April Event

It's April and rabbits and hares are breeding like crazy! Looks like we have a fluffy plague on our hands, and we heard that they like to carve weird things in Ostrich Eggs with their ever-growing teeth. With this April Event, you mighty lions need to catch as many Fluffballs as possible, and collect those Carved Easter Eggs. There are two areas to unlock - one calls for your Bunny Catching skills, and other calls for your good heart.

All Eggs you collect will be useful to buy fancy stuff for yourself, but... You can donate collected eggs towards public good and see what else you can unlock!

Remember that April Event starts on April 1st 00:00 am LD Time and ends at 11:59 pm of April 30th, and all currency you had left will carry onto next year!

What's it about?
- Collect Carved Easter Eggs for currency OR donate them!
- Work together to unlock special areas, where you can use currency at OR enjoy new features!
- Explore to experience the Fluffball encounters!
- Find Lucky Feet to win Explore battles immediately!

Storyline!
Per your poll vote results, we're adding lore and storylines to Lioden! This is our first project like this ever so we hope you'll enjoy this beginner phase of Storylines.
This time, in April of 2017, I decided to shed a light on where the Carved Eggs come from, what is the Fluffball agenda and story behind Primordial Spring.

Mysterious Wenet has a banner that appears in EVENT area. She will invite you to a journey that lets you wear a special mask. Wearing it has pros and cons - while wearing it you won't be able to chase bunnies anymore - and might miss out on special hidden result of chasing fluffballs that is extremely rare!

- Questing is entirely optional. This is something we added on top of the usual event stuff - but it does bring you amazing things, including Egg Yolks and Carved Eggs.
- You can take a quest only once a day, but you can finish it any day.
- Wenet's quests are named, unique and will log in userlog so you're aware exactly where you're at in the storyline. They also are pretty Roleplayish :D
- Wenet will tell you what to do and wait for you until you're done with the quest.
- As you give her things, you might notice she likes to look pretty for you as you progress
- Wearing Wenet Mask is optional and can be turned off and on on Wenet page. It affects exploring event related encounters only. It will enable certain ones and turn off other ones.
- Rewards she gives include among other things Hare Points. You can spend them on her page.
- Once you complete the Storyline, you can go back every day and complete again some of the past quests in a way to get more Hare Points (other rewards are turned off then). Those quests are randomized and will change every rollover. You cannot abandon a quest.
- Estimated maximum Hare Point count for doing every quest every day of April is 85, including the special quest payout.
- Once Primordial Spring unlocks, Wenet will have an extra special quest for you that you can take no matter if you finished the Storyline or not.

Important Changes
We have adjusted the bar amounts needed to unlock the Primordial Spring down by a bit. The visual representation of the Spring has been changed this year as well.
We also believe this year it will be a bit easier to gather Carved Easter Eggs - and thus we moved Egg Yolk to tier 3 and made it cost 20 EE's. We hope this makes you guys more eager to donate the Eggs to open the special areas!

ToS has been updated: "Fair Usage Policy"
Any attempt to deliberately harm the game economy by any means may result in a removal of game assets and privileges, or a permanent account ban. This includes, but is not limited to, attempting to monopolise all available items of a single type and manipulating the current market price of assets (items, lions, currency) being sold by flooding the market with deliberately under- or overpriced assets.

We will not apply this new rule retroactively. This rule starts from today.

Just like year ago and a year before that and so on, we have been selecting a % of every GB purchase into charity pool. It is with great pride that we can give so much this year into a great cause that we support and love so much.

Taken from their page and donation tiers, with this donation IAPF will be able to replace and maintain their vehicles, purchase valuable communications equipment, buy fuel, pay for critical information, new socks/boots etc. We have never been more proud as a lion game run by 3 friends, to actually help and protect the real life counterparts of our game's contents.

Thank you everyone for purchasing GB and contributing to this cause!

Polycaudal Files caught up: Cub, Female, Teen Female. The rest have received a temporary file update so they display something while I still work on them.

Shad has added new tags to April and Misc, check them out as usual! :D

Next week, we will introduce a change to Clan Rotting system that will rot all food in clan hoards no matter if the owner logs in or not, to prevent "freezing" exploits.

APRIL'S FOOLS - What? We never do April Fools jokes. Who told you that? You might also watch out for Oasis on 1st for a new cool item!

April Event starts on April 1st at 00:00 am LDTime. March event will end on 31st 11:59 pm LDT. All currency is locked on your account and stored until next time!

Polls and dev notes
You guys have helped us decide that it's time to redo Zombie decors!
New poll LINK - We honestly need to tweak daily intake of Egg Yolks. We have some ideas, maybe you can help us pick something? Remember that the limit mentioned is per day. And that with 15 per account restriction is bypassed by funneling to feed 1 submale by multiple players, you WILL be breaking the rules.
If the last option is voted on most, we'll be observing community thoughts closely.
