Oh that's awesome <3 I don't have any extra flowers sadly. Hmmm, I thought laying them down after Survival didn't count, did they change that?! :O Or maybe I was just wrong, lol.

, my goodness it took me this long to figure out who you were, lol! Once I saw you post and your forum image, it clicked but in my friends list and stuff I was like, "Wat?" XD

Awwww , I would dance with you in a heart beat! Of course, I'll have to unzombie for that first. ;) Survival is definitely my favorite... but I do really enjoy ALL the events so I'm looking forward to masquerade as well. =)

Plus, for any gamers, it makes me think of the Winter Palace quest-line in Dragon Age: Inquisition. <3

EDIT: Ooo I got up a little early cause we were supposed to have a bad storm and possible tornado weather this morning, but it looks like the storm has slowed down, so instead of hitting at 6am our time it might be closer to 9am.. that's very good. Phew! Trying to get my shark pup to school during crazy weather didn't sound fun.

Well, the retired items from Book quests was kind yesterday:

Hopefully all those vintage patterns will be useful for your crafting.

Germ denial, think we all suffer from that when we can't believe it has come round to attack us again! Let's hope the germs are on the way out.

From what I understand the vials only work during survival, but not sure if staff will make any changes. They pretty much work instead of getting bites. I think! Aw, the Love Bug is nice. I think went for that too.

It would be nice to get all the skins eventually, but with the short event times it's not possible.
Extended event with plot for next year!

And the number of clothes you have will only grow and grow! Or maybe that's just hoarding types like myself...
xD

But, yeah, is right, you can dress however you feel, but don't forget the mask!

And for a couple of years we had hilarious HA/wardrobe errors where HA had no clothes at all on the dancefloor. Very funny. But a bit annoying when you worked hard on a nice outfit.

I can't wait until this virus finishes! I wanna dress pretty. :)

~ so sorry I couldn't get more flowers to you in time. I got side tracked with real life. I can still send you what I have if you like.

The "lay flowers" option is still available at the memorial. We just can't find any flowers once survival is over. And wow I got a ton of trade offers!!! :) Thanks Sharks! I will accept a few to get the flowers I need. Sharks are great! :D

"You've earned the Leave a Flower achievement!" THANKS SHARKS! :D

And I also see that the snowballs are appearing on the HAs. I stopped throwing them because part of the fun was seeing them on an HA. But looks like that's fixed now.

That's great news , I will have to remember that for next year. I can buy up and collect extras and wait to lay them if I want. For some reason I thought the lay option didn't count towards the achievement unless survival was active... I dunno why I thought that though. faints I would have bought up more flowers in that case, lol! Oh well. XD

Well you're uh... erm... chrysalis form is ... o_o pat pat you look... nice. :D

That's a gorgeous item . Alexander was pretty stingy for me. shakes fist But it was still nice to have an excuse to do his quests! And he DID get my gourmand pet some nice foods.

I also made the trades because I thought some Sharks might still need hearts since the shop is open all year. :)

A hidden mask, interesting idea :D

Thanks :D Survival was fun but I hope things calm down a bit since that was intense. I am so thankful we can save outfits, I'm ok designing an outfit but hate having to do it often. We're having rain all day here... due to balance issues I use walking poles to get around so umbrellas are cumbersome so I'll have to get the poncho out. If only tech was advanced enough to have a bubble surround when one wants to and then disappear when not needed that would be useful :D

congrats on the nice flower, I got the same one but blue a few days ago. I'll have to find an outfit it goes well with :P

Hilarious about the dance floor error; although, I agree annoying when one put a lot of effort into dressing. Gismo would fit right in... he managed to get out of his sweater yesterday so he was one very happy uncustomized cat lol. Then I gave him his bath and put another sweater on... not a happy camper lol.

I got to go... library then cooking club today! And sometime after get the janitor to come get the rent. busy busy!

