Woah, who is coming to join us???
Site Update
First of all, I hope everyone is enjoying the Metal Mudslide so far :) We have TONS of breedings in the queue, and still a few more days to go!
I am opening up temporary MBC artist positions, if you would like to apply please PM me, Kita #3988 with examples of MBC predictions you have made in the past that have been accepted, or fill out the MBC application.
If you have applied previously, please just bump your PM with me :)
Tomorrow and Thursday's perks are:
June 27-28: Metal hybrids can be bred together and will receive 1 offspring with a 50% chance at a second! **Users can make their own prediction for this day, but will only receive 1 offspring. Fertility potions/other items that add offspring will not function for these hybrid breedings.**
Looks like the Rusted Breeding Coin is feeling a bit left out with the MBC getting all of these perks this week!
When you submit a Rusted Breeding Coin on June 27-28 you can receive the following perks!
Any two pets can be bred together without the need for an HGK, and will produce a random NON-trash hybrid, with a 50% chance of two offspring. (They will be two different hybrids if so.)
Like the MBCs, users can make predictions for this event, but will only receive 1 offspring if so.
Additionally, users submitting predicts must PM SG (#36207) to have 5 random hybrid options rolled, from which they can choose one, allowing a little flexibility while keeping in the random spirit!
RuBCs submitted with a Polished Rock or Opalized Rock will be processed as normal with SCC bases, but still have a 50% chance of two offspring when site bred during these days. For Opalized breedings, be sure to include a second base option if you'd like two different ones.
You can purchase Rusted Breeding Coins in the GP Shop AND the Trash for Treasure shop!
A small reminder:
When breeding two pets together with an MBC or LBC, you cannot add gradients to their markings. If a parent has rainbow markings, the offspring cannot be given a rainbow gradient unless the marking taken from the parent has a gradient already.
Gradients are considered their own markings, adding a gradient to an LBC or MBC offspring counts as adding a marking. Any predictions or offspring that have passed with markings like this in the past were purely on accident due to the fact that the people running the queues are human beings and sometimes make mistakes <3

They won:
Congratulations!
-----
For this Art Gallery submission period we're going to try something a little different!
You are all invited to draw anything you like - as long as it is clearly Aywas related, and incorporates the following three items into the image:
Strawberry Parfait Shoes , Hops, and Non-Binary Shoutout!
Official Aywas stock is not permitted for this theme.
This art gallery prompt ends when there are 6 eligible winners!
So if you want to grab our mystery prize you had better work fast to put the RNG's item choices into a beautiful picture...

Commission Panel
Site Update
This is a reminder to please make sure you pay your fees on the Commission Panel!
Fees that are over a month old and total more than 5$ will be subject to an official warning unless you are actively working with the site to pay them off!
If you are unable to pay your current fees, please PM Kaiyo to work out a way we can get them paid off without any negative impact on your account!
We will be going through the commission panel soon and PMing users who have not paid their outstanding fees and/or who have not PM'd Kaiyo about their outstanding fees, so please make sure you check the commission panel and make sure you have paid off anything totaling up to over 5$ that is over a month old.
Paypal has recently added a small update where it may automatically decide that something purchased through our commission panel needs a shipping address.
While Yasu has worked to change this on our side of times, sellers may need to manually go in and change some information on payments they have taken through the commission panel.
When a payment is marked as "Needs Attention" you will need to go to that payment and click "Add Tracking Info."
In the first dropdown on that page, you will select "Order Processed" and submit it, and it should flag the payment as completed!

PPP Reminders and Site Artist update!
Site Update
I hope everyone is enjoying our little mini event, the Metal Mudslide!
(Today's Perk: June 23: A random add-on will be chosen and used by the artist (excluding items that add or subtract offspring.))
I'd just like to post some reminders about the Prediction Pool Party:
-If you are making predictions, please change the "Will Have Predicts" button to "Yes" when you go to the standing stones and Review your breeding! Otherwise they will show up in the queue and may be assigned to an artist.
-If you would like LESS OFFSPRING than you get with the perks (ex. You only want 2 MBC predictions, rather than 3) please say so in the notes. Otherwise your breeding will not be processed because our site prediction helpers will be waiting for the proper number of offspring in order to process your breeding!
- Please post on the HBC Prediction Check thread for HBC predictions to be processed. They are not processed automatically and will only be processed if posted in this thread.
Some fun information about our site artists (and those who like to commission people for predictions ;D)
If you are a part of a site team you are now allowed to pull PSDs directly from the drive when you are making predictions for an already submitted breeding!
This includes personal predictions and commissioned predictions.
This also includes SITE PET PSDs!
Some disclaimers:
- You may only pull the PSDs for pets involved in an already submitted breeding (this means when taking predictions the artist must also have the user provide the Breeding ID)
- You cannot pull parent/sibling/etc. PSDs, ONLY the pets involved in the breeding.
- Artists may not under any circumstances give out PSDs to users, that is what PSD Fetch is for!
- If a user gives permission (on site, in a PM) for pets that they own the artist may pull the PSDs from the drive to recreate PSDs for the breeding they are working on.
If an artist is found to be breaking any of these rules, they will be removed indefinitely from all site teams.

