[cinder temple]

Hello, practical tactical duck.

[fallen summit]

Good morning everyone!

[sand barn]

Morning Kinjerry, Chair, Duck, and Sim!

My sleep schedule is a hot mess so... Friendly reminder for the opposite timezone I'm normally giving this too 👀
Remember to hydrate, stretch, and grab a snack! Taking care of yourself is important ☺️ I hope you have a fantastic timezone!!!

[somber geyser]

Hello everyone! I just watched the video No Cap Gaming did on YouTube about Palia and I'm exited for this game!!! Can't wait! Hoping to get an invite to be a tester 😅

[hoary ice]

hello bud

[regal swallow]

[fair dragon]

Sorry I fell asleep😭 but I would like to double major in astrophysics and computer science

[regal swallow]

^Astrophysics and computer science

[violet crypt]

hey no need to apologize, and awesome! im actually certified in a few areas in networking!

[fair dragon]

Whoaaa that's cool! How did you do that?

[regal swallow]

Stickers

[violet crypt]

well ive gotten 2 back when i was attending high school on the side, ive just recently got my red hat certification

[fair dragon]

Ohhhhh that's pretty neat! That is something to be hugely proud of😤 I'm double majoring simply because I wanna code my own programs to test my experiments that way I can do multiple things at once instead of having someone else do it

[violet crypt]

oh nice! i started out with coding and programming, but never fully peaked my interest, so i dabbled into networking, and network administration is the career im gonna be getting into, hopefully.

[fair dragon]

Ohhhh that's cool it sounds like you'll have a strong responsibility which is pretty nice 😤

[violet crypt]

yea, depends though, cause starting out, ill probably be in support as a tier 1, maybe tier 2

[regal swallow]

Programming Chapaas to be cuddly companions.

Blessed Fireflies and Happy Timezone Everyone!

[remote latch]

hi @vivid elm . There is no need to eat and sleep ( #❓│old-team-answers-alpha message ) but there will be some reason to do both. So you won't starve. 🙂

[summer obsidian]

and eating...is fun! 😄

[remote latch]

Good morning, I am frozen, send help

[summer obsidian]

Take this blanket!

[stone tulip]

Thank you. I didn't realize it was 38 f this morning, and I wore a light jacket XD

[heavy dew]

That’s easy, just change the F on your thermometer to a C and it’s nice and hot summer!

It’s one of those DIY 5 minute craft life hack things I’m sure

[stone tulip]

If weather machines were real that would be great

[summer obsidian]

Looks at Palia devs most likely developing weather machine mechanics...Woooow!!

[abstract rover]

fox news 🤣

[heavy dew]

Imagine my rage when I realize that channel is complete hypocrisy and doesn’t at all give me the latest news about foxes

[abstract rover]

fox box clocks docks locks

[stone tulip]

I was trying to state the channel jingle or catchphrase only to realize I don't know it

[abstract rover]

OMG TRUUUU where is my news about foxes

that channel should be renamed to "not fox news" cuz its all the news that isnt about foxes 😫

[abstract rover]

does fox even have one?

[heavy dew]

Yeah it’s by that Norwegian group

What does the fox say

[abstract rover]

lmao

[stone tulip]

XD

[abstract rover]

it says "CONSUME THE SOULS OF THE UNWORTHY"

:)

[stone tulip]

With an extra: mimimimimi minimimimi mimimimi

Horrifying words for an overlord...

[abstract rover]

idk foxes be sayin some wild stuff

[stone tulip]

You should of heard what they said about bevers.... my god....

[abstract rover]

gasp

man, fox news better get on that! the world needs to know

[stone tulip]

XD

[abstract rover]

its the hottest fox fact of the modern era

i like how we're completely skirting the line of talking about actual fox news
i love the power of puns

its a beautiful thing

[heavy dew]

🎶 It’s the most wonderful time, of the chat 🎶

[stone tulip]

🤯

[abstract rover]

[stone tulip]

TOO EARLY

[heavy dew]

Agreed

[abstract rover]

it is always too early

[heavy dew]

Christmas starts the first week of December, it falls on November 29th this year, that’s when it’s morally okay to start

[stone tulip]

Where I am people had Christmas stuff out before Holloween....-_-

[heavy dew]

This isn’t my opinion this is worldly facts so no hating on me if you don’t like it

[abstract rover]

it is never morally okay to start christmas before christmas

[heavy dew]

Idk about you but I’m preparing for Easter decorations

[abstract rover]

nah m8 halloween is where its at

halloween 2022 gotta get on it

[stone tulip]

Ah yes, my favorite, discount candy week

Right afterwards when places need to get rid of sweets fast

[heavy dew]

I always get shamed by the clerks on Halloween

[abstract rover]

[heavy dew]

“Oh wow so much candy the children are gonna love you”
Like I’m gonna share

[abstract rover]

lol no sharing

[heavy dew]

They can buy their own candy like adults

[stone tulip]

Kids shouldn't be on the street after dark in the first place

[heavy dew]

Or outside at all when others are outside

[pearl ore]

Kids shouldn't be

[stone tulip]

ITS ONLY NOVEMBER

WHY

[heavy dew]

They have a cult going on

[pearl ore]

Why is it November? Because October ended

[heavy dew]

Because Halloween is octover

[pearl ore]

Yippee Ki-yay

[stone tulip]

It ain't even December nor has it snowed(At least where I am) get rid of your profile pic until December at least XD

[abstract rover]

halloween can go boo off

[heavy dew]

HANS

[sand barn]

I'm just a fly in the ointment Hans

[pearl ore]

I need to watch very soon. It's been nearly a year since I've seen it

[stone tulip]

I've never seen it

[heavy dew]

GAAAAAPPP

[stone tulip]

I have no idea what you guys have been referencing, XD

[heavy dew]

The best Christmas movie: Die Hard

[stone tulip]

Alrighty then

[abstract rover]

die hard is a good christmas movie

[worthy rose]

you know what's crazy to think about? There's people alive today who are older than America

[heavy dew]

That is true, I read it online

[stone tulip]

wut?

[celest maple]

When is the pre alpha droping?

[heavy dew]

Pre alpha has already ended, there’s more information in #❓│old-team-answers-alpha

[celest maple]

Oh

[heavy dew]

Pre alpha concluded about a month ago, alpha is scheduled to be sometime in the first half of next year

[worthy rose]

I miss Palia :( need the full release so bad

[celest maple]

Ok but when is the actual game droping and is it free?

[heavy dew]

In less than 3 years and nothing is free

[vapid cedar]

amogus is free

[heavy dew]

They haven’t talked about how it’s gonna be monetized yet though

[worthy rose]

all we know is less than 3 years
we don't know if it's free or not, they haven't said anything about monetization

[heavy dew]

It’s not

[vapid cedar]

yup it is

[stone tulip]

I'm back to the turquoise name, there are too many people with the red name, XD

[vapid cedar]

you paid for amongus?!

[heavy dew]

Didn’t say I did, just that it’s not free, someone funded it and paid for it

[celest maple]

3 years dude gaming is boring and i want play palia so bad

[vapid cedar]

???????

[worthy rose]

the holding your breath game is free

[stone tulip]

Cats and Soup is free

[heavy dew]

Ah shoot you’re right Nish

[pearl ore]

Less than 2 years 7 months, to be specific

[vapid cedar]

yea thats a good one

[heavy dew]

Not 3 years, less than

[worthy rose]

tbh this actually makes it feel faster

[heavy dew]

Almost less than 2 1/2 years

[celest maple]

Yeah but its less then 3 years so it means ab 1 year at least

[marble hedge]

2 years, 7 months, 2 days....

