Hey guys! I just have a quick update on Premium Trophies.
Premium Trophies are awarded when you upgrade your account for any length of time and are permanent. These are automatically issued when you upgrade, so most people won't have any problem, but a few premium accounts are missing their corresponding trophies. I'm going to be manually adding these, so please post here if your trophy wasn't awarded. Thank you!

Breedings
I am hoping to throw money at one of my programmers tonight to make an upgrade to the breeding script so artists can upload babies directly. This should remove most of the uploading wait problem.
Also note that the current official waiting time is this: in breedings where the parents have identical linearts, the wait time is a few hours to a few days. In breedings where the parents have different linearts, the wait time can be a month or more.
Obviously, the upgrade should help fix that, but as of this press release that is the waiting time.
Games
A friend of mine is really getting into coding games (like other sites have, flash games and so forth) and might make us a whole bunch during the summer. I invite you to go to the Suggestions board and list some of your favorite flash games and how they work, as well as a way to "Aywa-fy" them. Think in terms of using Aywas graphics, aywas pets, aywas items, aywas backgrounds, etc. If you want to design the art for the flash game you are welcome to do so. We might buy it from you!
Explore
Would you prefer moving a miniature version of your pet across a map when exploring, or you do prefer the current version? (where the pet encounters items/other pets on the current images)
Or can you imagine Explore in a different way? We're playing with how explore is set up in the recode and now is a good time to make suggestions regarding playability and making it more fun.

A new completely arbitrary line of 300 or more questions in a row has been established. This means that there are two Orimi left for this contest. Check the high scores of Math Count to keep track of scoring.

Orimi
Pets

Suntipped Orimi
Here's another Ara-species preview. This species is common so you can make customs of them with Blue, Candy Cane, and Gold Custom Orbs.
Want a chance at owning this limited Orimi before Ara is released?
Be one of the first ten to score 500 or more on Math Count!
(This means 500 questions in a row, by the way)
Screenshot your winning score game screen for good measure.

Xaocs, Upgrades, and Dragon Vynes!
Pets
Apparently contests are my new on-site obsession, haha.
First off! Xaoc contest results. I couldn't pick one winner because they were all so awesome so i've narrowed the list down to six and need your help with choosing. Use the poll below and vote for xaoc 1-6 according to which custom you'd like to see made on site. Don't forget that the theme was "Green" and we have everything from the color, to toxic, to green with envy, going green, to nature!






I'm also currently hosting 2 out of pocket contests!
The first being an Upgrade Raffle found under User-Held Contests and Giveaways. You purchase tickets with dobermans and chaklit milks (i'm predictable eh?) in hopes of winning the grand prizes of a forever upgrade. The last day to purchase a ticket for you or a friend will be on April 17th so hurry up and hop on over and snag a few before time's up.
The second contest going on is a Creative Writing Contest that i've listed under Events and can be found here! Users need to create a short story between 700 and 2000 words about the interaction between these three custom dragon vynes.

Visit the thread to find out more details about dates and prizes. This contest will be judged by users 738, 1007, 664, 457, 295, and 17. I will not be judging this contest, i'm just paying for it ;o haha.
Anyways off to do more things fff.

Reminders
Pets
1. You cannot "trial period" an account merge. You're either moving in together, or not moving in together. You cannot keep a second account as a "side account" in case the merge fails or you two don't get along. Sell or ban it. If something happens and the account merge breaks up, one user will have to register a new account.
2. BCs are going out of the GP shop on midnight on the 9th so you have a little over 24 hours to get them now.

Contest Judges and April Design
Pets
I've opened a thread for users to fill out a small form in order to be eligible to help judge contests in the future. The form is found here and this thread will always be unlocked. Unless of course the whole site applies and we have to temporarily close it or something.
If you're asked to participate in judging a contest you will be contacted by the admin in charge of the contest before the contest is announced. You're more than welcome to accept or deny the position because once you agree to help judge you're not allowed to enter said contest and there is no compensation for your help except a thank you from the staff and users.
Other judging rules are stated on that thread. Judges for each contest will be announced along with the contest news post and will also be listed on the contest thread. Not every contest will have a panel of judges.
So speaking of contests, i've also started the April 2010 Custom Design Contest. There is no exact theme this month, but your design must be of an Ara species. Other rules on the contest as well as the link to the .psd files are posted on the thread. Your judges this month are myself along with users 49, 429, 568, and 129. So good luck to everyone who would like to enter!
There is one other news post below this, please make sure you've read it!
