[fossil fog]

I was born February 3rd

[fiery gale]

I was thinking about this last night and if I ever do have a child I'm going to intentionally get them to be born on leap year if possible

[celest maple]

I was born on a Saturday on October 21st

[carmine relic]

You are evil.

[minor garden]

Why are we talking about birthdays?

[agile cape]

I know a girl who’s sister, herself and her mother are all born on Feb 29th

[warm plover]

apparently people born on 29 feb usually just celebrate on 28 feb or 1 march

[lone cove]

Will we have birthdays in Palia? 👀

[jagged bluff]

I am the luckiest unlucky person youll ever meet. I always get into crap situations/ have bad stuff happen to me but i always get the best possible outcome of those trash situations

[celest maple]

There was a boy who I used to be besties with who literally only befriended me because he misheard me and thought I said October 31st and thought that was cool 😅

[ocean stone]

Do people track individual birthdays in Palia or are we all born on cake day

[somber crag]

Oh, it was a Friday. Friday, November 11th. I do hope there are birthdays in Palia.

[wispy meadow]

You have found the family of the Mary Sues

[tulip wagon]

I have no idea how we got here. I'm.waiting for the next bus back to Palia. 😂

[iron pagoda]

The day I was born the world shed a tear. They knew the apocalypse had began.

[lyric flower]

Would be awesome if there were birthdays in Palia

[fiery gale]

That's not correct. They should only celebrate once every 4 years, but 4 times as big

[woeful sedge]

October 29th

[warm plover]

theyre definitely the protagonists

[raw quarry]

Imagine giving birth on your birthday, mental.

[cedar sapphire]

my official Bday is Thurs the 12th. My mom told me that she told the doctor if I was born on Fri the 13th she wouldnt take me home. 😦

[tropic sand]

Wednesday Dec 26th for me. Birthdays in Palia would be splendid

[lone cove]

I mean, even if they don’t have technical birthdays, there is a certain amount of role playing. Haha.

[lyric flower]

@woeful sedge That’s my daughters birthday as well

[agile cape]

December 29TH for me!!

[celest maple]

My mom told me that even tho I was the smallest of my siblings, I was the most difficult to birth. I think that was her warning that I was gonna grow up to be difficult 😂

[woeful sedge]

Aw, cool!

[wispy meadow]

I was born on Feb 11

[warm plover]

....the parents who had kids on February 29th definitely knew what they were doing when they conceived the kid right

[azure fossil]

It reminds me of a time where me and a childhood friend first met in elementary school because the teacher thought it was a fun idea to pair us up together to an activity just because we shared the same birthday!

[wispy meadow]

You found your twin, congrats!

[iron pagoda]

My niece shares the same birthday as her father, apparently it's a 1 in 365 chance of happening ❗

[modern blaze]

I have an actual twin 😄

[fiery gale]

Little known fact: they made the calendar emoji after my birthday 📆

[long sundial]

Do they have pink hair or like looking out of windows?

[celest maple]

Ugh I have never met someone with my birthday. I only share a birthday with Kim Kardashian and a character from Love Live 😂

[tropic sand]

Yours sucks a little less than mine lol

[carmine relic]

Lotta people gonna be born on launch day

[celest maple]

Great thanks to S6 many of us have cleared out our spam folders =)

[jagged bluff]

Whens your bday?

[agile cape]

No but she definitely has Mary Sue characteristics, she’s good at everything

[warm plover]

My brothers are like six and seven years older than me respectively

so hard to relate to them

[wispy meadow]

Definitely Mary Sue family XD

[celest maple]

Oct 21st, 2000!

[warm plover]

i actually dont remember if the middle brother is five or six years older than me actually...

[agile cape]

Most of my extended family are old as boogers. My cousins have kids older than me

[jagged bluff]

Im October 14 2000, very close!

[carmine relic]

Youngest of 3, Rin?

[warm plover]

Yuppers

[cedar sapphire]

March 12th for me, and the rest of my family is all in October

[woeful sedge]

Oh, same here!!!

[raw quarry]

Same, all my siblings are significantly older than me. I miss my sis, not seen her in about 20 years.

[strong cosmos]

Wow you get a whole time of the year to yourself!

[carmine relic]

I got a slightly bigger title of "Youngest of 4"

[fiery gale]

Any triplets in here or am I the only one

[patent dust]

i share a birthday with obama

[warm plover]

D:

[long sundial]

Oh no, I'm feeling old. I'm still in my 20s, darnit!

[celest maple]

Omg you're 7 days older than me 😮

[agile cape]

I feel young HAHA

[warm plover]

I'm 19 so I'm the baby of the chat

[lyric flower]

Lol don’t feel old... I was born April 27th 1988. I am old

[wispy meadow]

I thought we had grandparents here?

[iron pagoda]

quietly leaves #💬│palia-discussions when I realise I'm a little older than the average age

[patent dust]

someone born in 2000
me: 👵

[warm plover]

Dilbert is the local grandpa

[agile cape]

There’s a few that beat you out

[ocean stone]

Do you guys all have names or is this a Gambit 1, Gambit 2, etc situation xD

[azure fossil]

Mood

[celest maple]

nOoOoO cOmE bAcK

[pliant raven]

Carzy thinkin people born in 2000 are literally able to drink smh

[manic osprey]

Don't you go anywhere!

[spark fractal]

Hey

[opal depot]

I"ve got you beat by almost a year, 87 april baby here

[honest agate]

1987 here, practically an ancient

[woeful sedge]

I’m 18. Get one upped

[warm plover]

wow

[tropic sand]

I was born 1990. We’re not old yet

[carmine relic]

They aren't online, so I'm the only Gambit known to man! Or uh, this server I guess. Also yea, we got different actual names

[iron pagoda]

I'm 1989 I feel old haha

[long sundial]

Thanks, I feel better. I'm okay being the "middle child"

[agile cape]

2002 😌

[raw quarry]

Iirc in UK law you can drink privately indoors at like, 5 years old

[wispy meadow]

I have the unenviable title of "Eternal Babysitter for generation my own and beyond"

[azure fossil]

Oh. I'm 27...I guess I don't feel quite as old?

[serene stratus]

There were people online yesterday who were worried about not being 18 and thus not being able to sign the NDA

[warm plover]

I'm your babiest brother 30 under 30 media luminary griffin mcelroy rin

[fiery gale]

Haha that's funny. They're not. I don't care if they can legally drink. They are still baby they not allowed to drink I don't make the rules sorry

[iron pagoda]

32 years and I'm still waiting for a good game, Please let me enjoy Palia before dementia

[daring dawn]

'88 😆

[sharp gorge]

When you are proud to be born the same year like Gangsta paradise of Coolio in 1993....and 99% of other people is younger than you 😭

[jagged bluff]

React with 1 if youre an only child, 2 if youre a middle child, 3 if youre the youngest, 4 if youre the oldest

[lyric flower]

@iron pagoda yup I’m 33... we’re just seasoned gamers

[green plume]

'78! 😫

[cedar sapphire]

haha, '81 here. Just turned the big 40 this year

[agile cape]

Grandma out here

[long sundial]

I'm only a year older, but people born in the 2000s being adults make me feel old.

[green plume]

Yup!

[raw quarry]

YEARS OLD?!?! I jest.

[celest maple]

Bro I turn 21 this year and that's so crazy, to me

[jagged bluff]

all of them

[sharp gorge]

Maybe in the future will be games dedicated to senior like us

[iron pagoda]

we need to start our own neighborhood with a crochet club!

[warm plover]

I'm glad the average age here is older than like, 20 tbh
There's a lot of people here you don't see in typical Gamer™️ demographics and that makes me happy

[carmine relic]

Man. I'm gonna turn 22 soon... now I feel old!

