AHM
I'm...I'm actually from Kentucky 
Bless you
Well have I got a neighbor for you!
I have no neighborhood T.T
Nothing wrong with being a free agent!
don't worry .. there are 2+ years to go .. ๐
Should I create one ? Idk
I will be toasting hosting a Toast collective. Anyone is free to join. We have gluten free options available ;)
This better not be an NFT thing... ๐ซ
Seeing as we don't know how involved the neighbourhood system will be ( seeing as this is a community sim mmo ) it's wise to wait until we know more ๐
I just want to provide jam to all of Palia. Which probably means working with the Toast people quite a lot.
How does it work? Would neighborhood's have a whole server/world for themselves or is it just that they have a small village?
Indeed, ok! ๐
Undisclosed
ABSOLUTELY NOT We are just a humble bread box neighborhood
Nice Friendly Toast
Fair enough
hello joined via reddit post
we don't know that much yet .. but there are plenty of suggestions about those types of options
NFT: Nice Fresh Toast
OH NO
welcome Beerus
๐ง
Berrrrry!!!! 
Hi Beerus!
Based. Make chilli tomato jam, I'll be the Welsh cheesemonger, we get in cahoots with the toast company, mate we're laughin.
Excited to get back into Palia and see what's new :)
Do you want to be burnt toast? We don't judge. You do you.
Hope everyone is having a great morning <3
Roan!!! 
Long time no Roan!
I just want a proper English breakfast
Anyway, hi! I'm Dawn, I plan to be your local farmer who always stocks up on something~
lol
Hi Dawn! Whatcha stocking up on?
Owls probably
no, I am an owl! I don't need to stock up on those.
It's definitely been awhile! Been a lot going on lately
Oh right!
Worms?
I'll provide the indestructible and unopenable jars
So will I only see you active at night?
I'm gonna be the local fisher who tries her best to overfish the lake. Gotta supply fishes for cooks.
some owls are diurnal
Hey! Listen! I am the established Jam Queen of Palia!
Ahh, the communities first capitalist
What I plan to stock up on if you'll let me answer the original question!
Are things like, if there's an item I can get my hands on, I want to get my hands on two. And then if someone needs one posthaste, I'll have it available.
I want to always have more than I need so that I can share with the community :)
I'll be the guy who keeps yelling / asking for a golf mini game until everyone wants to play mini golf โณ ๐
cinna toasty
If we can grow a crop, and I have a quest to do so, I'll grow more than I need. Sell some, turn in some for the quest, and put a healthy amount in storage.
I'll be expecting my berry smoothie soon csr...
Visions of Alannah fishing golf balls out the lake
it's how I play Harvest Moon games!
Your what now?
u got it boss
Sup Berry ๐

