Is there going to be one this year? I just noticed myself that there isn't one for 2013...

the staff are probably busy and have yet to update this year's achievements
Looking for these : x100
IIRC, the achievement didn't come out until pretty late last year. The achievement can't be awarded until 12/31 anyway. :)
What I do worry about is if it isn't tracking our Melody visits properly. I do feel that staff should consider stuff like this by the time they release it.
Anyway, I think Amber said the reason for why it isn't out yet is because they are trying to think of a prize for the perfect 31.

There will be an achievement this year. We are waiting on an item worth visiting Melody every day for. :)
All of the items are worth visiting Melody every day for.
well i mean obviously those items are worth it (they are all so adorable omg you guys haven't even seen some of the best ones yet) but WE HAVE TO HAVE A GRAND PRIZE ITEM THAT IS ALSO WORTH IT.
DON'T TEASE ME, BRO. I figured it was going to keep with the trend of giving out the Essence ? Or are you talking about on top of that (like it was last year, the Essence on the 25th and the background on the 31st) ? Or a brand new one ? I am so curious.
OOOOH, alright. HMMM. Dreams of a Luminaire bakery themed background Ssshhh, gimmie all of the bakery themes.
Oh my this is legit teasing! Can't wait to see it :D And honestly,everything is worth going everyday imo.
Oh my goodness I'm so looking forwards to that, heck I'm always looking forwards to every new days items!!! ;-; SO EXCITE!
Not possible. :b
Haha, in all seriousness, if this years crop of Melody items is any indication, the achievement prize is going to be awesome. :D
(The Runaway Hot Chocolate is still going to be hard to top, though. Unless it's with whipped cream. 8'D)
we still have some great items to come BELIEVE ME. The Runaway Hot Chocolate is just one of the many great items <3
(though I think all the items going out this month for Melody are great)
Thank you so much for the update! ^_^

Turning on the achievement late is kind of shit... people, not knowing it exists, may lose the achievement before it is even turned on. Plus they can't check to see that their visits are being properly recorded.
I'd MUCH rather see it turned on -right now-, with the essence on the 25th (that should keep people going until then) and then the 31st prize added. Sure, there's a risk that people just don't want the essence and then turn around and do want the prize when it's added, but we're already running that risk now + the risk that they don't know either exist.
I'd much rather achievements be live when an event starts (Especially this one that requires you to do something every day of the month) and keep the prize secret if you need to until the end. Or having prizes to go before an event is live would also be ideal but I can see that being problematic to achieve with no creative director to manage time/workload anymore.
