=== Zugzwang's Tower Sneak Peek and Feedback ===
 
''{{date|30|July|2010}}''
 
<blockquote>
 
<p>For the past several weeks, Jacob has been busy preparing the artwork for the launch of Zugzwang's Tower. By popular demand, we're releasing a teaser of what's to come.</p>
 
 
<p>We've also noticed the community's frustration in the lack of areas for players ranked above Knight. Zugzwang's Tower was initially designed for Heroes; not quite complex enough to challenge higher ranks. However, as the area became finalized and early play-testing began, it turned out to be more challenging than we thought!</p>
 
 
<p>Due to the abundant feedback asking for higher ranked areas, combined with how this new area turned out during play-testing, we have decided it is best suited with the title requirement of Lord/Lady.</p>
 
 
<p>We still want to add an additional Hero area to the game; an alternative to the Jungle of Dread approach. But unfortunately it won't be this one.</p>
 
 
<p>This change of plan brings about a couple questions for the community:</p>
 
 
* How do you feel about releasing teasers like this more often?
 
* How much detail about new areas should we release ahead of time?
 
* Should details released ahead of time be set in stone, or should content still in development be open to the suggestions of the community?
 
 
<p>We welcome your input, and any other feedback, via the forums or by contacting support.</p>
 
 
<p>And finally, here's a sneak peek at some of the artwork for Zugzwang's Tower!</p>

<blockquote>
<p>We've given our Camp Page a new look! We've also incorporated a few improvements to the Camp Page based on feedback we've received. Under the 'Friends Online' tab, each section of friends has been limited to 18, with a "see more" link appearing should you have more than 18 friends in that location. Additionally, the "Live Stream" tab is now labeled as "Status Updates".</p>
 
  
<blockquote><p>[http://i30.tinypic.com/scgadd.png]<br />The hunt timer has moved to beside the Camp button and should have a wood grain background behind it. If you do not see the wood grain background, please '''clear your browser's cache and refresh the page'''.</p></blockquote>

<p>The 'Give to Friends' page has been disabled for the past few days while we were working on correcting a problem that was occasionally causing supplies to be sent to the wrong friend. We've isolated the problem to Internet Explorer, and are still testing a work-around to correct the problem. In the meantime, we recommend you either use a different browser to send supplies, or search for your friend via the [http://apps.facebook.com/mousehunt/huntersgroup.php hunting group page], then click "Give Supplies" next to that friend. A warning message has been added to the supply transfer page.</p>

=== FB Credit Donation Resolution ===
 
''{{date|22|July|2010}}''
 
<blockquote>
 
<p>Hey everyone!</p>
 
 
 
<p>As you already know, we have had issues with FB credits once we re-instated it in MouseHunt V3. There are a chunk of users who have donated through FB credits that did not receive what they donated for before we implemented the fix which has corrected the issue for all future donations.</p>
 
 
 
<p>Thousands of support requests have come through and we have developed an automated process that is going through and completing these donations that did not end up getting processed.</p>
 
 
 
<p>By the end of today, anyone who had any donations through FB credits that did take their credits but not award them properly should have everything sorted out.</p>
 
 
 
<p>Due to the mass amounts of support tickets generated by this we will unfortunately not be able to respond personally to every ticket so we made this announcement to inform you that it will be getting corrected.</p>
 
  
<p>Once your outstanding donation gets completed you will see a journal entry to notify you that it indeed went through!</p>
 
 
<p>Our most sincere apologies for the delay's and frustrations caused by this.</p>
 
 
<p>Thank you for your patience and support!<br/>
 
Happy hunting,</p>

=== Problems with Facebook Credits ===
+
==== The Draconic Depths has Surfaced! ====
''{{date|21|July|2010}}''
+
Thanks to Ronza's tireless efforts, the Mythweaver's latest plot has been discovered and it is unfolding beneath our very feet.
<blockquote>
 
<p>Hey hunters!</p>
 
  
<p>We have recently noticed some players' donations using Facebook Credits not resulting in SUPER|brie+ being added to their inventory. We're looking into why these donations do not always go through.</p>
+
Instead of invading a world of fantasy yet again, this time the Mythweaver plans to invade the world with fantasy!
  
<p>If you have recently used Facebook Credits and did not receive any SUPER|brie+ please use the [http://apps.facebook.com/mousehunt/donationhelp.php Donation Support] link at the bottom of the game. If you do not know your order ID, please enter "n/a" or "none".</p>
+
So after losing his tenure at the School of Sorcery, this malevolent mastermind took it upon himself to dig up the very essence of fear and destruction in the minds and hearts of Gnawnians: dragons!
  
