Advent Calendar, new Christmas Eggs!

Post by stefanol »

It's 1st December, first day of Advent. We have prepared some things for you to do during that time.


1. Advent Calendar

If you celebrate Advent, then you definitely know the concept of Advent Calendar. Every day, one new thing gets uncovered. Apparently, there are some troubles in Virtuadopt world, with Christmas preparations. For the next 24 days, visit the following link:
and read the christmas story. Word says some neat surprises may be distributed on certain days.

2. New Monthly Eggs

After the Halloween eggs hatched, it was already known that new ones will appear. This time, you have not two, but three eggs for adoption.
AdoptableAdoptableAdoptable
Are you curious as to what will they hatch into? So am I! Go to regular adopt section to get one for yourself.

The eggs won't hatch earlier than on 24th of December. They may hatch a little later though. Again, the more levels the eggs have, the bigger their chance of turning into shiny is. The system may not be exactly same as with Halloween Eggs, though.

I have addressed the issues concerning mass-adopting of the monthly eggs. To partially prevent something like that, there has been cool down period introduced - after adopting each Christmas Egg, you need to wait 1 hour, before you will be able to adopt another one. I know, that it means you will have to wait 3 hours, until you are able to get all three of them - but hey, you have almost whole month. It shouldn't be such a problem. Also, don't try to bypass this limit, I warn you.

3. Contests

The past three Art, Writing, and Creativity contests have just ended. You no longer have possibility to edit, and submit artworks. If, your work didn't suit either The Rules, or Contest Rules, it may be discarded. Don't rush me, I will try to grade all the entries ASAP.

Soon a new contest, Christmas themed will appear, stay tuned.

*whispers*In a few days, something new may appear in slot machine, this post will get updated then.*whispers*


This update wouldn't be possible without both Nautilus, and UkeSora. And mods, of course :). Kudos to them.

Ryou_Kimura, you are allowed to adopt one in every hour.
So you can get a maximum of 24 eggs a day.

Thanks for the updates, stef!
I love the eggs. *eats the gingerbread one* <3

Nobody forbids you to get more of them, in reasonable amounts. Some people just adopted like, 100 of each Halloween Eggs, just because they were free.... and then they were spamming the GTS with them.

UkeSora, ok. but i don't need that much XD
i just wanted to be sure that i don't msisunderstand the limit thing. if the limit was about the hours or about the number of eggs. 12 are more than enough for me anyway XD

i want to see what's inside X3 i want to see your art X3

At the moment, yes. The diary will just contain the previous days story, in case you'd need to check something, or you arrived later.

IcyDragon, stefanol, we all want to know who wins and who get's what^^
but such things really need time...5 or 7 pages with entries in every category is much...and think of the stories...to read all and judge them need the most time i think. we just have to wait^^
