<center><img src=http://www.subeta.ws:8080/images/keeper_kingkeith.gif></center> The <a href=shop.php?shopid=38>Free Shop</a> has opened it's doors, and it is where all future giveaways will be held! Tonight we will be testing it out :) <center> </center> You might want to watch for these two items, that can only be found in this giveaway! Just so you know - this shop restocks just like any other shop. Meaning that all the items in the giveaway will be restocking over time ;) This means that one time zone is NOT favored over others :)

Also, if it's empty, make sure to stick around. This giveaway should last through to tomorrow :)

Weird, interesting, fun idea. XD Managed to snag a Tshirt.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I give up, too. I stink at restocking and this is just too much trouble.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I think it's a good idea, but you should get rid of the verification box! It keeps giving me an error in place of the box and it makes me lose out on the item!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

It normal missing stuff, guys. Almost all users online are trying to get the items...

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I have a fast connection through roadrunner. It takes me 5min to load the shop once.

And you call that fair? I don't think it's a great trade off for different timezone, if that ever truly was a problem to begin with."

I truly believe the only real upset was due to the Hollow items rsing. Take those bigger items out and life would be wonderful.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Oi x.x I don't really like the codes, it's hard enough having to scroll down and search for an item, clicking it, clicking yes and all that x.x BUT I do appreciate the fact that you actually care to even do these things for us, so thanks a bunch keith!

I give up Good Luck to everyone else though I didn't really care for restocking much when I was doing it for the Restock war, would rather not even try that go through the frustration of RS after RS of not being fast enough for even the more common items. In all Sincerity though, Thank you Keith for trying something new.

Ditto. smiles and closes the free shop window Have fun everyone!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

AWESOME! I snagged myself a feli hat a humming power crystal and a feild light bulb. This is awesome Keith thanks!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

It sounds like an interesting idea but I can't help feeling it will seem even more 'uneven' (for lack of a better word) than the DC giveaways. I guess time will tell ut it is none the less a lovely idea.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I don't like this idea at all

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Gah! I mindlessly refreshed to check the time since the last restock, came here to read comments, went back and realized the shop actually had restocked. XD Interesting solution; I think I like it so far.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

It's a great idea.... for people who can get those items at speeds faster than the blink of an eye. >___>;;;

Not exactly very fair for the rest of us who can only go so fast. :

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

this is making me so upset. i constantly get to the haggle page and then its gone. ._.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I don't like this idea : Every item I've clicked so far [even with multiple in stock] end up being sold out after I type in the word! >< Ill keep trying though...

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

There should be a limit on how many items one person can get otherwise I think there will still be a lot of complaints

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Put a limit on the amount of items you can grab then, if it's impossible to make everyone wait five minutes. And what's with the "last restock - 12 minutes ago" if it restocks every 4-8 minutes?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

whoo! i got the i hate you t-shirt and Purl of the Naiad

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

This is a great idea. Thanks to Keith and the staff lol @ anyone complaining. Just be grateful.

And you call that fair? I don't think it's a great trade off for different timezone, if that ever truly was a problem to begin with.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Whoa! Just got a page with like 40 items on it at once. Still didn't get anything, but that makes me much more happy then being in tiny intervals. Who knows, maybe this'll work after all.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

wow I've gotten myself a Feli Flop Hat, it feels nice to have a really fast connection, although I feel this puts people with modems at a disadvantage :/

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Crashy: I have a fast connection and I'm losing out on everything anyways...x_x

Also...I don't really think using further apart stocks is fair to those who HAVEN'T managed to get anything. Why should we have to wait, and then probably end up with the people that grabbed stuff on last RS getting it again?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

w00t! Got me one of them Feli Hats! Nice idea. Thanks Keithies

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

is there any way you could stock more than 1 of each item? x_x

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I agree with Skitty :/ I got one Feli hat, though.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I saw someone who had gotten more then eight items already, and I've gotten nothing. Could we have a timelimit, please? Like in the DC? I really want a Feli Hat, but I simply can't compete with the professional restockers. :/

The items don't last five seconds. There is already that limit in place. Remember that there are 500 people in that shop, waiting.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Well, I think it is a brilliant idea. Poo to all the complainers.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I can't restock to save my life, this will be fun

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I have a superfast connection and I got to the Captcha page... once.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Lol nice Good thing I'm still up... it's night already and I propably have to go soon tho

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Maybe instead of making it like a normal shop but with only free items, you could have a combination of a shop and the DC. Make the layout like the DC where only a few rows of items show up, but have it ''restock'' like the shops. At least have the rare items restock like that, and there could be a crap-load of common/normal items to sift through. If the codes were removed I suppose I would be more ok with it, but it's still making the site lag Isn't the DC set up so that the databases don't go haywire with all the refreshing? Yeah, just a suggestion...

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Keith & Subeta staff, this warrants the 2nd sincerest appreciation I have ever shown you.

Thank you!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Their is just no pleasing everybody I guess...

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

This is a great idea Keith. ^-^

I already got a Feli Flop Hat. :3

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

too bad I have to go to sleep but I will check it out tomorrow!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Well, congrats to all of you who are good at restocking and have a fast connection. This should be really fun for you

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Right now the shop is restocking more than it usually will - but it usually will restock every 4-8 minutes. Meaning put a 5 minute timer on the items would be moot

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Maybe I'm just lazy but I'd rather be angry about missing out completely than being here and missing everything. Wouldn't it be easier to set a timer or something for the donation center that's like a shop restocker? Sorry, I just don't see how it's a giveaway when you have to rs the items. With so few items restocking and no limit now, it seems even more unfair than before.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Well, for every item missed, someone IS gaining an item. I'm afraid it won't be me unless it's sheer dumb luck.. so.. yeah..

But, it is something, and as Keith said, the items are free. If an item in there is something I really want, then I'll just have to shell out the points later for it. shrugs Simple as that.

Yes, I do like it though. There cannot be a happy medium here, as there will still be complaints, but given the options, Keith(and team?) made the best of the situation.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I agree with ciannwn. This seems really unfair because you can see all of the good stuff at once instead of just having a "chance" to see it, like at the donation corner.

Why can't someone just stick around for a bit and gradually drop items into the DC? That would be the most logical fix.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

YES, I got a Feli Flop Hat! hugs Verizon wireless connection

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Please put in a time limit, like in the old Donation Center? I can get nothing, AND I have a fast connection.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Awesome feature, and wonderful concept. I think this is the best possible way any giveaway could ever be implemented. Beautiful work guys!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

o_0 there are cash shop items in the givaway...

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Its a really really nice idea, but it would be terrific if you could just click the item.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Ooh fun!! I want that Feli Flop Hat!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Why couldn't the donation corner be programmed to restock like a shop when there's a giveaway? As nobody sees all the items at once there's a chance for everyone to get something. Also, with the 5 minute wait it evens things out a bit.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

ew double post, sorry bout that.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Is there a time limit between snagging items, like in the DC?
