More Bug Squashing!
Posted by AdminAssistant on 2 May 2018, 9:45 am
Hello everyone!
Here's another announcement!
The Dragonsmaw Pies have been fixed to properly display the buffs now. Luckily the buffs were active from the beginning when they were applied, they were just hiding from our sight! Buffs should now properly display on villagers with and without costumes! If you happen to get a buff that is the same buff that comes with your costume then these buffs will not stack.
We have also been made aware of some runaway pumpkins. To clarify if there's actually a bug or not I'd like to refresh everyone's memory on DMM reward requirements.
A pumpkin who has stayed at a base of 500 grams will disappear and won't give any rewards.
A pumpkin who has between 600-1,400 grams will reward pumpkin guts and a Bronze Grand Pumpkin Trophy.
A pumpkin who has between between 1,500-2,400 grams will reward pumpkin guts and a Silver Grand Pumpkin Trophy.
A pumpkin who has 2,500+ grams will reward pumpkin guts, Chester's Hat, and a Gold Grand Pumpkin Trophy.
A pumpkin who has 7,500 grams will reward pumpkin guts, Chester's Hat, a Gold Grand Pumpkin Trophy, and one Dragonsmaw Pie. For every additional 5,000 grams reached after the pumpkin reaches 7,500 grams another Dragonsmaw Pie will be awarded.
If you had a pumpkin above 500 grams that suddenly disappeared without being smashed first, please let us know in a Report.
Lastly, Chester's Hat shouldn't be giving out FDE/Limited event pets anymore. If it still does please let us know. The few users who did get FDE/Limited pets from the hat are allowed to keep their pets.

Admin-Wisteria I appreciate your quick reply. I'm pretty good with that reason. Thanks!

Every 500 grams on your pumpkin granted 100 pumpkin guts. The seed logs & seed books restored inaccurate amounts of guts, so we needed another variable to measure - unfortunately, this was the only functional way we could restore some resemblance of the lost pumpkin guts, though as expected it wouldn't of been entirely accurate.
A bit of a quick-fix, but I'd rather not dwell on the disaster that was the DMM festival forever and have some solution provided rather than none.
If it's a widespread concern, we may be able to restore guts manually, but we're all pretty tied up behind the scenes right now so it may take awhile before we can address individual cases.

I do not know the specifics on the Pumpkin Guts. You'll have to ask Admin-Wisteria about that.
MOD-Thaleia May I ask what the guts returned % was based on? I harvested over 6600 pumpkins but only got back 1500 or so. Thanks

My apologies, but I haven't heard anything about a fix for the Hallowed Potion yet.
MOD-Thaleia Is the Hallowed Potion now working as intended too?
Oh dear. I should have read this news post right after the last one. (I've been on and off here for a while, so I just merely glance..) I just reported about the pumpkin disappearing on my page. I guess it was supposed to as I think it was 500 grams only.... Pinging a mod to let them know to ignore my report. Sorry for wasting time and effort. :( MOD-Thaleia

Mechanical pets have their rarity set as Limited and should have been removed from the pool by default upon the fix. If people are still getting Mechanical pets from the hat please let us know.

I understand your frustration, but this decision was made in response to the Pumpkin Guts disappearing, as it was thought to be unfair to up the prices on a recipe who's material isn't available in masses anymore.
Does that hat still give mechanical pets?
I remember seeing people getting those, They're limited technically but I don't know if they count as such. Considering how challenging they are supposed to be gotten the normal way, might not be a bad idea to exclude them as well. Just a thought from someone who did craft the mech pets ^^;
MOD-Thaleia Thanks for the reply! If that is what is decided about candy, I understand.
Concerning the potion price, however...
From the official news post on October 27th 2017, it reads: "The crafting price on this recipe is 500 FD, I am told that that price will be going up after the event ends, 500 FD is a special discounted Event exclusive price."
November 2nd news: "On the 14th of November, the Hallowed Potion will have its price raised to 1,000 FD. Be sure to get yours now, if you're after it!"
I invested in a lot in potions because of these posts. :/
