Countdown
Pets
until blast off!
You'll see it on the top of every page now. That's how long you have to wait until this obnoxious lag goes away because everything will be 100% recoded from the ground up. =)
Not to mention when we have the new base Aywas finished, we'll be adding tons of new features to every city in the Explore map (oops, did I spoil a surprise? :) ) like nobody's business. Huzzah!

Stockings 2
Pets
Don't use stockings to send junk items and spam (eg: "asdasada") to someone. In addition, don't use stockings to send hurtful messages.
Is your stocking contribution meant to make the person happy? Yes? Good, then you're fine. But looking through the records and seeing examples of the above is quite the holiday season killer.

Stockings
Pets
You can now shove items and associated notes in people's stockings. The stockings are on their profile.
I don't have a stocking image at the moment because I haven't gone through Xmas items, but I did take the time to draw this beautiful illustration just for you. I'm sure you'll see it in the Louvre pretty soon.
You can open your stocking on Dec 25.

Winter Season
Pets
As we move toward the winter season, I'll briefly touch down on a few of the festivities that will be coming (aside from Aywas v2!).
These will be floating around every 15 minutes. They're like pumpkins - claim them to spend in the Seasonal Shop when it opens a week before Xmas!
this is the "rare" gift bag. You might find them floating around the site, or in the Advent Calender (don't forget to go every day of December!)
This is the "Super rare" gift bag. Methinks it has something to do with asking Santa for what you want.
Mini-Present! You'll find these in the advent calender a lot. They'll give you a random Christmas item.
You won't get to see which items you get until the presents activate on Dec 25, though!
The Bigger Xmas Feature
Claim Ticket.
You will be living there all of December. Every hour starting 12 AM December 1 through 11 PM December 24, you can go to that page and claim a ticket.
On December 25 (or sometime after, not too long though) a couple of tickets will be pulled from the pile and prizes will be awarded. Such prizes include:
Nice Prizes: Lesser Breeding Coins, Breeding Coins, Glittering Rocks, Custom Crystals, Pure GP, Custom Art (art events)
Grand Prizes:
So, how much will you stalk the claim ticket page?
Happy Holidays from Aywas!

Festive Recolor
Pets
So as December is pretty much here, the holidays are spreading cheer among the land of Ay, and as v2 is making it's way around we're kicking the Christmas spirit into gear by debuting the new way recolors of current pets will be changed.
How this will work is a site wide poll will be held that will stay up for 3 days (our trial version will only run for a day), with the old color version displayed and the recolor version displayed and we will ask the users to please vote whether or not they would like to see the pet updated. In order for the recolor to be implemented, the poll results must be at least 60%/40% vote split in favor of the recolor. I would also like to add that from now on, when we upload new recolors, you will not have the option to request the original version.
So here is our test run, the Festive Melo. The poll will end on December first at 12:00 am!

Flash Games
Pets
We just hired a flash game programmer. Please let me know what sort of flash games you'd like added to Aywas (be specific, the more specific you are the more it can help us).
Note: Please don't say "a game like __insert competitor's game__".

Custom Crystal Changes
Pets
Gold Custom Crystal
This crystal will allow you to create a custom with 50% - 75% lineart changes!
So as some of you may have noticed, we've changed the price of one of the crystals as well as set up some new rules and regulations.
We're closing in on 1,000 custom pets and gen2 offspring, and have decided to take the information we've gathered from this and put in place our final decision on how to offer crystals and what should be expected of each one.
Please visit the new Custom Crystal Rules and Guidelines thread to read over the new regulations if you haven't already. You'll also find that the Request Customs thread has also had a small change.
I apologize now for any inconvenience this may cause for those who were planning customs that may not be done yet but have already purchased crystals. If you wish to upgrade you may message Beeejaay #19 for a GP refund for your blue custom crystals. These new rules do not apply to customs that have already been submitted (the queue is now clear so all new posts are up to date).
If you'd like some more reasoning behind the change and a bit of a better explanation as to why these changes were implemented, view Slash's post on this thread.

Whew...
Pets
It seems these have finally died down. Good job catching them!
But there's still something eerie about that Malevolence Melo...
