April Event


rabbithunt.jpg

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!
- You can see how many eggs you have on the sidebar!
- The bars unlock tiers in the bunny shop as well as three different features in Egg Den!
- Bunny tunnels should let only females play, as males have their exp reset when retired into.

BAR 1 Fluffballs Caught
Tier 1 - items to buy
Tier 2 - more items to buy
Tier 3 - more items to buy + Bunny Tunnels

BAR 2 Easter eggs donated
Tier 0 - Warming up
Tier 1 - Ostrich Chick play
Tier 2 - NCL markings
Tier 3 - Primordial Spring - de-aging/aging main male by 2 years once per lifetime

2017 change:
- Insane amount of new decors!
- New NCL-exclusive markings:
Onyx Patch
Red Patch
Copal Patch
White Patch
Copal Marble
White Puma

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.


SEPARATION



IPAFdonation2017.jpg



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!


SEPARATION


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!


SEPARATION

Raffle Lioness


Congrats Kukui (#53395)! You have won the last raffle lady with Rainforest BG!
New lady with Simien Mountains BG is up for impressing in Special Lioness area in Explore or in NEWS section under News Post List!

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.

This is the best news post of the year so far! :0
So many great things, I don't know where to start! I love how you're adding lore to Lioden~ And the "fair usage policy" is awesome. I've been noticing a few users trying to take advantage of the market, so his reassurance is nice. <3
I'm very happy about tweaking the donation requirement for carved eggs. We'll see how it plays into the event this year :3

And I'm very proud to be apart of and contribute to a website that has an active role in helping to prevent poaching <3

I love Lioden! Keep it up ;3

I mentioned this in chat, but is there going to be some limit on feeding yolks to Lionesses? I understand the main draw is beefing up your male to make "stat monsters" but what stops people from making high power lionesses to essentially do that same thing happening now (make 15k lionesses to breed to 6-8k males)?

And honestly you can do with females at a larger scale than males. If you put her down to a VLF, you essentially can just "Breed and Feed" until she ends up pregnant, CRB/Yohimbe bark, rinse and repeat. Some VLFs take 100s of tries, so you could essentially feed her 100s of Yolks/Honeycombs in a given day (assuming you have the resources). I just think this needs to be taken into consideration as well, before it becomes a problem later. Unless there is a feeding limit for females? I've never really had to feed my girls more than once, but I haven't seen mention of limiting feeding to hungry lions.

It's just a though. Personally I'd prefer to see the yolks increase how much hunger they fill. Even just 5% limits you to 4 yolks a day and seems like it would be a lot easier to monitor and code.

On another note, really excited to see what the next event holds! I've been nosing through the decor and it all looks so gorgeous!

Xy - our goal was to address males as they can breed without restrictions. Females aren't as big of an issue because they have limited breedings, however nothing is set in stone. Yohimbes aren't also an endless supply, however we do appreciate your input on the situation and will keep it in mind! Inlcuding the hunger bit.

On the polls if it is 10 for main and 10 for sub, would it mean we could do ten to a female lioness and 10 to a sub or the main/sub combo is the only way.

Egg yolks already have a low chance to give any stats at all, and sometimes can be a huge waste of money while other times they give lots of stats. Lowering the chance of getting stats would make them less desirable especially for their current price.

And what about between main and sub account. say I used my 15 or 10 times on my sub and then sent him over to my alt account to do the same. Would that be counted as funneling and would be able to eat them still?

Xy - side accounts are fine!

I'm having mixed feelings on the rules on yolks. I understand where the concern is coming from, especially giving the shitshow we had last April. But I'm very hesitant in punishing players that happen to put all of their time and effort into one submale. Cause let's be real here, to reach 10k+ stats you're going to need either a lot of money or a lot of help.

But I suppose of we have rules in place preventing people from purposely fucking the market can see where this goes.

Good points Rabbity and I agree, raising the hunger they fill seems like it would be easier to monitor.

Xeno if you have questions feel free to pm me or another helper <3

Ok to be clear, you can transfer your sub between your accounts to feed him up to 20 yolks in a day? You just can't transfer him between different people?

Xy - it's just an idea to vote for right now. But if it'd be in place, you'd be allowed using sides of course

I think I'm confused about placing a limit on yolks for males. A male , sub and kings, only lose so much hunger a day, 20 points which means they can only eat 20 yolks as it is. Isn't that already limiting a males daily intake ?
