The Party Was a Blast!

12 March 2012

The Party Was a Blast!

MouseHunt's Fourth Birthday Party was absolutely incredible, thanks to all of you! Seriously, you made this party awesome!

We can't wait for next year's grand celebration! We really hope you can come!

Have some left-over Party Charms? You can use them for a power bonus! What about your Nanny Charms? Save them! I'm sure we'll see the Terrible Twos mouse again...

Speaking of troublesome mice, Glitchpaws will be around until Wednesday!

Thanks again for everything, MouseHunters!

MouseHunt's Fourth Birthday is over

The Party is Almost Over!

MouseHunt's Fourth Birthday Party has been so amazing, thanks to all of you!

Unfortunately, all parties must eventually end, but we'll have another grand celebration next year!

If you're still building the Birthday Cake, head to the Birthday Party Celebration area in Gnawnia and finish up quickly! The party will end later today, so be sure to buy any of the Birthday Bases you might be missing, and obtain the Birthday Party Piñata Bonanza if you have proof of catching the Dinosuit Mouse!

Birthday Gifts for Friends

The birthday gifts for friends are still around, so be sure to buy something special for someone special!

Glitchpaws Invade the Party

07 March 2012

Hey hunters,

It seems the Glitchpaw Mice were eager to celebrate our fourth birthday and crashed the party, resulting in a hefty amount of downtime just as the party was coming to a climax. Once the Glitchpaw invasion was discovered, the team worked for hours to isolate the problem.

Unfortunately the aftermath of this Glitchpaw attack was hunters inventories being a little jumbled and gold, points and progress stats to be drastically lowered. After diagnosing the problem and exhausting all other options, we determined that a rollback was necessary.

This means that the game state and the stats of all hunters were reverted to an earlier state. Anything done in-game between 12am GMT to 6am GMT was restored to the state they were at 12am GMT.

For example: If you spent 1,000 gold on a trap or marketplace item during the effected time, it will be as if it never happened, meaning you do not have the trap or item and still have your 1,000 gold.

We realize a rollback can be extremely frustrating for players and as such they are always a last resort. Please know the team worked extremely hard looking for ways to restore lost data without having to revert the game to a previous state. Please know that over the coming days we will continue to look into what lead to this problem and are looking for ways to help avoid such problems from occurring again.

If you purchased SUPER|brie+ or another item with real-world cash we are working from a backup of our transaction history to restore those purchased items to your inventory. We're working hard to get those items in your inventory as soon as possible. Thanks for your patience and your support!

You can help get MouseHunt's 4th Birthday Party back into swing by hunting Glitchpaw Mice that can be found across nearly the entire Kingdom. If you capture a pesky Glitchpaw Mouse while at the Birthday Party celebration you also find some very special loot! Due to the downtime, the party has been extended by a few extra days, giving you even more time to hunt down those troublesome Glitchpaws!

As a special token of thanks for your patience and understanding during the downtime, we've packed some extra SUPER|brie+ into a special birthday gift. If you've hunted at all during the birthday event you'll find a a DLU Gift Box in the special section of your inventory. Unwrap it now and enjoy the goodies within!

-<p>Head on over to the Birthday Party Celebration area and hunt down the mice that have run off with necessary birthday cake ingredients. You'll need to find 15 Blobs of Cake Batter, 15 Dollops of Icing, 4 Birthday Cake Candles, and 4 Sparks of Candle Flame, in that order, to complete the MouseHunt Birthday Cake.</p>

-<p>All of the mice at the Birthday Party Celebration area are celebrating, and most have Party Charms on them! Find these charms and equip them to gain a small power and luck bonus, and to better attract mice carrying birthday cake ingredients!</p>

-Some of the mice have put on party hats for this birthday celebration. These little mice, however, have gone the extra mile and dressed up as their favourite animal: the dinosaur. They want to be dinosaurs when they grow up, and we just don't have the heart to tell them otherwise. Be wary of these little troublemakers; dinosaurs have voracious appetites, and mice love sugar. Put it all together and your cake won't be safe for long once it's fully built!
+<p>If you purchased SUPER|brie+ or another item with real-world cash we are working from a backup of our transaction history to restore those purchased items to your inventory. We're working hard to get those items in your inventory as soon as possible. Thanks for your patience and your support!</p>

+<p>You can help get MouseHunt's 4th Birthday Party back into swing by hunting Glitchpaw Mice that can be found across nearly the entire Kingdom.

-<p>That cake you built sure looks tasty, doesn't it? I bet the mice would like a slice, too! Build the MouseHunt Birthday Cake and you'll be able to sneak a small slice to use as a new celebratory base for your trap.</p>
-<p>Also, be sure to visit the Trapsmith to find birthday cake bases from previous birthdays!</p>
-'''Birthday Party Piñata Bonanza'''
-<p>This one-of-a-kind trap was drawn live and created entirely by suggestions from hunters, and will be available only during MouseHunt's Fourth Birthday event. The Trapsmith will require concrete proof of your Mandatory Birthday Party Participation, so get to making that cake!</p>
-'''Elven Princess Mouse'''
-<p>Four-year-olds love dinosaurs, of course. But they also love princesses, and the Elven Princess Mouse just couldn't stay away from a birthday party. Catch her and maybe you can convince her to hand over the Tiara she had made especially for this event!</p>
-'''Magic Mouse'''
-<p>What birthday party would be complete without a magician? The Magic Mouse — attracted to the idea of obtaining more SUPER|brie+ — has kindly offered up his services for the birthday party. In addition to a pile of tricks and toys, he also carries birthday cake ingredients and Party Charms. Catch him for a real boost to your celebrations!</p>
-====Party Games====
-<p>What's a birthday without some party games? Check out the birthday tournaments and celebrate MouseHunt's Fourth Birthday in a more competitive way!</p>
-<p>Check them out [http://{{MHdomain}}/tournamentlist.php here]!</p>
-====Birthday Gifts for Friends====

-====Party Giftbox and Party-in-a-Box====
-'''Party Giftbox'''
-<p>This giftbox is filled with fun goodies to celebrate MouseHunt's Fourth Birthday! Inside you'll find 100 SUPER|brie+ and 20 Party Charms. It also provides the Lucky Golden Shield for 1 month when opened. Buy one and give it to a friend!</p>
-'''Party-in-a-Box'''
-<p>Due to a shipping mishap the King has demanded a 10% discount on the new Party-in-a-Box. It appears 450 SUPER|brie+, 75 Party Charms and the Lucky Golden Shield made the container a bit too heavy to lift safely and they all seem to have received a Dent along the way. All items inside are guaranteed to be in perfect working condition but the pretty box is a bit scuffed.</p>