[celest maple]

I shouldn't be allowed in clubs 😂 I'm so excited omg

[barren geyser]

28 lol

[lyric flower]

@iron pagoda hahaha yes please

[opal depot]

I'm crocheting it up as we speak!

[pliant raven]

I've said it before, Old gamers have wanted this style of game for decades and not one company had the balls to actually develop it. (I'm not old, only 26 but still)

[agile cape]

I have old person vibes though

[manic osprey]

omg 22 is nothing.. LIVE while youre young

[woeful sedge]

Definitely

[carmine relic]

I AM AND EVERYTHING SUCKS MOSTLY

[void imp]

look forward to game nonstop in the retirement home

[sharp gorge]

Absolutely TRUE

[strong cosmos]

I honestly thought the demographic was a lot younger based on the chat sometimes, but I was wrong! 😂

[long sundial]

Then again, I'm only 7 years older than the 2000s kids... it's just weird haven been able to watch someone from infancy to adulthood.

[brittle bone]

I am definitely old and I've been waiting my whole life for this.

[manic osprey]

im sorry ;___;

[steep bough]

dont feel old i am am 37

[iron pagoda]

All would be welcome so long as you drink tea and chase whipper shnappers of my pa tunas

[wispy meadow]

We are all children at heart for video games

[warm plover]

Nope, we even have lots of parents here!

[celest maple]

I've always been one of the oldest of my friends, but was always treated like the youngest 😅

[honest agate]

retirement homes will soon just be gaming cafes filled with retired gamers

[agile cape]

Gotta kettle on the stove rn

[serene stratus]

I would be happy to do a 'village'? 'Town'? Whatever they will be called in Palia, of us 'seasoned gamers' ❤️

[strong cosmos]

Very true 🥰

[brittle bone]

Sign me up!

[tropic sand]

I hope so

[azure fossil]

That was how I felt when interacting with a cousin of mine the other day...I felt my hair turning gray.

[iron pagoda]

I drink only the finest earl gray!

[somber cliff]

i cant wait for the s6 team to show us the gameplay

[serene stratus]

Picard approves

[agile cape]

I’m more of a peppermint kinda gal, but we can bring our own tea bags

[raw quarry]

Utterly based Earl Grey drinker

[jagged bluff]

Here, if youre comfortable
React 1 if youre 10->19
React 2 if youre 20->29
React 3 if youre 30->39
etc 🙂

[sharp gorge]

Idk how many people talk here, but since i'm here, I'm happy to see how the community is nice

[lyric flower]

@wispy meadow so true. My husband and I joke we don’t adult like most of our friends 🤣

[warm plover]

I KNEW IT
US YOUNG PEOPLE ARE THE MOST SCARCE

[ocean stone]

Either theres a lot of us who are the babies of our families,or people didn't read the order listed here xD

[pliant raven]

The community is nice until the Potatoes are ready for their crusade.

[raw quarry]

Yeah this place is special. Bunch of comfortable old folk just being chill tbh.

[carmine relic]

Young folks are only rare 'cause they're stuck in school most of the time, so we don't see them often.

[lyric flower]

I am the baby of my family but my brother is 5 years older then me. My husband is 41.

[pure jolt]

The number order is stressing me out :

[warm plover]

I guess it makes sense. I guess most young people wouldn't be that interested in a life sim, but I grew up on Rune Factory!!!

[iron pagoda]

I feel less alone now XD

[steep bough]

yeah

[cobalt adder]

I'm so old I remember the original console wars between Atari 2600, Intelevision, an Colecovision

[serene stratus]

OFFICIAL art!

[solemn wharf]

art pog

[long sundial]

I wanted to write a 'children's' book for adults who can't adult, but I learned that there was reasons for me being unable to adult, so it kind of faded away.

[agile cape]

Me when the semester starts

[deft sonnet]

WHAT I WANT ASHURAA

[warm plover]

New #🌠│official-art

[celest maple]

Y'all I thought I lost my graduation thingy for a moment

[ashen carbon]

I think there was a bug with the invites. I didn't get one. 😉

[stuck solar]

POGGERS

[midnight mantle]

It is pretty awesome that so many people are older. I’m 27 and it feels nice haha

[woeful sedge]

Nele being sassy omg

[safe fern]

That ping terrified me

[wispy meadow]

Okay um....
How does someone crop a gif?

[celest maple]

DIPLOMA, that's what that thing is called

[pliant raven]

Let my man win. 😦

[deft sonnet]

how could you do this to me Nel

[warm plover]

Oh we now have confirmation that it's an inn!! Yay

[zinc scarab]

l o l he’s been denied for a question mark

[steep bough]

can we pin this???

[void imp]

the new gameplay gif makes me want an emote to just lay down on the floor there after a long day

[exotic schooner]

Any young people have pre-alpha?

[pure jolt]

❓❓

[serene stratus]

The Inn looks very cozy #🌠│official-art I wonder if you can actually stay in it?

[agile cape]

Me!

[jagged bluff]

@distant oar

[midnight mantle]

WAIT THE QUESTION MARK MADE US MISS OUT ON ASHURA

[short thorn]

I'd love a rare emote that lets you just lie down face down on the floor like a slob

[quick dove]

Feels bad for Ashura

[worn herald]

I am new here! This game looks so good to be true ... pls someone slap me ?

[warm plover]

I knew question mark was gonna make us suffer

[halcyon palm]

Rip

[fast vortex]

Its not our fault it was put there though

[patent dust]

from what i can tell ive seen age ranged from 17-50+, but i dont ask for that info :P

[barren geyser]

I want to know the new characters lol

[wispy meadow]

❓ betrayed us

[short thorn]

Welcome!

[exotic schooner]

Lucky!

[warm plover]

17 year olds can sign legal documents?

[worn herald]

thank you

[deft sonnet]

but yeah im gonna chill in that tavern all day everyday

[exotic schooner]

I'm 17 personally

[midnight mantle]

No new characters, we didn’t get Ashura

[iron pagoda]

I was raised never to ask a Lady her age!

[serene stratus]

❓ ❗

[tranquil cosmos]

You guys played yourselves, RIP Ashura

[agile cape]

No

[neat shadow]

Wow, that new gif in #🌠│official-art is so gorgeous! and cozy...

[void imp]

thank you nelli it's beautiful

[covert cairn]

you were raised well xD

[deft sonnet]

im so dissapointed

[warm plover]

[neat shadow]

I wonder if we'll have different furniture variants.

[tardy needle]

The cropped Ashura gif is flashing/spazzing for me when not clicked 😄

[patent dust]

they can with parental consent

[exotic schooner]

They can, I've signed one with Twitch

[hidden lynx]

Vote ❓ guys!!!! More chaos!!!

[serene stratus]

Only under rare circumstances

[midnight mantle]

@void imp you get an email yet?

[long sundial]

I legitimately thought that ❓ would be a surprize... well, I guess it was.

[iron bane]

If really is! I’m so excited!

[agile cape]

They have to co-sign with parents

[worn herald]

i may not get an e mail but i will wait for your feedback guys

[carmine relic]

[upper monolith]

you guys left ashura in jail 😭

[sharp gorge]

This Gif is the place where all of the village will meet other to talk about day's adventure

[void imp]

not yet 😎 💅 how about you?

[short thorn]

I'd love different furniture events for stuff like cottage core, marine-esque, or some weird callbacks from different furniture from different cultures and games and etc

[small hinge]

Are those keys left hanging on the wall to the right….

[lyric flower]

@tranquil cosmos love your No face photo!

[patent dust]

you know what i meant

[spark fractal]

Me !