<p>We're in the process of upgrading our support tools to better look up these transactions. In the meantime, we have temporarily disabled Facebook Credits. Thanks for your patience while we get these tools built so we can better help those who have had a problem.</p>
+
The King is now calling upon all MouseHunters ranked Viceroy and above to travel to the new '''Draconic Depths''' and stop this invasion before it takes flight.
  
<p>Sorry for any confusion, we're working to have the problem resolved as soon as possible.</p>

+
The '''Tale of the First Dragons''' map piece can be purchased from the School of Sorcery Cartographer for '''1,000,000 Gold''', '''1,000 Sorcerer's Sapphires''', and requires completion of the Become a Master Sorcerer adventure for any hunters who have yet to obtain it.

=== MH Toolbar ===
+
==== New Dragon Hunting Gear at the New Trapsmith ====
''{{date|18|July|2010}}''
+
The Trapsmith at the Draconic Depths is well prepared to aid the MouseHunters of Gnawnia in their daunting task to descend into this dangerous den of dragons!
<blockquote>
 
<p>Hello fellow MouseHunters,</p>
 
<p>As some of you may or may not know, the toolbar has been made available for download and is circulating through the boards. We will be doing an official release of the toolbar very shortly with a supported link available through the MouseHunt HUD with its own page containing detailed installation instructions and further information about it.</p>
 
<p>For those who currently have it installed, here are some "ReadMe's" regarding the MouseHunt Toolbar:</p>
 
==== Supported Browsers: ====
 
<p>Currently the MouseHunt Toolbar is only supported on stable versions of:
 
*Internet Explorer 7+
 
*FireFox 2+
 
*Safari 5 on Mac</p>
 
<p>Unfortunately the Conduit company, which is the platform/foundation of the MH toolbar, currently does not support the Chrome browser. However, it is a browser they are looking into supporting in the near future.</p>
 
==== Technical Issues: ====
 
<p>If you are experiencing any technical issues (ie: stats not loading, broken images, not receiving SP)</p>
 
<p>You can try performing the following to solve these issues:</p>
 
<p>1.) Clear your cache
 
*[http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie6/using/howto/customizing/clearcache.mspx Internet Explorer Instructions]
 
*[http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Clear+Recent+History#Clearing_your_history Fire Fox Instructions]
 
*[http://support.verio.com/documents/view_article.cfm?doc_id=4069 Safari Instructions]</p>
 
<p>2.) Refresh your toolbar</p>
 
<p>Instructions: looking at the toolbar from the left hand side you'll see the MouseHunt logo. Next to the MouseHunt logo there is small down shaped arrow. Click on the small down shaped arrow and a drop down box/window will appear. From there, click on "Refresh Toolbar".</p>
 
  
==== 10 SuperBrie+ reward for installation: ====
+
<!-- 2x2 grid table -->
<p>Once you install the toolbar, you need to log in from the toolbar and do at least one hunt with it to register that you are indeed using the toolbar and have completed the installation of it. This "should" take approximately 30 minutes max but it has been taking longer to sync up with some users. If you have not received the bonus within 48 hours you may contact support.</p>
+
{| style="width: 66%; margin: auto; border-spacing: 1em"
<p>*** There will be a journal entry added to your journal once the SuperBrie+ is awarded to you through the toolbar. ***</p>
+
|-
<p>Bugs:
+
| style="width: 33%; border: 0.083em solid; border-radius: 0.416em; padding: 0.416em" |
We are currently looking into all reported bugs from the MH boards. In addition, we are looking into a better solution for users receiving their 10 SuperBrie+ reward in a shorter time span.</p>
 
<p>Other notes:
 
* You currently do not get SB+ from doing searches.
 
