Newzy Custom Design Contest!
Posted by JT_ on Oct 25, 2013 4:18 pm
Happy Danse Macabre, everyone! This is a report from Newzy, who finds himself absolutely fascinated with this time of the year. It turns out he wants to run another contest for research purposes and he needs your help! :)

Here's what he told us:


news_header_newzy.png


Like last year, this is a Custom Puma design contest. The theme is "Pumas that go BUMP in the Night" and what I am looking for are your interpretations of spooky, eerie, ghostly, ghastly and magical! THIS IS IMPORTANT RESEARCH!


Here are the rules:

1). You are limited to five (5) markings/evolutions combinations. You do not need to use all 5, but you cannot go above. (NOTE: Lion's Mane does not count for this limit.)

2). THESE ARE SECRET BALLOTS! You may not show them around or post on the forums! My research will not be successful if you share your experiments.

3). You may use any breed except Wushi (since it is Transformation-only).

4). You may use either gender.

5). Once you have uncovered the perfect spooooooooooky Puma that works for you, copy ALL of the important information down! I need everything!
• Breed
• Gender
• Basecolor
• Eyecolor
• Exact order of Markings and Evolutions, including the color/paradigm for each
• URL of the Puma Design from your Custom Demo picture

Once you have all of this important experiment data, you must send it to me (Newzy!) in account 21!

6). Only ONE entry per person! So make sure you are happy with your very first entry!



You have until November 3rd at 11:59 PM Puma Time to submit your entry (when Danse ends, entries are closed!). This contest is open to ALL users!

Once we have all the submissions ready to go, we will post the Puma images in a contest topic (and announce in the news). You will be asked to vote, secretly! This is for science!

Winners will be announced when the voting closes after we tally up all the votes (this date will be announced when we open the voting so you'll know for sure).


Ready, Set, Create!




If you are having trouble getting the URL of your Custom Demo picture, try this:
• Right click on the demo image and select "copy Image URL" or "copy Image Location" (it may also be located inside of Properties when you right click on the image).
• Paste the URL you copied into your Message to Newzy (#21)!


Danse Macabre 2013: October 24 - November 3
Posted by JT_ on Oct 24, 2013 12:00 am
You hear the call of the werewolf, the rustling of leaves... Pumpkins can be seen with glowing faces on every doorstep... There are Pumas wearing silly costumes, and trails of candy can be found all over the streets.

Do you even need to ask? Of course not; it's time for the Danse Macabre!


From October 24, 2013 until 11:59 PM Puma on November 3, 2013, Pumas will be celebrating one of their favorite holiday seasons. You are of course invited to participate as well! :)



Gifting Stump: A festive gifting stump is a must for any festival season. Use it to send gifts to friends and soon-to-be friends!

Knock on Profile Doors: Go knocking on user profiles-- instead of one evening of trick-or-treating, it's for the entire festival! WOOHOO! Click on user profiles once per hour to uncover all the goodies.

TE Shop Costume Trunks: As announced yesterday, our Costume Trunks have arrived! Dress your Pumas as Knights, Scarecrows, and Werewolves. These 2013 Costume Trunks will ONLY be available until 11:59 PM on November 3rd. After that they will be retired!

TONS of Festival Items: That's right, you had better take a good look at all the site shops! Most shops have brand new items, some of which will even be sticking around after the festival ends. Hope you have your wheelbarrow ready. :)

Random Events: Expect to see a couple of festive random events when surfing around on P3...

Corner Icons: A quick reminder of how corner icons work. If there is no icon-- the item will be sticking around after the festival as a normal item! If there is a Danse Macabre icon with NO year-- the item is only available during the festival, but should be back next year! If there is a Danse Macabre icon with "13" in the corner-- the item is ONLY available until November 3rd and will be retired at the end of this festival!

Retiring This Year: Some Danse items from 2010 will be retiring this year. If you see "First Released in 2010" in the item information, chances are it will be retired on November 3rd. The Masks and Eye Drops in the Costume Shop are NOT retiring however! :)

Announcements: Fun things are happening shortly, and we'll have announcements for you over the next couple of days! Woohoo!

Something isn't quite right... It would seem the Alphas are requesting a rather... umm... unusual dish.



Have tons of fun everyone! TIME FOR CANDY!
