Ara Release
After some deliberation, we have been considering having Scavenger Hunt be only in July, with 10-man teams and 150 tasks. In addition, we have been considering releasing the first Ara region in January, and release a new region in Ara every month after.
What do you think? Should we postpone Scav and start releasing Ara starting NEW YEARS???
Ara has nine regions, and if you do want Ara to start being released starting New Years, how about picking which region you want to see released first?
But no hints...you only get the codename!!!
Okay, it looks like you guys are going for the Enchanted Woods first... click on the explore area to go to the submission thread!!!

PS- Forgot about Ara XD Releasing it would be good. Depends on what kind of problems/glitches could come along...

I'm all for releasing Ara and going to one Scav Hunt per year. Though with smaller teams it will mean twice as many entries to deal with. Considering how long it took for prizes to be given out, twice as many teams would mean even longer waits?? That is my only beef with this.

Could someone PM me and explain Ara and the Scav hunt? I'm still confused...

I vote Ara too. I do love the hunts but it would be lovely to have new exploring areas.

ick at making smaller teams and yay to once a year. I think the more people make it nicer to spread out the tasks

I am totally up for Ara instead of scav! I never liked the fact there were two scavs to begin with, it just seemed like... too much in too short of a period. So I am 100% rooting for Ara. It's about time it made its debut!

10 members per team worked out fine in the past, 20 devalued the top prizes by flooding the economy with too many highly rare items. And it took forever to grade the colossal number of tasks for the huge scav... which kind of spurred a lot of drama over waiting on scores to be announced. Twice per year allows people who are too busy in either the January/July month to participate in the other. It wouldn't be cool to have to wait an entire year longer if you end up being too busy one time in July. So I'm opting for keeping the schedule the same, but making it the same 10-member team structure every time.

Yay for Ara! One scav a year I think would be ideal, and 20 member teams were so large it was hard to stay organized and keep people on task, and we lost the close-knit feel of our 10-member team which led to drama and animosity between team members....I think 10-member teams once a year is definitely the way to go.

I am fine with the once per year thing. not sure if I like the 10 per team rule though. Will this also mean we get less tasks?
Yay for ara. And i hope we will see the frog in teh mushroom forest.
