1. Yep!
2. It allows player choice! If we gave M'ship today then players might not be able to play for 2 days and then it gets wasted. The code allows the player to choose when they want to use it and on which account. You may also gift it to a friend if you don't plan to use it yourself, for example, if you might have a recurring subscription with no plans to cancel it.

Hey everyone, here to share a quick update before the weekend (post has been updated):

Following recent server outages which caused disruption when attempting log-in from certain regions, we've been working closely with our system administrators to ensure all players are now able to log back into the game as normal.

The team has made some minor adjustments to our authentication services to ensure that further reports of disruption when logging in have been rectified. Game stability over the last 48 hours looks promising, and we will continue to monitor stability over the weekend to ensure that things are fully back to normal and to fix them promptly if anything more happens.

Before the weekend, we would like to let you know that we are still in the process of reviewing our make good options for players. Next week, we'll set out and communicate our plan for this as we're still working out some of the technical and delivery details to make this happen.

Hey there, I'm sorry you're experiencing this issue. I just checked with the team and apparently we're hoping to resolve this issue next week with a new client build.

This is something I'm working on. Would love to pick your brain on what kinds of questions you might have ahead of the blog so that I can sort that before it goes live. Hoping to get it live this month.

Hey Opal! I don't have an exact date for this one, but the team has said they're aiming for everything in Poll 77 to be out before Christmas. I appreciate this doesn't help a lot. We've got the player survey guiding our decisions on which changes roll out first, so hopefully you filled that in? Pretty sure Essence Pouch repairs ranked highly on that survey.

Ah, I misunderstood. I see what you mean now. I can't get you those details yet unfortunately. Best of luck with the grind and it's so nice to see you still playing GIM!

I appreciate that and I'm really sorry for the uncertainty. It sucks when Studios sometimes aren't ready to share all the awesome stuff we're working on. I can't give you much news right now, but our Winter Summit is officially on the 10th December. We've got some exciting plans to share with you... So, if you can hold out for a little longer I think it'll be worth.

Working on it as quickly as we can, unfortunately I can't give you a date yet but everything on Poll 77 we're aiming to release before Xmas.

Hey there. Just asked the team, apparently this was discussed Monday whilst I was off. Coin pouches are still an effective tool for Player Support and Anti-Cheating to stop botting, however the team would be very open to investigating what more we can do to make it better for legitimate players. This could be through requirements locked behind diaries. Would this be something you think could be a decent compromise?

I'm delighted to confirm this will be next week! I'll try to include it in our livestreams as our "sneak peek of the week" segment! :D Is there anything in particular you need to know about it ahead of release?

I assume you're talking about the maintenance we're doing on specific worlds like UK worlds and German ones? We're looking to do another round of server upgrades just before Christmas, then another round after Christmas. US Worlds will be included of course but I can't give a date on when US West/East will be worked on as this hasn't been confirmed. Hope this helps :)

Apologies! The person who wrote this newspost wrote that line earlier in the week when that was still the plan. Since then, the plan has changed. Ayiza is working on an updated blog now to share with you and will be on our livestream this week discussing your feedback and our changes.

It has been removed now and the poll has been delayed until we get more information and an updated blog to you :) <3

Hey! I totally know what you mean as this has come up a lot in player suggestions. I asked the devs on a call about this to explain more.

Mod Ash has kindly helped me with an explanation as there was a lot of technical stuff I wasn't familiar with.

A fairy ring is composed of many separate bits of scenery. We can't make them all act as click-zones, or you'd have loads of conflicting ones in each other's way. And we can't make the whole thing act as a single big piece of scenery as it'd interfere with other scenery and the blocking, potentially making things worse.

We've got another solution in mind for how to improve their usability, though... A dev has kindly worked on a project during this game jam which explored some potential visible changes to the fairy ring which should make it easier to use on mobile. :) I'd love to hear your thoughts on this to see if it resolves the issue especially on mobile. At the moment we think this type of change could go in u...

Thanks Bo5, I'll get that amended out. This newspost was written by someone else and at the time of writing this was correct. I didn't know that was in there, so I'll change it now. Thank you :)

We'll take that on board as feedback, sorry that the layout wasn't ideal.
I've just asked the devs about this question regarding Quest XP buffs - I haven't got an exact time but I can confirm that these XP buffs should work retroactively, so hopefully no need to put off Questing with your GIM team :)

Hey, for now, I can see there's no set time this will all be delivered, but I can see that development has started on some of the smaller CA jobs. I don't believe the points-based system will be anytime soon but some of the other stuff listed in the CA blog seems likely to be before Xmas. Things can change, though so please don't take this as confirmation of a date.
