Hi Nick,

1) Thanks for the new Gingerbread House Quest. However, because the Christmas event takes place in the North Pole area, and most of us teleport there via the event link, some players were not aware that this new quest was available in the Commons event area. Next year could you provide a notice for the quest either by the Town Crier, or perhaps by a little gingerbread man added to the North Pole?

2) Just wondering if maybe you would consider giving Nate a questline for future Christmas Events? He seems so cold and lonely, warming himself by the fire (bottom left of event area). He has a snowmobile nearby, so maybe he could use some warm winter clothes and some snowmobile gear.

3) Also, is it possible to make the Snow Blocks (ranch item) stack-able (like they are in the new Model Village House)?
Thanks

1) Great point! I'll note this down for next year's Christmas event.

No questline for Nate -- he cut down the Christmas tree!!


2) You're very compassionate for Nate, who chopped down one of the giant North Pole trees! Perhaps we could add a quest for Nate, maybe with some Coal in it >:D

3) I'll have to revisit the Snow Blocks, as I believe they should have been set up correctly.

A silly, simple request. Should the "Pick Random Friends" button be renamed to "Pick Most Recently Played"?

;)

You got me there! I'll note this down.

1- I have a few pets which would go good in the Prismatic passage hub, when it happens, the pets I have suggested are found in the prismatic passage parts, here they are –
- Crystal thunderbird – found in the bewitched woodland left side of the centre of the area, its attribute could be double fruit wins, seeing how we don’t have a pet , that does, it
- Crystal dragons – found shattered spires, centre of area, it’s attribute could be puzzle 25%, seeing how we have a few pets that do quest items at 25% , it’s only fair that puzzle get one too
- Crystal centaur – Fractal forest – right side of entrance, it’s attribute could be double quest item wins, it could be a new attribute
- Crystal spider – fractal forest – NE top field, it’s attribute could be double puzzle piece wins


2- can we have a search bar where we type what pet we are looking for in PAGAS and Clint please


3- I know a lot of players have had a neck full of the player named Boinky which has said a few things to upset some players on chat, but the only answer is to mute them, and to report anything they say that seems inappropriate, but I have also beared witness to some players even saying they hate Boinky, this is unnecessary, just mute the player in question that’s all is required…….sorry for the negativity over xmas

In continuation from my bit about the player Boinky/lilboinky above, I recently had a one on one talk with the player, they feel there has been a “hate” culture formed during this whole ordeal, and I actually agree, and share partial blame for this, I have also seen boinky/lilboinky help a player recently too, I reckon we need to give the player in question a second chance, and yes they will more likely face a ban, but I hope they have learned from that and improve

Bottom line is “Do unto to others, as you would lie others to do unto to you”, and also xmas is the time for giving second chances too, I’m willing to give player Boinky/lilboinky a second chance if other players will too

1) Great ideas! We were already planning to add the various critters revealed throughout the Prismatic Passage available somehow in the quest hub there.

2) A search bar for the Pet Progress dialog has already been suggested, and I agree it would be a great improvement to that and Clint's Mount Progress dialog. Hopefully I can fit them in for the next Quality of Life update.

3) As mentioned, please report messages in the chat that you believe are violating the community conduct guidelines (http://www.codenameentertainment.com/?page=conduct). The best way to do so is the click the offending message in the chat side-bar. And we also provide the mute feature for you to have some control over your chat experience.

Just relaying a few questions for some BW2 players.

A few players are wondering if the green Christmas Tree is available to purchase. It's not offered with past years event items as the other colored trees are. I realize you won't be back to the office until after the event ends, so is there any chance of being able to purchase it this year, such as from the ranch store?

=================================

Banemax asked me to relay the following questions to you:

Banemax: We have options in Effect for Rune, Visual and Holiday, but we still don't have those oddds. ZD wrote that Nick once said that he is considering about holiday odds.

Banemax: And, can you ask him for including Meercat for pet sale / with cost of 50-100 BB? That pet gives mana, special one. I cann't effort more BB... cause I am wasting them on puzzles, because I have problem with eyes with all 100+ puzzles.

==================================


Beetle is hoping that you will add the school bus to the end of year sale.
“Beetle: I have been watching for the school bus mount to be offered for 2 years now and it hasnt come out yet?”

==========================

Oh! While I likely won't add it to the ranch store, I'll make sure it's available in the past Christmas event items store

If I'm understanding this correctly, I believe the Effect sorting categories are universal between Trinkets, Pets, and Mounts, which is why those appear in each, when one type may not actually have that effect available.

The Meerkat may appear in a future Pet & Mount sale at a discounted price. Same goes for the School Bus mount.

On a more serious not, could you pass on to Georgia that we need more pets & mounts for the casino, please? I just bought out the casino of pets and not interested in a red lama mount. Gold and nothing bonuses would be nice, please.

@ TCW I too have bought out the casino. The Llama if you did buy it can count toward your many many mounts achievement.

Duly noted!

@barbzak like I said I logged in just before the day's before sale was ending & had no time to check if had one already, that's why a blurp would be great. But I don't spend enough money for my suggestions to matter.

Thank you for adding the gingerbread men quest. I love it.
I'd like to suggest another mini quest. National Kite Day is Feb 8 this year. A Kite mini quest where we find the pieces of a kite, assemble and fly it would be fun. Maybe have options for different shapes or colors? Feb 8 is pretty close to the Valentines event so it could be added to that or perhaps to the spring event?

Oh neat! Customizeable Kites would be fun! I'll note this idea down, thanks.

I wanted to put my Island on the tour list, it is Xmas theme, but the thread for it is closed. So, guess put it here. Also, I sent you a Hatch Day greeting via email, on your Hatch Day, did you not get it?

Your island is on the list! Thank you for volunteering it. And I did get your greeting! Thank you so much :)

Nate, chopped down one of the giant North Pole trees? Why don't I remember that? But anyway, he deserves a tree of his own doesn't he? lol

Would've been nice to have known I already had the "Sunset Cadillac" before I wasted my precious BB. So, maybe in the future sales could have a blurp on the icons indicating we already have said mount or pet in our inventory. I hadn't logged in until just before the said mounts for sale were going to end & quickly bought the Sunset Cadillac & wasted my precious BB. If had seen something indicating I had it already I would've waited until the next day's sale to see if wanted to buy something. Just a thought.

The tooltip when you hover your mouse over the pets in the Pet/Mount Sale should already indicate if you've ever owned one.

The only case it's incorrect is if you bought one right then and didn't close and re-open the Pet/Mount Sale.

I'm happy to refund your Sunset Cadillac purchase here if you submit a support ticket.

Like the Jack-o-Lantern ranch items you carve at Halloween, you cannot buy more of them in the Ranch Store.

It's not explicitly said, but implied by the Tree quest giver's starting text, and Nate's text when you talk to him at the North Pole. No worries!

Okay folks, this is all I have time for, thus concluding this week's forum Q&A! Thank you for the questions, feedback, and discussion! I hope those quietly reading this afterwards find it informative.

Tune in to the Bush Whacker Weekly livestream tomorrow for a continuation of the Winter Ranch Tour! See you then!