Hiya Alannah ^^
Rune Factory had all sorts of request board things for X many of Y thing, and I always kept more than I needed to repeat them.
๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ
OOH a player request board for things would be nice. Fill them and get payment or goods in return.
that has been suggested ๐
I know it's been suggested, and I'm hoping for it! Because I wanna be that supplier ๐
Yea prolly. I just haven't been active here in a while. The wait was killing me XD
c s a r
Have the alpha invites already been sent out? or are they being sent out on a later date?
Alpha invites are rolling out until the 15th, I believe!
Being sent out until Tuesday, minus the weekend
I'm requesting some jam for my toast
sweet ty
The pinned post has all the answers .. cross your fingers if you signed up before yesterday ... cry a little if you only just signed up
Jam?
Good Morning everyone!! ๐
So is the main uhhh meta progression of the game going to be market driven, like we gather stuff and trade and money and stuff to get more stuff?
โช๏ธ โก ๐ท
there is an economy .. not sure if that is the main progression path though
OHHH CLEVER
Nothing looks like R!
Found my questions to the devs from June 3rd 2021. They seemed to like the mini golf idea. I might post it in #game-suggestions just to gauge community want :)
๐ดโโ ๏ธ
There's going to be an economy yes, but there are plenty of people willing to help for free as well it seems. So money is not the end goal for a lot of people. It's the joy of the game itself.
That's all I got. Arrrrr ๐ดโโ ๏ธ
LOL
Yeah I'm just wondering what would differentiate an end game char from an early char apart from their thingies, and why you'd want to progress towards an end game char.
ยฎ๏ธ
I think there might be multiple 'progression' elements to the game ... we have the bars to fill to gain levels in the skills and activities we do ... the level of romance/friendship with the npcs could be another target to aim for and of course how far along you get with the mystery behind the humans
I hate the concept of "endgame" in an MMO, which by design has no end.
Big same.
To me endgame has been when I stop playing ๐
To me end game is when I lose my job and let my grades slip because it requires my full attention
That's fair, I haven't hit an endgame in an mmo yet so I am a bit aloof here, though I am playing FFXIV recently
i signed up last year ago but now im not sure anymore
I go into any game wanting to see what it's go for me to discover. Being railroaded into grinding toward some arbitrary goal that isn't even mine is a big turn off.
For example in wow .. I level a character to max level .. then log in the next one and level that .. while levelling the characters I build their professions and use the AH to make money .. then the other 6-9 months were spent playing other games
One day, an algorithm crunching potential solutions to reversing entropy creates a seed value that, when fed into Einar's relationship processing matrix, selects you as the human he will destroy today. That is the endgame.
To be fair WoWโs endgame, kind of, is when the game starts, for many. At least it was for me, leveling was just in the way of the gameplay xD
I've been playing lotro for many years and I have never hit the level cap because I have fun just doing all the things they've worked hard to put into the game. I'm nowhere near finding all of it either, so level cap means nothing to me.
I know thats why I would never have played it if it wasn't for my boyfriend at the time 
Happy Timezone pals!
TLDR: Endgame is a lie!
Or it's that the human spirit, taken to it's ultimate conclusion, is not to actually achieve anything
Hi Berry โค๏ธ
Hiya Maya ^^ โค๏ธ
With Palia .. endgame may be just waiting for the next adventure to drop if you have done everything you want in the current adventure .. but hopefully the adventures are dropped at the right pace to keep the flow working. [S6] BuscoBear โ 06/05/2021 Just because one story ends doesn't mean its all over. We'll start a new chapter together.
Link to end game question back in June : #โโold-team-answers-pre-alpha message
Perhaps to simply not be forced to.
Right now my endgame is frantically checking my email every 30 minutes hoping for an email lol
๐ง โ๏ธ
If the email sending cycle is reliant on a computer to be turned on - we might have to wait until someone turns it on to start todays email sending cycle ๐คทโโ๏ธ - thought based on no weekend mails
In the past email batches were sent out hourly at the exact same minute past the hour every hour. So there's no need to check more frequently than once per hour :)
Completionist be like where next part Iโm done already after 2 days of being open to the public
This makes sense to me
Looking forward to alpha invites. Have need waiting patiently
@cloud horizon I know. It was like 8 minutes past the hour or something mast time, but ya know, I'm eager lol
Last*
8๏ธโฃ
Is there an alpha scheduled sometime soon?
lol
Alpha invites were selected by yesterday and emails started to be sent from yesterday up till Tuesday .. but not on weekends
morning yall โค๏ธ
Morning Kandy ^^
So today and Monday?
today monday and tuesday - sorry Amelia said through Tuesday so includes Tuesday
And Tuesday, likely
They don't send them all out at once to avoid being marked as spam.
Great to see the Alpha hype is still alive and well in here! ๐
Not looking forward to the silence coming on Wednesday xD
Oh so there will be testing soon then, that's cool. Its gotta be really exciting/stressful to test out your vision of the game. I'm a writer, so any time I share work with others I get a bit of that feeling haha
There will not be any silence ๐ not if I can help it
Don't worry Berry, we will still be here.
as long as you signed up before yesterday you're good
I imagine it's a lot of sipping noises and the odd ''So, lovely day eh?'' every 20 minutes, then maybe a door creaking as the dog walks in.
Pretty accurate, I named it Library Mode xD
I signed up when it was first announced, but I'm not stressin'. Palia will come whenever it comes
there are days like that rofl ... the worst so far was Halloween night .. it was deaddddd so deadddd that my 3 hour posts were almost back to back
People waiting for those emails be like 
Are you saying you were ghosted?
that and reported for spamming 
๐ป
haha, spamming...Xrystal, please stop posting every 3 hours...it's getting out of hand
For the lurkers out there and any newcomers. Welcome to Palia : Lost. Nai'o has been given the task of directing you through the maze of channels to get you to Palia : The Game. Go to #โโgame-faqs and turn left at #โโold-team-answers-alpha, then right at #๐ โofficial-art and around the roundabout at #โโold-team-answers-pre-alpha. You can take the short cut through the pinned documents by Rin and Vlad. You should be nearing the gates to Palia when you see the pre-alpha blog in #๐ขโpalia-news. Once there, all you need to do is wait ( don't forget to sign up if you want to try your chance to get in one of the future test phases ). But you'll be in good company. Again, welcome and we hope you enjoy your wait with us.
Oh trust me. I totally understand it. When I got my email for the first wave it was just so unexpected I thought it was a mistake. Then I watched the :08 group, which was considerably longer wait for theirs. Now there's almost 10000 people getting one... lot's of activity! I hope things turn out favorably for you!
Really hoping to get in. This game seems unique and interesting and gaming (for me) is stale right now lol
Hope everyone is well!
hail!
What have you been trying to enjoy?
My estimate is we have roughly a 13% chance of getting an invite. If the 10k alpha size is true.
@cloud horizon I hope so! I applied for the pre-alpha. A couple weeks ago I did the survey again just in case, then saw the announcement. So I'm stoked. I love testing phases!
I played dying light 2. Game play was great, but the transitions in the story were very tilting lol
I did my math wrong, it is a 7% chance.
As opposed to the 1.7% chance people had of a Pre-Alpha invite.
welcome to the server Trevor
Just scroll up a bit and you will see my expanded welcome message with some useful links to help you find info about the game
Ahh! you scared me. very spoopy.
you should be fine as your name would have been amongst the list they worked on before
ohOH i got a mail!
Congrats ๐
Probably spam
but its not from palia
retracted congrats
...
They have said that any sign ups between when they first released the form (Back in June of 2021) and this past Tuesday (2/8/22) have a chance of receiving an invite for this phase of testing. If you signed up after the cut-off you are still eligible for the following phases, just not this one.
The pinned post reiterates this and has other info too along with their post in #๐ขโpalia-news
Yep I definitely missed the cutoff
just think the game will be even better when you get in ๐
I only found out about the game when I put my interest in
UPDATE: My cat tried to eat my foot
As in when I join the discord
And .. just because you don't get in you don't get any insight .. if its anything like pre-alpha there will be plenty of dev info being posted for those that don't get into see it first hand
Weird they usually start with nose and ears, as they are softer.
Palia Discord is the Pre-Pre-Alpha, so you're already in as far as we're concerned!
I did see the trailer that was posted earlyer it looks amazing
Palia Discord Chat = Palia Communication Network , #๐จโold-palia-fan-art challenges = Palia Community Play Together .. all we need is the skilling up and walking in the world for it to be complete
Fern nooooo
We now know the name of Dadruu's cat.
And .. if you set up the images in a wallpaper cycle on your PC .. woot .. it will seem like you are in game
- Posted an image in #๐จโold-palia-fan-art
It was like 30 seconds before his automatic feeder activated, so he was letting me know he's onto the timing now
You should get those buttons that say words, so then they can communicate with actual words and not just fang and claw.
yeah I wish we had had those with our cats when they were here .. they were vocal enough with their miaows .. I can only imagine the conversations we would have had with actual word button training
mowe
I learned my cat's different meows, so we understood each other. She even had ones for each person of the family.
๐ฑ
my automatic feeder seems to have malfunctioned, need to go make my own food 
She didn't understand the concept of phones or voice chat though. When ever I was talking to someone who wasn't in the room she would just keep calling my name...
Pre alpha wave one had like a .002% chance
Ohhh thats really cool! My cat and i never really talk though, she was quiet so I learned the non verbal stuff and I try to replicate it
As long as you react correctly to her movements .. she's trained you well
I am only but a humble servant to my quen
good morning everyone
Rusty 
amEXCITE for palia development so far ๐