[pearl ore]

It does

[heavy dew]

Next month we can say <2.5

[stone tulip]

After 84 years...

[pearl ore]

It's been 84 years

[heavy dew]

It’s been 84 years

[vapid cedar]

nvm

[pearl ore]

Berry are in the same page, it's a page with Die Hard on it

[worthy rose]

3 years isn't that long to wait for a game... skyrim released a decade ago and they still haven't announced the new release date

[heavy dew]

Hecc yee

[pearl ore]

Yippee ki-yay

[heavy dew]

Thank you for this

[stone tulip]

Hytale announced three years ago

[heavy dew]

No minecraft announced a really long time ago

[worthy rose]

The first time I played minecraft was before they added hunger :(

[stone tulip]

I started playing in 2011

[heavy dew]

I almost feel bad for Notch

[stone tulip]

Why?

[worthy rose]

point being, game time is never instantaneous and 3 years will fly by

[stone tulip]

True

[heavy dew]

Because of the shit storm he got just because a game he never intended to launch world wide, blew up

[stone tulip]

Gatcha

[heavy dew]

It’s a very good point, and I agree.. 3 years is no time at all

[worthy rose]

in fact, 3 years ago I was the same age that I am today! That's how fast it is

[heavy dew]

In fact it’s almost 2 years ago Covid broke out, and that was yesterday!

[pearl ore]

3 years ago sea of Thieves had been out for 7.5 months and it felt like an eternity waiting for it to launch

3 years ago BotW and the switch had been out for more than a year and a half

[stone tulip]

It's been two years since World's Adrift announced its end

[pearl ore]

2050 is closer than 1990

[worthy rose]

Monster Hunter: World, RDR2, Celeste, and SSBU all released 3 years ago

[stone tulip]

I feel like we're all reminiscing about things, anyone who watches anime remember Exarm?

[heavy dew]

Tony stark died 3 years ago

[pearl ore]

3 years ago we were 1 year away from meeting The Mandalorian

[stone tulip]

Endgame was made three years ago? Dang!

[heavy dew]

Yup, so was Joker, detective Pikachu, it 2, frozen 2, Aladdin (live action), amongst other big box office releases

[stone tulip]

We don't talk about live action Aladdin

[pearl ore]

I saw end game

[heavy dew]

Theres no live action movie in ba sing se

[pearl ore]

I didn't see those other movies

[stone tulip]

Yes, XD

[heavy dew]

They gave the joker the wrong colored suit

That’s the most important detail of the movie

[pearl ore]

I wish I hadn't seen infinity war. Felt like I wasted my time

[solid grove]

o/

[stone tulip]

Detective Pikachu is actually pretty decent. They made Mewtwo way too ridiculous, unless that's what the game did then nevermind.

[worthy rose]

I feel like a duck is lurking

[stone tulip]

[spring rivet]

Always

[worthy rose]

gm duck

[heavy dew]

DUCKY!

[stone tulip]

Morning👋

[spring rivet]

I feel like y'all craving for some mangoes 🥭 🥭 🥭 🥭

[pearl ore]

Gm = give mango?

[heavy dew]

I’m craving some donuts, oh wait, I have donuts, I’m gonna eat a donut

[stone tulip]

I had mango recently. It's very interesting

[heavy dew]

Oh you got one?!

[pearl ore]

It's the best fruit

[spring rivet]

A mango-flavoured doughnut

[pearl ore]

Would eat

[stone tulip]

My mom bought two, we have yet to try the second but we tried the first one. It wasn't bad

[worthy rose]

I'd accept a mango

[hollow crystal]

i love ducks.

[stone tulip]

Tastes kinda like peach

But not

XD

[heavy dew]

They’re similar in a sense yeah

But not

[stone tulip]

Best easy description, it's kinda like this thing
But not

[heavy dew]

Humans tend to like similarities when describing, silly humans

[stone tulip]

Yep, how else are you able to get the point across otherwise👍

[heavy dew]

By saying “beyond anything you’ve ever experienced before and not like anything else you’ve ever had, it’s completely new and you have no idea how to approach it” - that’ll give them confidence to try something new!

[stone tulip]

Fair

[heavy dew]

Very scary stuff

[lost tiger]

good morning fellow palians

[heavy dew]

Hey Rusty!

[stone tulip]

I mean, I had an idea on how to approach the mango, I ate it

[lost tiger]

how did you know its me!!!!!

[stone tulip]

Also hello!

[heavy dew]

Oh dang how ballsy

[lost tiger]

do you know what today is? 1 day closer to finishing palia LEL

[heavy dew]

I’m psychic!

[stone tulip]

🤯

[stone tulip]

You're not wrong XD

[lost tiger]

i donno if i have more questions to ask about palia now. i pretty much asked all i wanted but i just want to see more art lol

[heavy dew]

All the art! I love art!

[stone tulip]

I want to see more official creatures

[worthy rose]

how would you describe colors to a completely blind person?

[heavy dew]

Just ask them to picture a blueberry

Duh

Clue is in the name

[abstract rover]

your cousins are boring. they dont even fly

[spring rivet]

Not all birds can dive

[pearl ore]

Eyes are part of the brain that exist outside of the cranium

[spring rivet]

I wonder if we have freezing island in Palia a place for penguins

[abstract rover]

what happens when a blind person stares into the sun

[pearl ore]

Their eyes burn like everyone else

[worthy rose]

I want a snow area in palia so bad! Imagine if you could set it to always be snowing at your house !!!!!

[abstract rover]

but they wouldnt know why.

[spring rivet]

Build a snowman in Einar's shape!

[pearl ore]

They might. If you're outside on a sunny day and point your face toward the sun, you feel your whole face get warmer

[sand barn]

The sun is a lie

[mighty locust]

If you lose one sense your other senses tend to get more sensitive to compensate

[heavy dew]

It’s a hoax

The sun, that is

[abstract rover]

the sun is indeed a deadly laser

[heavy dew]

Love that video

[mighty locust]

I mean technically yes? Shootin those uv rays at us

[heavy dew]

What’s his name again?

[abstract rover]

bill wurtz

[heavy dew]

That’s the one, genius that man

[mighty locust]

Gotta watch that it sounds like xD

[heavy dew]

Bill Wurtz - history of everything I guess

[abstract rover]

look up "history of the entire world i guess"

[heavy dew]

Or history of the world, or something

[ocean reef]

Hi Just sitting in my favourite chair now, will be in lurking mode got to check my game, but always keep up with the chat here.

[regal swallow]

[stone tulip]

Being completely blind is actually very rare. Most of the time those who lost their sight or were born blind can see the light in a room. They can tell they're looking at an object giving off light.

However I have now moved to the floor and am sitting in front of a heater because 65 is too cold

[regal swallow]

Hot and you're cold.

