Hi everyone! Part 5 of the Disquiet event is here - we're very sorry for the delays!

PLEASE READ THIS NEWSLETTER IN FULL.

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.

Without the use of food items, each character will recieve 3 energy per day, and you can change your character up 3 times per day. Rewards from encounters are now granted to the active character's inventory - remember to check there if you're unsure of where something may have gone!

Additionally, some encounters now have the chance to inflict status conditions onto characters. Some options on some encounters also require specific items to be in your character's inventory to be chosen.

Foraging may drop:

• Crafting Materials
• Cooking Items
• Misc Items
• Currency

Trait Adjustments/Reminders:

• Multiple Shaped Clouds (CRC)/Unique Clouds (CRC): Shaped Clouds (multiple or unique) no longer requires the clouds to completely cover the tailtip. However, there still needs to be a shape close to that area, to show there was at least an effort! This is because some shapes are difficult to fully cover the tip, so we wished to give people some leeway!
• Flat Soda (SDC)/Frozen Soda (SDC): Sodacats with Flat Soda or Frozen Soda do not require fizz at the tip of their tails! They can still have them, but it is not required!
• Missing Head/Face (all): Previously, it was required that all characters with this trait still have ears (or horns, for Guppymanders). However, from now on, so long as the head is completely missing or replaced, ears/horns are no longer required. If just the face is missing, and the rest of the head is present, ears/horns must still be there!!
• Shaped Tail (CRC): If the Cirrocanius has a Shaped Tail, and the tailtip is made of fur (or other non-sky material), then clouds must be present at the "tip" of the sky portion!

misc:

• Reminder about our staff artist and guest artist applications!! You can find more information on our January Monthly Newsletter!

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!