[pliant raven]

People say this community isn't toxic while they actively vote against seeing my man. Now he's cropped from art 😦 You should be ashamed of yourselves. The potatoes will remember this day.

[warm plover]

The flower emote is so helpful
I can use it to just say "I've seen your message" or "I'm sorry" or anything and it works

[neat shadow]

Seeing little things like that is so nice!

[exotic schooner]

Lucky you!

[midnight mantle]

Also not yet

[worthy fjord]

imagine ❓ being a random character or animal XD

[agile cape]

Yeah 👀👀

[sharp gorge]

Gib Tau

[iron bane]

Absolutely! I look forward to just chilling in a voice chat with friends while taking in the ambiance.

[warm plover]

kitsuu reveal kitsuu reveal

[hidden lynx]

I hope ❓ is pie lady 🥺 please 🥺

[tranquil cosmos]

Thank yooouuu, just spreading some love around

[zinc scarab]

Was the ❓ option really the fireplace reveal

[iron pagoda]

I wear my grandmothers wedding band to remind me to be respectful because she was the most special person I ever had the privilege of meeting.

[warm plover]

Britt you can just go visit pie lady ingame

[exotic schooner]

Otters are the best animals, hands down

[agile cape]

Nah, I think they’re just being sassy

[serene stratus]

That's sweet

[deft sonnet]

we just got a tease of the tavern that was ?

[regal swallow]

Keep it the villager vote even

[celest maple]

That made me so soft🥺

[wispy meadow]

Oh you sweet summer child

[tranquil cosmos]

It's true

[long sundial]

I read ambiance wrong and was freaking out. XD

[iron pagoda]

it;s actually on the chain in my PP

[jagged bluff]

idk who has permissions to pin

[warm plover]

btw Otter did you see the character card i made for myself

[agile cape]

I read that WRONG

[tranquil cosmos]

Yep! It was cute <3

[small hinge]

I’m still reading it wrong

[void imp]

[warm plover]

[pliant raven]

Yeah that came out sus

[serene stratus]

[cobalt adder]

New Palia profession: Chimney Sweep. "Step in Time!"

[midnight mantle]

[lyric flower]

Listening to kdrama music and Palia chat. It’s a good day. This community is seriously fantastic.

[fair viper]

I loved this reveal ngl xD

[wispy meadow]

Palia version of a kitty carrier, but for Chapaa or chickens

[iron pagoda]

[signal fog]

Just beat the game, was pretty good

[warm plover]

[void imp]

[patent dust]

[carmine relic]

[pliant raven]

This is your priest here, demanding you go to villager-vote and fix this issue.

[warm plover]

[agile cape]

Pryce: PP Everyone: 🤨

[swift trout]

[serene stratus]

[tepid ingot]

Good afternoon. Hope everyone is having a good day.

[warm plover]

[woeful sedge]

Sleeeeep

[quick dove]

[foggy ingot]

[empty matrix]

[void imp]

nel might just be joking

[midnight mantle]

[quick dove]

[warm plover]

[iron pagoda]

I'm old, in my day pfp was PP ya'll just got gutter brains

[upper monolith]

[pliant raven]

Back in my day pfp was avatar.

[midnight mantle]

In my day we called it profile picture or avatar and didn’t abbreviate.

[wispy meadow]

ITS TIED
THE VILLAGER VOTE

[halcyon palm]

It's usually tied

[sand barn]

ASHURA WE LOVE YOU

[swift trout]

[fair viper]

I swear I didn't vote ❓ 👀

[lime kiln]

Yes

[deft sonnet]

WE DO

[tropic sand]

It must stay tied

[outer anvil]

#Unlucky

[hidden lynx]

I want a cool character card 🥺

[azure fossil]

Balance must be kept to keep peace.

[foggy ingot]

air bender or..

[celest maple]

Nah I dont believe in peace OR balance, only chaos 😤

[merry kraken]

Lmao the way the voting changed after they said it's tied 💀

[slow idol]

I do love the Tavern gif. It looks so cozy

[deft sonnet]

you cant say that to Ashura's facee

[pliant raven]

no, pfp was called avatar

[gloomy vine]

We did it

[rustic mountain]

The tavern looks so niceee

[worthy fjord]

i want a reveal of the ginger girl with the braid, she looks fun

[midnight mantle]

KEEP GOIN FOR ASHURA

[fair viper]

Right? I am sure otherwise we wouldn't have gotten that tavern xD

[foggy ingot]

that joke really did pass you like that huh

[verbal herald]

I wanna sit by that fire and relax right now

[hidden lynx]

Honestly I just want ❓ to win... We gotta see what happens

[deft sonnet]

yeah with the goggles she looks cool

[tropic sand]

Yiss. It looks comfy

[regal swallow]

Keep the S6 proud of our community by keeping it even

[upper monolith]

Wasn't it the fireplace

[wispy meadow]

Okayyyy
Before the chat gets political again

How many chapaas does it take to bake a pie?

[pliant raven]

I got the joke, just wasn't sure if it was

[verbal herald]

roast some marshmellows and wenies on that fire

[foggy ingot]

can confirm it was

[ocean stone]

Name checks on. On brand 10/10

[raw quarry]

Yeah she's super cute, I love her

[iron pagoda]

depends whats your caloric intake for the day?

[sand barn]

that's right shrew!

[fair viper]

But perhaps they are going to do another villager vote?

[hidden lynx]

None???? Why would you want to eat chappas they are so heckin cute 🥺 whyyyy

[gusty mica]

Someone said pie!!! 🤤

[patent dust]

[pliant raven]

I think you need to kill like 3 to get enough meat for the pie. Idk

[gaunt wyvern]

Lol some shade being thrown in the artwork channel 🤣

[pearl ore]

mix up the votes, you say?

[warm plover]

i thought the question was about how many chapaas it took to actually bake the pie. like, the chapaas are the chefs

[wispy meadow]

I meant like training them to be like Remi from Ratatouille, you know, Chef Chappaas. But how many would it take for them to bake a pie?

[fair viper]

I mean, now 1️⃣ is winning xD

[warm plover]

i was right all along

[regal swallow]

if its even we are together closer than any other community

[echo jasper]

Vote ❓ all the way. It's the best choice

[woeful sedge]

hehe, cute

[slim shard]

Oh no, the Balance on the Villager Vote is falling apart. Stop it! We need to keep the Balance. 😱

[vernal knot]

i think itd take at least 3 chapaas to bake a pie

[jagged bluff]

i want to meet him ;-;

[hidden lynx]

Oh that's 10000 percent acceptable... I'd say ummm 6? Maybe?

[gusty spire]

At one point ❓ was winning I think 😆

[carmine relic]

3 Chappas in a trenchcoat trying to act like a person

[worthy fjord]

I preffer ❓ or a draw

[wispy meadow]

Perfect! Now to fine tune my plan to organize a Chappaa Master Chef

[echo jasper]

I've never been as committed to something, as I am currently committed to representing ❓

[hidden lynx]

I also want ❓ to win.

[merry crater]

I love that this discord exists and has already offered up such great memories to look back on such as the current villager vote. you all make me happy.

[fair viper]

I think before they announced the inn, ❓ was winning by a lot

[pliant raven]

You question marks are making me question humanity 😠

[deft sonnet]

lesgooo ashuraaaa!!

[echo jasper]

I love the mystery. It's like, ooh a secret... I need it.

[raw quarry]

Some maniac is hellbent on making it uneven

[azure fossil]

It's time to tip the balance, ❓ gang all the way.