[worthy rose]

You're yes then you're no
You're in then you're out
You're up then you're down

[pearl ore]

laser light is coherent, sunlight isn't. the sun isn't a laser, it's a star

[worthy rose]

the sun is a deadly laser

[regal swallow]

You're a star. A superstar

[pearl ore]

i very agree. 65 is too cold

[pearl ore]

no, it's incoherent. you ever try talking to it? it's got no focus

[stone tulip]

The proton and neutron have happily paired up, but the electron can't join yet because it's too HOT

[heavy dew]

The sun is a deadly laser

[sand barn]

I will use that laser to burn chapaa

[heavy dew]

Good luck

[pearl ore]

no, it's a ball of gas burning millions of miles away

[sand barn]

Thank you, luckily I know where to find them!

[heavy dew]

It’s a functional fusion reactor

[stone tulip]

HARNESS THE POWER OF THE SUN

[pearl ore]

indeed it is

[abstract rover]

the sun is a deadly laser

[dusty root]

So based on that video, I was right and the chapaas ARE looking to steal my pies...

[heavy dew]

It’s their pie you just didn’t know it when you baked it

[dusty root]

If they beg cutely I might give in.

[stone tulip]

Hello!

[dusty root]

Sup

[pearl ore]

nope, the sun is a life sustaining source of energy

[abstract rover]

nobody asked you to use logic and reasoning

[dusty root]

Until it expands in the distant future and destroys all life :v

[abstract rover]

we dont logic around here

[pearl ore]

that's not my problem

[abstract rover]

also, i can MAKE the sun a deadly laser if i use enough mirrors.

[sand barn]

I can make cookies

[heavy dew]

The sun was a deadly laser!

[pearl ore]

nope, the sun was a cloud of gas and other material that coalesced until reaching a mass that generated sufficient gravitational force to begin fusing atoms in a still ongoing chain reaction

[worthy rose]

FLAMING CHAPAAS

[heavy dew]

But, uv rays are deadly lasers

[pearl ore]

nope, the light would still be incoherent, but you could focus it enough to burn stuff

[heavy dew]

Wasn’t there some building in the states that was melting cars due to the angle of the glass facade?

[pearl ore]

nope, they're uv rays. laser = light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation

and i wouldn't be surprised if a building was able to focus light enough to melt your face

[ocean stone]

Nothing like an extra speedy tanning booth amirite

[pearl ore]

indeed

[heavy dew]

You are absolutely right and that’s why we need the deadly laser I mean the space fusion reactor

[real phoenix]

I remember seeing that in english class

[ocean stone]

[heavy dew]

Oh good not just my imagination then xD I thought I remembered

[ocean stone]

Mandela effect is a possibility

[pearl ore]

lasers don't occur naturally

[real phoenix]

I checked the internet, it was the Walkie Talkie building in London

[heavy dew]

YES that’s the one haha

[pearl ore]

henceforth known as the Melty Car building

[heavy dew]

Only when I wanna sound humble, I forget nothing! Or have I? I can’t remember

[worthy rose]

I am a deadly laser

[pearl ore]

you sure are!

[ocean stone]

I'm a walkie talkie

Sorry Anner, you came right when I killed the chat with my awkward comments

LOL, it's okay.

You didn't kill it, Otter, we'll bring it back.

Here comes Anner with the defib

[somber crag]

I do be reviving people.

Hope everyone is doing okaaay this Tuesday.

[heavy dew]

Doing wonderful as always thank you! How are you doing?

[somber crag]

I'm alright. Working remotely today, just taking it easy. Y'know.

[heavy dew]

The natural speed of working from home

[shadow sparrow]

MacOS? Yes/no?

[heavy dew]

TBD

[shadow sparrow]

I don’t understand

[heavy dew]

Not disclosed yet

[somber crag]

Lol, for a split second... I thought he was just asking for personal opinions on MacOS, so I had "no" typed in before Berry sent his response.

[shadow sparrow]

Lol

[heavy dew]

I’m just assuming it’s if Palia will be on MacOS, which if that’s the question, they haven’t disclosed that information yet, but if personally? Then no

[shadow sparrow]

Ohhh, thanks

[heavy dew]

They have said they want to expand to as many platforms as they can with mobile being a high priority. So it’d say there’s a chance

Fedora Chapaa?

Are you okay Auni? Auni are you okay?

Omg xD that works too well

Anner you are now Auni 😄

[tranquil cosmos]

rip Anner

[heavy dew]

She’s okay

Or are you okay anner?

[somber crag]

Honestly, with my name being "Anne" IRL... people would do the, "Annie, are you okay?" all the time to me, so.

[remote latch]

Anner | Auni's twin sister 🤣

[somber crag]

I'm used to it.

[heavy dew]

Now I almost feel bad, it’s the “.” at the end of the sentence that does it

[worthy rose]

Auner

[regal swallow]

Anni

[somber crag]

LOL, okay no! Please no. I just type grammatically correct all the time, I can't help it. My entire educational experience during college was papers, papers, papers. I'm forever stuck typing grammatically correct, 'cause when I don't... it feels wrong. I've been conditioned.

[somber crag]

[remote latch]

I went the opposite route .. I went from correcting people to writing sloppy 🤣

[heavy dew]

I’m just joking ^^ but it’s like when I text my mother and ask anything and the reply is: ok.

[regal swallow]

My style is constant. It always aims to make others happy or content.

[somber crag]

"Annie, are you okay?" "I'm fine."

Whoops. I meant to respond to Berry.

[heavy dew]

It’s the same feeling as when I heard my mother use my full name

[somber crag]

I meant to say that makes sense to you, Xrystal. c:

[remote latch]

Oh yes .. mothers using the full name is always trouble 🙂

[heavy dew]

BERRY B VON BOUCHARD THE THIRD!

I imagine in Palia .. Delailah would be shouting out ... AUNI ( Insert rest of his full name here if Palia has full names ) .. you get your butt in here now and tidy your room.

[remote latch]

but mum .... I was talking to charlie and chip ... aww okay mum

[heavy dew]

And then comes the final nail in the coffin when all she wanted was for you to run to the market and get her some sugar.. and you as a child asked.. “can’t you get it yourself?”

That’s when you knew it was over

[remote latch]

🤣

[stone tulip]

As an aspiring writer this is something I do constantly.

[somber crag]

I believe in you. Have a peer edit your writing. Alternatively, if you happen to have a parent that's an English Major (like my mom), you can ask them to edit. She used to preface her edits to me with, "I hope you still love me after this."

There would be so many red marks. ;~; But I came out on the other side.

[stone tulip]

My mom is not an English major, but she reads my stuff. I have this nasty habit with both my drawing and writing where I criticize it far too harshly. Funny enough, stories I've written years ago seem better than what I'm trying to write currently. I want to try taking a creative writing course or something to improve.

[somber crag]

You absolutely should, if you can! c:
Easier said than done, but try not to put too much pressure on yourself to write something "perfect". Imagine the inspiration you'll get from creating stories in Palia.

[stone tulip]

Definitely, I have a mideval story I've set to the side for a while I could try writing again, XD

Palia would be a perfect way to visualize things

[somber crag]

It would. I'm excited to see what people do.

[ivory edge]

When is open beta coming? I NEED THIS GAME!!!

Please 😀

[brave thorn]

They recently announced the closed alpha to be sometime around the first half of 2022. See #❓│old-team-answers-alpha for more details.

[ivory edge]

Ugh 2022? So no official release for a long time then

[remote latch]

Open beta won’t be for a while yet. We are still 2 years 7 months at most away from release

[brave thorn]

To clarify Xrystal's comment, the dev team stated three months ago that they were "a lot closer than three years to releasing this game." This does not necessarily mean exactly two years and seven months from now.

