Hi again Zero! Last year you had okayed a forum for The Daffodil Movement (April 1-30) and I am posting to see about us doing this again. I can't remember the email address for asking you all for blogs/announcements, so I include that request here- either for the email to make an official request or asking you here. But my big thing is I would like a Hot Topic forum again like last year. Thanks for your help!

Love Renewed

I'll make note of this! Could you send me a PM?

In one of the last few ATS someone asked about an item sink event and I think it was answered that you were working on one? Can we expect that to come soon or later in the year?


That idea had been discussed in event meetings but currently we're working on other ideas. Probably later in the year.

Will there be some sort of mini event or item for April Fools Day? I still remember the exploding face items. I know its a little awkward given the timing of it this year

Are you planning easter event in games like zomg, Kindred? and there was a game i remember you always brought for important dates called switch or switched (idk)


zOMG will have the old easter event back, as all holiday events on zOMG runs on a scheduler and will trigger when easter happens. eek

For years now, forum events have been impossible to complete while using the Forums Lite option. Can this information be added to the Gaia Labs page, so users are informed about the issue before they activate it?


That makes sense, I'll look into updating the description.

The easter egg hunt is back in zOMG right now, though we didn't have time to add new items as rewards, we'll definitely do that for next year.

I'm just curious, and obviously it doesn't matter now, but was Easter never activated on Village Greens in zOMG? I never saw any eggs there the entire event and two days before the end eggs stopped showing up on Gold Beach as well.


Easter eggs were setup to spawn on 5 different maps. Though the frequency does depend on visitors.

A few of us in the Paws forum jokingly came up with a premise for an event where all the main NPCs were turned into Animals (or Paws) and you had to try and find a cure without becoming a Paw yourself (if you use a human avatar)
I was elected to pass this idea along, just incase you guys wanted to do something with it mrgreen


Heh, I love the idea. Will I turn into Waffles?

Hey Gaia staff, I wanted to let you know coming here on June 10th, I’m doing a robot appreciation week community project! Is there anything you can help to promote it?

Shoot an e-mail to userevents@gaiaonline.com! We've got a new(ish) team that's been handling those more consistently for the past few months.

No, but Lionheart is working on a LK themed mobile game right now. It's his first project on mobile so it'll be a small game.

Could you give us a time frame for when emails to the user events team will be replied to?

This year’s AURB is supposed to begin August 3rd and we’ve sent emails, but nothing has been answered. Please get back to us soon.


Hello.

I apologize for the delay I, unfortunately, had to say goodbye to my cat today so I have been away from my computer. I did reach out to my team last week for what we can do so please hang on for an e-mail first thing in the morning.

Thanks.

Question Category Features

Will there be an events added to Towns 2 like there had been in Towns 1 all those years ago?
I really enjoyed the swimming pools and balloon fights, along with all the other seasoned events there!

Added:
I feel like this would be a great way to sorta add influx to flash spaces for those of us who do enjoy them.
Since the IM feature is gone, it's like the only way of getting the IM feel imo.


No, but maybe in Towns 3.

Are there any plans to extend the event for a day or so to compensate for the threads being down on the first or second day?


Okay, let me talk to the team, will post a staff alert if we extend the end date.

Any chance on getting an extension on the event of buff for points on the final day? We've never had a week long event, they've always been two, plus it's just a drag getting 20 points per game. That's 300 games or 4500 posts!


I'll run that by the event team. Thanks for the feedback.

In terms of points, I would check out some threads that frequently upgrade goals, go for the bigger goals, take longer routes, and has lots of people playing! I usually range between 500-2000 points per game! A little anarchy never hurt nobody ninja
There are not that many people upgrading the prizes, plus do you actually know if taking a longer route makes more points? sweatdrop The biggest influence is the level of the cookies in my view, 80 points versus 350 points. Hell, I got 80 points being the one who got the cookie and actively participated. emotion_donotwant

Longer route, as in, the more directions inputted by multiple people, is for more points!
I guess it would take a little bit of snooping, but I know when some thread owners are online, they upgrade goals. I'm pretty frequently upgrading my own as well when I get the chance :<

Speaking of the event, what determines the points you get? Is it the moves you make or the total moves of everyone?


Going for the goal that's worth points, upgrading the goal, more directions inputted by unique users or yourself—a total of all those things!
Ok, so theoretically if I wanted to make up time (because having to make all those posts is tedious and my internet is slow as ********) if I just hit and run on pages, that wouldn't give me like 20 points total for the cookie?


Technically you can hit and run in as many threads as you want, but if the other participants go for the goal that's worth the least amount of points—collectively you'll all end up with... .the least amount of points. Maybe scope out a few threads and see if other players are going for the big goals first 3nodding

Wait, is there supposed to be more than the two cookies? Because I've only ever seen a lvl 1 or 2 and a level 0 cookie at one time.

jenru
most threads I've seen only have 2 cookies at a time, but I've seen lv 3 or the max one before.

we could use more instructions at the begin of these events.
alot is muddling through till you find a user made guide with directions


Only two cookies on the screen at one time! But option to upgrade is available until it hits the max. I might just be online at peak hours, but I see lots of level 3s and max!

Instructions are pretty straight forward (as the game is just to post a direction), but it doesn't explicitly say which one is worth more points! Some of it is left as a mystery ninja

(whoops sorry for the late response)