I wonder if flying over smoke stacks will give extra height on the glider??
Everyone will route their path past the smithy's :D
i wouldnt think so lol
I wanna just be a kid in a palia so einar can throw me with a glider on
smoke stacks dont produce enough updraft
on the other hand i wonder if they will have natural updrafts while gliding to glide longer ๐
get out of here with all that science nonsense
ok bye bye have a good time
no I didn't mean it! 
too late im gone
A seasonal event featuring a gliding minigame where you have to glide to teach a flock of geese to fly before winter arrives. The more people who participate, the more geese fly south at the end of the event. The prizes are fall season recipes, decor, and rare geese animals for your farm
Do you have to fly all the way south with them?
hopefully not canadian geese, those things are the spawn of the devil
How do you tell them "tutorial is over, continue on your own"? :D
Ooo a gliding minigame...
Sounds like the movie "Fly away home"
It is a spectacle when they practice before the real migration. So much honking and sometimes near misses as two groups fly in opposite directions
Canada does not exist in Palia, so you'd only get Palian geese
Shhhh don't reveal my movie watchlist
ok on that note, hopefully PALIAN geese arent as evil as canadian geese ๐
Don't worry. The worst geese in video games are reserved for Untitled goose game
sorry this park bench is occupied HONK
When did you sign up Netmad ?
๐ฎ lol arcane pretty much
Once I was feeding ducks from a low bridge, I had my toes hanging over the edge. I didn't see the goose coming up from under the bridge, and he bit my foot. I was lucky I was wearing steel toed boots, and his beak cut through the leather entirely, and left with part of my boot.
I think Iโm late. I just signed up now lol
you never signed up before Tophi ?
I did but I guess they never got it
Um.... I'm scared of geese now.
if you did, and you filled in the survey .. then they got it .. don't forget not everyone will get selected
Be aware, but do not be afraid.
They're meanies
Yeah I understand.
fear leads to anger
I like geese, never had any bad experiences with them
More animals smell fear, and they prey on those who smell of it.
Til geese are predators
I'm not afraid. I dislike them because they are meanies
Geese have anger issues
oddball quoting biblically accurate angels today
I tell them to their faces, so it's not shady.
Time to get the natural predator of the geese ..... A hunting cat
do you think geese are angels
- incomprehensible to humans
- terrifying
- can and will kill you
- too many eyes
I canโt remember if I did a survey lol
it was very small .. just something about games you like
What is the email confirmation?
You forgot the other thing.
- Names end with El or iel or er
There is no email confirmation
There isn't one
cinna teach me ffxiv
Goodsiel is the evolution of Destiel
XD
I don't know how to ffxiv, but I can teach you how to dougie 
I understood part of that ๐
Now Iโll never know lol
oh i thought u did just cause that was an ffxiv server from the 2 seconds i hopped in there
you can always send a message to Amelia and she can check if your email is amongst the list they have collected so far
oh hey Rin
Iโd hate to bother her about it blah
FF14 was fun, but I stopped playing because I had no one to play with.
Well cross your fingers and know that they should have it for next time if you're not picked this time
I wanted to play FFXIV but it's not supported in my country :')
What country?
When you say not supported, do you just mean localization, or can you literally not join?
Okay sounds good thanks, Xrystal.
Some games are not supported/available in some countries.
Let's move this to the other games chat before we summon duck or turtle
๐ข
what to play while waiting
have a look in #๐ฎโother-games for inspiration .. lots of discussion on games people play and on sale at one point or another
We've already played Duck, Duck, Goose.
DuckTales is also a good game
true almost forgot about it
Hey Palians! I have quick question. I singed up for pre-alpha tests long time ago but didnt get a chance to test it out, now, so alpha are comming soon, do i have to sign up again or im still on the list?
your still in the list
Thank You Sir!
you need only to sign up once as long as you signed up a bit before this test ๐
hello! and oof hope i get picked
we all do ๐
So if Palia had a McDonald's....
What would be the mascot in your opinion?
Personally I really want a Chapaa in adorable clown getup
that would be too adorable to make art of

