I'd like to put my vote in for a pet augmentation for the double mana odds bonus. I have the Doberman puppy which has the double mana odds bonus, but no way currently to augment that via PAGAS. Thanks for your consideration!

Hi a player would like to know what this is about.
BrianaTheDragon: What's with the things I get with "Xplayer wants to remind you how fun BW is" and then when I accept it says "welcome back!" I play every day. Why & how do people send those, and what do I get?

Could you please give the girl that is tanning on the blanket on AI a lesson in courtesy? I am so tired of the "you are blocking my sun" instead of thanks for the drink!!! I would love to be able to just dump the drink on her head!!!

Hi Nick,

- On the twitch page of CNE only 2 games are mentioned: "Idle Champions" and "Lost Crusaders". Since Lost Crusaders is "end of life", wouldn't it be more sensible to put up info about BW2? Maybe it would even attract some new players :)
- The day before the Thanksgiving event started, there was a player who made 28 (!) requests to help clear a path. Was this a glitch? If not, would it be possible to put a maximum on the help request from a single player?

I agree with MadManix. I always wondered why Bush whacker 2 is not mentioned on Twitch along with the other 2 CNE games. BW2 seems to be the forgotten child. :(

Hi Nick,

Welcome back from your vacation. Hope it was a good one.

1) Just wondering if you can add the Canadian Flower and American Flower to our Ranch Store (from the 2013 Patriot Event) ... The red Canadian flower looks very festive for Christmas decorating, but we only have one.

2) I'd also like to ask you if you could upgrade the gem reward from the "Present from the Developers" (or upscale the reward according to player level). We've been getting 4 Sapphires every year and it seems like a small reward for seasoned players.

3) Just a reminder ... This was mentioned last year so I don't know if you've changed it or not, but we've been getting a Caroling Music Stand reward every year for the "Well-arranged Caroling" quest, and some of us have several in our inventories. Is there any chance of getting a different reward this year?

4) Another little reminder of something I once asked a while back ... Could we have some New Year's Eve party supplies for our ranches and customization items. Such as streamers Happy New Year sign & balloons, noise makers, New Year party hats, etc.

5) Lastly, is there a chance we could get different colored drapes for our ranch windows? We only have red, so I was thinking maybe a few rotatable colors?
Thanks for all that you do!

When I looked at my pet's progress, there is a Pale Anubis between the extra life fairy and the busheen that I don't have. Did I miss an event?

Hey Nick, I bought the new Christmas pack that was released today and AAAAAAA I'M IN LOVE WITH THE MODEL HOUSE PARTS!!!! They're adorable and are perfect for making fairy houses and villages for me, which is what I'm going with as I continue to prepare my ranch for the holidays. I'd love to see more model village pieces, whether festive or normal, in the future!

Hi Nick, The following question comes from Banemax on chat:

Banemax: Flybaby, can you as Nick after vacation, when will be able to increase eneregy bar while fishing. If I have 10.000 energy, while fishing I will have that 10.000, no matter if I am fishing half hour...

Where does this player see these messages? Is it in-game, or perhaps in their Codename Games notifications? I agree it sounds like they shouldn't be receiving these messages.

Ah, it's in-game I see! That is ought to be the same issue as repeated other requests. Hopefully fixing one will fix the other.

She is being rather rude. But some people just be like that.

1) Great catch there! I'll pass that along to our marketing department and see what they can do.

2) I haven't been able to reproduce the repeat-request issue. I suspect it's just a visual glitch, but can make no guarantees. I'll look further into it when I have some time. I agree with the maximum idea, but we'll see if any other solutions become apparent after some sleuthing.
