The first being that all offspring have been completed and will be uploaded tonight. Breedings from now on will go back to being finished in a timely manner was they were before. I also have someone who will be helping me with a few of them when i'm either out of town or too many get submitted at once.
Customs will also be uploaded by the end of the day as well. Please remember that the end of my day though is around 3am so you may have to wait until you log in tomorrow. The only people who won't receive eggs tonight are the very few last hybrid breedings that were submitted.
I'd also like to ask everyone who was interested in helping with the vyne recolors to submit their last entries in as I will be closing the thread Thursday night and will commission my pet coloration team to finish up the last final recolors. The thread can be found here for those who missed it before.
Lastly, I spent most of the morning supervising my insurance adjuster and cleaning crew from a small fire the other day and was able to work on a short research project. I'd like you all to take a look at my thread A Day in the Life of a Complete n00b. Let me know your reaction and opinion on the information provided. Feel free to make suggestions but please keep in mind that not all suggestions are doable and even though we can't respond to everyone that doesn't mean we haven't read what you had to say and took it into consideration. I obviously couldn't get the full effect of being a true new player to the site, so let me know how it was for you if you just joined recently.
Also an update on how Hash Brownies currently work... with the way v2 was coded, hash brownies had to be recoded as well. In v2, you could have unlimited energy for 10 minutes to explore as much as you wanted. In v2, everytime you explore, it removes 1 hunger instead of energy. Therefore your exploring energy remains the same, but you still have to pay the price of your attacks with your energy as normal. This will help you get rid of some of those unwanted hunger items and save your precious energy items. This may or may not change in the near future, but we will let you know when a final decision has been made. Just a heads up.

TOS Update
Pets
USD Sales and Cross-Site Trading
Unless expressly allowed by Aywas administration, users may not sell any accounts, pets, items, currency or any other property of Aywas.com for real life money, included but not limited to United States Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euros, Gift Cards such as Visa Giftcard, Mastercard, Amazon Gift Card, etc. Aywas administration allows users their to trade their Aywas pets, items, and currency for any pets, items and currency on other sites, providing said site also allows reciprocal trading. Users may sell original artwork, graphics, coding, writing, etc. for real life currencies provided they do not contain any official Aywas artwork.
What changed:
- Aywas no longer permits users to trade for gift cards
- Aywas no longer permits users to trade for real life items
While this may be an inconvenience for you, it's ultimately in the best interest of the site as it puts less stress on the administrators to carry out following through on these purchases, which are ultimately out of our hands.

Gardening Update
Pets
Bounties have been increased to 5 BP per percentile below 33% to increase competition between waterers -- well, the poor ones. (Nice job to those who have been watering other people's plants. That's the spirit.)
Don't forget to refill your cans once a day per pet at Spenser at the river. (The one across the bridge that is near Ay Town. When I say across, I mean you have to get past it.)
We updated the energy values for the energy fruits.
| Item | Energy |
Fryberries | 50 |
Bamboo Shoots | 40 |
Regal Tulip Cup | 40 |
Camberry | 25 |
Lislis Berry | 15 |
Blood Tulip Cup | 15 |
Acai Berry | 10 |
Spotted Aloe | 10 |
Fanged Apple | 10 |
Good luck.

Gardening Explained
Pets
All dead plants have been magically revived.
Are you wondering why would someone water your pot for free?
If you water someone's plant once its life bar is red, you will get 1 BP for each percentile below 33% that you save it at.
If you water your own plant when it is in red, your pot's bounty goes up by 1. (Meaning each percentile below 33% will now give the waterer 2 BP instead of 1 BP, and so forth.)
Want to make some BP? Just go to the Top Garden Bounties page and save some plants from death. (Obviously there will be no plants there since I just revived them all).
What happens if my plant dies? You lose your pot with it, and your plant will go to plant heaven.
What happens if my plant survives? Once it is matured, you will be able to harvest it. You may then re-use your pot!
What happens if I let my plant get into the red zone?
Every time your plant drops below 25%, its potential yield will go down by 1. (Yield will not go below 1... unless your plant dies, of course.)
How do I refill my watering cans?
Go visit Spenser at the river across The Bridge.
Throughout the day, We will begin putting seeds, pots, and watering cans at the Free Items shop (Donation Box) starting at 1 PM AST.

Gardening!

Guess what's new and under "Play!"
Here's a plant that God murdered because he didn't use enough water :(
Anyway, the fruits/plants you can harvest are pretty awesome so you don't want your things to die.
Epsilon is stocking these in his brand new gardening store! And you can find some pails in the GP Shop.
PS: Go to my profile. If you see my plants with a GREEN or RED bar, WATER THEM!!!! :(
