There have been a couple of significant changes to the weekly Adventure Pet system!
First of all, it's not weekly anymore. Adventure pets will be released every other week. In addition, only six pets will be released at a time. We've decided the site does not need 9 pets a week being added into Adventure. We have a lot of pets available on site, and while we want it to grow... we don't feel the need for it to grow that quickly.
Another rather large change is that the weekly bonus system is removed. There will be no more weekly "bonus" species. While the bonus species helped motivate users to submit designs of specific species, we were shelling out far too much GP overall. If we have a dire need for a specific species, we may offer a bonus for that species at that time. But it will not be a regular occurrence.
This does not effect the current Vyne, Rogr, and Lacer "bonus" incentive currently going on mentioned in this news post. If you submit a design for any of those 3 species, and have it accepted, you will get 10 GP per accepted design. On Friday August 10th at 11:59 PM AST , this bonus incentive will end, so submit your designs for these species before then!
The pet coloration submissions forum now has a sticky thread: Pet Colorations 101. This thread explains the Adventure Pet system along with answering some frequently asked questions. Please be sure to read it!
While the weekly bonus species incentive has been removed, don't forget that you can earn SP through the Pet Submissions Forum! You can also earn GP, and even earn Contributer Status. Hooray for purple posts!

I did think that pets being released weekly was far too much too handle.

Sounds fine to me! This will give me more time to collect the existing pets. ^^
Thanks for the updates, Mauri!

I am personally glad for the slow down of new pets being added to adventure! It is sometimes hard to keep up LOL Not to mention it gives people time to get "older" adventure pets overall.

Ahh on the one hand, I'm a little sad there's no more bonus, the other changes are fantastic! On top of that, it'll help a little with GP inflation. ;3;
I expect ya'll will be getting a lot of submissions for the current pets, though!