[remote latch]

The same dev also refined it a few days ago as less than 2 years and 7 months. Link: #💬│palia-discussions message

[surreal crest]

BOOTY QUEEN!

Also hello everyone!

[sand barn]

🍪

[carmine relic]

Huzzah and hello!

[granite fable]

[ocean reef]

Bye for now, off to watch telly with the son.

[midnight oak]

Hello all!

[violet flame]

helllooo

[burnt elm]

Hey hey!

[brave thorn]

Updated my records. I will emphasize though that I would not necessarily take that a "meat and potatoes" type of response. More of a teasing "Soon TM" one. I think its more important to see where the game stands at present by seeing the content releases in #🌠│official-art, #❓│old-team-answers-alpha, the official blog, and social media posts to get a better idea of when we can expect certain release phases of the game.

I guess I just don't like to emphasize vague responses as I feel it can leave potential new players discouraged in the long term, I much rather emphasize the current state of the game to set a realistic and exciting tone what what we can look forward to now in Palia.

That being said, I always thank you for being on top of the most recent dev posts Xrystal.

[heavy dew]

I also approve of setting realistic tones, sadly not everyone can handle realistic, so I just go with <3 to appear friendlier

Also hi!

[brave thorn]

Indeed, I myself am trying to get into the video game industry in general in areas related to marketing and community relations. I am also a Blizzard Forum MVP, and I have learned that providing information that can be appreciated now is far more important.

[heavy dew]

Yeah I agree, but I also know if I ask “when?” And the answer is “currently it’s here” I would get pissed cause my question wasn’t answered, just dodged, you know?

Even if the answer is “sometime in the next 50 years”, “soontm” or “TBD” at least it’s an answer. Is what I meant

[sand barn]

Don't see how saying the exact quote from a developer is considered unrealistic. But that might just be me

[heavy dew]

What I’m saying is it’s safer to just quote a dev answer than give any other answer that may be biased or telephoned

[brave thorn]

Yep, which is why its okay to point out what facts we do know, but just emphasize what is more of a "Soon TM" response over that of a official announcement. Thats the world of community management in video games.

[heavy dew]

I’m sticking with <3 because <2.5 doesn’t have the same ring to it

[stone tulip]

Chat is alive again!

[heavy dew]

Sandre! Welcome back

[stone tulip]

HELLO

[somber crag]

Or, if you're like me, you keep your expectations real low. I'm not anticipating anything until I have a date, and even then.. things can happen. Dates change. So, I just tell myself the game will come out sometime in the next 20 years.

[stone tulip]

And thank you

[heavy dew]

How are you today? Also hi Erin, Anner, Kaede, hope everyone is well

[heavy dew]

Yeah same xD it’ll come out when it’s ready, and if not, oh well at least I had a good time while waiting

[stone tulip]

I am doing well, I found my drawing pencil so I'm drawing the washy mayor

[heavy dew]

Nothing gained while dwelling on things lost - someone (who likely said something similar before I did)

[heavy dew]

Omg where was it..?

[stone tulip]

My bag

[sand barn]

That's why I don't obsess over every word or bit of information that is shared. Anything up to release may change, that's the nature of development..

[heavy dew]

That seems very reasonable you seem like a nice guy have we become friends yet?

[stone tulip]

It was in a pocket in my bag, XD

[sand barn]

We have shared laughter, so, yes

[heavy dew]

I was wrong and not.. mostly wrong.. you don’t draw in your bag but it is a common place..

[sand barn]

We don't know how big Sandre's bag is! Maybe they do draw in a bag

[heavy dew]

This needs an answer now.. are you Newt Scasandre?

[stone tulip]

Welcome to the life of Sandre, I set stuff somewhere and then forget it exists

[stone tulip]

I have a bag of holding 🤯

[heavy dew]

Me too! It’s full of guitars for melee and ukuleles for throwing weapons!

That’s how I play bard btw

[sand barn]

Today we learned, Sandre is secretly Newt Scasandre

[stone tulip]

Mines empty! :D

Also I think I've heard the newt thing, where is that from

[heavy dew]

Blasphemy, no bag of holding is every empty.. unless it literally leads to space..?

Newt Scamander is from magical beasts and where to find them, and he has a suitcase with a zoo inside it

[stone tulip]

HA

[heavy dew]

Like a life sized menagerie

[stone tulip]

Yeah sure I'm newt scasandre XD

[sand barn]

spaaaace, and yes you have to read that in a Tim Curry voice

[midnight oak]

Waiting for the game is why I'm here socializing =3 Hopefully I have more friends by the time the game arrives

[heavy dew]

Always more friends!

How goes the writing?

[sand barn]

I can offer you a 🍪 at the very least

[midnight oak]

🍪

Writing is ok! Not as much as I need for NaNo, but! Rushing would only sour the meal.

[heavy dew]

So it would, wise words spoken from the poet

[carmine relic]

Honestly a guitar as a melee weapon sounds dumb but the "DWA-A-A-NG" sound of it hitting someone full force is the best thing

[stone tulip]

Newt scamander is from magical beasts and where to find them

Makes way more sense

[heavy dew]

Newt Scasandre, as we’ve now discovered

[heavy dew]

Thats just the thing.. my guy is a half orc barbarian who has a passion for music, so he tries to play the strings but he’s anything but remotely close to good.. and as soon as that’s pointed out, it turns into a melee weapon

That goes for the party pointing it out as well, prepare for team damage

And the bag of holding contains only guitars and ukuleles of different varieties

[stone tulip]

The anime FLCL, I've never seen it but if you want pure insanity watch it, it has a girl with a guitar that she whacks people with apparently

[sand barn]

Hitting people with a guitar was fun in L4D

[heavy dew]

Omg yes exactly that sound

[stone tulip]

Man now I want to make a character that has a guitar weapon, first Star Wars Visions now this chat

[sand barn]

I can hear it so clearly

[stone tulip]

Same

Wait which type of guitar, acoustic or electric? I'm hearing electric

[carmine relic]

That one tauntkill in TF2 where the engineer just slams someone's head in with his guitar

[sand barn]

Maybe we can thwack pests in palia with a guitar

[stone tulip]

Step one: Hit things with the loud stringed instrument

Step two: Profit

[remote latch]

@low kernel, just saw your question. At the moment we have a time frame of less than 2 years and 7 months for the game release

[midnight oak]

I feel like by now "When does the game release?" needs to be an inside tease. Like an inside joke, but not as discouraging.
How are you today? "Good, you?" When does Palia come out? "Ah, not sure?"

[heavy dew]

“When?” - “heart years”

[carmine relic]

🔜

[stone tulip]

It's sleeting where I am.........

Now it's just raining....Does that count as first snowfall?

[magic sentinel]

No. XP

how many fireworks do you think you could hold at once

[carmine relic]

Depends on the firework

'Cause I can hold a hundred! ...As a box of firecrackers.

Every single one with the power of the mind

[carmine relic]

No, you're a chair. You're supposed to hold the pile of clothes I won't deal with!

[tardy sentinel]

Hello everyone ^^

I would have thought being a chair you would avoid any chance of flames bursting forth. 🤣

I read with with 0 context and thought my brain broke

[midnight oak]

Sorry Otter xD

[hollow needle]

Holy shit, i just saw a video about this game i didnt know it

this is looking good

Any info about Alpha/Beta stuff?

