The Day The Potion Lottery Went Wild

That was an intense few minutes!

During the recent outbreak of "things running out of time," the Potion Lottery got a little overzealous in handing out potions. If you received any, please delete them!

Thank you!

I'll never forget the day I won the Potion Lottery fifty-three times.

I must be the only person who bought tickets but didn't get any potions. Sure hope everything starts working right soon. Last night's weekend quest every 60 seconds or so was fun. Next weekend maybe they should all be weekend quests just in case.

Thank you!! I've never had a strong opinion on pherrets but the proposed one is pretty cute! I actually really love the color variation in the front legs/back feet, it's a nice bit of depth to an otherwise super simple design. I'm really curious to see what the final one looks like and will no doubt love it, I have yet to feel particularly disappointed by a revamp. Even if there's a trait in 'em I end up not liking as much as older designs, the quality of the new art is just so nice that it always makes up for it and this one looks just as nice so far!

I'll repeat that I don't like how the new pherret's front legs are darker than its back ones.

I missed everything, no potions for me, but I like the new pherret image someone posted in the comments here. It looks so cute, I'd like one if it looked like that for all the art!

You should probably file a ticket. And I’d expect them to change your pet back to what it was before.

Um....what if somebody already used the potions to change a pet?!?!

Yep, that’s what they looked like and the ‘new’ Pherret was going to look like.

I missed the fun, but happened to have the Pherret news post in a separate tab before things went haywire.

Here's the proposed change for anyone who didn't see it yet and is curious. I would hold off on discussing too much until staff fixes/redoes the post, this is just to show the artwork for people who were asking about it.

Old version on the left -- Proposed new version on the right

Apparently like Dill said, the Pherret post was a pure mishap and I should stop talking like an administrator but I don’t how to stop, I even acted like this on dA on my first account which was called “Delakitty” I’d love to revive it but nobody can because I did the most idiotic thing when it was still Premium for one more week but I was 7 years old.

None in my inventory. The new weekend quest every 60 seconds was fun though. I was hoping it meant they would all be WE quests. :)

Well, the news feed went all nonsense and all, and apparently, The Potion Lottery like the post said, “overzealous” giving random users potion that they weren’t supposed to have, but I remember the Twilight Potion not being to anyone at all.

The pherret artwork may remain, but the critique is gone. Shame. I like it a lot, but I'd like for the critique to be integrated to make it even better! ... and for us not to have to retype our responses.

If you're like me and managed to buy a potion lottery ticket during that... one hour or so before things went crazy & now have an inventory full of potions you need to delete? You can use the quick stock in your shops to delete lots of potions quickly!

Hover Commerce tab, Your Shops, & click the (qs) next to one. The last category is Delete! Or Click here for your shop list. Then select the shop you want to use, Quick Stock, and the last category is Delete.

b Just be sure to NOT accidentally delete other things! ONLY THOSE POTIONS need to go![/b] Hope your inventory was clean. ha. But. If not? You can use ctrl+f, type "potion" and select only those items!

Hope that helps~ ❤️

The Pherret post was misplaced, but the artwork remains! The disappearance of the post in no way reflects the future of the Pherret revamp project.

We're aware of the Weekend Quests issue -- it was part of the same hiccup -- but they didn't flood inventories with potions. Ha! The Pherret post was a mishap and will be dealt with later.
