Survival Extension + Quest Bonuses

Hi everyone!

Unfortunately earlier today we accidentally cleared (mostly) everyones infections. Our mistake can be your gain, however! We’re going to be extending Survival until 11:59pm on March 8th, so you might be able to squeeze in an extra infection this year! You will need to reinfect, sorry everyone!

We’ve also reset quests for the day. Why does this matter? All quest givers will be giving out candy hearts until 11:59pm on March 1st! Quests also have a higher chance of dropping Morty Cards during this time.

[edit] The time limit for biting has been temporarily reduced to help you recover your infections faster.

Ohhhhh my gosh I’m sorry to everyone, but there is something so funny about it happening too. And after Amber said earlier it wouldn’t be extended because March 3 was already longer than they wanted survival to be. I admit I laughed out loud a bit.

I was not here today during the problem, but I got the event that my Red infection is over and ready, it's in my wardrobe. I took the skin off and could take another one one hour ago more or less, so I did and I have Grosseries, it was before this announcement.

So what to do? to re-infect myself?

Wow, what an epic disaster. D: I'm so sad for everyone that lost their strains, especially as so many must have been nearly complete. And I guess I'm super glad I stayed up til 2 AM to finish off my strain and start a new one, and that I wasn't even affected. D: /dashes off to the biting thread to help out

I was stage 6 Buzzkill, which is hard to find bites for and I was lucky to get from the insta strain and in the morning.....I know you guys are trying your hardest but I can't say I'm happy that my 3-4 days even with the extension is for nothing and I still may not benefit from this "boon"

It's been reduced to 1 minute temporarily. I am not sure yet how long to keep it this way, but at least for the rest of the day. <3

Some temporary help for biters would be really, really nice also - maybe shorter wait times, fewer bites required, or some sort of incentive to bite? It&;s insane over there, I feel so bad for the beautiful people trying to manage everything D:

Even going 1 - 3mins from 1 - 5mins would be a god send.

From what I'm reading, some people did not get hit with this glitch. Seems I still have my virus, so all is good. Thanks for the extensions. Goes to do quests.

I don't know if you would want to do this, but would it be possible to shorten the times between stages? I made a suggestion thread the other week after that other problem and people agree that at least the all the viruses except the current year should progress a bit faster, and also it will be a bit less tedious for those of us who are trying to get back the virus we lost progress on. But I guess that's up to you. I just wanted to suggest.

Yes. A fix for this issue went out a few minutes after we noticed what had gone wrong, so it shouldn't happen again.

To clarify, infections were not being cleared by saving avatars. They were being cleared by the cron that was supposed to be advancing the infections. It may have looked like saving it was clearing them because that causes the cache to clear/update, but it was not actually related.

I still have my stage 1 of fevermore. I was wearing a full butterfly bruise for biting at the time. I noticed that people were getting their strains cleared by saving in the wardrobe so I&;m a little paranoid to mess with it @ _ @ Is it safe to save avatars now?
if we didn't get our strain cleared by this issue is it still safe to save now? I'm afraid of it being cleared but I want to help bite x_X

The healer still shows me at stage 7 Infection for The Vapors. Will I continue to the stage 8 finish or am supposed to start over. And, the biting forum shows me as still infected. Thank you for any clarification.

Man. This Survival is just one disaster after another, huh. We'll need an 'I Survived Survival 2019' sticker or something after all this.

I do seem to have kept my infection at least, which is nice.

Reading the comments and this just occurred to me: Only on Subeta would people be worried about losing an infection (or happy about having one)

It sounds like you are in the VIP queue. Are you able to be bitten, or does it say No Biting for you on the forums?

If you paid sP when you shouldn't have, file a ticket so an admin can verify and give that money back to you! :)

VIP and healer says I’m infected. I’m biting people with Fevermore so, I’m hoping it’s not a glitch.

Not complaining, I just want to be sure it's intentional since nothing about that is mentioned.

Please don't worry about the increased Morty Card drop rate. It's a sneaky extra bonus. <3

Sorry to bother, but I was waiting for my timer to be ready on my infection and I'm not sure how to tell if that's stuck now because I didn't have to pick an infection again...hut also it still says I'm waiting to be allowed to be bitten :/

I'm a bit concerned about the Morty Cards as well, I've received a total of 29 Morty Cards after doing 105 quests so far. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one!
