Minipet Island Land War - Part 3
The King is dead! Long live the new King!
We regret to inform you that our beloved King, the renowned Baspinar XII has perished. The castle was in mourning last night after genetic testing was completed by the Enpiah DNA laboratory proving that the remains that people have been fishing out of the Maradan river did in fact belong to our missing King Baspinar XII and not his great great multi-great grandfather Baspinar I as was formerly believed.
News has reached us that the new King, Baspinar XIII was immediately crowned during the night in an emergency ceremony at the castle. Not wanting to delay in these worrying times the normal public ceremonies and celebrations were set aside in order that Marada should once again have a King to protect us. As I'm sure every Maradan is aware, Baspinar XIII is the (rather unfortunately uglier) identical twin brother of our former handsome king the late Baspinar XII. Born just nineteen seconds later than his brother, he was natuarally next in line for the throne.
A proclamation has been issued this morning from our new King:
My fellow Maradans, I bring to you this morning the sad news of my brother's death. He is believed to have met his end at the hands of evil minions of the false Queen Eleka. This dreadful witch is sure to bring nothing but harm to our peaceful kingdom, and we do not recognise any claim by her to the Southern lands!
The question now remains as to what shall be done about this threat to Marada. As I believe in modern methods, and fairness for all our subjects, I have decided that the question of action against this traitorous interloper should be handled by the Maradan parliament rather than by myself. All Maradans are therefore called immediately to vote at the castle in a special referendum on the subject of war!
You can now vote in the Election inside the castle for what should happen next.
There is a new Editorial for you to read.
We have started to send out the Email Newsletter. Please note that the vault will be activated in a few days, when most emails have been sent out so that its fair to everyone.

NEW WORLD
With Queen Eleka's return and the strange disappearance of King Baspinar, it was possible for Queen Eleka's Castle to reopen. Its really deserted right now, but as the Queen gets more settled, I'm sure more will be happening there...
We would like to thank everyone for their patience over the past couple of weeks while we completed very important Site Maintenance. The majority of the maintenance has been completed, so we shouldn't have any major downtime or errors again for a while. We hope you can now notice the improvements around the site, in terms of speed and bugs being fixed.
As the Plot/War event will begin soon, we thought it was time to release the new Layout for the whole event. The event is scheduled to last until the end of March - beginning of April and the war will involve new quests, restocking and of course, the new Battle Arena that will be out soon.
There will be another Email Newsletter sent over the next few weeks to let everyone know about the plot. Each newsletter will have a special code where you can collect free Account Upgrade credit and MP from the Vault!
Minipet Island Land War - Part 2
Breaking news! The day we've all been hoping will never come is here.... Queen Eleka has returned with this messsage...
I, Queen Eleka, have returned and thus proclaim myself the only and supreme ruler of all Maradan Lands South of the River, including Minipet Island and Jenoa. These lands, which have been righfully mine since time began were falsly claimed by the tyrant Baspinar I who despicably placed me under a spell of Banishment so he could steal my realm and my property!
I am disgusted to see what has become of my formerly proud realm, and shall shortly be bringing the Dark Side of Marada back to it's former glory. Too long has it been forgotten about and reviled! This must change!
I demand that all 'light' Marapets vacate my territory immediately! Especially Angel Murfins. Ugh! I will not tolerate goodness and light where I might accidentally see it.
Dark marapets are to prepare to report to my castle in order to serve their Queen. Together we will build an empire that will outdo any that has come before. We will bring Marada into a new age! So powerful and great that our enemies will quake before us like the snivelling worms that they are! Prepare, Marada, for our glorious future!
As all Maradans are aware, the search for our King, Basinar XII continues. Maradan police report that they are following up all leads but as yet have no definite information as to his whereabouts. A statement was issued this afternoon that they are looking into rumours of a diamond trade that occured yesterday. It is alleged that several distinctive diamonds which may have been the famed 'Baspinar Diamonds' (originally imported from far away lands and set into the royal crown 400 years ago by the late King Baspinar IX) were noticed passing through the trades.
We would also advise that everyone be particulary watchful of their marapets at this worrying time. Reports are coming in of many strange disapearances in the area south of Dukka Caves. Several angel murfins have been reported missing with no trace, and also one burnt chibs (though we think that one may be a hoax and now in hiding after it changed into a yellow xoi during a small accident with the portal)
Finally we must ask that all Maradans now help us in a vitally important task - we need YOUR help in searching for the King. Search your marahomes, look around you as you travel... The King must be found, and with every Maradan working together we cannot fail to succeed!

