So yeah...

1. Any possible hints as to what you guys might be considering to do for the Halloween Event? (and a possible idea for next year's Summer Event; Pirates vs Ninjas ninja pirate )

2. Seeing as you're working on a update to the housing system, could we possibly have something like a screenshot of the work in progress, a rough estimate of the completion time, something along those lines?

3. LANZER, Y U NOT CALLED GAIA GOD?! щ(ಠ益ಠ )щ

We're going to be choosing a different halloween monster this year as the theme

Oh that's a cool idea. Sure, I'll try to get some screenshot ready before the next ATA

The day I pee rainbows and s**t gold I'll call myself a god. Until then I still stink like everyone else. smile

Hey Lanzer and Co.

Yay for the Halloween Event! I'm super excited to see what happens!

My question is about the components for Alchemy, there are a lot of missing components for even formulas that are levels 1 and 2, is this intentional? And when will we be seeing more components show up for the Alchemy hungry masses?

Yes, there will be additional ways of obtaining items. It's a big, long lasting feature so different components will be added as time goes by.

Thank you for the reply, I know I for one am definitely looking forward to more Alchemy items and ways to work things.

Those two I knew about (and if I read correctly, Pangrammic knows about them too). I'm talking just random tanks, and well before I should have set off any "too much grabbing" alert.

As King has already asked about, when you play x amount of games, (loads) you finally reach a point of only being able to play tanks that have less then 5 players. cat_sweatdrop

I did mention that this was happening well before that point. For example, I glitched out of two games this morning while I was having my first cup of coffee.

Excellent Point - may have to do with the server, cache, or the 24-hour clock that has not been announced as far as I know as to when how many tanks you actually start grabbing from - I'm guessing the midnight point PST.

So, Anyone else know the Answer?

EDIT: It does go off of IP address, so if you grab from several accounts, they count as well.

The clench glitch does indeed reset at midnight PST. Tanks that were somehow "full" at 12:59pmmiraculously open more slots at 1:00am.

Thanks Purple - you are a Whiz!! emotion_bigheart

(If you guys haven't picked a type of Monster yet!) The monsters could be robots! Have a Terminator-style Halloween Event! lol

As for if that ever happens...you might have to go and get yourself checked out rofl

Hey Lanzer! Thanks for having AtA, it's great to be able to ask you questions.

Anyway, my questions this week are simple:

1) There's rumor you're working on a homes update. Can you give us any information on what you're improving with it?

2) Unseen Wizzard is an awesome item! Will we be getting any other discworld themed items soon? And who's the artist? You know the new book Snuff is coming out soon.

3) Will we ever have normal EIs again instead of just REIs?

The main amount of work is to change the editor to Flash so that no plug-ins are needed. The basic bugs will be fixed, and the way of creating housing items will also be improved allowing us to make items more quickly.

On top of that, there are a lot of ideas floating around, from TV's that function to multi-level houses. We'll try to release the new basic system with new items quickly, then move on to adding featuers.

The artists have left already but I'll help ask around to see who made it.

Yes, but for now we're tight on time for creating more regular EI's.

That's it for today's ATA! Thanks for joining us and I'll see you next week!

Any idea why some glowing tanks in BG can't be played? I've noticed this fairly often in the past week, even when I've just logged on and haven't been grabbing.

If the tank has a zoey or cathulu, you most likely won't be able to play it. Those two fish are glitched. Other than that, not sure.

Again, no.
