Site Update
The annual Aywas 24-hour love fest finale has arrived!
(Lasting until February 22, 2015 at 11:59 p.m.)
If you need a little pick-me-up, the Adore-a-Gram Lunaris has one final Love Letter to give you today from the Advent Calendar!
Two items have been added to the Seasonal Shop for a 24-hour stock--Breedable Potions and Divorce Papers! (The Divorce Papers will return to the SP shop after this 24-hour period.)
The Engagement Rings have been added to the USD Shop. Due to their impact on the queue and associated costs, we could not release these for points this time around, but still wanted to make them available to you. Like the two items above, these are buyable for 24 hours.
Remember that we also have limited quantity stock items coming up, as well as raffles and giveaways that will be going on throughout the day. You can check out those details here!
Also, don't forget that the Love, Aywas thread is open until February 23rd at 11:59 p.m. So if you miss getting one of the shinies you want or aren't rolling in Love Letter points, you still have a shot at something nice. :3
Best of luck!

Eri, it's not you this is exactly at. It's for whoever knew. I find it hard to believe that this an't planned at all. Even if not you, someone knew. Makes it even worse they didn't tell you.

ChaosAzeroth (#43055) You'd think so, right? XD Most of the details of our annual events are planned out ahead of time, especially since I need to order the item art well in advance, but sometimes there are things that aren't decided until much later on or deviate from the original plan for whatever reason. - Eri

Eri & Dew (#17) I understand that this isn't your fault (and I'm sorry you kinda have to deal with the dissatisfaction over something that wasn't your decision).
But the issue still remains, and imho the person who told you not to release them this year should've communicated this to the userbase sooner, as I'm pretty sure they didn't decide this just now. Now, to me it kinda feels like they got our hopes up, only to release *the* conveted item in the USD Shop so we'd spend RL monies. I'm not saying that is in fact the case, but that's what it feels like to me personally.
Also, I'm left wondering whether the rings not being released this year means they'll never be available in the shop again, or whether they'll be yet another USD only item. I can see how the 2011 pendants never being released in the shop again is for the best, but I somewhat fail to see this for the rings. Are they really *that* big an issue for the queue? I find that hard to believe, especially since this is the first we hear about it.
I'm not trying to be rude, or rant, or make anyone feel bad or feel like they have to undo this decision. I'm just trying to express my disappointment and concerns in a polite way orl

Well, I just blew all my points on a Metallic Starlight Bottle. It came in at just about how many I had saved up and I really didn't feel like clicking nervously for the rest of the day =P I paid 720 points with premium, which probably wasn't a very good deal since no one else seems to be buying. But I'm happy enough with it ^.^ Good luck to everyone still waiting!

I guess a lot of the disappointment too is a general lack of communication in general. I'm not actually quite mad at anyone exactly. But with a lack of transparency it feels more dishonest, even if it's not. Because it feels like keeping secrets. An then seeing staff not even aware. This whole thing is kinda murder on anxiety. x3

Marjo - swapping LLs (#5741) Oh no I totally get it, you're perfectly fine! As far as I am aware, they'll be reassessed next year and could potentially be released for points then. But either way I'll make a note to get those details announced at the beginning of the event if I can. And yes, though I don't personally work with the queues, I am told they do have a decent impact actually, and of course result in extra USD being paid out. - Eri

ChaosAzeroth (#43055) Aww no, I understand that, but we weren't trying to. I try and be upfront about as much as I can and am always happy to answer questions, but this was just one of those weird situations. :C - Eri

I can't say I've had anything but good experience with you tbh and you somehow always manage to make me feel at lear a little better no matter how crap things may feel. So I wanted you to know that I do appreciate that too. :3

3 metallic starlight bottles in the shop, right on time.
For those curious (and because looking back i didn't find any note of such other than *expensive* for previous years) they went for 800 tickets (pre premium)
