I don't know if anyone posted about this. Sorry if it is a duplicate but I have a very sick piggie, four pregnant goats that are trying to make me crazy...er, and really no time to hunt for it. Also please forgive any weird vocabulary or off track thoughts. Very little sleep for almost 2 weeks...I am a tad zoomy!

In the lead up to the GC in preprod I tried for Lug in the GF as part of the VIP perk. It took almost 70 passes to finally get him in a GF. After, with the full bonus of 1 free GF for every 2 bought, I got him almost immediately. On my 4th GF. I wanted to see if that was a fluke so I kept trying. It wasn't. I got 3 Lugs in 12 passes. That is 6 bought GF and 3 free. So in total, 3 Lug in 9 GF as opposed to 1 Lug in more than 30 GF. Unless it was a coding error, something changes when it goes live or just pure dumb luck. I would definitely wait for after the festivities start to buy your GF. Which makes sense anyways because of the bonus but in case someone is impatient.

On the art for Chompy. (I like that name, it suits it better than Carnivourous or whatever they are calling it.) A couple of the heads remind me of the troll creature in the movie Willow. Definitely a bit over the top in the scary department for a family game. I would think a simple beak would be a lot less intimidating. That said, with the state of movies and TV these days I think most people will cope.

Kind of curious:
Let's say you're VIP. How does the entire pre-prod testing qualification work? Do you get a PM with a link, or maybe there's a button you need to hit somewhere?
I got a game offer to test VIP for a month for 5 passes, so I took it, and now I'd really like to know. Thanks! c:

want to eat manure like Liana?
I mean if it's a carnivore it kinda needs it's own special fodder

A Hestia gifting carnivore plant...just dang

Leaving boxes, expelling horse from EC and reimbursement

If your horse is expelled form the box it occupied because of wear of the box or removal of the EC:

* Either you are reimburesered the remaining amount of the stay (as before)
* If the refund is not possible, your horse'll be transfered to a box of the same quality (1*, 2**, 3**) and with the same equipment (water through, shower) in the Ow's equestrian centre for the remaining period of it's stay. You can cancel the stay for 7 days after the transfer.
Stay cancellations are not eligible for a refund.

Extension of stay

To prevent your horses from getting stuck too long in abandoned EC's, we decided to limit the extentions of the stay. Now you can only extend a horse's stay to 30 days from the end of the stay.

New landscapes and filtres added to Ow's helios' ray.

Changed appearance of "Best breeders", "Best horses" and "Horses" icons.

Plants
There are four kinds of seeds, each with different times of growth and the probability of gain.
There's also a divine plant, that grows each time a different plant is harvested and when you give her a flies. (Flies replace fertilizer, which was last time. Flies can be purchased by passes.)
Finally there's a community plant that grows by one point each time the player harvested any other plant. From the community plant, you can get Ow's Helios' Ray.

You can buy seeds, water or flies at the start of the contest.
There'll also be a "Horticultural packs" on weekends + Flies Boxes on last weekend.

Improved design of the event:



Adjustments:
- You can help your friends by offering them water.
You can help only those palyer, who asked for help. (Like on Pinatas)
Player can ask for help only 4x a day.
Offering water to friends is free.

- Divine plant needs flies to grow (instead of fertilizer)
- You can skip the daily quests by offering BMI to Ow
- You can get more flies by daily quests
- You can use personalized UFO (probably like decorations were)
- Horticultural pack will give more water. (25 instead of 20, change of gain for seeds has been adjusted)

First four rows from the top (above the first red line) are rewards for yellow seeds.
The next two lines for green seeds.
The next two lines for red seeds.
The last two lines are rewards for orange seeds.

Collect different types of plants and win gifts.

*Crossing fingers not to get censored because wrote "Divine" again*
New divine horse Carnivorus
(Not sure about it's gender)



Carnivorus is one of the Plant Kingdom horses.

She can be watered instead of drinking.

This horse's skills increase when you give them Droppings. The skills increase depends on the amount of Droppings the horse is given, as well as the season in the game.

When she reaches 2000 skill points, she can be pruned. Her skills will then be reset to 0, but she'll give you 1 x Hestia's gift!
This mare cannot be sold.

Liana since it works the same, you just have to get more skill points for Chompy. I can't remember how many skill points I gained with Liana on preprod, but the max during summer was 20 something a day? Or 40 maybe? I think someone calculated it to taking about a month to get the Ray, so figure on it taking over a month to get a Hestia's from Chompy.

we don't know when it will come until Admin sends us a notice like the other servers got. There are 3 servers that currently have it (starting November for them), and in a few days a 4th server, the Russian server, will get it as well. We don't know the order or speed at which they are introducing it either so we'll just have to see

Thank you! Maybe I should have introduce myself. I'm from the czech version. I play howrse there already 4.5 years and ours is one of the servers which got these unpleasant news. Do you know which 2 other unfortunate servers have had the change?
In fact it destroyed our games and I'm looking for somewhere new because I'm not ready to say goodbye to howrse. But it would be frustrating to spend time building new account somewhere, where they would stop it very soon also...

servers that got it are the Italian and Bulgarian servers.
If you're looking to start an account on another server that won't have the change for awhile I couldn't even begin to guess where a safe choice would be since we aren't sure the speed at which they are introducing this.

droppings not manure

Chompy seems to be a decent divine, does anyone know about how many passes they used on the plant promo last time?

If I can actually look at it every day is another matter entirely. Maybe if I could rename it to Little Horror it could work
Must admit that the smirky grins on those err "lips" of his has me laughing. Maybe he's slowly growing on me.

I don't know if I will try and get him. As I recall those promos tend to be expensive to finish?
And I wonder just how much he eats....as in will he eat the stash I need to create manure?

until we learn otherwise it could be the same for Chompy.

Ok, now that we're nicknaming it Chompy, every time I see the name I think of Chomper from Land Before Time. Such a cute little sharp tooth (T-Rex)!

New divines,,

These divines appeared to be some kind of "present" for players of that new Owlient game,, (Horse Adventure: Tales of Entria)

This horse cannot be sold.

Wikaïla
Every day, when awakened, Wikaïla has the chance to find a piece of Philosopher's Stone. Once you'll find 16 pieces, Wikaïla will offers you Philosopher's stone.
This horse cannot be sold.

About this that was posted the other day. How would owlient know that you play the app?

Interesting how their tied to that new game.
Wonder just what you'd have to do, to unlock them here.

Maybe it's something like back when we had the Howrse Cup?

I tried that new game. It's not for me. The controls I had to use on the iPad drove me balmy, so I dropped i after a very short testdrive.

I't a good question. We would indeed need to somehow link our info to both games. smudge1 has a point there.