Xrystal are you an AI?
Did the alpha invites already go out?
have the invites been sent out to more people yet?
umm I did so PreAlpha a long time ago, then when alpha happened I did it again not knowing I didn't have to. I think I did it ytd or the night before?
Please restate that question
o_O
Well if you signed up for Pre-Alpha you are fine
Oooh! okay thank yewwww

Sleep is for the wee woo wee woo
Sleep is for this Saturday and Sunday, when no invites will be issued

...morning, folks

seriously though ... I sleep for between 4 and 7 hours a night .. usually at somepoint between 2am and 6am UK time. ๐
Buenas mornings my friends

rofl .. some have already got in .. but invites going out on work days through Tuesday
Huh
If I donโt get in I will probably commit the heinous crime of being upset
hmm
Locust swarm detected, close the gates. ^^
does palia search employes? im good at serving coffee and cookies
Security measure since previous alpha.
for the best
Future Palia Starbucks\
Look on their website as they advertise jobs .. coffee and cookie service I don't think is there though 
Maybe we can open a Paliabucks in game
i dont think they will announce when the wave of e-mails have been sent out
๐
chuupa with double mermaid tail
They send a post after they have all been sent though
oh ya that i would imagine
Ah that's reassuring to know ^^
I'm still crying from not seen Palia invitation on my mail 
Same Donna same ๐ค
Stlll a few days
Iโm happy even if I donโt get it because it means someone who deserved it more than me got mine
Trying to wait patiently though ๐ค
toodles yall have a good day/night, gotta study ๐๐ผ
And the autosend email may not be active out of work hours if its working on one of their home computers at the moment
It's like, not even two days have passed and it feels like a whole month
whereas its been 8 months for me and feels like weeks ๐
im done, i've been mispronouncing this furball's name wrong the entire time, sacrifice me to the gods
chapaa + chuu = chuupa . you be fine
did someone say CHALUPA?

no mail 
OMG CHACO BELL
Hand me your patience
YAS, someone make this in Paliaaaaaaa
Chuupa Bell
anyone here feel like singing christmas songs?
Its alot easier if you imagine chatting on here as the chat from in Palia .. and the art challenges in #๐จโold-palia-fan-art as the community element .. skilling up ? Hmm .. I suppose that is my art improving and my friend list is growing 
No, my wallet still hasn't recovered from christmas e.e the horror
Want a plane that loops the loop!
Me, I want a Chuu-la-hoop!
That sounds very nice! Looks like you are having fun ๐ I'm more into Roleplaying, that's why I can't wait to play Palia and meet another amazing people to rp
We can hardly stand the wait! Please Alpha don't be late!
jingle bells jingle bells jingle all the way
Chaapa tails, chaapa tails, chaapas all around,
In your garden, in your boot, or digging underground!
now someone needs to draw a baby chaapa poking its head out of a boot.
that works :V
However, 3 hours before the announcement I was hyped ... Whoa started posting clues that something was coming .. rofl
god why this avatar so cute
chapaa are all cute
They had a chapaa in a box one but that was relegated to the winter collection and removed
Whoa is pure evil
Why?
The clues, the very very important thing that was actually a lie... That's EVIL!!
Cause of the confusing Wordle posts?
what is a group of chapaas called?
The Chuusen
I like this one ๐
I hear Ralph saying "I Chuu chuu chuuse you."
A murder? ๐ฑ
^i was almost gonna type that ๐
a tip of chapaa ? rofl rubbish tip 
business of chapaas
school of chapaa
oooh a tip
A group of pigs is a Drove, a group of swine is a sounder, a group of boars is a singular? How can a group be a singular, seriously who comes up with this stuff?
Good morning friends. Hope many of the alpha emails found you 
A group of Beavers is a Colony.
Officially I vote for a Scurry of Chaapa
Scurry sounds good too
Anyone familair with a new gane deceloping and discord called TitanReach?
Scurry is squirrels, Nursery if Racoons.
Still waiting! I think my email provider is delaying my inbox. That must be it ๐
me too
nah the owls took it to those kids going to Hogwarts
Noooo 
i think there some hackers that gonna catch my palia invite
Hackers aiming for a database email leak to get Palia invites
long time no see White Mountain
oh sorry , Montblanc 
Pal-ia 
A problem, or so Iโve been told
Have there already sended out the keys?
Some, invites will be rolled out until Tuesday
omg i like this ahhaha
Its a magical place.
so tuesday there do another one
thx
No theyโre sending them out likely every hour until Tuesday
Today, Monday and Tuesday
ooh oke!
Not during the weekend.
So theyโre sending out invites right now, break over the weekend and then again Monday Tuesday
May the cosmic overlords be ever in your favor!
Under NDA?
Of course
Yeah itโll be under NDA
Okรฉ!
what's NDA?
Non disclosure agreement. You cant talk about the game
Non Disclosure Agreement, means people who partake canโt talk about it with others who are not partaking

Non Disclosure Agreement - Loose Lips Sink Ships didn't have the same ring to it
I signed the LLSS
oooh! took me a while to put those two together my bad ๐คฃ
thanks
Itโs hard to keep an NDA when you have a personality split
Tell yourself immediately

The trick is to have no friends! I'm great at this! ๐
Taps hourglass. Still waiting!
LIAR! I am your friend!
Called out!
FOILED AGAIN!
rip
Here I go again ruining peoples plans
Don't worry Berry, I am your friend
There goes your public image as a loner ๐
Yall be playing Palia and choosing the loner path, I pray for yew

Yes, of course!
Wonderful! Iโll put in a pre-order for Cherry and apricot marmalades!

