-LOCKED - August Event!

August Event - Droughts and Fires!

 A ravaging Sahel Drought disrupts migrations sweeping across Africa, claiming lives of humans, livestock and wildlife. With animals dying, many camps have been set to feed hippos and provide basic sources of water for most needing animals like elephants. Reports on rivers drying up are increasing by the day, as the wet seasons never arrive.
 What will lions do? Will you rampage local farms and villages, or try to survive on scarce herds and starved corpses? Will you cause a conflict or succumb to plans of nature?

 The drought event is supposed to be harsh. You will struggle to survive - your huntresses might experience some failures as well as your male might be struggling to battle if he's too thirsty.

 This month, your decisions will affect the good and evil bars (as well as your karma!). If you guys are evil, opportunistic bastards, the evil bar will fill out first and unlock the Evil Shop. If you guys will decide to be good instead, the Good Shop will open. The outcome will reset daily so you can try again with different decisions, don't worry!
 The rewards in the good/evil shops will be fully unlocked from start, the magic will be to gather the currency, which are Carrion Beetles and Bones, that you will find in Explore.
You might have noticed the two additional bars on the News page: Humans Killed & Dried Bones Collected

 Of course, they're also based on the evil and good incentive, but they'll progress continously thorough the event..(mind you, we might adjust the numbers if you guys go too quickly, we're really always surprised by how many active players we have..!). They both will unlock something special and amazing.

 You will also notice a THIRST bar. 100% thirst means you are extremely thirsty and you need to find source of water - found in explore or from items. Thirst drops by 10% every 30 minutes!
 0% Thirst means you're good to go! What does Thirst affect? If you're too thirsty, you won't be able to fight with any NPC's!
So... will you eat humans? Will you protect animals? Good luck!

Remember that this event will end on August 31st at 11:59PM Lioden Time

I found an aloe leaf while exploring but it isn't in my hoard and I am still at 100% thirst D:

Should I report it to the bug board?

Earlier I was taking a bath.

When I came back on here...I saw there was a new news post.

Lots of food to around for my pride, thanks to exploring. *patiently waits for the energy to go back up*

The food being scarce isn't too big of a problem once you find out that some of the explore options will give you food. <3 Hopefully this quells at least /some/ of the inevitable bitching. XD

The rewards in the good/evil shops will be fully unlocked from start

So that means all the tiers are unlocked from the start?
It's not showing how many humans have been killed and how many bones have been collected.

Funny thing is, I just got like 4 or 5 zebra carcasses while exploring due to the event. So far getting food has been ironically easier lol. Will have to see if it was just a lucky streak though.
Loving the moral decisions I've come across :) Makes you think.

P.S Also I get this event quite often regarding Following the Pangolin.
It says something along the lines of it leading you to water and you gain energy, might be nice for this event to help with thirst as well during the event.

P.S.S I certainly agree regarding the thirst bar, especially since I am basically always logged in until I close my laptop for the night. If I wanted to keep my thirst bar up I would have to log out every time I need to browse the web, draw, etc I suppose. That's pretty tedious.
The suggestion of 10% an hour below at least gives us a bit of a chance with the thirst bar. Please consider.

I like the general idea for this event, but am already really hating the thirst bar. Mostly I feel like I'm fighting the manage the thirst bar and only the thirst bar. I understand that's part of the point of the event, but I don't want to spend an entire month fighting a single bar. Maybe it's because I've just been super unlucky in explore finding water events? Or maybe it's because I do battle my lion against every NPC because I want to try and level him, and with this (so far) I /can't/ spend energy fighting NPCs when I have to keep hoping I find water. And when I DO get a water event... the 30 minute mark hits and then I lose most of (if not more) than I just gained. Its VERY frustrating and completely not fun for me at this moment. I know it's super early in the event, but I hope you'll consider balancing out the thirst drop. Maybe have it drop 10% an hour instead of every 30 minutes? Or only a small percentage point each hour?

I don't mean to sound so down, but I've never started off an event on this site having it feel so completely unfun to me before. A few have felt like they'd be tough in the beginning, but none ever made me feel like I have to do the event thing and ONLY the event thing because I can't do anything else :/ I like the general idea, and I understand you guys want it to be tough, but I feel like I can't do anything else in the game with my lion except explore in hopes of lucking across water... and that's not what I want to spend an entire month doing.

It is a little unbalanced for part timers. Since you can't fill thirst in a single exploring session. Those of us with jobs won't get any NPC fighting in August.