* You can only get the 10 SB+ reward once. If you uninstall it and re-install it again you will not be rewarded again.</p>

=== Cherry Mouse in the Calm Clearing ===
+
<center>Harness the breathtaking power of Dragon's Breath Opals!</center>
''{{date|15|July|2010}}''
 
<blockquote>
 
<p>To celebrate our partnership with Cherry Credits and the launch of MouseHunt Cherry Credit Cards in South-East Asia, a new Cherry Mouse has been added to the Calm Clearing in Whisker Woods!</p>
 
<p>The Cherry Mouse is attracted to the sweet smell of Cherry Cheese, which can be made by potions collected in the Calm Clearing. Cherry Cheese will not only attract the Cherry Mouse but also attract some of the stronger, more valuable mice in the clearing. Make sure your trap is up for the challenge!</p>
 
<p>We have also optimized the new hunt timer to fix a problem that was causing it to run quickly, making the horn to appear early. The timer should now be accurate on low-end computers as well.</p>
 
<p>Based on player feedback, we have made the live stream on the camp page only load when the tab is clicked on to view it. The stream will also "unload" when the trap setup or friends tab is clicked. This should make the camp page less strenuous on non-broadband users.</p>
 
<hr/>
 
<p>Also in this update:</p>
 
<p>- We corrected a bug preventing hunters from crafting the S.S. Huntington II if they had more than 1 Ship Blueprint in their inventory.</p>
 
<p>- The SUPER|brie+ Gift Basket now provides the Lucky Golden Shield to the opener of the basket for one month.</p>
 
<p>- Shield lengths have been added to the descriptions of SUPER|brie+ packages in the donate pop-up.</p>
 
<p>- Various typos in traps/mice have been corrected.</p>

* Power: '''3,000'''
<blockquote>
+
* Power Bonus: '''20%'''
<p>Hello MouseHunters! As you have most likely noticed a "next hunt" timer has been added to the heads up display. The timer is accurate to the minute, and is intended to promote healthy competition between your hunting party members by tracking who is the first to sound the horn and score the extra bonus points.</p>
+
* Attraction Bonus: '''50%'''
 +
* Luck: 35
 +
* Cheese Effect: Ultimately Fresh
 +
* Requires: Sorcerer's Sapphire Refractor Base
 +
<center>'''Special Effects'''</center>
 +
* Doubles Dragonhide Sliver loot drops
 +
* Includes all previous Refractor base effects
  
<p>Some extra features have also been added to the camp page to help hunters check which members of their hunting party are online in their location, as well as allowing them to communicate with friends more easily. Seeing where all your friends are at a glance, should prove to be an easy way to decide where the best place to hunt may be. Since the look of these tabs has yet to be polished, we'll be adjusting the look and layout of the new tabs based on player feedback.</p>

<p>We knew the transition from MH v2 to "Longtail" would be a bit of a bumpy ride. With the help of the MouseHunt Community, we've been keeping a close eye on any small problems, trying to spot areas where Glitchpaw Mice may be causing trouble. We've managed to catch the majority of Glitchpaws, and now we need your help to capture the few that remain. We've scattered Glitchpaw Mice around the Kingdom, and they have unique drops in each area they inhabit. Occasionally, they may also require a special hunting strategy. Good luck tracking them down. They're out for a limited time only!</p>
+
<center>A powerful alternative for hunters without a Dragon Slayer Cannon</center>
  
<p>Finally, one more new mouse has been added to the Gnawnia region. The Spotted mouse enjoys the fresh air and sunshine of the Meadow, but its love of travel means it can occasionally be "spotted" in other areas as well.</p>

The Draconic Depths has Surfaced!

13 August 2024

Viceroy hunters and above can now embark on a new adventure.
A new area has released in the Folklore Forest!

The Draconic Depths has Surfaced!

Thanks to Ronza's tireless efforts, the Mythweaver's latest plot has been discovered and it is unfolding beneath our very feet.

Instead of invading a world of fantasy yet again, this time the Mythweaver plans to invade the world with fantasy!

So after losing his tenure at the School of Sorcery, this malevolent mastermind took it upon himself to dig up the very essence of fear and destruction in the minds and hearts of Gnawnians: dragons!

The King is now calling upon all MouseHunters ranked Viceroy and above to travel to the new Draconic Depths and stop this invasion before it takes flight.

Prepare for your Descent

The Tale of the First Dragons map piece can be purchased from the School of Sorcery Cartographer for 1,000,000 Gold, 1,000 Sorcerer's Sapphires, and requires completion of the Become a Master Sorcerer adventure for any hunters who have yet to obtain it.

Seismic effects on Baitkeep Charms

The intense seismic activity within the Draconic Depths has an effect on Baitkeep Charms when they're used within the Draconic Depths.

In the Draconic Depths, Baitkeep Charms have a 50% chance of activating and saving your bait when used. However, whenever they don't activate, the charm will not be consumed, keeping it intact for the next hunt.

Here Be Dragons!
