Events
The time is soon upon us - Black Friday is near! As a reminder, the item needed to nab an Exotic pet is Delicious Exotic Egg, and for those of you who are new to the sales, "Special Credit" is credit that you can only accumulate during the sale by making purchases! You can read more about it here.
Below is what will happen on Day 1, with the pre-sale beginning at 11:00 PM AST - this is the time on the site clock at the top of every page, not your personal timezone. Any purchases made before this time will not count towards special credit and will not receive their listed bonuses. If you intend to use Amazon Pay, please note that there can be up to a 24-hour delay in your order being processed. Please contact Kaiyo (#489) if you are using Amazon Pay so that we can make arrangements to ensure that you get your egg.
Additionally, to mitigate any lag that may occur at rollover, your usual rollover notifications may be delayed.

Ghoulish Gala: Cauldron
Events
As the fated day at the end of the month draws closer, the Giant Cauldron appears to be bubbling! The countdown on the side bar will let you know how long it will be until a custom pet is able to be claimed. Once the timer hits 0, the pet, along with its specific recipe, will be revealed - it is first come, first serve, so be quick! As always, you are limited to one claim, so be sure that the pet you are attempting to claim is the one you want!

Slashbot - Configuring Updates
Random Silliness
Configuring updates... 2%... Please don't turn off your Slashbot.
Hello fleshsacks. Are you doing well? I have briefly returned from my culinary vacation for some much-needed TLC. I have since learned that mustard will oxidize the metal on my handsome face... What a shame.
I have a note from my engineer that requires your full attention, so please read carefully.
Firstly, I would like to apologize to those who have been waiting for responses from Slashbot regarding their place in the queue or updates on their slot in general. Slashbot and I have been slowly reaching out to people regarding slots that we can feasibly complete with many pending responses. It has been quite some time since Slashbot has been completely active, so as expected many users have since moved on or gone inactive which has made it challenging for us to accurately give specific queue numbers to those waiting.
As a result, the queue has since been separated into multiple categories such as linearts (new genus and alt line), events, features that require coding (this also covers events with a custom adventure zone), and 'other' which covers any other inquiries that the previous categories do not. The queue is currently sitting at February 2014, and we have been working to remove inactive slots from the queue to streamline the process further.
In its current state, the wait time for alternate linearts and new genus slots is about 7 years. This is due to the limitations of how many linearts can be released per year and the sheer number of requests that have been sitting in queue from 2014 and later.
The events queue is considerably smaller, and Slashbot has been reaching out to users with requests for events that do not require adventure zones with a custom background and merchant assets.
The custom feature queue is backed up by about 6 years, with some features such as jigsaw currently on hold due to the recode.
Due to Hibernation, Slashbot will no longer be accepting slots and inquiries for the following requests: Events with a custom adventure zone and features that require coding. This is due to the coder’s time being spent on the recode and adventure receiving a much-needed overhaul.
Alternate linearts and new genus requests will also be restricted to a conditional acceptance, which is detailed further below.
With most features being on hold, we are now offering users the option to expedite their slots by opting to pay the site artist for alt lineart and new genus requests. These ‘paid’ slots will be prioritized over regular lineart requests.
We understand that this may be limiting for some users for these kinds of slots to require a monetary contribution. Unfortunately, it is our only option currently if we wish to keep the lineart queue moving. This is how new lineart slots will be processed until further notice. We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause.
Additionally, and optionally, users can also supply the item and pet art needed for small/medium/large events with a shop and pre-existing adventure zone can have their slots moved to the front of the queue. Users in the past have joined up with a small group of friends to make lots of different items and pets, and you also have the option of commissioning others as well! Otherwise, these slots will continue to proceed as normal.
We are working towards opening the Slashbot Shop permanently. For those who don't know the Slashbot Shop was around for a brief period of time and users could trade in their stuffings, slots, and Slashbot items for rare items, design tickets, and xentori flutes. We will be taking suggestions for items users would like to trade their slots and stuffings in for in the near future, so please stay tuned for that thread!
Finally, we would like to thank you all for your patience and understanding. We will be reaching out to users in the coming months in the hopes of getting some fun user events underway!
Slashbot finishes reading his long roll of notes and furrows his brow. I wonder what he's up to?