[serene stratus]

❓

[strong cosmos]

I wanted ❓ to win, but now I’m curious to see what happens if it’s tied 😂

[wispy meadow]

Children no fighting over unknowns

[late cargo]

gib me alpha key

[thin venture]

❓

[dull shard]

❓

[ocean stone]

WHO IS HE

[foggy ingot]

humanity do be a question mark

[azure fossil]

❓

[gusty mica]

Would be funny People keep them equal lol🤪

[zinc scarab]

❓

[celest maple]

❓

[slow idol]

ooh oops! I called that the tavern! I think it looks wonderful either way though

[jagged bluff]

Where has duck been? Havent seen him in a hot minute

[pliant raven]

😠

[tropic sand]

Exactly. This is why we must keep it tied

[deft sonnet]

frick

[pliant raven]

#FreeMyMan

[gusty mica]

Tie or ?

[abstract geode]

I am now a proponent of 1️⃣ and ❓ balance

[spring merlin]

[slim shard]

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-perfectlybalanced-gif-18301221

[sharp gorge]

❓

[iron pagoda]

I've sat here all day waiting for this powder keg to reignite 💥

[hidden lynx]

I just wanna know what ❓ gives us... Is it someone new? Is it a new animal? Is it a new place? Like... It could be so many things and I NEED to know

[shut marten]

wow that new gif in art is just meaaaaan I want the whole thing (and more)

[swift trout]

❓

[wispy meadow]

I feel like you are the type to rush to open presents from burning curiosity

[azure fossil]

There's a certain aura of mystery that ❓ gives and I must see it through.

And I must know

[hidden lynx]

If I don't know what the present is yes. That is me.

[glass fossil]

❓

[gusty spire]

Like a mystery character? That would be funny

[echo jasper]

Same..

[hidden lynx]

That's what I'm saying! Down with Ashura and on to mystery!!!

[wispy meadow]

Detective Chapaa (think detective Pikachu but with a chapaa)

[long sundial]

Agreed

[pliant raven]

Sush a cruel world Palia is turning out to be

[fair viper]

Tbh, I am rooting for a tie between ❓ and 1️⃣. Maybe we will get the character and another gif xD

[last tendon]

Poor ashura haha

[ocean stone]

What if...the ? gave us a POV of Ashura from behind. Cuz some people keep turning their back on him 😭😭😭

[shut marten]

So you guys think we are close to 1200 invites yet?

[sand barn]

Down with Ashura? I beg to differ!

[jaunty prairie]

you guys know how one of the question on the questionnaire was what would you change about your favorite game, I kinda want to see all those answers

[agile cape]

Probably pretty close

[remote latch]

my theory is ... either ❓ is Ashula .. a trick to make us pick one or the other ... or .. it is the Mayor or Duchess or the armourer or a member of the Oniata family .. we have heard from all of them but no info on them 🙂

[worthy solar]

You guys are gonna invoke Ashura's Wrath, and I'm all for it.

[echo jasper]

Down with order, give me ❓

[manic osprey]

That was my favourite to answer

[surreal crest]

probably? I just wait for the official info so I can give up haha

[wispy meadow]

Probably halfway done, maybe more maybe less
No way to know until Nel says

[hidden lynx]

I loved that question 🥺 I wrote so much 😅

[lime kiln]

Rememebr guys 1️⃣ is definitly ashura, but ❓ could be anything, even Ashura

[slow idol]

Id love to see that happen, but im sure we must vote on either or. Although I would love to see Ashura, I am way too curious for my own good

[agile cape]

I can’t imagine that it takes that long to copy paste stuff

[fair viper]

Same here! xD

[barren geyser]

I wonder what Nel will do if it stays tied

[agile cape]

Especially if they had a bot run all night with it

[shut marten]

hahahaha that would be so funny

[hidden lynx]

Yeah ❓ could still be Ashura and Nel is just trolling us. ONLY ONE WAY TO FIND OUT

[jagged bluff]

I feel so bad for Ashura

[wispy meadow]

Like I said, no way to know until Nel or another dev says

[inland coral]

me: watching if i got into pre-alpha
social media and websites i'm registered to: "Did you know we have 50% off if you buy it today?!"

[modern blaze]

If I remember correctly, someone has the audacity to add the ❓ and it was not a default option

[echo jasper]

Ok back to work... keep up the fight, team ❓

[wispy meadow]

What if ? is Genderbend Ashura?

[quaint kernel]

If they want to release a character, release them. Why blame the community lol seems passive aggressive

[iron pagoda]

I think ❓ will reveal the Chuu king

[sand barn]

❓ Could also be a test, and Ashura will never be revealed :(

[hidden lynx]

The only person who can is Nel...

[grizzled granite]

HOW IS IT STILL TIED

[halcyon palm]

It has to be tied

[fair viper]

The ❓ was put by someone of the dev team?

[lime kiln]

If there's ever Ashura in a trailer, he should initially be shown as a silhouette

[shut marten]

nah it's just all good fun

[hidden lynx]

Hey OLDD Punk Noodle Whirly 🥰

[ocean stone]

❓ is sad Ashura or Ashura giving us the cold shoulder 🥶

[surreal crest]

MYSTICAL MAGIC

[modern blaze]

...hmm

[idle peak]

[iron pagoda]

Because Palia community

[quaint kernel]

Hmm doesn't seem like it from the outside, but I guess

[grizzled granite]

🍜

[barren geyser]

I want noodles

[upper monolith]

Nel kinda beaned herself by adding that questionmark 😂

[west stream]

I'm noodle

[barren geyser]

Hiiii @west stream

[wispy meadow]

Local Chair confesses to rigging election between tavern keeper and ❓

[west stream]

hi!

[surreal crest]

Shhh, not really~~

[quaint kernel]

I dont see a point of putting a vote with one option lol

[gusty spire]

No matter what happens, can't wait to learn about Ashura

[hidden lynx]

If there was only one option imagine no one voting at all

[eager idol]

Maybe if it's tied we get both 👀

[ocean stone]

Is for funsies, or is a top secret social experiment to figure out the way to quickly move the community to action vis a vis CHAOS

[quaint kernel]

If there was only one option, it shouldn't even be a vote

[surreal crest]

that's... That's smart. If they pull off something like this we gotta convince EVERYONE to NOT vote

[hidden lynx]

Or there being a vote with no option to vote so we HAVE to get Ashura 🤣 this way we have a chance to get something totally random

[safe basin]

Ironically Ashura was the one I'd hoped would be revealed sooner

But here we are lmao

[obtuse wind]

lo

[honest pulsar]

the emails take a day to send for alpha testing?

[fair viper]

Tbh, I think not wanting to see Ashura has become a meme xD

[idle peak]

yes

[small hinge]

Yep keep eye on game announcements for when all is sent

[merry crater]

That's the timeframe they gave.

[azure fossil]

Most likely throughout the day.

[worthy rose]

Ok so basically hes purple

[dark cloak]

Ashura bhahahaa

[safe basin]

Jokes on you, purple's my favorite color

[wispy meadow]

Brain refuses to stay awake any longer so....
Goodnight folks 👋
Have fun with the voting

[obtuse wind]

I got mine at 11pm last night.

[fair viper]

Ahh lucky

[idle peak]

lucky you 🙂

[honest pulsar]

I didnt get anything L

[worthy rose]

MORE RYANS????

[void imp]

good night ana !! <3

[idle peak]

8pm here, waiting 😉

[small hinge]

It’s not about the reveal guys it’s about sending a message, and that message is

[agile cape]

Some people received them right at 5:00, and some are still getting them

[scenic arrow]

I think they will make another announcement post when all the invites have been sent, so we can stop refreshing our inboxes 🤣

[surreal crest]

HAI NOMI!

[void imp]

HAI

[austere umbra]

same haha

[honest pulsar]

how many more waves?