The Trades are now back! Sorry that they were down for so long, but they have been totally changed to run much faster. Thanks to account upgraders, we have bought a new server for the Trades system and I've spent two days recoding the trades to work better. The old scripts were not good enough for the amount of players online and the amount of use trades get, with trades sometimes taking as long as 8 seconds to load and 59 seconds to search. This has been totally changed, and you shouldn't see any part of trades take more than 1 second to load, unless the whole site is experiencing problems.
There is also a Trade Refunds link at trades for you to get back your mp, rp and bp you had offered on people's trades before trades were closed.
We would like to give you a quick update with our Maintenance so far. We have completed a whole site recode, which means that we were able to fix every known glitch, error and bug around the site. All we have left to fix now is Promote Marapets, Trades and broken Avatars. There is still the ongoing problem of sudden Server Errors randomly occuring and shutting off the whole site for a few seconds. We are well aware of it, and its nothing to do with any glitches around the site or slow servers. We have found out what is causing it and its currently being worked on so that the problem will be gone in a couple of days. We have also fixed one of our Image Servers which had been broken for nearly 2 weeks, and have also added another new image server, so images should be running a lot more instantly. Marasites, MaraUploads and MaraJournals will be getting extensive work very shortly, but we're first trying to get the whole of Marapets working as it should. We'd liek to thank you for your patience over the past 2 weeks, but as you should notice already, every part of the site that is open is working perfectly - just in time for our War.

Site Maintenance
We'd like to thank you all for your patience while the site went down for maintenance. The downtime was actually longer than planned because it was more successful than we had hoped, allowing us to get more done while the site was down. The site has now moved to its new network, which you should by the end of the week notice has helped to improve the site's reliability. Its still not 100% complete because we're still testing and monitoring results and recoding to keep improving performance. Our network sites, like MaraUploads will not be on the new network yet, so if you change your password it will not change on these sites. These will be updated soon though. If you find any errors or glitches that are new, please report them right away.
The Forums have been updated too. We hope you like their new design!
Here is the new Plushie Ercuw!
NEW FLASH GAME
Today's new Flash Game has just been released. It can be played 3 times a day with a maximum payout of 1,500MP per game. Newth Box can now be found at the puzzle games category of the games section.
We would like to apologise for the downtime we've been having randomly for the past couple of days. The issue will be solved tomorrow, which will mean that at sometime tomorrow (Thursday) we will be going offline for a couple of hours for Site Maintenance. This will be a major upgrade for us, so please be patient tomorrow while we get it all ready. There may be a few new errors/glitches that appear tomorrow. Just let us know of them asap and we'll get them fixed right away.
Minipet Island Land War - Part 1
Dark times may be ahead for Marada... There have been many worrying events in the last 24 hours, which we feel we cannot keep hidden any longer. However frightening it is, you, the Maradan public have a right to know.
The first sign of trouble was when the residents of the Undying Woods were woken in the early hours of the morning by Elger having a fit. One of the newths (a very brave one!) was sent to find out what the trouble was this time and reported back that Elger was 'extremely displeased' (that's not the exact words she used, but we have to keep things clean) that she was no longer the most evil being in Marada. The newth then stuttered something about 'Queen Eleka' and ran away crying before we could get any more information from him.
As a few of you may know if you've been reading the Maradan encyclopedia set, Queen Eleka once ruled the dark side of Marada. Legends of the horrors of her reign are still told today, tales of a dark castle where nightmares can become reality, tales of a queen so beautiful and so evil that Marada has never again seen the like in a thousand years. For it was one thousand years ago today that the good King Baspinar the First finally defeated Eleka and banished her from our lands.
Naturally, mention of Queen Eleka concerned us greatly, and so several more newths were sent south from Dukka Caves to investigate the ruins of the Dark Castle. Unfortunately, although 24 hours have now passed, we have not heard back from them. We can only hope that they have run in terror and have not met some terrible fate.
Of course by now I'm sure you are wondering why, if all this has been happening, there has not been some proclamation from our King, Baspinar XII, to reassure us of his protection. We regret to have to inform you that an hour ago we were contacted by a palace aide who told us that Baspinar has now been missing for over 12 hours! The castle and grounds have been searched thoroughly, and the search is now widening into Puchala Village and the foothills of Biala.
We would like to assure you that there really is no need for panic at this time. Although the King's location is not yet known, it is possible that there may still be some simple explanation for all of this. We'll keep you updated on any new events as they happen.
The Random Events have been recoded and are now back.
The Space Quell has been released!
Pets can finally Die again. If your pet is neglected, you will get a random event saying you have 7 days to cure your pet. After those 7 days, if you haven't cured your pet you will get another random event where your pet has moved to the Gates of the Graveyard, which has just been recoded. You then have only 7 days to recover your pet. After that, it is moved to the Graveyard where *anyone* can pick up your Zombie pet and own it forever.
