We've just added about 50 new clothing items to our wardrobe. They should be easier to find too, since you can now sort "newest-oldest" (and also by price). Let us know what you think.
Teleportation Tokens: Rascalmom said "Are we honestly going to have to pay to teleport later? Yikes!" — Answer: no! You will not have to pay for teleports. The Teleportation skill is part of the game and use of it will just cost you energy as it does now. (In fact, adding new levels of Teleportation Skill is coming: you'll be able to set more than one teleport point and [probably some other stuff].)
What we'll be adding is the ability to teleport to any arbitrary location in the game at any time, via the location pages (and probably some other means). You can do this for free, but it will take some amount of real world time to get there. During that time, you'll be able to chat, but not do other stuff in the game. Or, you can spend a token to make that teleport instant as well. The number of times you can do this per day will be limited (and there will be a "cooldown" period) so people with a lot of credits to spend won't have an unlimited advantage in getting around.
SugarQb, I love my new Short Ballet Skirt -- thank you -- but I can't wear it over my pants; it works in the wardrobe, but when I look back at my avatar on the home page, the skirt is gone. Bug or feature?
Hburger: "Is $ - £ conversion all set up and good to go without any hidden charges?"
The charges are all in USD$: we don't charge anything for conversion or anything like that, but your credit card company might. We're looking into direct support for other currencies (and payment types) in the future.
Oho, stoot, thanks for teleportation notes. makes sense. Thanks so much for being so responsive to all of us:) Now open the game....please, whine, whine lol
Jk Stoot, you all rock and we'll all be thrilled whenever you choose to open
All of my credit cards charge a fee if I purchase something in a foreign currency. Call each one's customer service to find out how much the fees are; in my case, AmEx charged the least, strangely enough. BTW, you can't get around this by using Paypal, since the credit card gets charged in the foreign currency anyway.
So, stoot, just b/c I know you are monitoring this thread, wanna give us a clue as to when game will open again? Today? If so, in one hour? two? this evening? tomorrow? Sorry if I am a pest *hangs head sheepishly*
YAY!!! for bunny slippers. Thanks for answering all our questions Stoot. You and the devs are the best. Will patiently wait for opening. (yeah, ok, that's a bald faced lie, i will sit here and hit refresh till it opens) LOL *hug, kiss stoot*
Hooray for new clothes (I especially love my new shirt)! I also think PayPal should be added to the payment system.... but, that's not going to stop me from shopping now :)
Just wanted to say thanks Stoot for being so prompt with the answers and explaining so clearly. I know sooner or later the creases will get ironed out. I don't know where you find the patience to bear with our quickfire questions sometimes!
Its great to hear about the new teleport plans. Am looking forward to Beta - I hope its as great for you as it will be for us!
OMG, I'm such a clothes horse.....ermmm.....can we get some granny boots sometime in the future pretty please?
And fishnet stockings would be awesome.
So would a pink fuzzy robe and hair curlers to accessorize with those adorable bunny slippers.
Thanky, thanky, thankies
Just spotted the new boots in the wardrobe. thats fab. Ages ago I said I missed boots as a footwear choice, and I probably wasn't the only one, so I'm well happy now :)
Yeah, we had some fiddling to do in order to get the shoes working under pantlegs while and the boots going on top. Now that that's set up we can add all manner of boots at will. The next thing along those lines to sort out is hats and hair … now *that* will be a beautiful day :)
Bob Apple: "Stoot - whats it like there at the moment bearing in mind you're about to have your first beta test? bit frantic?"
Only a small bit more frantic than usual: we're having to move some hardware around (yes, even in the cloud!) but that will be done shortly and then a bit more testing and we'll be set. The swap will cause a temporary site outage, but not very long.
