Next Thursday (23rd) is an American holiday Thanksgiving, so we won’t be having a sprint thread.
AMBER
This week I’ve been preparing for our Black Friday Sale and Fireside! Both which are coming up pretty soon. If you’d like to see a particular forum title pop up for Fireside, suggest it here! Use this thread for any Fireside items you’d like to see come back or Cash Shop things for Black Friday. :)
I’m still working on making item menus rad. <3 Some of you gave feedback on the previous thread about not wanting a lot of scrolling (which I completely understand, I have like 60 pets and scrolling is the worst) but others don't want a lot of extra clicking. I'm working with to find the right balance and will hopefully have another sneak peak for you the week after Thanksgiving. :)
BUG
and I completely missed each other today (I’ve been sleeping most of the day fighting off the start of a cold). I’ll edit this section with all the cool things he’s worked on this week in the morning! I just wanted to make sure to get this out on Thursday I REFUSE TO LET OUR STREAK DIE.

[edit] HI I'm and risen from the bed finally to give you my updates this week.
This week's updates:
Itty Bitty Bugfixes
- Aboxalypse no longer says "you won a medal" every time you defeat it
- Backslashes before apostrophes bug: Fixed on ticket names, pet friends, and pet descriptions!! You can now write code without having backslashes show up before all your quotes!
- Sidebar events no longer persist in the cache after you delete them. Delete an event and it's gone right away!
- In addition, the Events Page has been made actually functional. (A link to this page shows up when you have more events than can fit in your sidebar.)
- Eyes in the wardrobe now show the name of the eye under the picture :)
sCode Previews! Now you can...
- Preview news comments!
- Preview user profile comments!
- Preview tickets before creating them!
- I also increased the width of the preview modals; they were somewhat narrow before.
Battle stuff!
- Continued work on the EXP page. I moved things around a bit and made other tweaks based on the feedback. Continue giving your feedback on this thread: Battle UI Changes, Pt 2.5: SPEND EXP
- Stats page shows opponent stats for other users, not just pet stats. Also got a bit of a facelift :)
- There were a few other random battle bugs that popped up this week. They should all be fixed now. If you encounter anything new, please post about it here.
that is what I get for posting this after waking up tbh
(fixed)
I'm so excited for this new menu, and for fireside :D

Thanks for the update.
Wishing you and both, a happy, peaceful and healthy Thanksgiving.
Hope you both manage to rest and get some sleep. Taking good care of yourselves is important.
I'm really interested to see what you guys come up with for the new menus! The last sneak peek looked a lot nicer than the current layout and a lot of the recent aesthetic changes have been really pleasing, so I'm sure whatever comes out of your brainstorming will be a great improvement! :o
Gotta be sure to check back when Bug's update comes along. I really love reading all these little tidbits about what's going on with the site. It's exciting seeing it pop up in my events!
Why'd you change it to November? I was looking forward to Morostide all over again.
Whaddya mean balance between scrolling and clicking?
Type in your pet's name that you want it to apply to. No scrolling or clicking. Because it only has to check the character strings belonging to your own pets it shouldn't take too much server time.
I don’t know about , but I will likely get little sleep. I’m going to be visiting which means a lot of running around haha.
I’ll make sure to post when I’ve updated and alert everyone that’s posted here <3
too much of a good thing is not good
Yeah, that’s not going to happen. There's a lot of issues with that. Doing an item to one of your pets should be a quick and painless thing, not trying to remember what one of your pets names is or how to spell etc etc
Yay, looking forward to the start of Fireside and to the item menu updates! Thank you for all your hard work. C: Rest up and enjoy your break!

Thank you both for your hard work and feel better soon.
RIP Mom, I love & miss you more than you know. Tell Dede hi.
Ocean Conservation Namibia on YouTube... they do good work! https://www.ocnamibia.org
trying to pack that much information in and also trying to make it zipless?
Battle streamlined their function by making scroll sets, armory sets, and having the order of those sets matter. Have players set up eat-sets, play-sets, boost-sets. They only have to click eat or play or boost and it goes to the first pet in the line and then down the line just like weaponry works with the current battle UI.
This would make reading all your pets the same book painless, and the use of the Infinity Berry painless, and then some exceedingly expensive non-destroyable fisherprice busy toy thingy for making playing with your pets painless. OR if you only wanna do this to one pet only, only put one pet in that set.
^ Actually, I really like that idea. I only feed/play with/boost one pet and consistently read to 5 pets in order. That would be a really useful system for me.

Thank you Amber
It's time to get real and inspired!
Question Everything
Thanks for the update, get some rest!
Same.
Ariel and I have discussed doing something like this (setting specific pets for things or having main pet show up at the top, etc). :)
I have to say I agree with the above if I'm understanding correctly. (not sure if i am lol, it's been a longass week and it's not done yet.) But having categories for pets would be amazing, at least for me cos i have a million haha.
thanks for the updates! :) I'm loving the changes and tweaks that you all are making
I suggested a harvest mahar for fireside, hoping to see one this year!
