Of the new ranch item, the lifeguard tower, could you fix it so that we can place something like a gnome or mannequin, though I don't think a mannequin would fit, into the tower? Maybe even have the option of a lifeguard gnome for next year's Dog Days of Summer Event. If you have the time; no hurry.

Nick, on Thursday, there was a pop-up on my game about an MS Charity Drive. I didn't have time to read the entire blurb and left thinking I could go back to it. Now I can't find it anywhere on Bush Wacker 2. Did I dream this?

A couple of things: At the end of the Summer Games Event, all non-VIP members were able to collect the VIP rewards if their end score was high enough. Was this an error? Because at the end of the Dog Days of Summer Event, personally speaking, I wasn't able to collect any of the VIP rewards.

Also, just a couple of suggestions for future pets/mounts: Woolly Rhino, Whale Shark, Basking Shark, and Manta Ray.

Ty Nick for having the MS fund raiser. My Momma passed away in 1999 from MS. And TY all that donated. MS Society has come a long way since 1999, due to donations. (((HUGS)))

Can we have an alternative way of obtaining small powders besides Bush Bucks?

I so agree with this change, however it will require a bit of a tech adjustment that I don't have time for in the near future. It's on the list though! Having a gnome up there would be very fun!

The brooms are very dexterous, aren't they? I'll consider at least slowing them down for the next update.

You weren't dreaming! Apologies for the confusion. Bush Whacker 2 offered a coupon code as a donation unlock for the Stream to End MS charity drive! You can read more about it on this thread I posted this morning

Players without an active VIP subscription should not be able to claim the event VIP rewards! If that was the case this past Dog Days event, then they can keep the rewards. I'll double-check this condition for the next event. I appreciate you bringing this to my attention!

Thank you for the pet/mount suggestions! I'll add them to the list :)

Sorry to hear about your mother. We are very proud to support the MS Society's Stream to End MS fundraiser!

Maybe. I'll consider adding a way, perhaps for a future Certified Alchrafter update.

I wasn't able to collect the VIP tewards at end of Dog Days and I'm not a VIP. I also know my daughter-in-law couldn't either.
