===[[Elf Mouse|Elf Mice]] on the loose!===
 
''11 December 2008''

<blockquote>
<p>It seems the mice disguised as [[Elf Mouse|elves]] who stole a huge batch of gifts from Santa's workshop are currently making their way though the MouseHunt world in an effort to escape! Be on the look out for these wanted mice! Should you catch one we're sure Santa will let you keep one (or more) of the gifts.</p><p>In their mad dash to escape, it seems these fake elves also dropped a huge stash of [[Gift|gifts]] in the mountains of Gnawnia where some bashful [[Abominable Snow Mouse|Abominable Snow Mice]] were seen scooping them up. These mice are known to travel around, so keep your eyes peeled on your friends' journals to spot where they might currently be located!</p><p>Should you find an [[Magically Wrapped Gift|elusive gift]], it will appear in the new 'Misc' tab of your inventory. You'll be able to open these gifts on December 25th. Greediness is certainly not a desirable trait for a MouseHunter, so you'll find that a limit of 30 red gifts and 3 green gifts is in place.</p><p>Good luck in the hunt and happy holidays from the entire MouseHunt team!</p>

<p>Hey MouseHunters!</p>
 
<p>Just a quick update to let you know that both Facebook and MouseHunt have NO viruses or other types of risks related with browsing them on your browser!</p>
 
<p>The warning certain versions of Norton are giving are false and it is unknown why these errors are occurring.</p>
 
<p>Norton labels a certain Facebook server (their image server, I believe) as a risk factor. This is an issue that Norton needs to sort out and you should have no worries regarding this matter!</p>

''10 December 2008''
 
<blockquote>
 
<p>For the last couple weeks we have been tracking a bug some players have been reporting indicating they were receiving two instead of the intended three pieces of cheese when crafting susheese, glutter, combat and rumble.</p>
 
<p>We have traced this to be from a small loop hole that would sometimes leave players with negative one piece of cheese. This would result in them ending up with 2 pieces of cheese when crafting a recipe that yields three.</p>
 
<p>We're working on patching this issue in the next update. Until then take comfort in that if you experience this glitch it means that you received a free piece of cheese at an earlier time in the form of an extra hunt while you were out of cheese.</p>

=== Cork Board and Travel Cost Update ===
 
''2 December 2008''
 
<blockquote><p>Many players have requested a way to send their friends MouseHunt related messages and so we have added the "Hunter's Cork Board" to profile pages. When viewing the Hunter's Profile of a friend you'll have a text box where you can post comments. We are also planning on adding a preference page where players can control exactly what groups of people are allowed to post on or view their cork board. This preference page is also where we plan to add other various options such as who can send you trade requests, view when you were last active, your quantity of SUPER|brie+ and various other preferences in the game.</p>
 
<p>Travel costs have also been completely overhauled to increase the emphasis on distance rather than a specific cost for each location. What this means is that many locations will be much cheaper to travel to (especially the Laboratory) depending on where you are traveling from. Players hunting in the Furoma region will also benefit from having very low travel costs when simply moving from floor to floor in the Pagoda. As always your comments and feedback are welcome via the suggestions forum. Based on feedback we may further tweak travel costs.</p>
 
<p>Also in this update are various minor tweaks and changes such as the appearance of the Hunter's Journal and layout of profile pages. We have also yet again tweaked some of the fonts used in the King's Rewards to help readability. We have also further increased the size of the rewards based on hunter's title. We are also working on one or two completely different styles of rewards such as 'What number is in the triangle?' which should be easier to decipher.</p>
