Hi everyone! Part 3 of the Disquiet event is here!

PLEASE READ THIS NEWSLETTER IN FULL.

If you wish to read the newsletter without getting story spoilers, then we recommend reading the dialogue event first before scrolling!!

An Important Reminder:

We do not tolerate any form of cheating in our events. This includes, but is not limited to:

• Multiaccounting, including getting friends to sign up just to send you items
• Exploits that are discovered that are not promptly reported, and are instead used to get a large quantity of items
  • You are also disallowed from telling other people about exploits that you find, other than staff when you report it
  • If you find an exploit by mistake, you will not be punished so long as you let us know immediately
• Hacking the website, or other people's accounts
• If you cheat in these ways, then we will find out. We do not tolerate it whatsoever, as it gives users an advantage over others. This includes getting a mass amounts of MYOs to use to make characters, as well as trading illegitimate items for art and characters.

If we catch you cheating, then you will be given a full-site ban, the length of which varying depending on the severity of the offense.

Dialogue Event:

Part 3 of the dialogue event can be read here! Be sure to read it before participating in the event.

The dialogue event was written by GalacticRing!

boss fights:

Part 3's boss is CAVE BEAR!

To participate in the boss fight you must do the Unexpected Fright prompt! The requirements and information on that prompt are listed in the section below this, doing so will reward you with some items + 1 point of damage to the boss. You can view everyones progress here! If this boss is deafeated before the next part, every participant will recieve the following: Cloudcoins x100, Random Item Box x1, Carnivorous Plant Seed x1.

As a reminder:

Boss fights are goals that the community must work towards together. The 'boss', whether it be an enemy or a task to be completed, will have a site-wide health bar that can be depleted (or filled) by completing prompts! The next part will be released regardless of if the boss fight is completed, but if the boss is defeated before then, everybody who participated will be able to claim a reward!

Prompts:

Here are the new prompts for part 3! As a reminder:

Story prompts must be completed in order, and can only be completed once per person. They must also be completed by you. While you can include other users' characters (with permission), the focal character(s) must be your own and other users cannot submit your drawing to the prompt.

Event prompts are repeatable, and can be completed as many times as you want during the event's duration, in order to obtain resources and other items. Other people can fulfill event prompts for you, as long as they feature your characters! Be sure to read the prompt rules thoroughly.

NEW SPECIES:

And now for the biggest announcement: introducing Clayfoxes!

[full size]

Clayfoxes are a species of small, tunnelling foxes adapted for digging! They also have a warrior subtype that are much larger and more imposing.
Their traits can be found here!

Clayfoxes use their own unique items. Their MYO slots are called Vessels, their add-ons are Diamonds, and their vouchers are Ambers! They also have their own specific redesign items.

The randomized MYO, Shattered Vessel, and the selfbreed MYO, Underglazed Vessel, are currently unable to be used. This will be updated soon, and the items are still able to be obtained.

Unlike the other species on The Space Station, Clayfox items cannot be purchased in shops. Instead, to obtain them, you must craft them! The recipes will be automatically unlocked for all users. All crafting recipes require the equivalant item from another species, as well as crafting materials and crops. As such, they are more scarce than other species.

Make sure to check which items from your inventory are being used before you hit 'craft'! With recipes that call for any item out of a small pool, you may use the inventory dropdown to deselect and reselect items as desired. If you do not do this, the recipe may use up something you wanted to keep!

We will not be refunding items used in crafting unintentionally. Be sure to pay attention.

Raffle design:

Part 3's raffle design can be seen below!

You can obtain one raffle ticket from the prize code at the end of the dialogue event. Additional tickets can be found through foraging!

Part 2's raffle design was won by aphe-lion!

MISC:

Image Blocking:

We have installed an extension that allows you to block images on-site! To use it, go to your settings and enable it. This will add a button that allows you to block an image, which will blur it across the site for you. You can then safely disable the extension without re-enabling the images. We hope that this is a helpful accessibility tool for items and graphics that you may not wish to see, for one reason or another.

Halloween Gacha:

A raffle-to-pay form for slots on our Halloween gachas will be posted in our Discord server on October 29th, 2PM EST. Raffle to pay slots will then be rolled on the 30th at 2PM.

Slots for both the USD gacha and the CC Pet gacha will open at 2PM EST. Once everybody has paid, rolling will be done in our Discord server!

As a reminder, USD slots will be $30 each, and CC slots will be 2,500 Cloud Coins each.

Thank you all for reading! If you have any questions that are not addressed in this newsletter, feel free to ask us in the help channel of our Discord server!

The next part will be released on November 10th. We hope you all enjoy it!