~ lol. :) I have some really pretty dresses I want to play with and a Beauty & the Beast background. :)

How did everyone do with getting things they needed from the Parlor shop?

I managed to get everything except for some of the wearables from the 2014 tab, so hopefully I should be able to catch up completely next year.

I probably need to go through the Steamworks shop soon though, I know I need a lot of things from there still. Why does Masquerade have so many items?? ;~;

I'm all caught up with with both I think. If not, I'm real close. Masq is SO hard to get all the tings though, lol.

Cool, you mean there's more? :o Not a problem I responded late for the last one as well. I can lay flowers year round. At 416 with 1/4th being your flower bombs :] How do you wrap those gifts so nicely when you're inside a cocoon?

Congratulations <3s were definitely easier to come by than flowers

lmaooooo yea i've honestly left it that picture drew for me. i feel like im honestly known better as the one who loves blake more than any other name i go by.

I've got one more for you. :) I can wrap them with my Jedi Powers.

I found a last survival flower in my inventory... grand total of 824... 676 left to get next year :D Don't get me started on kisses lol, I'll need to load up on chap stick :P

Thanks to all of you for the flowers! :D If any Sharks still need hearts I have some stashed in my vault. :)

Oooo , if the snowballs are showing up again, I have some shark fins to share with everyone! XD

, wrapping gifts with jedi powers?! :O That's impressive... considering I can barely wrap one as it is, lol.

It's true , even when you were neo I thought of you as the one that loved Blake. Rofl! made that image entirely too perfect.

I agree , I found more hearts than I ended up needing (although I'm slowly buying up foods as my eating pet gets hungry) but flowers were trickier. shakes fist If I hadn't been gifted so many I definitely would NOT have gotten as close to the achievement as I did.

And , I think I got everything except some foods, but I do need to double check cause sometimes I miss an item or two. That's so awesome you should be caught up next year! :D Masquerade really does have an intimidating amount of items... faints Especially the lounge for foodie pets. XD I usually try to get steamwork items first and then lounge it up. x_x

Ah, it's the opposite for me. I always get all of the food items for my pet, but I've never had trouble finishing those every year. Maybe it's because I've been doing it for a good while now, but I struggle more with keeping up with the Steamworks shop.

I should have most things like plushies and books, but I only just started caring more about collecting wearables within the past year or so. I've got a lot of catching up to do with those, and there are just SO MANY clothing items for Masquerade. D:

I got everything from L'Amor and Skitters. I don't do food, so it's really just the wearables, plushies, and beanbags.

I've got all the wears/plushies/beanbags from the menagerie. I'm not at all diligent about books but I could probably buy them all with my pre-Masq stash, but I'm not that invested in them anyway. I figure I can always go back for books when I need them.

Cocoon in a ball gown - someone has to try it! Quick before you evolve again... xD

cheers Glad you got your target! If I find any flowers in the donation corner through out the year, I always put them at the memorial... just in case we get another level next time.

Some rare foods are not bad. I got a couple of plushies I didn't know existed too, so hopefully it will be repeated next year.

I love those flower headpieces, but the prices do get crazy. Huzzah for special events.

A sweater cat (or indeed sweater animals in general) would be a cute line of companion items for the HAs!

Pretty good job with the flowers you got! And if you find any cheap in user shops, you can put them there all year round. All adds to the total.

I daren't even look at the food side of Masq, I am sticking to the wearables. It's still a challenge when event times are short, but making an event too long mean it drags on!

It will be interesting if the news item about the Lower Ziaran residents turns into more shop items or (please and thank you) a plot... Some cyberpunking in the ball room!

Excited for the Masquerade! But definitely hanging on until I am un-Baker-ed before picking my outfit. I tried in the wardrobe but the frosting is very distracting...

I think my problem is that I try to get everything at once and it ends up being too much. :P

Yesssssss I am really hoping for a plot or something. I've already got an outfit mostly ready for Masquerade, I'll probably wait until it's closer to starting before I put it on though.