As much as you can stand! โค๏ธ
Oh no my brethren!

Strawberry is great, even if itโs not a berry
If Maya is going for jam I should start taking baking classes for bread then
But I like basic tho!
So heckinโ ready for Palia
I have an old 80's Strawberry Shortcake doll on my shelf cause she's the cutest! RESPECT
Awww
She's one of my favourite things โค๏ธ
I have one reason I don't say that yet, it's coz I can't hold on to that hype until 2024. Must save all the hype for later ๐ฅฒ
dang the memories
She still smells a little bit!
Oh hey, you're also here!
Hiiii
I want to smell like strawberries!
Who doesn't!
convert all your products to strawberry scented.... I'm stuck with watermellon atm
Ill freely concerns that strawberries smell better than blackberries!
Half my room smells like vanilla cookies
Hahahaha
those scents usually make me crave for creamy desserts. ๐ญ
Alright. Time to finally get out of bed. This means moving grunpy sleeping cats 
Wish me luck!
GRUMPO SLEEPING FLOOFS
if only im not worried about my electric bill, i'd be baking often too. I wanna make custard deserts
Custard desserts are delicious

It's currently in the vicinity of the Joyce Kilmer Service Area on the New Jersey Turnpike in East Brunswick.
when palia
Do keys go out to laptop users?
Eyyy there's my invite
Aww
Testing is on PC only at the moment .. whether laptops are included as PC I don't know
Probably are so long as they aren't Mac?
thats what I was wondering
Are invites still showing up at the :21 timestamp this round?
Since you only have to provide your e-mail when signing up for testing and not your platform, you should at least get a mail if you're selected
Whoo!
Mine went to junk mail so make sure you're checking there
Yep, looks like a wave are going out now
I think there's no possible way for them to tell a laptop pc from a desktop pc
mine was :19
๐ฅณ๐ฅณ๐ฅณ
YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I got mine too!
grats to all those that got in so far and good luck to all those that signed up before yesterday
:19!
Yasssss
19 baby!
Oh nice, this time account creation automates the Discord role assignment
Ohhhh pick meeeeee ๐
@glad egret can you edit channel perms or do I need to dm a purple name about that

Wait lemme dm youuu
Does anyone know - if I submitted my mail twice, does it delete my first or my second entry?
Hihi
not as far as I know if your name was in their list day before yesterday it was amongst the selection they used to pick testers
Oh by her we go
i will be immeasurably sad if i donโt get an email ๐ญ
Someday my prince will come
Someday we'll meet again
As a reminder to the people who only signed up from yesterday, you are likely not in this test phase as per the pinned post.
ah so the invites are not chronological, good to know 
And away to his castle, we'll go
To be happy forever, I know
I think it was a month ago, maybe more, that I signed up. Crossing fingers.
are the invites still going out
today, monday and tuesday still to go
hope i get in
frantic email checking
Got mine. But I knew I would get one.
the emails tend to go into your promotions folder if you use gmail
when did you sign up ?
You are a pre-alpha tester, all pre's are going to be in Alpha
Yus
I will use the power of cookies to get the email!!!
Rols a nat 1
You have been devoured by a cookie
It was oatmeal raisin.
dont remember but was a while ago
Joke's on you, I like raisin
No joke, so do I
Sh- at least i can make a save rol? ๐ฅบ
What's your resistance to being eaten?
I've been away for a few days! did I read that alpha is starting? I will give you a kidney, or a puppy, or something to let me in! lol.
I want a puppies kidney
I can make that happen. I know a guy.
as long as you signed up before the cut off point you're in the lap of the selection machine
good luck ๐ค
9, but I have the milkshake of truth and a hot sword with cooking III
Nice.. I signed up a month or two ago I think.
I will now pray to Palia each night.
hides
what email is the it under when it comes
I want a kidneys puppy
Okay, roll one d7 with a plus or minus 3/5ths
Do you have to account for cover?
nope not lucky yet
half cover or total cover?
Good point. @celest maple , I forgot to mention. You're totally covered in cookies.
I love cookies

Ah, it's sooner than my logical prediction indicated
When did you sign up ? was it before the cut off time mentioned in the pinned post from Amelia ?
Hi
Welp, I'm going to Arby's.
I signed up for the pre-alpha (didn't get in obvs) - does that signup count for this alpha still?
ye
yes you're fine
Now you must wait for the Claw
been waiting for the claw all my life
What is claw?
The Claw has chosen!
So?

bubble bubble toil and ARBY'S
You have evolved into a creature of pure cookie. Enjoy your new, enlightened existence.
that is still cute a day later ...
Man, the fake out when I got an email from Society6
I'M THE COOKIE MONSTER
it's kinda hard to get out of lurk mode once you get used to it
but here we go, all exams are done, it's time for Palia now 
I got an email from Duplicity7, is that it?

