====Recent Maintenance and Downtime====
 +
Today shortly after the Lunar New Year event came to an end the game began to experience issues including trap setups and hunt results changing. Upon the issue coming to our attention we confirmed there was an issue and decided to put the game into unscheduled maintenance due to the severity of the problem.
  
The traveling spice merchant Jaqueline, or "Big Jaq" as she's known to friends, has once again setup her Spice Shack in the Queso Canyon. Visit any General Store in the areas of the Queso Canyon region to visit her popup shop where all sorts of spicy deals are available.
+
The dev team got to work investigating what the cause of problem was. After some time we identified a network configuration issue isolated to a group of servers that were brought online shortly after the Lunar New Year event came to an end. This network issue caused connectivity problems between the web server and a data server causing the problem with trap setups not saving or changing.
  
While Big Jaq is visiting, there are also some unique loot drops to find! Boost your Bland Queso collection by recovering Kegs of Bland Queso from mice throughout the Queso Canyon region.

Thanks for your patience and understanding while the team investigated the network issue at our hosting provider.

These Kegs of Queso can be collected anywhere in the region, including Queso Geyser! The kegs are fortunately heat-resistant and buoyant enough to safetly float in the liquid hot queso at the geyser. As a result, the kegs will appear as loot drops directly from mice and not in nests.
