Halloween Event!

Post by stefanol »

Greetings! :) It's Halloween time (well, it just ended here, but it makes no difference here), so how about a special Halloween Event?

For the past few days we were preparing something special for you. Big up to Nautilus, as it wouldn't be possible without her.

Now, summary of what's going on:

1. Some people were complaining, that there is no big contest. Well, we have just made not one, not two, but three halloween contests. Go to Official Contests forum (http://www.virtuadopt.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=24) for details, but I guarantee the prizes are awesome - submit your works to have chances of winning them:

2. Our dedicated scientists from Adoption Center discovered lately new kinds of eggs. They look really strange, and as they tested, they don't hatch from walking. The theory says they will all hatch after a certain amount of time, but it's up to you to test it. They also claim that if you care about your egg, it will have bigger chance of hatching into something more awesome.

I didn't block yet possibility to mass-adopt the new eggs. Don't fail, mass-adopting is frowned upon, and if I find some people are hoarding the eggs, I will block it.

3. Wigglytuff also joined Halloween craziness, and teamed up with roaming dogs in the slot machine. For around two weeks you have possibility to win special, promotional Witchtuff from clicking. Chance is quadruple of regular chance, the chance for shiny one is exactly the same as for regular roaming dog. Let the clicking begin!
Wigglytuff has already retired.

4. One sad thing happened though. Baby Kangaskhan went to gather candies, and after getting full bag of them, the bag got torn apart, and candies went all over the site. He is too tired to search for them now, but he asked for your help in getting them back tomorrow :(

That's it. Credits go to my awesome mod team, and our dedicated artist, Nautilus.

I hope you enjoy the event :)

I am talking about something like adopting 300 eggs, only to have tons of stuff to spam GTS with. It's a no-no. The more there are of them, the less value they will have in future. And remember, that if you just adopt the egg, without raising it, it rather won't hatch into something more awesome.

I have nothing against such number. I still will probably add a cooldown period, so you will have to wait an hour after adopting one.