What is The Claw?
The claw machine from toy story
the claw is DR CLAW
The claw decides who will go and who will stay.

Another reference : The Claw is a machine that grabs toys inside it

im checking all of my emails cuz i forgot which one i signed up with
Email check, check your inboxes
Check spam as well
Do we know when they will end so we know when to stop looking? lol ๐
Tuesday is the last day they will send invites this phase
Neat, thanks. ๐ Not that I don't check my email every day, buuut...
sounds like ima have my email open a lot this week
When did you sign up Relleka ?
a whiiiile ago
ah good so before cut off day ๐
when did i first join the server
Was way back in October lol
cuz thats when i did lol
30th August was your first post .. so should be good
๐
I think mine was early July.
Anyone got an invite?
For the lurkers out there and any newcomers. Welcome to Palia : The Hunt. Tau is prancing about in excitement waiting to meet all of you in Palia: The Game but Hassian wants you to be prepared.. so he has sent Tau to hunt down all the useful information in the various channels. #โโgame-faqs, #โโold-team-answers-alpha and #๐ โofficial-art has plenty of information to get you started with #โโold-team-answers-pre-alpha containing tons of information but in a totally unstructured form, it may take some time to find what you want in there, but the information is there. Hassian, in the mean time has popped over to the palia website to grab the prealpha https://bit.ly/paliablog ๐ there. Lots of game play details there. To ensure you get a chance to see them ahead of time sign up for testing and keep an eye on the #๐ขโpalia-news channel for more details. If you are really lucky, maybe, just maybe you will get to pet Tau. Again, welcome, we hope you enjoy waiting with us
Was it first-come first-served or is it solely based on the survey answers?
random
so far I've only seen some pre-alpha folk get theirs
Random but based on answers or simply random? O:
I had signed up for a test a while back (didn't get in sadly) but will I need to resubmit or do they just randomly pull from all the responses ever?
as far as I know simply random - but maybe the answers helped slim the 118k+ names to a comfortable 10k+
Assuming Renzo's number post yesterday was somewhat accurate
no need to signup again if you have already
Hello Palians
Hello Ryanide!
I just fought a fierce battle with auto correct and almost perished, but I persevered and emerged victorious!
What email does it come from?
Add it to your contacts so the message wont accidentally be flagged as spam.
just got an email notification and got excited then i noticed it was a newegg ad
I donโt think I have it.
None for you. ๐ฆ
If using Gmail, check promotions inbox
Maybe I never did it.
I'm like 90% sure I used my Yahoo email, but I still check my Gmail too.
they dont send confirmations for signing up
I wish they did. I did it awhile back before pre alpha
We gonna keep guard here
Well, welcome to Arby's. You have become the meats.
Tophi, if you're really not sure message Amelia ๐ she won't mind .. it may take a while to wade through the messages ๐
Yeah I did lol Iโll wait and let yโall know
I'm doing that right now! 
i have the eyes of a friggin hawk rn homie
Yeah lol
Well there's still time until Tuesday
tru but i am an impatient man
Gotta have faith in the first place to lose it! ๐
I SAID inhales BELIEVE
Iโm hoping I get in as well. ๐ if not then Iโll wait for whateverโs next.
Oh hi earthmage!
CHAIR !!!! 
Xrystal! Did u get in?
not at the moment but still only the second day .. I've waited 8 months .. a few more days won't be a problem 
AH
Aye! Invites won't be sent in the weekend right?
Lol
not on the weekends no
ODIIIN
MY NITRO IS GONE
hiyas Odin 
I've got nowt but I am a lurker ๐
Noppy nope!
maybe just the pre-alphas getting their alpha emails at the moment ... based on those that have announced getting their emails
Might be.
Aye. Haven't seen any new ones just yet.
I have a lot of spam about valentines day though ๐
That's something!
Nothing bad about being a lurker
I lurk mainly too
I've cleared my email's and await until then
lurkers give me something to do ๐ 
Lurkers are the lifeblood of any server
Im also waiting to find out if I've got a new job irl soo.. I'm super impatience at the moment.
Congratulations! I've got an interview for a new position soon as well.
Been waiting a week and a half 
Oh I thought for sure you said you got a new job
I'm thinking that some people won't announce it because they are lurkers in the server, and/or do not want any weirdos to message them about being a tester (which I know all the regulars are very nice about, but there is always one person who takes things too far)
yeah maybe ๐
Now the congratulations just seems preemptive
can it be that this server was wiped once like all messages, cause i cant seem to find my old messages
Not yet but hoooopefully
I BELIEVE
Now I'll have to personally tell you if I do or dont 
nope, not since they were started on 3rd June
You better
I can see your messages from july last year
weird then ill restart my dc
it could be the search system surprised to see you and not ready for your request 
Xrystal, did ya get your email yet?
nope not yet you ?
lmao
Yeah but I wanna make sure the coolest people are in, too!
Damn then it has to be me... ๐
Or wait gambit, were you in the previous pre alpha too?
I don't know
Oh
Im so happy we are all waiting in our emails together ๐
We'll keep guard here anyways ๐
Anyway it'll be nice when we can play Pre-alpha together
psssst Alpha ... Alpha
lol
ODIN!!!
Major Alpha =P
HOW'S IT GOIN
Oh, I am late then. Why do I have a pre-alpha role then?
My guess is they haven't made a new one for this round haha
