Site Update
I think I hear the rustling of wrapping paper... that can only mean one thing! The Holiday Tree has finally opened!
I know many of you have been waiting for this day to wrap up your presents and send them to everyone's tree, so please, go enjoy! Remember, anything you send will go under the recipients tree and will not be able to be opened until December 25th!
Please remember to keep all notes within the presents appropriate! If you receive a note that you feel violates Aywas ToS please contact a moderator immediately!
Along with this opening, we would like to announce a very special Holiday Sale!
From now until December 31st at 11:59pm AST every $5 you spend will earn you a Holiday Gift Package!
This special package is Account Bound! The only way to pass it on is through the holiday tree! Then, on the 25th once the presents are able to be opened, the recipient will find a Wrapped Holiday Gift Package under their tree. This package will open into Snowballs, Candy Canes, Snowflakes, a Gold Paw and you will also find 2 rare Scratchcards!
Miksa's Tracks Scratchcard gives you a chance to win a pet that you do not already own, while Niklas' Stars Scratchcard give you the chance to win a rare item or GP!
If you do not send your Wrapped Holiday Gift Package by the time the Holiday Tree closes, then you will have to sit on it until next year, as they are just collectibles!
But do not fear! These Holiday Gift Packages will also be stocked in the GP shop so no one misses out! <3
Speaking of GP... remember that long-promised GPalooza?! Well, I am glad to announce that it begins right now!
From now until December 14th at 11:59PM AST you can find several rare items stocked in the GP Shop, including the greatly asked about Breeding Coins! Due to our pet not being shaded in time, we are canceling the very late October Breeding Season. We were hoping to start it late, but we have another season scheduled for January, so we do not want them stacked on top of each other. We apologize greatly for this inconvenience, and we will do our best to see that this does not happen again!
In the spirit of GPalooza we are also stocking several rare items! These items will be stocked randomly up until the end of the event, so stay on your toes and keep checking in on the shop! We will be selling Artist Tickets, Design Tickets, Neura Eggs, Blue and Gold Baby Bottles, Bottomless Trunks and even Skill Boxes!
As promised, we are also hosting 4 Auctions! They will last right up until the end of the event (providing I did the math right, if I didn't please don't hate me)!
That concludes what GPalooza offers, and I know one of the main questions about the Aymas event is "Where are the gift boxes!?" Well, they are getting a complete recode! Many of the items inside the boxes are outdated or redundant, so we are altering what is in them and removing items that are retired! (The Custom Crystal Grab Bag is getting this refurbish too!) The way we are going to recode them will also allow us to keep them updated with newer items as the need arises!
We have also been hearing a lot about Eggnogs! Don't worry, they will be making a comeback, though we may be adjusting how long they are available for. However, we will make them hide out in some of the presents to make up for this!
We've had many reports about the BP Shops haggling system being disabled, it took so long to turn back on because it has also been updated. It is no longer a stagnant 10% discount, instead Scion will haggle against you, offering different amounts, and the percentage he gives varies with every attempt. Due to this we have raised the amount possible to haggle, however it is randomized which percentage he chooses.

I'm confused on the Holiday Gift Package. So if we get the item we can't use them ourselves? We have to send them so other people can use them but they don't do anything for us?

Yeay! I Was worried the new gift wrap thing would replace the tree... I'm glad to see it's back. Used all my gp buying RBCs for the current event so not going to be able to do the GP-POloza now ...
My only concern with Eggnogs coming back is how will the breedings be handled? Will both babies be assigned to the same artist or different ones? Last year there was a chance that the breeding was split and two artists could get the babies and the results were very unsatisfactory.... with some babies getting lots of edits and the other in the pair feeling like they had no edits at all because it was a different artist's style.

Taena (#66637) I have been doing the current eggnogs and blind dates in queue in even pairs to prevent that. I do hope to continue doing that with this months holiday eggnogs as well.

If we can't use the special gift packages for ourselves they may not be working as they should be. I opened one myself; I had not read the post all the way through but now seeing comments I think they may be broken.

Just wondering if there will be any Christmas goodies in the BP Shop like there has been in the past years?
