Sounds like a lot of fun!

Oh derp, I misread the festival post! I thought the zone itself was gonna be released in 3 days. But it is not! Derp derp derp derp! ~.~'

This will be the first one I have ever experienced!!

Please don't cost diamonds o: I really hope the minigame doesn't cost diamonds. It is a real stab to the heart. I don't even know what the haunted house or wonderland were like because I have no access to diamonds

Start Time: Wednesday, March 16th at 12:00 PM End Time: Monday, March 28th at 11:59 PM Due to Easter's very early timing this year, we will be merging Easter celebrations into an extended Fortune Festival. This year's event will be very similar to last month's Week of Love Event. In lieu of a Festival Zone, we will have some unique Avatar Items, Themed Pets, a new limited-release Mutation, and a fun little mini-game planned that will sorta be like the Haunted House/Winter Wonderland. In regards to the Spring Festival, our plan is to have it begin sometime late April or early May and it will be the full-fledged festival with an exploration zone, egg hunts, etc. New Mutation Released Lucky Dust We have released a new Mutation for all species. This Trait is different than other Traits in that it can ONLY be given to a pet via the Generator. Additionally, once the Fortune Festival event is over, it will become restricted and will no longer be able to be Generated. This means that the only pets who will be able to have this Trait are the ones that were Generated with it during the Fortune Festival event or pets who are the offspring of these pets. Our goal here is to create something fun and exclusive for passionate breeders so we hope everyone has fun with it! It will also be an opportunity for players to use up those stockpiles of essences. New Avatar Items Easter Bulbori Clover Imp Horseshoe Imp Ladybug Imp Irish Clerical Robes Irish Clerical Circlet Assorted Backgrounds For this event, we have released a bunch of new Avatar Items! They can mostly be found by playing The Lucky Pot (described below). However, they will also be available via Forum Games. The Lucky Pot Scratch Card A brand new feature, The Lucky Pot Scratch Card will make its maiden appearance throughout this event. Similar to actual Scratch Cards, the goal of the game is to scratch off prizes and match 3 like prizes to win that prize. However, there are a few twists that help make the game more fun and help to award more prizes! Themed Bonus Bar: The most prominent feature of the game is the Themed Bonus Bar. For each game that you play where you do not win a Themed Pet, this bar will fill up. As it fills up, the chances of you winning a Themed Pet increase! Once you win a Themed Pet, the bar resets and you can fill it up again. This not only helps to award more Themed Pets, but also helps to prevent long draughts without winning. Rollover Prizes: For the lesser prizes of the game, the amounts that you find from previous games roll over to future games. For example, this means that if you only uncover 2 of one of these prizes, this will rollover to future games and you will only require one more to win that prize. This feature helps to ensure that you can continue winning constant prizes over multiple games. Bonus Scratches: Find two of a big prize but run out of Scratches? Well you can purchase a bonus and get 4 additional Scratches to find that third match! Note: We are also looking into adding a cheaper version of the game with cheaper prizes. Diamond Sale We will also be having a Diamond Sale to celebrate the Fortune Festival event! The following will be for sale through Sunday, March 20th: Diamonds: 500 per $4.00 (20% Discount) The remaining items will be on sale beginning Saturday 3/19 and running through the remainder of the event. Stable Purchase: 400 (20% Discount) [Greater Genetic Mutator]: 120 (40% Discount) [Greater Pet Dye]: 90 (40% Discount) [Philter of Infertility]: 60 (40% Discount) [Magical Pie]: 60 (40% Discount) [Philter of Gender Swapping]: 60 (40% Discount) [Prismatic Philter]: 48 (40% Discount) [All Mystical Essences]: 750 (25% Discount) Forum Games and Pick-A-Door We will be having a Pick-A-Door game on Thursday, March 17th in celebration of St. Patrick's Day. We will also be having an Eggling Auction on Sunday, March 27th in celebration of Easter. Additionally, Faiona will be running various Forum Games throughout the event that everyone will have a chance to participate in for some unique prizes! So you definitely won't want to miss out on those. Other Game: Pick a Door Other Game: Eggling Auction Forum Game: Egg Design Forum Game: Create a Lucky Pet Forum Game: Sudoku

YAY!

Buying diamonds with cash isn't the only way to get them. You can use gold to buy them from other players, you can also trade pets or items to other players for diamonds.
