<p>As many hunters have already noticed, a familiar airship has been spotted flying in from the North East. Aboard the infamous ship is none-other than [[Ronza]] the traveling merchant!</p>
 
 
<p>Ronza is flying into the wind and carrying lots of supplies making her flight slow but steady. She hopes to make landfall sometime next week.</p>
 
 
<p>You can track Ronza's progress towards Gnawnia yourself by clicking the full map link located on the Travel Page. Her final destination is the empty spot just south of the Gnawnia Castle.</p>

<p>The payment gateway is available for anyone to use, but what's extra special is that Cherry Credits provides MANY ways to purchase credits, such as your mobile phone, with a credit card, and what I find especially awesome: physical scratch cards purchased from shops in Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, Brunei, and other Southeast Asian countries!</p>

<p>This new payment gateway has been implemented to provide another great way to donate for SUPER|brie+ and to make it available for players of all ages and from all places! You can walk into a 7-11 in Singapore and purchase a scratch card with the MouseHunt logo right ON it for plain old cash! I just think that's so cool!! The scratch card will have a code that you redeem for credits in your Cherry Credits account, and from there you can use those credits to donate for SUPER|brie+.</p>

=== Mysterious Box Changes ===
 
''{{date|30|September|2009}}''
 
 
<blockquote>
 
<blockquote>
<p>From very early on we have always welcomed the constructive feedback and suggestions of players. It's the input of players that helps make sure things are both fun and challenging for everyone.</p>
 
  
<p>Based on constructive suggestions, we have changed how hunters may obtain a Frozen Scroll. Going forward, every Acolyte mouse will drop a Frozen Scroll along with the Mysterious Box. The contents of the box have been slightly changed, also based on the feedback of players.</p>
+
'''Viceroy hunters and above can now embark on a new adventure.'''<br>
 +
Study hard to advance from Apprentice to Master at the School of Sorcery!
  
<p>For those who have already opened their boxes, the King will be awarding them with either a Mysterious Box or a Frozen Scroll. If you have never had a Frozen Scroll you will receive one and if you have had a Frozen Scroll in the past then you shall receive a Mysterious Box. This way each hunter involved receives one free item.</p>
+
==== Classes have begun at the School of Sorcery! ====
 +
The Mythweaver's latest plot has been discovered and it involves instructing the mice of the Folklore Forest in the ways of his malevolent magic!
  
<p>We appreciate that many players liked things how they were, but we feel this is a change that is welcomed by the majority of players. Some players have asked the question: "Who are the developers? You, or the players?" The answer is both. We see the community as a member of the development team and have always reached out and welcomed the suggestions and ideas of players.</p>
+
The King needs the bravest and most studious MouseHunters, Viceroy and above, to enroll at the new School of Sorcery and teach the Mythweaver and his minions a thing or two about classroom etiquette.
  
<p>If you are hunting an Acolyte or Dragon mouse, then you no doubt have enjoyed the previous game content that lead you to these new goals. This content you enjoyed to get where you are was made in the same way, using the feedback of the players to adjust existing content and features.</p>
+
==== Enrollment Process! ====
 +
The Tale of the Sorcerer's Apprentice map piece can be purchased from the Bountiful Beanstalk Cartographer for '''1,000,000 Gold''', '''1,000 Golden Goose Eggs''', and requires completion of the Slay the Mythical Giant King adventure for any hunters who have yet to obtain it.
  
<p>A big thanks to everyone who shared their constructive suggestions! The players are what make MouseHunt great!</p>
+
Alternatively, hunters who earned Thousandth Draft Derby Cheese during the Spring Egg Hunt can earn the map piece by hunting the M1000 at the Table of Contents.
  
<p>Along with a Frozen Scroll or Mysterious Box, players may notice another smaller, more cuddly item in their inventory. We were able to get an early supply of this item, but if you didn't get one, don't stress... We're sure a larger shipment will arrive by air sometime soon.</p>

<p>These changes may also require some adjustment to the quantities of items in the Mysterious Box as well as the difficulty of catching the Dragon.</p>
 
 
 
<p>New gameplay elements are currently developed and decided upon by surveying groups of players and then putting those changes into play testing with a group of beta testers. In the coming weeks we are going to be increasing this survey pool to include a broader range of active, passive, experienced and less experienced players in hopes of obtaining a wider range of feedback.

<p>The flow of magma from Dracano has finally calmed to a level safe enough for hunters to setup traps.</p>
 
 
 
<p>The mouse that inhabits Dracano is a testament to how old the Tribal Isles are. Long ago the Acolyte mice attempted to control the Dragon mice of Dracano using a powerful spell written upon a frozen scroll.</p>
 
 
 
<p>With the Acolyte mice now locked away in their Realm and the disappearance of Plankrun, it is up to the King's most experienced hunters to prevent the Dragon mice from making Gnawnia their new roost!</p>

<p>As with every release, we welcome feedback and constructive criticism. Your feedback can result in new content being changed slightly so please do express your opinions and suggestions.