rofl .. maybe because you were in Pre Alpha last year ? hmm hmm
yeah they have 
You should have both roles hm
Oop! Fair
GOOD!!! Iโve just been vibin!!! HOW ARE YOU??
Time to collect tester roles like that one guy collects all the colored tags
only if he processes it
Agh I wanna get the role so bad but at least its filled with some cool cats
Makes sense
Great! Gotta work on valentines day which.. Isn't that great but otherwise I'm good!
I'm waiting to get to my PC to set up.
Tbf Monday is the worst day for Valentines ๐ฆ
Are emails going out in waves like in the past?
yes .. over several work days
I think so, yeah. From now until Tuesday, I think. No weekends either, I think.
Agreed. My partner is coming over too which sucks even more knowing i gotta work
wait so i missed testing again
when did you sign up ?
There's still plenty time for emails to hit your inbox, don't give up so easily
Ah that sucks, I hope your valentines is good!
i thought the day after last time but i was abloe to sign up again just now so
You too little-rock
I hope I see a post from Wippit/Tiger on Valentine's Day
As long as you have cake together afterwards! That's what my partner and I are doing, not that he knows yet. ๐คซ
it lets you sign up multiple times I think ( not tried ) do you remember a little survey form ?
you didnt have to sign up twice. once you signed up once you are eligible
That's a great idea. We're going out to eat on Tuesday tho so we'll be okay haha
We're waiting til next month to go for a dinner because we're living the poor life this month. But I hope you have some lovely food, almost nothing better than good food!
As a reminder - those that signed up within the last 2 days may not be in the list for selection this time around - Linked to Pinned Post : #๐ฌโpalia-discussions message
Objectively true. Hope you guys have a great time as well!
Ayo watch us all get invites at the same time
Happened to the 49ers and the Ochos
if i dont get in at least i can play lost ark in the meantime
Prepare for the no, hope for the yes I guess!
49ers gang
i been hoping for an alpha test since i joined here ๐
Aha me too. It's a nice in to maybe start bug testing games professionally as well oop
Would be good experience
the only payable job im good for is probably game testing ๐
Play to your strengths!
๐ฆ ๐ฆ ๐ฆ
I've beta tested games before but most I've played have been pretty polished!
but im ok doing it free too LOL because you help as well
I wanna be a bug squasher haha
Good morning
Gm liddy!!
Ive got my excel sheet ready if Im a tester if not, I still have it ready for my predictions
Tested a few. Some were real ...I don't want to say train wrecks, but they were ...suffering from a few issues.
Good evening for me! ๐
get your mjolnir ready to squishy dem bugs Odin
Mjรธlner isnt mine but I've got my trusty spear and crows
I've been trying to avoid learning too much about the game to be fair, so that I'm not biased or have formed opinions about things - I dont want to go in to it having preconcieved expectations of things. I've been mostly following through youtube content ๐
Go go Odin =D
ahhh Huugin and Muugin, how are they doing?
i only know the crows names because of valheim hahaha
Hello, I am new. Just filled out the form after I saw the tweet ๐
Thats smart, honestly Ive been on the server since the beginning about and I still know jack about the game lol.
As trusty as ever. They fly around from time to time
What YouTube content? There is very minimal info out lol
I follow a specifc youtuber who does videos on the Q&As and stuff ๐
Ohh that makes sense
Just whats posted on here, but I like to listen to it while I play other games lol
i just want a simple life, fish, chop trees, fish some more, pay a cook to cook for me LUL
That's why I love Animal Crossing 
I could be that cook. Cooking is literally all I wanna do hahaha
Otter was about to throw down
Dream team from different neighborhoods
Have the Alpha invites already gone out?
^basically minecraft
And the recent AC has actually been amazing for the Base Building genre
...grow some alfalfa for the rabbits.
i wonder if we can MASTER some skills but other skills can get MAX but not MASTER level. thats an interesting thought
welcome RawX. If you only signed up after the twitter post you may have missed the running for this test phase, but there will be more in the future. Link to pinned post from Amelia : #๐ฌโpalia-discussions message
I hope so. I'd like to be able to be a renowned cook but not necessarily a renowned.. Anything else
only yesterdays batch .. still have todays, mondays and tuesdays
Honestly it was a game-changer for the series too, so much to build on. Looking back now, I have no idea how I managed to play Wild Word, feels like it had nothing to it now ๐
When did you sign up ?
same tbh
๐ค๐ป fingers crossed I get an invite! Iโve been signed up for a while I think.
anywho yuh, hi everyone 
On the day they announced the game ๐
Any pre alphaers struggling to see the alpha channels?
Welcome to the new Pals who just signed up!!! Even though testers were chosen prior to yesterdays announcement, we are happy you are here and look forward to hopefully seeing you in future testing!!
And the recent 2.0 update, with all those crazy detailed food models ๐ฅ ๐ฑ Settin' the gold bar!
When am I NOT ready to throw down tbh
I have them. you got your email?
what happens if i signed in twice ? ๐ณ
THIS IS A THROWDOWN (โฏยฐโกยฐ๏ผโฏ๏ธต โปโโป
Yeah but when I hit the link to join the alpha channels it glitches out
Very true
if your first one got through before great ๐
You don't have the role liddy
message amelia/send a ticket!
Wait why donโt I have the role o.o
Wait there are alpha channels already?