[tranquil cosmos]

Alpha will be sometime at the beginning of next year. Make sure you signed up

[heavy dew]

My head hurts

Failed high five..

GAMBIT FIX IT PLZ

[remote latch]

or more precisely by the first half of next year. Look at the last set of questions in #❓│old-team-answers-alpha at number 9.

[bright forge]

[heavy dew]

I didn’t even see that Otter didn’t say “first half” - I made an ass out of u and me and assumed

[heavy dew]

[bright forge]

Hi guys

[tranquil cosmos]

I'm gonna say beginning instead of first half in case there is a Christmas miracle lmao. LET ME DREAM

[heavy dew]

You can dream just don’t say something that isn’t accurate xD

I wish it was released yesterday

[remote latch]

maybe add hopefully at the start of the year 🙂

[tranquil cosmos]

Well I guess I wont try to be helpful next time

[bright forge]

well good point 1 January is a first half of the year

[heavy dew]

Oh stop that’s not what anyone is saying and you know it, we got bashed in the past for not quoting exact answers is all

[remote latch]

sorry Otter.. didn't mean to offend you .. 🙊

[heavy dew]

Neither

[worthy rose]

will I get in?

[tranquil cosmos]

Yeah, cuz we're xmas buddies

[worthy rose]

[surreal crest]

you're not getting in for celebrating xmass 2 early

[stone tulip]

Hello!

Sorry for the late reply, I'm watching Star wars visions

[surreal crest]

no worries!

eh I still wait for the god damn cooling for the pc... FFS...

[remote latch]

It's still not there .. sheesh

[worthy rose]

just blow on it real hard?

[heavy dew]

Did you not order next day delivery?

[sand barn]

Put it in the refrigerator

[heavy dew]

Just play outside

In a cold climate that is

[surreal crest]

I filled reclamation... I wait until the end of the week, I won't be without pc for 3 fricking weeks, I have job to do

[sand barn]

Or play games set in cool places.

Yes, we're berry helpful

[heavy dew]

If you quickly move to the states you can sue for discrimination and harassment

You can sue for anything there, it’s like a pastime hobby

[surreal crest]

But hey, the other guys sent me the correct RAM (finally)
ehhh

[sand barn]

No their favorite pastime is baseball

[jade needle]

hello

[surreal crest]

hello new friend!

[carmine relic]

AW YEAH

[heavy dew]

Baseball, lawsuits and hamburgers

[sand barn]

Hmm.. hamburger

[surreal crest]

borgers

[heavy dew]

Borgors in Palia

[jade needle]

hello im new just waiting to see if i get an invite to play the game

[heavy dew]

Fingers crossed!

[sand barn]

Welcome! We hope you enjoy your wait

[jade needle]

thanks i hope i enjoy the wait as well lol

[heavy dew]

It’s a very enjoyable place to wait in

[surreal crest]

That can take a while. Pre alpha ended some time ago, we are probably getting Alpha tests next year

[jade needle]

seems to be so far

so when will the game actually come out?

[sand barn]

Feel free to also pick up a role in #📃│server-directory if you fancy a colour other than white!

[heavy dew]

There’s no date, in less than 3 years

[sand barn]

So far all we know is <3 years

[jade needle]

oh alrighty

[heavy dew]

Alpha is by general timeline mentioned to be sometime in the first half of next year

So that should give an idea

[surreal crest]

We're getting there. Slowly haha

[heavy dew]

Whoa also said “be optimistic” so I mean, be cautiously and realistically optimistic

[surreal crest]

Whoa is big trolly troll

[heavy dew]

Whoa is a great spokesperson, so is Busco

All the trolly answers are the best answers

[worthy rose]

this lmao

[sand barn]

Busco has good burger recipes, I think it was busco

[heavy dew]

My favorite answers from the devs are the ones that answers the question without answering the question

Like this one: #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha message

[sand barn]

Some people build a career around doing that

[jade needle]

.

[carmine relic]

This is just politics

[heavy dew]

Isn’t politics just lying?

[carmine relic]

I dunno. I'm not about to explain the joke either because The Pond Patrol would become displeased

[heavy dew]

Oh no 👀 🦆 🐢

[sand barn]

Don't forget the cookie for Daphne

[rare saddle]

Hey Pals, happy afternoon or whatever time zone you're in!!

[carmine relic]

Happy [[timezone]]!

[remote latch]

There is also this hilarious response : #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha message But what a question 🤣

[heavy dew]

I mean yes, exactly like that

Answering without answering, or intentionally misinterpreting the question or nitpicking words, it’s hilarious

[remote latch]

I wonder if some of the devs from Blizzard here were amongst the ones that helped make the april fools patch notes .. those were funny

[heavy dew]

I got speaking of patch notes, April fools ones or just insane bug fixes

Like the sims 3 patch notes

[brittle halo]

oh good god the sims 3 patches were the most esoteric things I've ever seen

[heavy dew]

It’s one of the few times I’ve laughed until it hurt

[loud axle]

Popping in to say hi, hello, and I miss y'all~

[rare saddle]

I don't know anything about these patch notes y'all are talking about.. for april fool's day?

[sand barn]

Some game developers put out funny patch notes for April 1st. Sims 3 just had rather comic patch notes

If you look up best of Sims 3 patch notes you'll hit a goldmine

[rare saddle]

ah, ok.. lol...

[vale crypt]

🥞 🆚 🧇

who would win ?

[heavy dew]

Me

I would devour both

[remote latch]

pancakes clearly .. oh yeah, Berry 🤣

[sand barn]

TiL there's apparently a Twitter account dedicated to highlighting strange patch notes and changelogs.. out of context.

"Summon deer decoy" has been renamed to "Summon deercoy". Very important

[heavy dew]

I love funny patch notes

Raft had a segment for April fools that claimed they added a lot more seagulls and seagulls now fly in attack formation and occasionally dive bomb the player

[remote latch]

I just posted a small sample of wow's april fools patch notes for 2020 in #🎮│other-games

[tender harbor]

waffles

[hidden lynx]

The dev team is definitely the best at answering without answering 🥺

I love them all so much though like they are making a home for us which is just so thoughtful and nice 🥺 and they always bring some light to the world each day ☺️

Hi xrystal!

I want you to know my phone has stopped correcting your name and has FINALLY learned

[remote latch]

woohoo

[sand barn]

Put the waffle on the pancake!

[heavy dew]

My kind of man

[hidden lynx]

Also happy timezone friends! Reminder to hydrate, stretch, and grab a snack!

[sand barn]

Or the pancake on the waffle, I don't make the rules. I just eat

[heavy dew]

I’m just gonna.. copy and..
My kind of man

[sand barn]

[sand barn]

The real question is, how many pancake waffles can we make in Palia

[heavy dew]

The answer is: all of them

[remote latch]

As many as you have storage for the ingredients and the results 🤣

[sand barn]

We got Newt Sandremander with the bag with lots of space, our supplies are infinite!

[patent hedge]

This game released yet?

[heavy dew]

You’re about <insert time> too early

[patent hedge]

Ok let me know when its released.

[heavy dew]

I thought you said you set an alarm for 3 years, did you lie?

[patent hedge]

I would never say that.

[heavy dew]

No I personally said I’d ping you

[patent hedge]

There we go, that sounds right

[heavy dew]

Then why you back? Wait for my ping damnit, you don’t trust my pinging skills?!