[jagged bluff]

Has anyone gotten a recent invite?

[safe basin]

Ryan confirms the devs are looking for insomniacs so they can get that sweet 24/7 playtesting

[merry crater]

Still a chance you might since the 24 hr mark is a few hours out, and last wave took a little longer than expected.

[worthy rose]

none for the pre alpha

[small hinge]

I can give you all my 3 day weekend hours let’s gooo

[iron pagoda]

I am an insomniac, I have a certificate!

waves frantically at S6 devs

[pliant raven]

Any idea when alpha may begin?

[lone cove]

I'm play whenever they say

[remote latch]

we don't know for sure .. they said 1400 for PreAlpha total .. first was 200 this was 1200 .. so either this is it for Pre Alpha or they raise the total number .. but either way there will likely be other testing possibilities before it is ready to be released.

[lyric flower]

Same. Been an insomniac ever since I started MMO’s in 1999

[iron pagoda]

Want a fun fact about me?

[surreal crest]

I wish I can get the email
waiting is killng me XD

[lyric flower]

@iron pagoda yes please 🤣

[flat pecan]

same

[still axle]

I was thinking about that - they said they were limiting it to 1400. But I find it weird that they called it, in this most recent announcement, the "second" wave instead of the "final" wave, and never confirmed this is the remaining lot of invites.... 🤔

Maybe I'm overthinking though ..

[worthy rose]

why dont you just... take a seat @surreal crest

[remote latch]

I just had my brother check to make sure our email servers spam filter didn't kick in .. thankfully they weren't blacklisted for 'spamming' like some of my email senders get that shouldn't rofl. So .. yep .. now its waiting for the finished post to get back to normal 🙂

[iron pagoda]

My insomnia was so bad <4 months ago I was getting <1 hour sleep a night, so at 3am I decided the only way to solve my issue was to throw my bed out and start sleeping on my floor.

[dull shard]

at the end of the day, everyone will get a chance. Whether it's in pre-alpha, alpha, or release 😄

[surreal crest]

🪑

[dull shard]

so try not to ovethink how many are in what section

[lunar tundra]

They said this wave was 1200, but the last wave was 200. So that's the full 1400 they said would be in. (If everyone accepts)

[verbal herald]

but we want it noooooowwwwwwwww

[agile cape]

They might have a final backfill but that’s it (my guess)

[worthy rose]

just think, even if you don't get in before release, you're going to start playing when the game is the most polished and the most finished

[grizzled granite]

:O

[somber crag]

A wild Whirly appears.

Quick, throw a pokeball.

[iron pagoda]

throws Palia ball

[dull shard]

also, and keep in mind this is all speculation without any information right now, but I'd assume with pre-alpha you wouldn't get much time to just have fun with the game, it would be more focused on testing features and not the whole gameplay experience

[pliant raven]

#FreeWhirly

[lofty verge]

test

[ember onyx]

s

[fair viper]

But that's also something I think most of us wanna do xD

[worthy rose]

whirly smells like clean socks

[celest maple]

I'm just hoping I can like, play and enjoy the game before I have to go back to school in October 😩 bc I won't have much freetime then

[woeful sedge]

Yep yep. Pre-alpha’s for the game, not for you. Getting an early look at the experience is just a bonus!

[grizzled granite]

[somber crag]

LOL.

[olive heath]

I've been waiting all morning for my role to update.

[somber crag]

Same. Patience is a virtue. c:

[long sundial]

If it was 9:36am at 11:36am (CST), then it's almost 11am for them right now. They made the announcement yesterday at 4:10pm my time, making it 2:10 their time. Assuming that there is one person sending them, and they didn't work overnight, let's say that it takes 5 minutes to prepare the email and make sure that all of the details are correct before hitting send. We know that they're not working 9-5 because I got mine at 10pm, 8pm their time. So, while we don't know what their hours are, let's assume that they work a normal 8 hours. Maybe they had just started work at 2pm, so the announcement at 2:10 was as everyone was getting settled in. So, then if they worked 8 hours, 2pm PT to 11pm PT, and took an hour lunch, and two paid 30 minute breaks, that means 6 hours of sending emails yesterday. At 5 minutes each, that's 12 an hour for a total of 42 invites. That's not a rate that can do 1,200 in 16 hours, so we need a better rate of time for the person sending emails to be working. OR, there are multiple people sending them.

[worthy rose]

I've been waiting for the role updates too

[shut hinge]

Or a bot is sending them on timed intervals to avoid spam filters.

[somber crag]

You have it, boo!

[agile cape]

They were sending through the night

[iron pagoda]

TL:DR
No likey
No invitey.

[void imp]

I want more friends!

[mossy dagger]

Me too!

[somber crag]

Oh, I see!

[fair viper]

tldr? xD

[deft sonnet]

i wanna be your friend

[fair viper]

Oh didn't see this, thank you xD

[azure fossil]

Yeah, I think they're sending them out in an amount of time since I got mine at 1:30am CST last night.

[worthy rose]

you're overthinking this, they use an automated email sender :P just like every company ever

[fair viper]

xD

[flat pecan]

[iron pagoda]

I got you.

[long sundial]

Insufficient information to determine how many invites have been sent. Also, I did get an invite, so that's not why. XD I just felt that it would be fun to work that out.

[iron oak]

🥱 Maybe it's time to lose all hope and go to sleep.

[ocean stone]

You seem to have a very active olfactory nerve.

[cold mesa]

[worthy rose]

I accept your proposal of friendship on the basis of you being a chapaa supporter

[deft sonnet]

GN sleep tight

[exotic schooner]

I feel you

[worthy rose]

gm mushy :D

[bright forge]

I still have hope so pls don't give up!

[long sundial]

If this is the case, though, then why are they not all sent?

[deft sonnet]

yay

[exotic schooner]

What is your secret Perin?

[iron pagoda]

I didn;t just google olfactory 👀

[worthy rose]

so that email providers dont mark as spam and auto delete

[iron oak]

Haha you can have the rest of mine too.

Sometimes you just gotta sniff things out if you're not sure what something means

[long sundial]

Thanks!

[wraith lynx]

Didnt they send out additional 1200? I'm assuming they are done sending invites for this wave.

[bronze mountain]

Probably

[gusty spire]

Thank you!

[patent dust]

whirly has the best emojis

[verbal herald]

I learned my lesson about randomly sniffing things a long time ago, darn roommate and their spoiled milk

[bright forge]

I'm just positive in general and want best for my friends that's all I think

[buoyant heath]

For all time.

[remote latch]

no, would take a day for all email invites to go out .. still have 3-4 hours to hit that 24 hour window .. maybe more if it takes a bit longer than a day

[patent dust]

except for..that one emoji.....

[exotic schooner]

That's a good mental attitude, I rate it

[worthy rose]

the pee one?

[patent dust]

shhh dont mention it

[worthy rose]

[patent dust]

hes gunna post it

[buoyant heath]

I gotta say, even coming from me, this joke was a little on the nose.

[somber crag]

I don't think I've seen the pee one. THIS IS NOT ME ASKING TO SEE IT, I'm just saying...

[safe basin]

Im sorry the pee what????

[uneven pebble]

Ulg... I do NOT feel well...

~~I'm sure that discord role updates will, "Be sometime today." ~~

noo ashura is winning by 2 votes

Everyone is talking about || pee || now. I didn't at you @iron pagoda to avoid calling you out, but now...😳

[neat shadow]

I was sitting here wondering how the pepe peepee emoji reaction come to be, then saw it was Whirly.

[slow idol]

yay for Ashura~ even though we would like to try for both

[hushed rampart]

If it's about Discord it's called an avatar which would solve that quite nicely.

