News Archive: Week 18, 2016

Hi, everyone! This afternoon we took the site down due to a number of errors being thrown out around the site (like news comments, the forums, user dashboards, etc). They were all related to our MongoDB database provider. We’re in contact with them to figure out what exactly went down and why.

Unfortunately, that meant we had to bring the site down. We know that means a lot of you missed out on prime questing time as well as hunting for flowers for Vesnali. We’re extending Vesnali until 11:59pm on May 3rd, with the Vesnali forums closing at 11:59pm on the 4th. Quests will still act like weekend quests throughout Monday as well.

This month is all about recycling, revamping, and reusing! Get a head start on your spring cleaning with this monthly collection from the Cash Shop.



Previous May monthly collections are also available in the Cash Shop.



There will be a new Reward Card on May 13th!

Show your love for the zasaba by wearing one of these new wing brooches from Five Seven Five!

Just a heads up that on May 1st at 11:59pm, Migrating Masks will be closing shop until next Masquerade! Olivette’s masks from this year along with a mix of previous years will be back next Masquerade.



Vesnali will be ending on May 2nd at 11:59pm. This is when flowers will stop floating. Fortunately for you, we’ve increased the rate of floating flowers a tad bit, as well as the payout in coins for giving and receiving flowers! The Vesnali forums will be closing on May 3rd at 11:59pm.

Unfortunately, quests weren’t counting as weekend quests after midnight. We’ve reset quests for today though, so you have a chance to redo them!

As a thank you for dealing with the server and shop issues, we're making all quests weekend quests this weekend! Happy questing!

I have six new Vesnali themed recipes for you to try at my Bakery! These recipes will stick around after Vesnali, don't worry.





You’ll notice a few of the older recipes have been updated. Butter is now it’s own category, like sugar or milk! You can use a stick of butter, these fancy new butter compounds, or vegan butter now! All of these buttery items can be found restocking in the Food Market.

Help Chimalma at Delphi Beach by catching the bugs she asks for.

How do you catch bugs? Easy! Once you offer to help her, you’ll find the bug you’re look for floating around the site. Click the bug and bring it back to her! Chimalma is nice enough to let you keep the bugs you show her. Unlike bird watching, there are no area specific bugs, so you can find the bugs anywhere around the site.

You can only help her once a day, so remember to visit her every day. There’s an achievement in it for you if you catch all 30. Bug Catching will be around until the end of August!



The first time you agree to help Chimalma out, she will give you one copy of Bugs As Inspiration for free. If you want another copy, you’ll have to buy it from the Millionaire Center

Cursed Quests is the weekend quest! Do those quests for increased prizes and special rewards!

Taharka the Custom Galactic Montre has won the Pet Spotlight!

The Cash Shop has an interesting take on Spring with these bone garden themed items!



Note: The Daubby items will be retiring from the Cash Shop on May 15th!

DobbyD the Chibi Hipottu has won the Pet Spotlight!

Hey, Gold Account users, we have a new perk for you!

Starting today, you can use quick stock (make sure you're not in a legacy shop!) to move items from your inventory straight into collections. Currently, this works for: beanbags, bobbleheads, minions, pastries, plushies, pumpkins, trading cards, and wooden tiles. Food and books are not included because they are pet-specific, and stickers are not included because we don't want to get in the way of The Hustler's... hustle.

This feature is currently in testing. If you notice any issues, or have any suggestions on how we can improve on it, please head to the appropriate forum.

Hello! Are you enjoying Vesnali? It's my absolute favorite time of year. Esther and I have gone rather bug-crazy this holiday, I do love the little crawlers! Except for when they're eating our plants...but thankfully there are lots of harmless ways to prevent them - we don't like to hurt any creature, great or small!

Speaking of bugs - can you believe the zasaba? What a beautiful pet! I managed to bring some to Peka Glade in order to see how they reacted to the water there, and just look how beautiful the glade zasaba is! It had a particularly interesting reaction - changing its body shape a little as well as the usual color, flora and fauna changes. It must have a special relationship with nature!

Briny the Hydrus Ontra has won the Pet Spotlight!

Have you been looking for a nice (and humane) place to put all of your lovely minions when they aren’t helping keep your pet happy? Luckily for you, >Minion Zoos are now live! You can find your minion zoo by visiting the games page under Collection.

You can send your minions to your zoo by choosing your minion in your inventory and hitting the “Send Minion to Zoo” option. The option to move all from your inventory has been removed! It was tied to minions that had stats for battling, which was not released with this, so it was not moving all minions to your collection.

You are more than welcome to have multiples of the same minion in your zoo, and unlike other collections, you can actually remove your minions if you want! No one will judge you if you have an entire zoo full of chickens or adorable food related cuties like the I-Love-You Rainbow.

You can even show off your impressive zoo to anyone you want! They’ll be listed under the “Extra Userinfo” widget on profiles if you want a quick link to give to friends. On the public view page, your minions will be sorted alphabetically. However on your homepage, you can view them by item name or time in zoo.

If you had minions in the zoo previously during the Gold Account testing, you'll be happy to find them already settling into their new home!

And if you don't have any minions for your zoo, you could always stop by my shop. I have plenty of minions in need of a good home!

If you <a href=https://subeta.net/explore/fragmentizer.php?act=shop>play your cards right you can add this classic trading card to your collection.

The Cavern of Curios has five new butterfly inspired vases. The vases transform into the lovely drapes if you’re feeling the need for a more sheer wearable!

The drapes do not restock, you have to get them by transforming the vases!

Charlemagne the Custom Angel Sheeta has won the Pet Spotlight!

Vesnali is here at last! Come visit my shop for all sorts of interesting goodies. During this past month, my gardens have been visited by quite a few bugs, and they served as inspiration for some of my stock this year. Remember, I only accept Vesnali Coins, so stock up on them by giving your friends those floating flowers!





Hand out flowers to your friends and chat on the Vesnali Forum! Vesnali ends on May 2nd at 11:59pm; the flowers will stop floating at this time and the forum will close on May 3rd at 11:59pm. You’ll no longer be able to earn coins after the flowers stop floating, but my shop will be open all year!