Frankly I’m insulted dear sir

[patent hedge]

Sometimes I miss them pings

thats on me

[heavy dew]

It’s alright, you have my word still

[brave thorn]

Is it here yet? No. Is it here yet? No. Is it here yet? No. (I am feeling a bit trollish today... I should get back to work.)

[patent hedge]

Im just excited. But yea. Ping me.

[heavy dew]

I’m excited too, I get it, why I offer to ping you

[sand barn]

We stand by our word! Someone asked me for a sammich in game, and you're damn sure I'll live up to that

[heavy dew]

You’re all good, we’re all a bit derpy from time to time

[brave thorn]

And for those lurking, let's be clear... Singularity 6 has not made any firm commitments to a release date, but they have given their hopeful timeline for the next testing phase (expected to be closed alpha) in #❓│old-team-answers-alpha.

Don't worry they are still revealing tons of fun content every week!

[marble hedge]

Interesting content, maybe. Fun means I can play with the content 🙂

[heavy dew]

I swear Wippit you’ve gotten more grumpy since you got the wife back.. are the withdrawals that bad at home?

[remote latch]

patiently waiting for this weeks content

[sharp obsidian]

👋 I have arrived.

[heavy dew]

Whoa! It’s Whoa!

[brave thorn]

Is the content here yet? No. Is the content here yet? No. Is the content here yet? No.

[topaz path]

....yes...

[brave thorn]

Commander on deck!

[remote latch]

yaaay .. Whoa is here .. exciting and fun content indeed 🤣

[heavy dew]

I’ll repeat myself I do not envy the inner circle, must be like a therapy support group at this point

[brave thorn]

So what flavor of dressing is everyone having on their salads today? 🥗

[sharp obsidian]

Nacho cheese.

[marble hedge]

Wait wait wait.... content, or content? I'm confused.

[topaz path]

😛

[heavy dew]

I do t eat salads because it’s been scientifically proven that plants have feelings and I’m not about to hurt a plant.. so I’m having fish!

[marble hedge]

Chapaas hurt plants.

[heavy dew]

They’re cute so it’s okay for them to

[marble hedge]

TIL: Berry isn't cute.

[heavy dew]

Chapaas can do anything they want, they’re the superior species

[remote latch]

Are you saying you're not cute Berry ? 🤣

[topaz path]

ow!

[heavy dew]

I’m a human, of course I’m not cute

Humans are awful creatures that have disgusting things as feelings

OF COURSE IM NOT CUTE

[remote latch]

but you are Berryfic ?

[heavy dew]

I’m handsome beyond compare

[spiral crow]

I'm patiently waiting for the awesomeness that will be this game, so ready for nights of relaxing fishing and stacking objects to the sky (if you can stack objects that is)

[topaz path]

:cough: paliachat :cough: Deliliah would like to have a conversation about those plants and how much a chapaa can do with her farm

[heavy dew]

And humble, very humble, my best skill is how humble I am

I am the BEST at being humble

[marble hedge]

Chapaas are good fertilizer?

[topaz path]

👀

[remote latch]

I think you can stack objects as long as they fit in the space they are stacked .. but whether that is just inside your house or includes your whole lot I don't know [S6] EinarHugBestHug — 06/03/2021 It may not be 100% free so you can't place items inside each other but you can clutter surfaces like tables or shelves with little items so long as they all fit.

[heavy dew]

She knows what business she’s in, chapaa playground farmer

[topaz path]

❔ ❓

[heavy dew]

All your base are belong to chapaa

Surrender all possessions to chapaa

[marble hedge]

My warning yous: Chapaas no like outsiders. Don't 'spect a warm welcome.

[sharp obsidian]

So, a digital version of Jenga?

[heavy dew]

If a chapaa wants to use your leg as a scratching post it’s their right

[remote latch]

ooh that sounds fun .. pass that idea of yours to the devs that need it 🙂

[sand barn]

Can chapaa stack like Goomba?

[heavy dew]

3 chapaas in a trench coat says yes

[marble hedge]

You take a chapaa from the bottom and you put it on top....

[sand barn]

They will need a fancy Indiana Jones hat

[heavy dew]

Oh hell yes

[sand barn]

And a moustache

Someone make it happen!

[spiral crow]

Naw I just think it would be fun to buy a bunch of plates/bowls for my house and try and stack them to the ceiling. Stacking things is fun and its just another relaxing thing that would be nice

[vale crypt]

[stone tulip]

So apparently drawing stout overweight older men (Kenji) is easier than drawing a young dude who cooks (Reth)

[remote latch]

yep my first attempt at him last time was surprisingly easy

[heavy dew]

Yeaaaaaaaaa I agree

[stone tulip]

Glad I'm not the only one who has this opinion, XD

[brave thorn]

By the ways, new video meme in #🎭│palia-memes

[stone tulip]

It's great

XD

[heavy dew]

Awwww you gave the little fella a cute soundtrack!

[violet crypt]

howdy

[heavy dew]

ydwoH

[carmine relic]

Aye!

[smoky siren]

i just saw a question about a hunger/thirst bar. god i hope not. they are the worst parts of survival games and they are hard to make feel right.
"corn on the cob is easy to make and easily accessible, therefore you need to eat 100 of them to feel full from an empty stomach" yeah okay dude.

[heavy dew]

This isn’t a survival game don’t worry, there’s no health or death and eating gives benefits when doing not downfalls when not

This is the dev response to a similar question: #❓│old-team-answers-alpha message

Well, same question really

[smoky siren]

yeah i didn't think they would put that in just because it's more about home building/adventuring than surviving a harsh environment, but still lol

[heavy dew]

Cozy life sim ^^

[brave thorn]

Berry is fast today

[heavy dew]

Cherry Allen, fastest berry alive

Nyoom lightning trail

[sand barn]

Cozy... or else

[smoky siren]

no health or death is interesting though. i expected there to be more risk when adventuring

[heavy dew]

No hostile environment or combat at all atm actually

And if they add it later it’s likely to be optional to partake in

[remote latch]

whether that will be at release or not is unknown .. still early days yet

There's no stamina drain either .. they tried it and hated it .. so its gone 🤣 [S6] EinarHugBestHug — 06/03/2021 We tried a stamina system and we all hated it, so... we're coming up with something else.

[smoky siren]

lol

[heavy dew]

Yeeted

[remote latch]

And if anyone out there in lurker land wants to see the dev comments ( at least the ones I found ) regarding combat/action/dungeons etc this link is where I posted them all ( #💬│palia-discussions message )

[buoyant heath]

Thanks Greg

[heavy dew]

It’s CinnaanniC!

[remote latch]

And housing related ones for people that haven't seen these quotes yet .. wow did I really post this 3 months ago .. seems much more recent than that. 🤷‍♀️ Anyway.. #💬│palia-discussions message

[rare saddle]

my personal favorite is a raspberry vinaigrette on salad with goat cheese, apple, and orange bits... and some craisins!

[heavy dew]

Time flies! But yeaaah

[brave thorn]

Now I am hungry for an old salad I used to get where I worked.

[heavy dew]

An old salad?! Kaede I don’t think that’s healthy!

(I had too)

[rare saddle]

except I'm having trouble with his hands. I want him to be holding a plate/platter and I'm a bit stuck. Going to look up ref pics.

[stone tulip]

Ref pics are amazing, hands are horrible and fun to draw at the same time, XD

[rare saddle]

I agree!!!!

