Congratulations to the winner of last month's Monthly Contest!
"Snow whipped around, Cyren's scarf clinging to her neck for dear life, secure enough in its position but ends fluttering in the wind as though it was attempting to escape. She would usually morph into something like a Kikitsu in these temperatures, something with fur at the least. But something took priority over the biting cold. An ice sculpture. She'd been fiddling about with temperature magic. And she could already manipulate water a bit. Why not? And what better subject than someone who she knew the look of very well, whose appearance could constantly be checked and re-checked in..."

New ARPG Submission Formatting

We have completely revamped the ARPG submission page with an all new format! This new format will now allow you to readily add titles, descriptions, and tags to your pieces right as you upload them, instead of after approval! Furthermore, this new system has some very important backend changes that will make it much easier to implement certain features reliant on art in the future.

Please note: the URL associated with the ARPG submission form has been updated as well. As of now, the old URL will redirect to the new page, but we recommend updating bookmarks to the new URL as needed.

Additionally, alongside some backend changes, the following updates to Realm Familiarity and Origin Story quests have been implemented:
- Realm Familiarity quests may now have background characters tagged on submission. The Lythian listed in the first tagged slot will be the one who receives quest completion credit.
- Origin Story quests may now only be completed for one character at a time. As with Realm Familiarity quests, background characters can still be featured and tagged on submission. The Lythian listed in the first tagged slot will be the one who receives quest completion credit.

Finally, you are now able to tag companions and NPCs in your pieces, now making it all the easier to keep track of who is in your art! Companions and NPCs cannot earn things like badges or experience, but the ability to tag them pairs with the next following change.

Art Galleries for Companions and NPCs

Companions and NPCs now have their own on-site index galleries! When tagged in a piece, it will now show up on their pages, much like on a Lythian's index entry. You may also go back and tag previously submitted pieces with NPCs and companions!

Note: NPCs will always visibly display all submissions they are tagged in, regardless of other visibility settings.

Removal of "Commissioner/Artist Cut"

Due to a multitude of factors, such as the updated implementation of realm familiarity experience and attempts to streamline manual tasks, we have decided to remove the Commissioner/Artist cut previously applied to commissioned works. Going forward, all art will solely give currency to the person who submits the piece! This additionally means that experience will always be in full to the featured Lythian(s).

Moving forward, distribution of currency earned by submissions should be discussed between users involved in the commission exchange, and we will not be intervening unless given proof of an individual not carrying through with deals (ie, promising Loonoles from a piece but not following through on it, which would be considered scamming).

Lost Bells Prize Expansion

The plushie and frame tier prizes (Bell Plushie and Arcade Frame) have been added to Lost Bells. Additionally, the score requirement for the Chime Fish Sticker prize has been slightly lowered to accomodate the new prize tiers.

There is no version update associated with this; Lost Bells v.1.4.0.0 remains current.

Spring Events

Our next event is scheduled for March this year. Some recurring event features that happen February, such as Cupid's Helpers, are also scheduled to happen alongside the March event, and will not be ocurring in February. Thank you for your understanding and we hope you enjoy February's upcoming updates!

Known Issues

There is a known issue after this update wherein some pages of the art gallery load exceptionally slowly. This is our top priority to fix as quickly as possible.
 - UPDATE: This should be noticeably improved.

Reminder regarding site contests Before we dive into the winners and end credits for the FoF, we'd like to remind all of our users who participate in any of our site contests that you need to read the rules of the contest. Not just skim them, really read them. In particular, you should be keeping in mind the following rules (these rules carry over to all site contests, so reading and understanding them will really benefit you). "Entries must relate to Wajas in some way, you may explain how when you post your entry." You don't have to be an artist, you don't have to draw a Waja, you can do something as loose as a color scheme that follows a specific Waja (and explain that's what it is / who it follows), or even around an item we have on site. Either way, it is mandatory all entries relate back to Wajas in some way. Going forward, any entries that don't clearly relate to Wajas will not be eligible for any prizes, including the participation prize, without notice .

The bait has been hooked, fishing line cast and we have caught shermanball for this weeks aquarium contest winner!

....Congrats!

¢¢Remember, make sure you feed and care for your fish/tank and collect your nessies bonus daily, if you want a chance to win next week!