[ocean stone]

Oh no the spiral is now complete

[iron pagoda]

Did I shoot myself in the foot? .. damn it. I was just trying to be sentimental about my heirloom

[small hinge]

Groundhog Day but it’s pp

[brisk pewter]

i hope the dev's let us know when the 1200 invites are out so i can stop refreshing my inbox 👍

[ocean stone]

It really was sweet 🥰🥰🥰

[dapper horizon]

hi everyone

[slow idol]

They will!

[ocean stone]

Astro has indeed divined it

[slow idol]

I love that so much

[warm star]

I've accepted the fact that I'm not going to get an email, that's just how my luck goes

[verbal herald]

same mah dude

[midnight mantle]

Mine too, but I’m so glad other people will get to experience it

[mint kelp]

Well not with that attitude

[manic osprey]

I thought that too but got one earlier in the morning! Keep your head up! You never know

[rain sedge]

I got an email this morning as well. Give it time!

[twin comet]

Ya gotta believe!

[midnight mantle]

Sounds like a lot went out in the morning!

[remote latch]

most of us won't get the email . so you won't be the only one missing out 🙂 . . 1.4k out of 90k+ ... yes .. 90% of the server will still be hovering hoping for another invite opportunity or gameplay videos to watch 🙂

[worthy rose]

🎷 🐛

[slow idol]

This is only Pre-alpha! Who knows what will happen down the road ❤️

[mint kelp]

I dunno I'm the type of guy who fails 90% enchants in pso2 ngs 3 times in a row and still got an email. So there's hope

[midnight mantle]

That is, if those 90k signed up

[neat shadow]

I can only hope for an open Beta in the future at this point

[ocean stone]

P is for Palia, Patience and || Princesses, not the other thing you were thinking ||

[worthy rose]

Pastry?

[tulip coral]

true, a load of people don't even have roles so the chances of them seeing the second invite form is probably slim

[ocean stone]

Mmm pastry 🤤

[midnight mantle]

PP

[gusty spire]

I'll just be happy to help, whenever I can

[remote latch]

true that but at least 11k responded to the #📢│palia-news so still a high difference

[abstract dawn]

How does one change their role btw? I want to change mine to the they/them colorway

[buoyant heath]

How provocative

[iron pagoda]

that's right I was first ya'll back off!

[hushed rampart]

To be fair, my internet is awful at work and I didn't see anyone answer.

[patent dust]

i think its the roles channel, im not sure though 🤔

[mint kelp]

And here I thought it stood for pu||nctuation because people really like the ❓ ||

[small hinge]

Well they did a discord ish favored wave and then a complete survey wave… kinda hope future waves blends the two sides

[dull shard]

the colour of the they/them role is a very nice shade of teal

[worthy rose]

Dont make me bonk you

[small hinge]

Teal is BiS color since Protoss in the 90’s

[thin venture]

i like teal and purple

2,5h left so If someone still have hope stay with me!

[lunar tundra]

Your Chapaa role overrides the color from the pronoun role. That's why I didn't choose a chapaa/Chuu role.

[midnight mantle]

Hahaha wait, for invites?

[spring merlin]

Happy for the override since she/they is.. white. o.o

[thin venture]

Chuu>Chapaa

[bright forge]

yep

[small hinge]

Till the beta end my guy ❤️

[lunar tundra]

It's kind of blue on my screen lol

[zinc scarab]

Incorrect

[midnight mantle]

That’s if it takes only 24 hours

[strong mica]

My wife got an alpha invite and I couldn't be more jealous lol

[spring merlin]

Oh! 😮

[patent dust]

a day =/= 24 hours exactly

[lunar tundra]

That's the one I use, it just looks white in the roles channel.

[orchid crescent]

guess imma just check my mail again tomorrow

[merry crater]

I'm waiting for my husband to wake up to check his. Am gonna feel bad if he doesn't get one.

[orchid crescent]

bought few games on sale but im already looking for something else

[spring merlin]

I assumed since they used the white dot it would be white, but you're right! xD I wonder if they realize the color they assigned the role isn't exactly white.

[midnight mantle]

a day could be 2+ days depending on what planet you’re on

[lunar tundra]

I hope it stays this color lol

[trail stirrup]

well white is unrolled so i would expect so

[small hinge]

My gf got a invite but she goes to a different school you wouldn’t know her

[spring merlin]

Oh true.

Introduce her in game

[orchid crescent]

Man whoever matched colors and stuff must be colorblind, no offense

the role color and the dot color are not connected, they just needed something for people to be able to react with

[void imp]

faeries?

[trail stirrup]

no

[worthy solar]

Yup... Myself! All the health is mine, and there's nothing you can do to stop me!

[small goblet]

i think the game has not even combat mechanics

[patent dust]

theres no hp :P nothing to heal

[trail stirrup]

its a messed around with latin of my irl name

[strange rapids]

Oh rip lol, thought there was super mild combat, shows how much i know =p

[remote latch]

no need for healing in Palia .. no health bar or death

[void imp]

ooh thats fun too

[bright forge]

What about soul and mental health?

[patent dust]

closest thing to combat is hunting, which..its not really combat at all haha

[trail stirrup]

or rather the meaning of my irl namr

[strange rapids]

hunting is basicly one sided combat

[trail stirrup]

i like to be creative with names

[small goblet]

i wonder, does the game really look like in the trailer or is it tuned up with 2002002020022 render shit

[void imp]

ooh no it's time to sing again to distract myself from the variety of invite feelings and it's spongebob songs again*

[mellow arrow]

if there is no hp bar then there is stamina bar?

[umbral ferry]

nope

[patent dust]

outside of a couple of obvious animations, the trailer was made in engine with a cinematic camera

[trail stirrup]

so no PVE either?

[exotic schooner]

MFW I get a new email and it's just student discounts for ice cream

[small goblet]

ok thanks you

[sterile dew]

😭

[thin venture]

hey ice cream is still good

[trail stirrup]

dont diss the ice cream!

[knotty solar]

Did anyone get there email yet?

[trail stirrup]

nope

[patent dust]

it says in the trailer 'in engine pre-alpha footage'

[exotic schooner]

I want Palia not ice cream

[small goblet]

nope

[sage orchid]

Nope 😩

[quick dove]

All 1200 are probably done sending

feels bad man

[umbral ferry]

Nel will communicate when they are

[woeful sedge]

And it’s still gorgeous!!

[patent dust]

some people got eamils, im not sure how many have been sent so far. there will be an announcement when all invites are sent.

[knotty solar]

Hmmm.... They said the invites would be going out through out the next 24 hours... there should be hundreds of people who got there email already...

[dull shard]

there is a lot who have!

[somber crag]

They'll announce when the invites are done being sent out, lovelies. ❤️

[cold mesa]

People have been mentioning if they got the email

[knotty solar]

Ahh okay.

[tired dagger]

no email

[mellow arrow]

they will announce

[patent dust]

they said 'a day'. that does not mean exactly 24 hours, its more of a general timeframe

[umbral ferry]

wonder how many of those 1200 will even login

[verbal herald]

Oh mighty RNGeesus, I beg of you for this email!

[small goblet]

they cant be done yet, i didnt recieve mine yet

[jagged bluff]

I want an update from a dev lol

[trail stirrup]

haha

[knotty solar]

How many peeps we have in this discord? anyone got a general number?

[verbal herald]

atleast 7

[woeful sedge]

92,115

[knotty solar]

o, o

[bright forge]

92 115

[tired dagger]

There seems to be a mistake, my email isn't there?