[brave thorn]

Well, a salad that is no longer on the menu... A topic for another time in #🍜│food-and-noms

[heavy dew]

I figured ^^ just being a tease

[cloud ginkgo]

when will the game realese ?

release

[heavy dew]

In less than 3 years, alpha is a scheduled sometime in the first half of 2022

No official release date as of yet

[hidden lynx]

I mean think of it this way, the Games foundations are Community and Cozy vibes. Having alot of stress while adventuring and having to fight stuff takes away from the cozy aspect of it. So in my personal opinion I think creating an MMO that is so DRASTICALLY different than every other one on the Market is amazing. There isn't combat of pvp (and if there is pvp its more in the line of fishing contests or the like) And you get to focus on exploring, building a community, learning the lore of the world, and building a home within the world of Palia. And I think that is a beautiful and magical thing

[rare saddle]

and fingers are crossed I'll get into the alpha testing!!!

[heavy dew]

There’s no way the internet cable owls lose my invite again.. right?

Right?

[carmine relic]

Ok, I'm back, now!

[heavy dew]

Welcome back my dear Gambit

[hidden lynx]

I think the beauty and wonderfulness of what S6 is making here will far outshine everything that has come before it. They are creating someplace that we can feel at home in so many way that matter. They all very much care about the game they are creating, and breaking the molds and standards in SO many ways to give us something new. They are breathing new life into a genre that for so many years has been the same. I can not wait to see the end product and what they come up with by the time it is released. But honestly everything so far has been beyond my wildest dreams and everything I have ever wanted in a game and SO much more.

And we have only seen the very beginning, the tip of the iceberg. There is so much more to come and it is just so exciting to see the game grow along the way 🥺 Like I can not wait to look back through and be like look at the way the characters grew and developed from this little player card to this npc we know and love. Or the way the world as whole gets shown to us in pieces that are just ideas now but later will be explorable and its just so incredible to see it be created and the fact that they share all of that with us is amazing 🥺

I am apparently very sappy about Palia today >.> I shall stop xD so sorry - saw the comment and had apparently lots of thoughts xD

[rare saddle]

I agree 100% with all of what you said... this is why I'm so excited to play this game!!

I appreciate your thoughts 🙂

[hoary ice]

Yeah, me cant wait for Palia to come out

[hidden lynx]

Tomorrow is 5 months of Palia being announced and I am definitely in my feels today about that

[hoary ice]

It feels a bit like Free Realms on steroids to me, if you knew the game u understand

[rare saddle]

awe 🙂 well I can see that!!

[hidden lynx]

I have been here from day one super early on and just I love this game, the community, and the dev team eternally

[smoky siren]

yeah i don't like pvp and wouldn't ever ask for it. i simply meant i thought there were going to be monsters and other enemies out in the wilds when adventuring away from town. i don't think it would take away from the cozy vibes at all.

[rare saddle]

me too 🙂 I found out about it almost immediately when it was announced. It's been so fun watching our community share and grow!

[hidden lynx]

like i joined when all we had was an ask the team, palia chat, and introduce yourself... thats all this discord had and its grown so much since day one

[rare saddle]

there will be hunting, from what I understand.

[smoky siren]

i've read that too

[hidden lynx]

hunting is a thing! I can't wait for them to show more on all the different skills in general but hunting is pretty awesome!

[rare saddle]

I'm excited to try hunting 🙂 and fishing, too, but especially hunting. And designing my own home!!

[hidden lynx]

Wanna know what else is crazy? The initial trailer on twitter has 1 million views which is so cool

Xrystal you coming to be sappy with me

[remote latch]

It's early days .. it's possible that later down the line as the story evolves there might be a need for that optional danger element for those that want to brave the adventure areas with that level of requirement. But that could be months or even years after release depending on how quickly the story jumps from event to event ( chapter to chapter ) etc.

[hidden lynx]

Gah I am so excited about the story evolving and continuing as we play 🥺

[remote latch]

And, as they have said .. some items they are considering may get decided on via a survey from us .. so that they get as much player input as they can even after release. Costanius — 06/04/2021 @[S6] BuscoBear Will there be oceans, islands, ships and sea travel? [S6] BuscoBear — 06/04/2021 If I get my way, yes! But the community helps prioritize new features as much as anyone. Fill out surveys when you get them!

[hidden lynx]

yeah they super care about your feedback and suggestions for the game guys its so wonderful 🥺 like they all care SO MUCH about this community and how we feel about their labor of love its so heartwarming to see

[rare saddle]

right... already I've got the warm fuzzies 🙂

[heavy dew]

Isn’t it on Thursday? Since it was announced on a Thursday?

[hidden lynx]

No?

[remote latch]

5 calendar months 3rd to 3rd .

[heavy dew]

Alright, got it

[hidden lynx]

It was announced June 3rd >.>

[heavy dew]

I’m counting complete weeks

[hidden lynx]

Today is the second... so tomorrow is the third >.>

[summer coral]

Actually excited for a game again.

[hidden lynx]

oh what xrystal said yeah

I literally ONLY know the date because its 2 days before my birthday >.>

[rare saddle]

oooh!!! that makes it extra special!!

[heavy dew]

I just count complete weeks so it’s easy to count exact days, getting ready for day 200 you know

[hazy grove]

Is there info on release and such?

[hidden lynx]

IT DOES! The devs are so great some of them told me happy bday when I said something in chat and the whole community was so nice that whole day 🥺 And then I became queen like idk ... a week or two later? it was pretty early on

[hidden lynx]

no there is not, we only know less than three years

[carmine relic]

Wait- it is?!

[hidden lynx]

YES GAMBIT look at how far we have come friend

[smoky siren]

no dates for release, no dates for alphas. nothing. if there is anything, it'll be easy to spot. announcements. trailers. all that good stuff.

[heavy dew]

Day 200 falls on December 20th btw

If I didn’t miscount

[hidden lynx]

per google yes

[heavy dew]

Google backing up my week count then I’m good to go!

[carmine relic]

Time should keep flying, then

[hidden lynx]

I will probably be sappy more tomorrow guys like i just love it here

What do you think we should do for day 200?

I feel like we should plan a party...

WAIT what about Dec 3 being 6 months????

We should plan things...

[heavy dew]

I’ll be getting ready for Christmas on the 20th ^^

Loads of christmases to celebrate

[hidden lynx]

hmmm maybe we celebrate 6 months then? thats easier and sooner? and between holidays?

I can put together a trivia night >.> for the whole community? that could be fun!

[carmine relic]

CHRISTMAAS

[hidden lynx]

We could do jackbox, and gartic phone, and I could work on trivia thats all Palia related, we can watch the trailer and be excited together... and just all hang out and talk all things palia for the whole day???

OHMG WHAT IF

[remote latch]

Some numbers for you 🙂 ```Discord Numbers
2 October - 104,706
28 October - 108,171
2 November - 108,511 ( 340 new members since 28th ) (3,805 since 2nd)

average of 68 per day since 28th October
average of 122 per day since 2nd October```

[heavy dew]

Whoop whoop! Statistics bot!

[hidden lynx]

I do like jeapordy, and lots of trivia type game shows? Family feud and stuff like that? And we could like ask qeustions based on all the info we have so far???

I wanna do this...

would anyone want to do this??? or is this a totally bad idea and no one would want to??

