Specialty shops such as the Millionaire Center are being temporarily disabled as part of Keith looking into the lag, but they'll be back! Thanks for bearing with us!
EDIT: Specialty shops are re-enabled, and server and database load have been rebalanced as well! We'll continue to tweak as needed.
UPDATE March 28th - Keith has posted on the topic with an explanation, please ">read his detailed post. Thank you again!
Why should Hydragellos get to stomp around like a giant while the rest of us try not to get smushed under his big feet? What’s so great about Hydragellos, huh? When did it become okay for one giant pile of gelatin to be the boss of everybody, huh?! BECAUSE THAT’S NOT WHAT SUBETA IS ABOUT! WE SHOULD TOTALLY JUST STAB HYDRAGELLOS!
...Sorry, got a little carried away there. But I meant what I said. If you stab that thing enough times -- say, 15 million damage worth of times -- I should be able to use the jiggly chunks you lopped off to craft you your very own Hydragellos Maniacal Core.* I'll keep track of your total damage here so you can check it anytime.
And don't worry if you can't do that much damage; I'm sure I can scrounge up various prizes for everyone who participates, based on their overall damage dealt!
*One core per account; the 15m damage has to be from a single pet. You have until Thursday at 10pm. Good luck!
So, those much bigger and scarier threats I was talking about? It's these gelatin stompers. And if you think there are a lot of them now, you should have seen the size of this horde before I took out about 90% of them yesterday! And I cleaned up the mess they made, too, so that you wouldn't step in it today. That's why the battlefield is so clean... because I'm so considerate. No need to thank me or anything, just finish off the stragglers, please and thank you!
In happier news, it seems like the smaller gellies are starting to disperse. That's good, right? Surely there couldn't be anything scarier coming in their place, right?
Okay folks, it was all fun and games til this point, but now the gelatins have learned how to use magic. So here's what we're gonna do. All of you are gonna get in front of me, like a big meat shie... uh, wall of warriors, and you're gonna hit those things with everything you've got. Meanwhile, I'll be back here single-handedly eliminating the much bigger and scarier threats attacking from the other direction. Don't let me distract you, though. Seriously, don't even look back here. We got this.
Look at these radical half-shelled dudes... emerging from the shadows to make their moves... positively dripping with secret ooze.
Get out there and make the good guys win and the bad guys lose!
It sounds like a mass of gelatinous pink creatures are rapidly approaching! Why don't you get out there and... what's that? How do I know they're pink? What, you mean you can't hear colors? That's weird.
Despite asking you to keep the minis off my roof, I heard an awful lot of thuds above my head last night... uh, not that I was inside! I was out beating up mini gelatins all night, except for when I needed a snack. I was craving a good old-fashioned PB&J, for some reason. Anyway... do you hear that? It's faint, but I can just make out the subtle whoosh of aerodynamic gelatins...