[quick dove]

RNGeesus be damned, he's always cursed me

[still axle]

I imagine many people wisely haven't come forward to say they got one either. You get hit with quite a few "share your key with me!!!" messages when you post you got the email... 😅

[jagged bluff]

how do you see this

[patent dust]

its not rng

[knotty solar]

so out of 92 thousand people they sent out 1200 emails, Which means each person has a more or less 1 in 10 chance of getting one

[trail stirrup]

keys have never worked like that

[worthy solar]

If XCOM taught me anything, it's that even a 95% chance is a failure. RNGesus be damned.

[woeful sedge]

Dots next to the server name on the left sidebar

[serene stratus]

No, not everyone who registered is on the discord. They said they had hundreds of thousands of apps

[glass fossil]

I love your name!

[knotty solar]

Ahh okay, Fair enough!

[worthy rose]

there were hundreds of thousands of applicants. The odds are lower. I really wouldn't feel too bad about not getting an email!

[dull shard]

hey all, I know the possibility of pre-alpha is exciting! But spending all day constantly checking email and asking repeatedly here if it's done isn't going to help any. It's best to make sure you practice self care and do the things you need to do today! Rather than getting stuck in the repeating cycle of this chat asking about it, which doesn't really go anywhere

[cold mesa]

Some people who have been invited in wave 2 weren't already in the discord. So it seems website signups are also involved

[umbral ferry]

Time to start a 0 viewer twitch stream to be selected as an influencer

[barren geyser]

We must remember to drink water

[knotty solar]

It's actually insanely rare that i do not get into a Pre-Alpha, Early alpha, Alpha, Closed Beta, or W/e, This may be one of those times i don't get an invite XD!!!

[worthy rose]

am drinking strawberry slush

[patent dust]

if only people read the entire announcement ;p

[knotty solar]

Yum

[quick dove]

Lmao Its my day off and everything was done yesterday, I got nothing better to do

[barren geyser]

Strawberry slush for the win!

[tight ruin]

it's because you like pickles

[somber crag]

There are a lot of people who got the invite, and are still waiting on being given their role, too! They're very clearly still in the process of squaring things away. ❤️

[worthy solar]

Haha, you're the first to ever say they liked it. Big ol' thanks though, from one nice name to another.

[knotty solar]

Your dang tootin i do

[rocky thistle]

They did specifically state this in the announcement

[bright forge]

If only people read anything in here...

[craggy turret]

You don't have to be in discord to get prealpha this round either

[cobalt adder]

I'm mostly sure we will all get in during the alpha or beta stages. At worse it may be the ore launch stress test. From my brief time in this discord, I'm assured those who got in will try their best to ensure the game is what we hope it will be

[cold mesa]

Not everyone reads and I didnt want to be rude lol

[cobalt adder]

I'm mostly sure we will all get in during the alpha or beta stages. At worse it may be the before launch stress test. From my brief time in this discord, I'm assured those who got in will try their best to ensure the game is what we hope it will be

[strange rapids]

i can't wait to get into palia to do the mythic cabbage farm raid

[worthy solar]

I'm more of a pictures kinda guy.

[somber crag]

We love not being rude. Thanks for answering questions, Mushy.

[knotty solar]

Hey your more than welcome to claim i did not read what i should have... and you would be correct, i don't have the time to do that with the dozens of discords, Apps, Emails, Projects, Ect i do on a daily basis so excuuuuuuse me 😛

[patent dust]

but youre always rude :v

[quick dove]

👀

[trail stirrup]

not everyone uses discord

[serene stratus]

Alpha testing would be a time commitment...

[cold mesa]

I dont mind helping in anyway I can. I just try to be thoughtful too.

[knotty solar]

Exactly, And if i get into said Alpha, I make time.

[cold mesa]

QQ

[worthy rose]

TRUE

[somber crag]

It's a good thing, too - to be thoughtful. ❤️

[buoyant heath]

Mushykins [meanie]

[cold mesa]

y u bully me 🥺

[patent dust]

best to not mention whats in the email specifically

[small hinge]

Whoa gunna be busy with 👨‍⚖️

[midnight mantle]

Being thoughtful is meaningful

[dusty cargo]

@cold mesa we love u thank you for being helpful 🥰

[trail stirrup]

i got the invite when i signed up

[cold mesa]

tank you love 🥺

[midnight mantle]

Huh?

[worthy fjord]

but don't get angry if you are not in the pre alpha

[trail stirrup]

for discord

[quick dove]

Stress testing fishing to the limit

[worthy rose]

you didn't reply when I said good morning and I feel betrayed

[quick dove]

gotta see how much i can break

[serene stratus]

I'm here for it! 🎣

[cold mesa]

i sorry bby. i miss things. never mean to ignore anyone 😭

[umbral ferry]

Is fishing even in yet? xD

[midnight mantle]

I’ll stress test cooking/baking

[remote latch]

yes

[steep ridge]

this is gonna be a stupid question, so apologies in advance.
was there a confimation email when we first signed up to join the alpha list?

[quick dove]

probably not xD

[rocky thistle]

dons fish fear me hat

[versed sail]

I already love you all! I DON' CARE I'M CRAYZEH

[buoyant heath]

Not a stupid question and no!

[strange rapids]

Question, will there be a economy/auction house that i can exploit to make millions

[steep ridge]

cause i just went through all my emails, and couldnt find which one i used to sign up with

[long sundial]

Drink water @ everyone

[floral cypress]

I think theres a mistake maybe S6 entered my email wrong I didn't get an email yet 😢

[raw quail]

I'll help

[umbral ferry]

No confirmation mail was such a weird choice

[strange rapids]

god i hope so

[midnight mantle]

Is this going to be like overcooked?

[small hinge]

It’s more likely the odds are against us rather then a oopsie

[remote latch]

that is a topic of great debate .. but we haven't had any say either way .. one of those things we will see when we will see

[trail stirrup]

that would be carnage!

[midnight mantle]

Two people madly running around stress testing cooling

[versed sail]

I'm going to make lovely jam for all of you and become the Jam Queen

[quick dove]

oh no, don't burn what I fish up

[long sundial]

I hope there's clothes making and stuff. Even though I barely notice fashion IRL, I love it in games.

[strange rapids]

Hopefully, one of my favorite things to do in wow is just to make money off the economy

[vernal knot]

yeah no confirmation email terrified me but as long as you keep using the email you originally signed up with it should be all good

[umbral ferry]

I'm not sure thats how "stress testing" works :p

[raw quail]

probably

[steep ridge]

I actually can't remember which email address i used and i dont know if i can put 2 entries into the survey

[midnight mantle]

I’m so excited then

[lyric flower]

@long sundial I would love this! I hope so!

[versed sail]

I spotted a dressform in the trailer. Hopefully it's not just decorative! We need our fashion for sure!

[serene stratus]

Well, I got an email from Slickdeals about Crocs, so that's almost as good eh 🥲

[midnight mantle]

Are they rainbow puke colored?

[raw quail]

we're just running around screaming because something is burning everywhere

[trail stirrup]

i would rather the ice cream honestly

[umbral ferry]

I hope fashion crafting will allow truly custom outfits, but it'll probably just be premade items

[serene stratus]

I did not dignify it with opening 😆

[midnight mantle]

Lots of screaming, I’m ready. I’ll be on fire

[strange rapids]

can't imagine this game wouldn't have tmog

[raw quail]

STOP DROP AND ROLL

[versed sail]

I hope there are lots of dye colours involved!

[barren geyser]

I did see animal husbandry is a possibility for long term goal in the faq 👀

[long sundial]

Our patience... oh, you're talking about cooking.

