Ok! So has anyone else noticed the weird ads popping up around the site today? There are two that I've noticed so far (which says alot since I usually ignore the things completely!) - both are take-offs on the "Red Bull" ad campaign... and I'm wishing I could remember the actual text on them! - one was blue and grey/white can and said something about "gives you fins" and the other is a black can with glowing green alien eyes, obviously tied in to whatever alien invasion plot thingy Gaia has up their sleeves...
... Interesting!! Very interesting!!

Both were on the right-hand side. They were vertical ads. I saw the blue/grey one at least twice and the black one once so far... I wonder if it's only in the polling guilds after polling that they appear...? hmmm....

Well considering I get no gold for polling after about 10 polls, I haven't been going into my poll guilds.

If anybody sees them again, can you paste the images here please? I'd like to see/save them. I heard mention of them in the newletter announcement.

And here's the other:  I saw another red bino one in flash, with the fishies swimming around, but it would be harder to save that one, although I know how, I won't.

Yep! Those are the two! Thanks for catching them and posting them here. I *thought* I saw another as well, but only noticed it in that split second AFTER I had clicked and before the new page loaded rolleyes
Is this typical of a Gaian Halloween or something new...? Any ideas?

it's all new this year, they really are pushing the boat out, last year all we got was a storyline update at the time, none of this build up.

Eee, and for those who haven't yet experienced a gaia event with items you can earn, be prepared for major site glitches and slowness.. usually so slow you tear your hair out waiting for a page to load. neutral
