"All right, way to go!" Rowan grinned enthusiastically. "I hope you all had fun! I know pulling up flowers all day can't be the most exciting thing, but it means a great deal to me that you're willing to go through all of that for the sake of our wedding. Don't tire yourselves out too much, okay?"
Energized by her team's victory, Rowan turned and walked off to see if she can send some of those good vibes over to Minerva.
Congratulations to Rowan's Team for winning the first challenge! Both teams will now be able to take a short break until the next challenge, which will begin at 6:30 AM AST on April 11th! Feel free to rest, strategize with your team, or return to your usual Aywas activities until then!
For those who may be worried, the Snapdragon will not be used as the shop currency this year, so feel free to throw them all into the challenges without worrying about holding onto anything!

Snapdragon Ceremony: Challenge 1 Begins
Events
"Well, it seems that you all have chosen whose team you're on. So then, how about we start the first challenge in Roweddin--" Rowan began, but was promptly interrupted by Minerva.
"The Snapdragon Ceremony - we'll start the first challenge of the Snapdragon Ceremony," Minerva finished, her expression making it clear that she found Rowan's choice of name to be too embarrassing for her to hear aloud again.
Rowan simply giggled. It seems that MInerva speaking up has put her in a good mood, despite the fact she had cut her off. "Right, for the first challenge in the Snapdragon Seremony, we'll need help setting up the venue. Now, Snapdragon are quite popular around this point in the year, so we should be able to bribe some shops with them to help furnish it." she explained.
"We'll probably need a few different colors depending on the shopkeeper, but--wait, Rowan, did you just pronounce ceremony with an 's'?" Minerva started off normally before casting a suspecting gaze at her partner.
"Hm?" Rowan responded innocently, acting as if she had no idea what Minerva was talking about.
The challenges for this event will require you to collect different colors of Snapdragon. They will be available in pink, orange, green, blue, white, yellow, red, and purple. Your team leader, Rowan or Minerva, will tell you which color you will need to turn in. Be sure to work together and try to overcome the opposing team!
At this time, you can take Satin Sheet and Stiletto items and convert them to Snapdragon via Alchemy, as they will hold no importance in future events.
You will have until 6:30 PM AST on April 10th to accumulate points for your team for this challenge.

Snapdragon Ceremony: Prologue
Events
With the coming of spring, it seems that the Snapdragon have started to bloom! The residents of Aywas seem to be itching to go pick them to create beautiful dyes and floral arrangements, but it seems that Rowan has something else in mind. With a confused Minerva in tow, Rowan grins in a way that seems to say she has a plan brewing...
"Hello! The weather is so nice right now, isn't it?" Rowan asked cheerfully - almost too cheerfully. "It's almost perfect for a grand event... You know, perhaps something like... a wedding?"
"We don't have anything ready for a wedding," Minerva responded, her tone significantly softer when speaking to Rowan than how many residents are accustomed to her speaking towards them.
"Right, right... That's why we're going to have an epic battle! A battle to create the perfect wedding," Rowan explained, nodding sagely.
"We're--wait, what?" Minerva seemed to be taken by surprise by the sudden declaration.
"It shall be me against you, Minerva! We will see who can create the perfect wedding!" Rowan continued on, making gestures grand enough that it might seem like she was about to perform some type of spell.
"Rowa--"
"Come now, residents of Aywas! Choose between us and help one of us create the perfect wedding - this event shall be called... Rowedding and Minervows!" Rowan concluded, becoming increasingly more enthused the longer she spoke.
"We're not calling it that," Minerva replied flatly.
Rowan and Minerva need your help to create their perfect wedding! However, it seems that Rowan may have an ulterior motive and is making a game out of it. If you're up for the challenge, choose one of the ladies to rally behind for the Snapdragon Ceremony! You will have until 11:59 PM AST on April 6th to sign up to be on a team. Choose wisely, as you will not be able to switch teams for the duration of the event.

Small Jeweled Update
Pets
I just noticed that the Melo lines are backwards - this has been fixed, and the PSD immediately reflects the change, while the PNG will likely cling to the old version of the image for a little while (it's a cache thing).
If you have made a pet on these lines and I have not PMed you, please get into contact with me because this technically renders the pet unbreedable to other oldline Melos.
Again, sorry for the mix up and the confusion this may have caused anyone.

What..???
Random Silliness
What's this? How curious! It seems one of the gargoyle's on Minerva's house fell into my paint set and came to life!
My painting of her garden is ruined, but now we have a new friend to play with!
--
The Gradient Gargoyle is stocking for 1 BP in the BP Shop!
(If you attempt to barter and get an offer of 0 BP it will still take 1 BP.)
A few notes:
This pet cannot be made as a custom
This pet can be recolored using a Recolor Potion
This pet can breed to others on the same lineart using Metal breeding coins *
This pet can be bred to pets on different linearts following the usual guidelines of those coins, following "pet" rules
This pet can only breed with other Item genera pets that do not share it's lineart if the coin supports 2 different genera in the pairing, eg Breeding Coins
* unless edits have been added to a Gen2+ with a breeding add-on, at which point non-metal coins would be required
You can find these rules, and get the PSD, on a KB page made especially for this site pet.
Be quick! The Gradient Gargoyle will only be stocking for the next 48 hours - until 11:59pm April 3rd!
(For those wondering this is a small nod to April Fools, but like many countires and companies we chose not to observe it on the 1st out of respect for the serious situation the world is in at this moment. We hope you enjoy this silly, but cute, pet.)

Email and Terms of Service Update
Site Update
Good afternoon, one and all!
After some small issues with our email system, we have changed and consolidated all email enquiries to one address:

"Mail should be reserved for legal inquiries, DCMA, log-in issues, and ban contentions" and that you should "PM a staff-person if you have a private / personal issue (for example, a transaction gone bad, potential copyright problem, or you need to report a person or incident)."
Due to the Terms of Service referencing to emails in several places, they have been updated with the new email address.
No other changes have been made to the content of the Terms of Service.
We're working to find all references to the old emails across the site, so if there's one we've missed and it still hasn't changed in 48 hours please ping me in the news comments to let me know.

Sketch Breeding Coin Annoucment
Kandria (#293) here! Just a bit of a public service announcement for issues I'm seeing with Sketch Coins/Add-ons
I've had the current artists updated View Here !
If you have a ticket please make sure you update it to current artists, right now as of this post I know there are only a few active artists. Keep an eye out on the list of artists as we may be adding some soon!
If you are using a Sketch Ticket make sure you have 3 active artists listed, or it will be skipped until you meet the rules.
- If you are not happy with the current artists, I would suggest making your breeding "will have predictions" until you find a prediction artist, or, more join the team, or move to a more restrictive ticket (like Artist ticket).
- If you are not happy with current artists, remember you can also list 2 you wish to exclude, but I suggest what is said above about ticking will have predictions as well with this.
-Ticking the box will keep your place in line when you untick it later, and if you bred to someone else's pet, save you having to re-breed, like would happen if breeding is canceled.
Above all, I want to stress any breaking of the ticketing or excluding rules, will lead to your breeding being skipped. So please regularly review the active artists and your breedings to make sure this doesn't happen!
Thank you! Please feel free to PM me(Kandria #293) with any questions in regards to this as well!