Nuuuuu
i mean i hope it did ๐
Wait there's an alpha?

So many people getting keys, I'm so jealous ;-;
yes, but you have to receive the invitation email and follow instructions to get the role to see them.
I said I would update. I did sign up. I just waiting to see if I was part of the Alpha email list like everyone else.
I keep getting spam emails from robinhood and its gibing me a heart attack each time
(Insert massive sadface here) ๐ฆ
Did that threw me an error when I submitted. I'll ping Amelia ^_^ thanks
Iโll message Amelia and see whatโs up
they'll be plenty of more tests ๐ some of us have been waiting for 8 months for our chance ๐
๐ค ๐ซ
Same
You all deserve in
Many moons
@merry socket , did you sign up a new account? Remake, rather.
signed up for the tests the day palia was announced ๐ฉ ๐ prayer circle for all of us haha
I hope I see you all in game too! I love my pre-alpha pals but want more play buds!
if you're that worried, send a message to Amelia and give her time to check the signup list for your name, it could take a while.
It's always fun to see new people come in. I was in wave 1 and we were so few
Amelia is out for another hour, fyi
You could get all of us in a single channel...
W00t
Its fine if i just dm her/him (idk)?
yeah she reads em
Yes she answered me not too long ago
yes she doesn't mind getting messaged, just don't expect a fast reply if she's busy with other stuff
Just be patient for her to respond, she is a busy lady.
@novel bobcat I just gotta say I love that you are on asprite with a profile image as detailed as yours
Like 20 minutes ago she responded to me
Some say she lurks in this very channel
Waiting to blow it up with another announcement
I really like the big influx of people
Don't just dm her to ask of you got in. Wait until Tuesday for the emails to finish
The hype for palia grows daily
she has even been known to speak in this channel 
As a lurker, has there been a big influx? Not paid too much attention to numbers
No it's Whoa that lurks... that one is a crafty one
ahhaha
If you say her name three times in the mirror, you'd look like an idiot~ oooooh
Nah Lies, it was just echos of palias dream
Whoa the riddler
๐ป
DM to see if you got in, bad. DM to see if you are at least on the list for a chance to be picked, okay. I think...
Whoa is an enigma. one that i will valiantly defeat in battle some day
So just to check, are they doing one big email bunch out every day, or are they doing them in small batches? Is there any point to checking like through the day or is there a time they send the emails?
Really patience for all the invites to go out is best
i am an enigma. a kaenigma-tic
probably hourly like last time so as not to cause mailing issues
It seems like they are trickling in? idk tho
I'm a... * look up at name * Oh, umm, nevermind.
I would just check the email as often as you usually do and before you go to bed for that one last check
Only really check them when I'm expecting something to be honest, or if I get a notifcation usually. ๐
Not able to look at my phone when I'm at work so its like.. ๐ Tense.
in that case .. check when you get the chance but don't worry if you miss an hour or three ๐
They're sending a loooooot of emails, so it's gonna take a while
Yup
im technically not permitted to use my phone either but i do anyway cuz nobody comes in here
Me too sometimes ๐คซ
Gotta sneak a catch on PokeGo every now and again :x
I'm chillin in my office on my couch 
you guys dont do homeoffice ?
i just check discord and realize nobody is online and then let the loneliness set in
It's the 'technically' that matters haha
Nah, no home office here
I am chilling in my office 5 minutes from home
Tough to work as a barista from home sadly
I work from home, so you guys are the only contact I really have with the outside world...
i wish i could work from home
then i'd at least have my cat to keep me company
๐ฑ
@chilly crater is that old squirrel model from wow with sad cat face on your profile pic? ๐
sorry to interrupt the chat guys, but does anyone know if they finished with the new invites or not ๐
not yet .. have till end of day Tuesday
PST
Then I still have hope...
Invites have only just begun, still lots of hope
xD
Amelia will likely post an announcement after the last batch has gone out
๐ค
The tabletop I helped my company build is starting it's testing today... so excited
It is hahaa
dam that was the worst 30 minutes of my diabetic life 3rd day in a row
D:
Not a squirrel, a groundhog/prairie dog. no tail.
@pallid igloo hi sorry could you dm me again?
i saw something appear that Im unsure is a mistake or not
T-table top? would it perhaps be a cool one?
I can only hope
or @narrow narwhal or @sharp obsidian could one of u DM me pls LOL
It's not for me to decide. I made two games. One is high fantasy, the other spacefaring adventure...
Are pre-alpha testers automatically in this alpha or no?
yeps
ive been waiting for the next test so the wife and daughter can join me, any relative time when the next one might be?
Yupp
If you signed up a while back the invites for alpha started yesterday
Are your Wife and Daughter also signed up?
Invites are based on emails so if you share an email address it may be only one of you in
I hope I will enter. 3:
hey palia forgot to send me an email
HELLO EVERYONE I LOVE ALL OF YOU
Praise umbasa for an email 
heavy breathing
At least my email is quieter than usual, with a lack of spam emails, It makes it so I'm not jumping to check it every 15 seconds.
