Finned Day

Finned Day
Today, March 2nd, is Finned Day! This day is brought to you by Mrs. Morris.
Ready to start collecting sand dollars?
You'll be using them to buy special finned pets in the Seasonal Shop. I'd suggest seeking them in the West River and the East River in the usual fashions... just makes sense, ya know?

Reve deadline
Pets
I love white chocolate C:
It's that time again, folks! The deadline for free old line-art Reve switches closes a little under 24hrs from now - that's tonight, March the 1st, 11:59:59pm. I added on an extra day since February is a bit of a funny ol' month.
New and old members alike may wish to toddle on over to this thread to view my collection of retired line-arts. If you see anything you fancy (take care to note some deadlines have already passed) and own the colouration in question, don't hestitate to send me a PM with the species name(s) and ID number(s) listed clearly. You might just save yourself some Dawn Crystals.
As an additional note, if you own a default Arctic Wind Linorm and prefer it on the original line-art, you may request away until March the 22nd.
Now, what are you waiting for? :D Chop chop!

VPL Winner!
Contests
the winner of the VPL Edit Contest is Grand Antiscient (#7825)! Antiscient won a Hybrid Custom Crystal.
CPVR said:
"I chose Antiscient's entry because I believe it fits the theme of Virtualpetlist.com - as, when people throw things at us, our mascot battles back with its tongue - and also, as we've been around for so long, our community has struggled with various different things. The point is, don't ever give up, and always battle for your dreams."
Congrats Anti! I'll also be awarding 10 GP (upped it) to other good entries on the thread. :)

Fossilized Egg
Items
The constant earthquakes in the fissures unearthed fifteen eggs...
There don't seem to be any more, but maybe another large earthquake in that region will jog more from the depths. There certainly are many of them.
The lava and warmth in that area seems to have had an effect on them. If you put your hand to the shell, something's moving around inside.
Inside is a Serrul, a new rare genus.
Ready to hatch your Serrul? Download the PSD from the custom only thread and make your design, then take your egg to the Custom Pet page to upload it!
Hmm, I wonder when the next big earthquake will be?
Can you guess what this genus was named after? (prize: egg)

The number of the day is...
Rules
...42.
Where it may be the answer to life, the universe, and everything, it isn't the reason this number is important. 42 refers to the number of users that will be receiving refunds of their coins/fertility potions and, in some cases, their breeding canceled because they didn't read the rules (or made an error in submitting a breeding). It took me several hours going through every single page of the queue searching out mistakes made on current breedings.
Please take your time to review the descriptions on each coin as you use it (as well as the potion) BEFORE you submit the breeding! We have a breeding and species tutorial to reference off of for a reason, if you don't know what 'common species' is and whatnot. Please, please remember to do so, else your breeding will most likely sit and have to wait to be fixed later on. It only serves in backing up the system more.
I'll sift through again sometime in the near future, but for now I'm going to toss the refunded items to people that need them. If by tomorrow you have not received a refund on an outstanding breeding that you know is due for cancellation (and you realized your mistake) PM me tomorrow with the IDs in the breeding, coin used, and when you submitted it, along with what you did wrong.
Another small addition; whereas Mauri (#1010) is amazing at helping out in the breeding sector like a superhero sidekick, she is not the one to go to with pertinent breeding-related questions. She normally cannot give you answers, so please direct all queries to me, not her! If I don't respond outright, too, please give me a poke. I get about a page of messages per day in my Aywas inbox, and I don't mean to leave anyone out. :]

These weird eggs are showing up in the Fissures...
Maybe you should find one... they haven't shown up before, so why would they now?
Don't forget to check the news post below to see some cool new features we added.
