Disquiet: Intermission 1

Posted 1 year ago :: Last edited 1 year ago by Digimon

Hi everyone! Our first Intermission for 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:

Intermission 1 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!

Winter advent calander Guest Artists:

First our winter advent has been extended from 25 days to the full 31! With that we've chosen 8 GAs to help us, Bloodborne, Chooliw, ColdRising, dadada_darling, hellpriest, kingscreek, Lunaray10, and meow ! If you didn't get chosen this round we plan on having more GA opportunities soon! We'd like to host some GA only adopt batches in the future :]

As a reminder claims for our annual winter advent calendar will go live on November 15th! There will be both raffle-to-pay slots and first-come, first-served slots. There will be 31 days to claim, and they will be $20 each.

The raffle to pay form will open on 11/13 at 2pm EST, and close and be rolled on 11/14 2pm EST.
The FCFS slots will open 11/15 at 2pm EST.

As usual, these will be themed mystery designs that will be revealed and distributed throughout December.

Adjustments to Encounters:

To start we'll be switching encounters from user based to character based. This means users will have to own a character to do encounters from this day onwards. Characters may only be swapped 3 times a day, and they each have their own individual pool of energy. We will be lowering the base encounter energy from 5 to 3, meaning (without the use of food) users with 3 or more characters will have a total of 9 energy, rather than 5 a day. We have a few reasons for this but mostly:

We will be adding character jobs sometime after the new year. This will allow us to restrict encounters to characters with specific jobs, via an item in their inventory.
We can make failing encounters apply status effects to characters.
Unfortunately, most cheating in events is done via encounters. By requiring characters new accounts will be unable to do encounters, this will (hopefully) discourage people a bit more from cheating.

As a note setting your character for the first time will consume one of your daily character changes. We will also be slowly rewording encounters to be more in the perspective of characters, rather than NPCs.

Note that any items required to enter an encounter location must be in the selected character's inventory to enter it.

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!