A MUDSLIDE OH MY GOSH WATCH OUT fdlsancdjklasf
Site Update
The Metal Mudslide Event is back! The Metal queue is looking a bit sad (only 28 breedings in queue! What a disaster!) so we are having a Metal Breeding Coin event BUT ONLY for babies completed by site artists!
Only breedings SUBMITTED during this time period (June 23-June 29, 2018) will get these perks.
You cannot do predictions to get the perks from this mini-event, they will be completed by one of our fabulous site artists! If you would like to submit a breeding during the Metal Mudslide and do predictions, that is fine, but you will not receive any of the following perks (only the regular PPP perks!)
During the event period, all MBCs will produce 3 offspring!
(yes, even married pairs and fertility potions, so save those for your predictions!)
Tonight, at rollover (when the clock says "June 23" at the top of the page), MBC coins will be placed in the GP and USD shops!
USD Shop:
1 Metal Breeding Coin: 5$
MBC 5 Pack: 15$
MBC 10 Pack: 25$
GP Shop
1 Metal Breeding Coin: 10 GP
MBC 5 Pack: 48 GP
MBC 10 Pack: 93 GP
Your Breedings must be submitted on the following dates to receive these perks! Please check the date at the top of the page to make sure you are submitting your breedings at the correct time. As long as your breeding is submitted on the date, it does not matter when the other user accepts the breeding, it will count for the day you originally sent the request.
Reminder: You cannot have breedings that have already been rolled for the PPP refunded.
June 23: A random add-on will be chosen and used by the artist (excluding items that add or subtract offspring.)
June 24: A 4th "derp" offspring will be created by overlaying 2 (or all!) of your normal offspring!
June 25: Every breeding has a 25% chance for a 4th offspring!
June 26: Gradients will be added to at least one marking of each offspring (ex. Two pets with solid colored tiger markings could produce an offspring with RAINBOW tiger markings! Disclaimer: Gradients will not necessarily be rainbow.)
June 27-28: Metal hybrids can be bred together and will receive 1 offspring with a 50% chance at a second! **Users can make their own prediction for this day, but will only receive 1 offspring. Fertility potions/other items that add offspring will not function for these hybrid breedings.**
June 29: Two site genera that are bred together (they must be able to be bred with an MBC) will include a marking from a random site pet of that genus!
For example, if you breed 2 custom Melos with the exact same lineart, your artist will find a site Melo for each offspring (they may be the same Melo or a different Melo for each) and add a marking from that Melo to each baby!

Things?? Stuff?? You bet!
Site Update
This pesky Essence of June seems to have escaped from the GP shop! We've caught up to it and put it in its rightful place at 3 GP each!
The Metal Breeding Coin weather forecast is in, looks like this weekend is going to have some rough weather extending to the rest of next week. 7 whole days of mudslide madness, it looks like!
Graphic design is my passion
Two small things about the Metal Mudslide:
- Most days will be perks for babies that are completed by the site artists only
- MBCs will be sold for BP, GP, and USD

T4T: What's new, Pussycat?
Items
To celebrate Dren's 31st birthday, Vertigo's 15th birthday, and the Summer/Winter solstices, he has very kindly decided he would like to give Aywas a gift, which comes in the form of Vertigo! The Trash for Treasure shop has this wonderful HA companion ready to go home with you and visit your HA and pets!
Snap one up before July 21st!
(Psst - if your pets don't want to share with you, go see Executive Archer (#662) about a fauna version... nudgenudgewinkwink)

Site Update
Whooooosh -wind noises-
Shhh. Shh. Shh. Shh.
You hear that Aywas?
That's the winds of change :O
Something having to do with Metal Breeding Coin seems to be brewing on the horizon.....more updates will be coming once we figure out what exactly is happening with them and hopefully get them under control.
Hopefully we aren't taken by surprise by any.....mudslides.
;) ;) ;) ;) ;)
(Disclaimer: IF any mini-events happen during the PPP, please be aware that it is entirely possible that there will be different perks offered than last year.)
