Hi guys, I have some updates for the Trash Dump feature, where you can dump unwanted items in exchange for the Trash for Treasure Shop currency.
First of all, the dump limit has been raised from 50 items a day to 100 items a day for all members. Premium members no longer have a limit and can dump an unlimited amount of items a day. This is a feature that has been suggested on the suggestions forum and now implemented. :)
We have also enabled the ability to dump charged items, as you requested.
Second, I want you to know that there will be a
Trash Dump Sale!!
6:00 PM, April 23
12:00 AM, April 24
6:00 AM, April 24
At those times, Spense will restock some very, very expensive items in small quantities. We're talking items like these:
Trash for Treasure, indeed!
There will be a small handful of many different rare items stocking during each of those restock times. We are giving you a little over a week to prepare for this and dump all those unwanted items.
Enjoy the higher dump limit!
Lastly:
Congratulations

How often...
Site Update
Hey guys! I want to gauge how often you want certain things updated. Sorry I can't include things like features or coded stuff, because that isn't something we can control effectively, whereas these are ones we can get on a reliable basis.
So yeah enjoy all the polls XD

Pardon our dust!
Site Update
Hey all, this is a follow-up to the newspost from Slash a few posts down, regarding the new upgrade to the breeding panel and the revamp of the standing stones, as well as predict submissions.
Currently, predict payout is broken (as some people have found out) in that you won't get the compensation right now for submitting predicts. Because of that, we're going to wait to accept any more until the payout is fixed. If you do submit predicts, please refer to this thread to see what the queue is up to in terms of date. If your breeding has already been assigned, chances are your predicts will not be used.
On another note, since people have been asking about submitting predicts on some types of breedings:
- Eggnog: Submit 2 predicts for your end of the eggnog breeding. In the case where you want to work with the other person that is to be receiving a baby as well, they can submit two as well; if not, their end will be done by an artist. If it is a hybrid breeding, make two hybrid predicts, and if it's any other combination of pets, make one predict for each species/base.
- EBC: Submit 2 predicts, 1 'normal' and one 'evil'. Evil is to the discretion of the submitter, and normal is obviously just that -- what any other baby would be produced from that breeding. If it is a hybrid breeding, 2 hybrid predicts are required, and if it is any other combination of pets, make one predict for each species/base.
- RBC: I decided that if people want to submit predicts for these, fine. You must submit 3 predicts, 1 of which is a mutant/any weird and freaky combo you want, 1 of which is a 'normal' baby, and 1 of which is an alternate 'normal' baby. By this, I mean if you have a Melo x a Soli, for example, this makes a hybrid; make one baby that is a potential hybrid, one baby that is either a Melo or a Soli, and one baby that is a freaky screwed-up mutant. If something like Vyne x Orimi, make 1 mutant, 1 normal Vyne, and 1 normal Orimi. RBC almost always makes mutants, but you do have a small chance of one of your 'normal' babies being born as well. All RBC Hybrids must be editless as well.
As soon as I can go through predicts, I will be rejecting all ones that don't fit the correct rules above (which are subject to change, but that's about what I have decided for now).
Another thing, if you accidentally receive 'twins'/duplicate babies, be sure to email me in order to remove the second baby (and if you used Rosettas, to refund you one). There's a glitch in the panel that if I accidentally click twice on the submit box for babies, it duplicates them. What I do is just change the second offspring into a random common pet and it doesn't show up as a baby from the parents in question.
There is also a glitch where parents, upon receiving eggs, only show as the first parent x the first parent. Don't worry, it's just a coding typo; the babies reflect that it's parent 1 x parent 2 in the lineage.
If you get a cancellation of your breeding as well, it's because you either were due one in the past (and I already refunded you) and now I have the power to actually cancel them (yay!) or you already received the eggs because I uploaded via the old panel and I need to have it reflect in the new panel (which is only about 20 breedings, don't freak out guys. You do have your babies, I'm not canceling anything that shouldn't be!).
I think that's it... remember, please start emailing me questions and concerns (as my poor PM box is back to 5 pages already and I just cleaned it out a week ago... erp) because emailing is easier for me to keep track of. Email me at [email protected] if you need to ask about any of the above or have any further problems.
The new breeding panel is shiny and has a beautiful 'new car' smell, but it's glitchy right now, and I can't wait until the few little things are fixed before I can use it. Guaranteed, if you knew what upgrades I got, you'd be facehugging the computer in glee. It's going to make things much faster when we start using it regularly.

Featured Character
Pets
Show us your best characters!
You create characters for your pets, don't you? Where you write about them on their profile - something more interesting than a simple form-based bio, hopefully with pictures and fun facts! Check out my pet Shadow for instance.
Let's have a contest. Create a fun profile for one of your pets (though you can enter as many times as you want)! Try to make it as interesting as possible - edit the profile CSS coding so it looks cooler, add some fun facts and details about the character, include some drawings, etc.
One winner will get a Metal Breeding Pendant for their efforts, along with a Silver Custom Crystal to make their pet as close to their vision as possible.
Three runner-ups will get a Gold Custom Item (I say item because it can be crystal, coin, or orb) and one year of Aywas Premium.
Ready to extend those creative muscles? Post your submissions on this thread!
Contest ends 4/18/2011.

Breeding Updates
Site Update
So, before I die of sleep exhaustion, I have a few breeding system changes to introduce you to.
If you click on the Standing Stones tab, you'll notice that it got a minor makeover. Most important is the Breeding Requests area.
Here, you can see all of your breedings from oldest to newest. More important, though, you can click on Review Breeding.
If you click on Review Breeding, you will be taken to a page where you can submit breeding predicts for the breeding admins to review and accept or reject. If it's a Breeding Coin, Breeding Pendant, Holiday Breeding Coin, or Egg Nog, you must pay the feature a BC Candy to upload a max of four predicts. If it's any other coin, you can upload a max of four predicts for free. A breeding admin will select an appropriate amount of offsprings from your predicts to send to you as eggs.
You can submit predicts for any breeding, including ones that have been sitting there for a while. And you know what makes submitting predictions the best?
If you are using a coin that does not require a BC Candy, and if you submit predicts and your predicts are accepted, you will receive a kick-back of 3 GP as a thank you from the breeding team for using predicts. If you are using a BP Shop coin, such as the MBC, MBP, Derp BC, or HLBC, you will receive a kick-back of 300,000 BP as a thank you from the breeding team for using predicts.
So, if you could use the new integrated method instead of the thread, that would be best. If your predictions are deemed unsatisfactory, they will be rejected by a breeding admin with a note on how to fix them. Feel free to submit until they are acceptable.
While you don't see this next part, the breeding panel was also issued a major overhaul making it much smoother to administrate breedings. Hopefully they will go faster now.
