check the Aywapedia for full details!
The pets contained within these potions are NOT available in the shop; they are exclusive to the potions.

Want to treat your pet to a pet?

fauna_puppylove.png

The new Puppy Love fauna is a great gift for pets and friends alike!

We are offering two other collectables to put on your lair shelf (since you'll probably end up with quite the mess on your hands if you leave them within reach of your Melos or Lepus).

collectable_loveligervionplush.pngcollectable_crazyinlovecandles.png

The Love Liger Vion Plush and Crazy in Love Candles do not have a function beyond existing for your enjoyment and collections. :3

In honor of the love fest holiday, we are bringing back two very popular items that do have pretty cool uses, though!

collectable_bookofrings.png

The Love Story add-on has returned by pet demand! Apparently this is a beloved bedtime story.
As a refresher, this is a breeding add-on compatible with MBC, LBC, BC, and HBC breedings and tells your artist to cute-ify the offspring with Valentine's Day colors.

magic_lovepotion9.gif
Love Potion #9 has returned once more with our favorite, old alt loves, but its formula has been spruced up to bring us two brand new alt line sets!

Meet your new alt V-Day Linorm and Chromo!

Linorm_Alt_Lines_200.pngChromo_Alt_Lines_200.png

(Click the images above to download the corresponding PSDs.)
Remember, Love Potion #9 allows up to 50% edits, so have fun!

If you're giddy with all this goodness, you might want to spare a few points on the next item on our list.

collectable_heartbubblebath.png

By using Heart Bubble Bath from your inventory, you will unlock an achievement/forum title that says "Bubbling with love!" in pink. c:

And, finally, we round out our items with a classic holiday goodie bag!

collectable_lovegoodiebag.png

The Love Goodie Bag contains a Love Brew potion, a collectable Red Carnation, 1000 BP, and one of three random edible treats:

foodhunger_decadentromancecake.pngfoodhunger_lavacake.pngfoodenergy_raspberrytruffle.png

The Red Carnation as well as these three food items are exclusive to the bag, but you can purchase the Love Brew separately in the shop.

Now it's time for the red carpet roll out of pets!
The Seasonal Shop is stocking 18 love-themed pets for your collections.
Here's a preview of the lineup you'll find inside!

reve_mysteriousmistress.pngbumble_smitten.pngsuune_vintagehearts.png

Need some help with your pet collecting?
Stop by the Trash for Treasure shop to trade in some of your TP for a Romantic Surprise!

magic_romanticsurprise.png

This box is filled with all 18 pets from the shop, so using it on your active pet will transform it into a random Seasonal Shop color!

magic_breedablepotion.gifring.gifmagic_breedablepotion.gif

On the last day of the Seasonal Shop, we will be having a finale with giveaways and 24-hour stock of a couple coveted items! (Hint: take a look at last year's event!) You've been warned, so plan your spending accordingly!

An announcement on the Lovegram Box is coming up next. <3
I personally tested everything being released, but let me know if you encounter any issues. c:

Phew!
Happy very belated Valentine's Day!