[remote latch]

I talk about Palia every day any way 🙂 no need for a special celebration .. and most of the games you mention I have never heard of 🤣

[faint dawn]

Ah yes, gartic phone...

[heavy dew]

Me and a couple of us from here have done a couple games including Gartic phone, it’s always good fun

I’m almost always down for game nights but I can’t say to far in advance if I’m available or not

[hidden lynx]

I shall work on it >.>

[remote latch]

I just enjoy the additional hype when we reach a milestone 🙂

[hidden lynx]

I has plans >.>

[brave thorn]

I like The Price is Right, mainly because its a show where the goal is to make everyone (including the viewer) be happy. Its a lot of the same reason why I am attracted to games like Palia.

Can we bid on ceramic chapaas?

[heavy dew]

Ooooo chapaa decorations

[cinder temple]

Long time; we've done 18 weeks of art challenges together.

[hidden lynx]

I would love to do this >.> I will get to work on ideas and figure out what we can do >.>

[heavy dew]

Simuel!

And many more to come!

[cinder temple]

You

[heavy dew]

Yes, it is you

It is us, we, me, you, I

[hidden lynx]

Dinner is done I have to run and watch a movie will back later >.>

if you have ideas on a 6month celebration DM ME PLEASE

[heavy dew]

Enjoy the movie!

[pearl ore]

I think for a 6 month celebration we should all act like we don't know each other and don't know how we got here

[green kraken]

✨🎃Hope everyone had a Wonderful Halloween!🎃✨

(And Celtic New Year, and Day of the Dead, and a happy start to Lord of the Rings Month!🍂)

[pearl ore]

This month is lord of the rings month?

I'm not against it, but when did that become a thing?

[hoary ice]

I cant wait that much

[fallen summit]

Hi Karsa! Good to have you back How are you doing?

[inner cove]

hiii

[green kraken]

Hi! Hi! I’m good! Kit keeps me busy so I mostly lurk these days, haha! How have you been?

[fallen summit]

Being quite busy with college but otherwise doing good.

[green kraken]

I don’t think it’s very official, but Lord of the Rings always becomes a hot topic around this time of year and my wife and I celebrate thanksgiving by feasting all day to the 11 hour extended edition, haha!

[pearl ore]

That's a fine tradition

[green kraken]

Thank you thank you~ we think so too!

[heavy dew]

Omg karsa! Dear!

[green kraken]

Hi Lord Berry! ✨

[heavy dew]

Hello! Happy late Halloween to you!

[green kraken]

Happy late Halloween to you too! I hope you had a wonderful time!!

[heavy dew]

Always! It’s my default setting!

[green kraken]

Glorious!

[heavy dew]

I’m gonna ask, the gee ol’ generic social construct question..

So, how’s the family? @green kraken

[carmine relic]

Happy Halloween!

[remote latch]

Well, it might not be quite that long .. it was 'much less than 3 years' back in June and the same dev said 'less than 2 years 7 months' the other day. So, time is going by. Slow for some and fast for others.

[green kraken]

The family is wonderful!
Kit chooses violence and goes to war for every. single. nap.
But Fox and I have heavily gotten into baking! I’m working on Sugar cookies with royal icing decoration and she’s mastering cake pops!!
♥️✨

[heavy dew]

Oooooooo that sounds lovely! You know.. besides the.. yeah, but that’s self inflicted so no sympathy ^^

Only well wishes

[green kraken]

Haha, yeah, thanks!

[hoary ice]

I have some other games to attend to so its nice, but still, this mmo sounds like what i’ve been waiting for for years.

[remote latch]

yeah it looks like it works for many of us

[heavy dew]

I also recommend caramel flan oat cookies, my mothers recipe is beyond amazing

[tardy sentinel]

😮

I just noticed that the Server Icon now has animated rain 😮

oops >< yeah I'm super late to the party lol

Awwe I love little subtle changes like that!

[brave thorn]

Palia is always finding ways to make us smile!

[robust robin]

ye

[tardy sentinel]

I am positively giddy at the thought of my character cozied up on the couch watching it rain outside in Palia 😮

hopefully we'll be able to see through windows in real time like that

[heavy dew]

I have word from the artist who made it.. they’ll make the icon snow for Christmas 👀

[tardy sentinel]

https://tenor.com/view/anna-frozen-giddy-excited-so-gif-12410907

[heavy dew]

When he mentioned it, I did that face yes, it’s such a cute idea

[tardy sentinel]

That is awesoem!

[remote latch]

rofl .. that is how I am like when we have a few inches of settled snow for 5 minutes 🤣

[brave thorn]

Not a good day to be in my other game community right now... so glad to be able to come here and hug a chapaa whenever I need to.

[carmine relic]

I always like checking up on this server whenever I ain't feeling too good

[ocean reef]

Bye all, see you later, logging off, enjoy your hatting Palia peeps.

oops chatting, ink ran out again.

[remote latch]

@rotund flint , hi, If you look at the last lot of #❓│old-team-answers-alpha question 9 was answered to say by the first half of next year we will have alpha. It will be a small portion of the signed up list, but more than there were for Pre-Alpha ( 1.4k). Beta will likely be later on down the line, too early to have a time frame for that at the moment. - Link: #❓│old-team-answers-alpha message

[remote latch]

le sigh .. even when I try to help it goes pear shaped

[hidden lynx]

whatcha mean?

[remote latch]

MaskDev posted in here as if he was talking to someone about a character in another game. So I let him know he might have had the wrong channel and all he did was say sorry several times and delete his post and then quit the server it seems.

[hidden lynx]

I think it will be okay!

[remote latch]

I don't know .. if they quit the server over it .. isn't a good sign 😦

[hidden lynx]

Do you wanna dm me and chat more about it?

[remote latch]

nah its cool. I just feel bad about it.

thanks though

[hidden lynx]

I don't think you should feel bad about trying to help people? or letting them know they are in the wrong channel if they go off topic that much?

[remote latch]

ah .. looks like they left before due to a discord clear out .. so maybe they will be back again later.

[brave thorn]

Just remember that while members of the community like you, Brittany and I are all very passionate about the game. Don't stress too much about trying to keep things "tidy". People are going to be making mistakes when it comes to posting content in different channels. As I see it, as long as they are not deliberately attempting to troll the community, I personally just let it be. (And if a user is trying to sabotage or troll, then I rather ping the mods,)

[rain carbon]

It's ok @remote latch You're just trying to help him. It always happen to me so please don't feel sad

[brave thorn]

On a side note, it could be worse... our community could be on a message board platform...

[remote latch]

Oh .. darn it .. now I feel worse .. he was kinda talking about about Palia .. a Palia dev ..

[brave thorn]

Well... its "go home" time... be back on the server in about an hour.

[cinder temple]

As a bot, you should know better than anyone that machine learning isn't a perfect science (yet!) You always go in with the intention of being helpful, even when you make a mistake, and that intention is what matters. The fact that you feel bad at all is a sign that you're a good person who cares a lot about others. 💙

[remote latch]

Thanks Sim 🙂 Just a minor hiccough in my programming 🤣

[regal swallow]

[cinder temple]

boop

[regal swallow]

Community night idea: Making your best chapaa noise impression?

[remote latch]

chittering

although those tusks could make chittering sound more like gnashing

[burnt elm]

heyo!

[remote latch]

thanks for stopping by 🙂

hi kaen

[deep frigate]

hey xrystal
