Just want to thank you for the Alzheimer's donation that everyone will make in this charity drive. Thanks Nick and all the Bushwhacker team for giving us all the option to help out. A cause that is near and dear to my heart. You see, in January 15, 2010, my mom lost her battle with Alzheimer's and passed away. So, I want to thank everyone who participates in this event that is close to me as this one is. I had to buy three of the $5 ones....wish I could have afforded the $25 x's but alas I am happy I can do something small. You guys are AMAZING!!!!

It's always wonderful when a group of people can come together on a platform like BW2 and make a difference, no matter now small.

Thank you to Codename Entertainment for keeping an eye out for every opportunity to help.

Is there a possibility of "dressing" the mannequins directly, rather than changing our avatar, then copying to the mannequin?

Hi Nick,

Thanks for adding all the new items to the stores. I'm anxious for the wandering merchants to appear. The first one selling new items (Tailor) appeared today.

Question: The Burglary Boutique sells a horse head Mask (older item).
If possible, could we have a horse tail to go with it? I searched for one, but wasn't able to find any.

Thanks for all you do! Flybaby

The Horse Head might be a subtle nod to a scene in The Godfather? ;)

Hi Nick!

Thanks for all of the new goodies!

I do have one request for the quest whacks boon. Would you add an on/off switch like the speed boon? There are some spawning quests I like to do.

Also, I would like to see Clint offer the option to swap or upgrade a mount's speed for mount bucks. I would like to swap bonuses but I don't want to loose the speed of the new mount. Since speed isn't tied to leveling I hope it wouldn't be too difficult. Or maybe add a rune or trinket slot for our mounts to wear (mount specific like speed or speed up leveling)

Thanks!

Suggestion for a future pet: Horseshoe Crab. For a future Mount: Hover Board, like the one from Back to the Future 2; unless this one already exists, haven't look at the listing of mounts in a long time. And maybe even the flying steam locomotive from Back to the Future 3. Just ideas to share on the mounts, but would really like to see a Horseshoe Crab pet sometime.

i have a few idea's/suggestions and queries

1- firstly thank you for the new stuff for the merchants etc, i noticed a little minor detail.....so for all pets in the store/s etc we can hover over them and see their stats, for the honey badger, this does not occur, i have already posted this on the thread for the new stuff thread ok already, so i thought i might post it here too ok matey

2- for a few of our shirts thats one colour, it would be nice if we could change its colour like our eyes etc,

3- for thanksgiving could we commemorate the indians not just the pilgrims please, like having a indian shirt or face paint etc, something at least to commemorate the indians least... PS, im not american but i realised we have had not any indian like items in previous thankgiving events, it's not all about the pilgrims you know lol

heres a few shirt ideas i had if thats the only way to go

Some will argue that face paint is cultural appropriation. Maybe an orange shirt to connect to National Day for Truth and Reconciliation would be more appropriate.

@Russell: There's already an orange shirt available from the Amicus Island Tailor Merchant, but it is an idea worthy of consideration. Too bad many would take offense at it in today's world.

It's possible, but would require a good bit of tech development time. I didn't think it was worth diverting what limited development time we have away from other permanent content to add it, which is why I ended up choosing the method it currently has.

I do agree it would be better to dress them directly, and it's on our suggestions list should we ever find the time.

Glad to hear the latest stores update has you exited! I'll add a Horse Tail to our suggestions list for Georgia to consider adding.

I've been noticing coconuts popping up from bushes when whacked as an energy reward; are coconuts going to be a crop sometime soon or is this just an energy reward item?

I don't see why not! I'll make the Quest Whacks boon toggleable for a future update.

Increasing mount speed for Mount Bucks or adding a mount rune/trinket slot are both very interesting ideas! I'll note them down to consider.
