Site Update


The Art Gallery has been updated with some new winners:





They won:


Some new themes have been added too:
October 2nd - October 9th: Breeding on Aywas
October 9th - October 16th: NPCs
October 16th - October 23rd: Gift Art (draw someone's custom)
October 23rd - October 30th: Halloween*

For the 16th - 23rd Art Gallery, you should put the pet's image, ID, name, and owner on the image too :)



Don't forget the Story Game updates every Friday, even if it's not news posted.



Bank CDs have been tweaked to address the inflation of BP caused by the amount of return coming from CDs. Hopefully you will all find these changes fair.

1. The original 7-day CD was changed into a 14-day CD, and its return changed to 2%
2. The 30-day CD's return was changed to 6%
3. The max one can invest into the top three CDs is now 50,000,000 BP
4. A new CD was added, 7-day, with a 5% return rate and a max investment of 1,000,000.
5. The largest CD, the 90-day CD, did not have its return rate changed, but rather the others were changed to scale according to it.

The GP CDs were not changed.

Congrats to the art contest winners! As for the CD's, eh. I can understand it now, seeing the data (holy cow, you guy's have a ton of BP, I don't understand that!). Though like the others said, it almost doesn't seem as worth it now since the regular bank interest gives out more. Necessary evil, I guess. Just glad that GP isn't messed with. XD Still, we need more BP sinks. We've done one lately with the Celestial event, get more of those types of things in and we'll be pretty good. ^_^

Rechecked it in better detail. I can see it being worth it, I suppose. Either way, do what ya gotta do.

Yeah, thanks to the BP sinks, I have less than I even had as a newbie! xD
Not in GP though, but that's different ;D

Bad news for the CDs...I think that the cost of GP is going to increase...

Yeah. I think most people keeping BP squirreled away are going to buy GP with it at this point since GP is more valuable. :|

If you have a piece accepted, please do not submit further art until a month has gone by, to allow other people a chance at winning. Anyone may enter a starred (*) contest.- Nvm, got it! (xux)

As a relatively new Aywas user I can't help but find the CD changes biased against us, but I can understand why they were changed. Both the cooking and collection economies are crashing, so how else will we earn BP other than grinding explore, if we're not artists?