[midnight mantle]

😂😂

[umbral ferry]

Honestly, just allow people to choose RGB

[trail stirrup]

🧯

[midnight mantle]

Nah I’m just gonna spice up the kitchen with my fire

[quick dove]

If it does I may have to rush that first, gotta look the fisherman part

[cobalt adder]

I'm sure some percentage of the 92k on here signed up with multiple accounts. One of my pre teen kids already has 3 email addy's.

[raw quail]

lol you're right too

[long sundial]

Maybe you can mix and match parts, like these sleeves with those buttons with that hood, etc.

[midnight mantle]

I have multiple emails but I only used the only one I use daily, bummer if people used multiples

[serene stratus]

I have over a dozen emails, doesn't mean you sign up for multiple accounts lol

[quick dove]

someone probably did

[surreal crest]

you would need multiple discord accounts lol

[steep ridge]

depends how desparate for the alpha u are i guess

[versed sail]

If they don't allow me to be the Jam Queen, I will have to apply my efforts elsewhere. Pastries will not be enough for me. I may venture into dye making (if that's an option).

[lyric flower]

I have multiple emails but just signed up on the main one I use.

[remote latch]

its possible .. I have 5 email addresses .. but I only signed up on the one I use for this kind of stuff

[midnight mantle]

Hopefully they can weed them out

[placid shoal]

that would be a lot of paragraphs for the question though, and if none of them are good, no amount of emails would save them :')

[serene stratus]

I hadn't even thought about that possibility till you mentioned it

[clear prism]

Devs: please check your spam folder
Me: nothing from you. But I have a goddamn Genshin in there.

[void imp]

hi maya 👋

[midnight mantle]

No one wants to know what my spam folder looks like

[worthy rose]

why do you guys have so many emails

[long sundial]

I probably can't make cosplay, but we'll see. Redhead Bowsette costume may just happen.

[quick dove]

yeah I mean I have like 2 emails, one for stupid shit the other for work

[trail stirrup]

my spam folder has been empty all day, very sus

[umbral ferry]

I have one email with multiple aliases (that way I know who leaks my data when I get spam :P) so I don't necessarily know which one I used for Palia

[serene stratus]

Different purposes. Different names over the years

[midnight mantle]

Work email, one for store spam, one that’s encrypted with my own domain, and one for general every day things

[warm plover]

The cat returns

[clear prism]

also 18k unread messages

[umbral ferry]

Plus even if my alias mail leaks in some database leak, means it isn't my username

[trail stirrup]

eh so many of these things required u to sign up to their email, like google and live

[cobalt adder]

Back when I tested Star Wars Galaxies I did sign up for beta on two accounts, got in on one. If one really wants to get in, they can increase their odds

[raw quail]

heya

[worthy solar]

My Spam Folder is the equivalent of the Spongebob Episode where they learn about "sentence enhancers"

[versed sail]

That's normal. Usually they'll let you know when the server goes live.

[midnight mantle]

My spam folder has a lot of things about growing things, maybe plants, not sure

[warm plover]

[thick mountain]

I really hoped they’d send an email like “you weren’t chosen this time around”, cause this way I know my email is on their systems, you know?

[worthy rose]

I would take a close look at the NDA

[umbral ferry]

😂

[craggy turret]

Sorry!

[remote latch]

rofl that would take even longer to do compared to sending one to those that did 🙂

[versed sail]

This would make me stop wondering if I typed my email in right!

[vast escarp]

Who got lucky then?

[vernal knot]

hey cat !!

[cyan ruin]

unfortunately it seems that'd be way too much work for the bot. not only does it have to send an NDA and an acceptance to 1200+ people, but also 'im sorry' emails to thousands of others haha

[void imp]

hehe good one

[clear prism]

Devs: and remember: No Paladins.

[midnight mantle]

There are definitely bots who are able to do this, though.

[umbral ferry]

They'd just have to use an actual mail sending provider

[jagged bluff]

if subway can do it LOL

[thick mountain]

Makes sense! I know it’s probably impossible, but if it weren’t, I’d think it’d make lots of people sleep better at night 😂

[cyan ruin]

sure, but thats still quite a bit of work. itd be better for them to just send one confirmation when you apply

[trail stirrup]

mailchimp

[jagged bluff]

i kid

[exotic schooner]

Never refreshed an email as much as I have today haha

[midnight mantle]

Or enable you to receive your responses through the Google form

[dull shard]

mail bots often you have to pay for the # of messages you are sending! so it would be expensive to send a ton of confirmation as well!

[warm plover]

i dont think ive even seen the cat returns
at least not fully, and certainly not at an age where i could comprehend/remember it

[raw quail]

soooo... with Nel posting the gif of the inn, is the villager vote over? I thought it was a tie

[long sundial]

You should change this

[surreal crest]

oh wow I'm actually tired, what the duck

[long sundial]

Also, you're awesome @warm plover

[vast escarp]

Wholesome

[warm plover]

no im not 😛
also yeah i should probably watch more ghibli
i think the only ones ive seen fully are wolf children and my neighbour totoro

[midnight mantle]

Rin is awesome

[warm plover]

stooooop ill blush 😳

[midnight mantle]

Kiki’s should def be on the list soon

[strange rapids]

also such art came out today!

[long sundial]

See, thee's an agreement, you must accept.

[dapper plank]

i havent seen any ghibli :,)

[midnight mantle]

It did! I alpha/beta’d it a while back and it’s exciting to see!

[warm plover]

oh yeah i heard good things about kikis

[rose bison]

Guys im done i go to eat BC of my sadness goodby

[strange rapids]

Yeah same, not even that much of a artsy person but still picking it up

[coarse viper]

How long does it normally take for someone who got the invite to get their discord tags updated?

[lyric flower]

Wolf Children isn’t Ghibli but all of the Ghibli Films are great. I suggest Princess Mononoke and Howls Moving Castle.

[long sundial]

What's BC? And buhbye

[wispy pine]

anyone else not got there invite yet?

[quick dove]

I'm surprised Rin isn't a indoctrinated Pre-alpha tester after the VC incident

[remote latch]

Speaking of Rin .. 🙂 If you haven't looked at them already, there are 2 Unofficial FAQs that streamline what we have learnt from the Devs since day 1 on the server. We may mention these occasionally but while you frantically wait for that possible email invite .. here are the links in case you haven't read them.

[thorny dune]

I think it's manual so maybe a while

[rose bison]

Beacuse

[warm plover]

go to bed
how do chairs sleep

[surreal crest]

on 4 legs lol

[long sundial]

We think that they're waiting until they're all done sending.

[midnight mantle]

LOL

[tender lily]

Did they give rolls yet for people in pre alpha?

[surreal crest]

also not yet, I gotta be sure I didn't get in

[olive heath]

lets see..., not yet from 2nd wave

[coarse viper]

Gotcha, makes sense to me.

[warm plover]

☺️

[long sundial]

This is actually a big reason why. I realized that Rin did this, and her awesome level grew three sizes that day.

[coarse viper]

They're doing this manually? Ouch

[rough root]

😂

[trail stirrup]

we dont know

[midnight mantle]

Rin is “he” 😉

[long sundial]

Someone has to tell the bot who's on the list

[warm plover]

(this rin is a boy btw just letting you know)

[jagged bluff]

Well, its been a long day- im gonna log off and de-stress. Have a good evening everyone

[surreal crest]

Rin is the best boi

[bright forge]

You can say you got it

[warm plover]

am not

[long sundial]

Oh, pink is server booster, sorry. You are best boi

[quick dove]

It might be a bot, but there probably sending them in batches to avoid spam where possible

[celest maple]

Meow

[floral cypress]

If people don't reply to email by a certain time does it get passed to someone else? Like if someone did sign up with multiple accounts and forgot about it.
