Amor,

Dear Amor,

Rather than commenting in the forum, my first thought is to send you a maramail. Since that's no longer possible, here we are. How was your Hawaii trip? What did you do? How did your dogs react when you got home? How are they doing?

Things have been going awry one after the other for the last few months, so life feels hectic. You leaving Mara kind of fit in with that theme. The year of the snake will bring a lot of change which is always difficult. Hope you're doing well.

Well, I've decided that the Labyrinth isn't worth it at all since the Charms and Voodoo Dolls shops barely stock. It would be bad enough if they stocked and I was spending RP/BP to go back and forth between levels and failing most of the time. But since I burned through my stockpile of charms and dolls and can never buy any unless it's overpriced items from user shops, it's not worth it. I wanted to at least get past level 57 of Eleka Castle goals (yes, more levels were recently added - yay!) but I'm not spending 1.5mil for a charm I need for a 10% chance of making the goal after failing three times in a row. So maybe next year. I'll just keep hoarding magnets, codes and ransoms until I can get charms and voodoo dolls again.

Sixteen new tattoos were released in various shops around Marada on the 9th, and now 17 new items were released in the tattoo shop today. Kind of makes that year of grinding Wonky for tattoos for Lowlyhood goals seem like a total waste of effort. Of course, when new items come into a shop, the shop stops stocking at all, so good luck to those trying to buy anything. Maybe in several months.

Anyway, Ian commented that there will be more face makeup and really, more of everything being released later in the year so I think I'll put Lowlyhood goals off until next year instead of wasting Wonky on trying to get all the retired stuff. I've learned my lesson with the tattoos. I don't have a lot of time to play so I have to save Wonky to accomplish things that wouldn't be possible otherwise. *Edit from my future self: the Shimmer face and eye make ups don't count towards the goals so I guess I have a lot of Wonky to do still.

It is exciting that goals are expanding and I'm hoping there will be more rewards for pet stats coming. Glad to see all the updates lately. Mara is still my favorite escape aside from Kdrama. ^_^ Wish you were here. Hope you're having a fulfilling time whatever you are doing.

We're in the middle of a glitched weather event and I was just thinking about how you left the site right as they were adding a whole bunch of new stuff. Seeing as how much time I'm spending on this, maybe you made a smart choice! But I wish you had left your account active so I could at least send you stuff.

Totally unrelated, but I was playing Extract Enpiah and I think they should make another gift box for it that gives you double the moves. Most times I play, I have four moves and don't get any more. Way too little.

Anyway, the Easter Egg Hunt is coming up and you're going to miss it. But I hope you are having lots of fun out there in the real world!

This month has been so busy! I think I'm a bit burnt out from the Easter perks. I took advantage of the free education/training for too many of my pets and though it's awesome to level them up, it somehow tires me out.

Ian launched Gumballs Galore with a creative event and I've been having fun launching gumballs and discovering planets when I should be getting things done. Haha.

May 16, 2025

I've been launching gumballs like crazy and have 314 in orbit right now. There are 121,454 gumballs on the launch log so far. That means an average of 386 people have launched a similar amount. Probably a few over achievers have launched way more. I wonder where I am in the rankings.

Anyway, I'm ready for the solar flare to wrap up. The chances of discovering a planet have noticeably decreased in the last few days and instead of a dopamine hit, I'm getting disappointed and tired. It would have been better to start off with sparce discoveries and have it slowly increase as the event goes on to build momentum instead of slowing it. Ah well, I'm still playing, aren't I? Is this self loathing I feel?

On May 19th it was announced that pets who completed university courses would receive one of several new globes. This renewed my enthusiasm and I threw all of my pets into Uni. Unfortunately, many of them need three days to finish a course and the solar flare ended two days later so... that was a bit disappointing.

On the plus side, the event is over and we now have low gravity. Wonder what that will entail. It would be cool if level 20 astronauts had some type of advantage, but I know that is not going to happen.

One Eye, my blind chicken, passed away today. She had been having respiratory issues lately and we treated it with antibiotics, but it never quite went away. She bounced back for awhile and was eating well, but then lost her appetite again. This morning she died in my arms and while I'm happy for her, I'm sad for me!
