February in Achaea!

Addressed to: Everyone


February is here already, but before we get to the excitement of the new month, let us clear up some of the leftovers first.

* The LOGOSMAS LIST is now gone, any remaining candycanes can be traded in via the PROMO TRADEIN <candycaneID> command.

* Resolutions from now on will be claimable on the first day of each month.

* The Memento auctions will be held over this coming weekend, watchout Friday night for all the details. All items auctioned will later go on sale, so you'll be able to accrue and spend your mementos all year long.

With all of that wrapped up nice and neat, let's look forward to February!

Sound the fanfare, the Wheel of Fortune is returning!

Despite Agith'tai's tantrum when the wheel rewarded him with XP Loss last November, we've revamped and patched up old clickety clack and she's back again with another round of prizes!

Everyone will be able to head to the casino in New Thera to SPIN WHEEL for a daily free spin and a chance to win bonuses, boosts, and even some special prizes.

Tokens for spins can also be purchased via the website, then SPIN WHEEL TOKEN to try your luck with these premium spins.

Each token spin will also earn you a ticket in a raffle that we will be drawing at the end of February. We will draw two winners!
- First place will get to work with the Garden to create a new artefact (and they'll get to keep it).
- Second place will also get one of these artefacts, but they won't have a say in its creation.
- All non-winning tickets will then be refunded at 2 credits per ticket!

But I know you're all wondering, what's in the wheel prize pool this month?
