But wait, there's more

Pooloons of the month!

Need a way to get those sweet extra MD in gift arts for them afterall!~
I was going to start off with 2 like I did for Saps, but there's already 50 approved Pools, so we are going full force!

Pool-035: Common Pooloon

Pool-001: Splash

Pool-029: Distro

Pool-031: Liminal

Some general notes

This section is going to be a bit short this time around. I've used up a lot of time and energy getting Pooloons ready for launch, so I slowed down last month with adding new items for Saps (as that time went to Pools). BUT, as the launch comes to a close, I'll be back in full swing soon!

As a reminder, I do actively read and reread #suggestions in the discord! Feel free to drop things there!

january 2025 newsletter

Happy new year! I hope all your enjoy the holidays and just as a friendly reminder, the December Prompt has just over 7 more days left to finish. If you haven't finished it, now is your chance before moving onto the new prompt!

Some general updates, before SOTM:

• GA apps in this newsletter!

• Site updates

Anyways, SOTM time!!

Saps of the month!

Drawing these characters for the gift art prompt will net you a bonus in baby stars! If you want your Sap to show up as a Sap of the Month, please make sure to have them set as "gift art yes" and/or "gift writing yes" in their profile settings. c:

SO-108: Kaos

Some general notes

Feral Bacon no longer has a user purchase limit. Meaning if you have purchased it before, you may do so again!

Speaking of shop items, we would like to ask that members don't purchase above thier needs. Buying out stock prevents other members from recieving those items. We are currently looking into getting an extention to set monthly user limits to prevent this, but that extention is giving us trouble. For the time being, please avoid hoarding. Thank you!

Pooloon related, all Pooloon items are in the shop and ready for launch! With launch coming soon, maybe take a look around to see what you may be after for your future Pools!
On the topic of Pooloons, there will be MYO fusions/crafting for combining MYO items onto the next trait level. For those of you that got a common one from the advent calendar; maybe save it for an upgrade. Also, the MYO slots that have been passed out will be usuable once the species launches.

Our site has gotten some changes! New colors and a nice BG! We are working on a few other cosmetic changes.

Known Bug Issue:

• 429/500 errors occurring during dailies and some other tasks UPDATE: This is an added feature of the extention from the creators to avoiding request spamming. We knocked back the timer as much as we could. It's roughly 5~10 seconds between dailies now.
• Clock is on the wrong time zone. At some point in the future it will be changed to CST/CDT.

Please report any other findings in a report ticket on site or in the discord's #site-bugs <3< /p>

What's new

Inky Tooth!

This item is in shop for 2000!

November's prompt

Mining Time! (Rerun)
This is a rerun of the first ever prompt we had after launch! Visit this prompt again for updated rewards OR complete it for your first time!!

You make it to the end, code time: NEW2025YEAR

As many of you have noticed, there's now a second site currency: Moon Droplets

And as other have noticed, there's a second Master List, but there's nothing there... Yet.

We've been working on a second species to join the site: Pooloons!
And this is the official announcement that they are coming soon!

What does this mean?
It means there's a new species you can draw and collect along with Sapsidians! Though the currency used is different, so you are also free to ignore these little water noodles.

What are Pooloons?
A poolroom backed species I, Hack, got as a custom from Deeoxie about a year ago. They don't have "real" arms, but instead use the water they collect through their feet to make arms.

Updated concept by Hack | Original concept by Deeoxie 
You can read/see more information here.

How can I get Moon Droplets?
Moon Droplets cannot currently be collected until the species is officially launch. Though, once launched, there will be a couple prompts and the launch event to collect some with. Once officially on site, you will be able to collect them regularly via events and prompts.
Once you collect some Moon Droplets , you can use them in this shoppe!

Will there be adopts?
There are already adopts ready for launch! Some might be previewed ahead of time as well!

Can I see the traits?
Yes! Traits can now be viewed over here!

Can I be pinged when launched? 
Yes! Comment on the TH thread to be pinged! (Or, have the announcement/Event pings on in the discord server)

Newsletter follow-up time!

We have some updates on the missing parts of the last newsletter, including some BONUS NEWS!

Let's start with the big stuff, new GAs!

RotSea omniiamne AceByte 5Y1V13 tangy

Please welcome them with open arms!

New Prompts

This month's prompt is Keep Warm!, a prompt with a loose concept of just drawing a sap being warm and cozy. This prompt also has a LIMITED TIMED USER BOARDER!! This means if you don't complete the prompt in time, you'll be missing out on the boarder. The prompt goes on until the 10th of Jan, end of day site time.

Surprise, surprise! There's another new prompt and this one is forever!~

The long awaited writting gift prompt is here!
Writers now have a second option for collecting site currency!
ALSO, moving forward, 2 of the SOTMs will always have yes to both writing and drawing, so writers always have some options for getting extra Baby Stars. Please check out the prompt if you're a writer!~

It's Winter time!

Hello, hello! It's the last month of the year! That means a mixture of different winter seasonal holidays are going to be happening back to back. Many people will be busy this time of year, so we're keeping things light and easy for everyone. This means that the monthly prompt will not request a background this month so it can be more easily fitted into people's schedule!

There's also an event this month, new GAs (to be announced on the 5th), and general updates on what's next!

Let's kick everything off, as per usual, with Saps of the Month!

Saps of the month!

Drawing these characters for the gift art prompt will net you a bonus in baby stars! If you want your Sap to show up as a Sap of the Month, please make sure to have them set as "gift art yes" in their profile settings. c:

ALSO, next month is also a start to a new year. This means that we will start allowing repeats on SotM. So there's a small chance that saps you have seen throughout the year will reappear next year. Though, Saps will not appear twice during the same calendar year.

Anyways, this month we have:

SMYO-213: Azdana the Blade Forger

SMYO-220: Liam

SMYO-517: Cyra

SMYO-387: Aurora Celeste

Event time!

We're hosting an Advent Calendar this year! So instead of a code for newsletter readers, we have a daily check in you can do for bonus!

December 2024

There's some goodies from holiday user icon boarders to rare magical trait items! Check in daily to collect them all! There's a bonus item if you collect all 31 days of December.

Don't worry about saving the calendar link. You can quickly get to it from the navigation bar. (Might be a few days before it's added, but will be up soon)
Activity>Current Events

Guest Artist voting is underway

Voting is still currently taking place, there will be a second newsletter this month to announce them along with a ping in the discord server! Stay tuned if you've applied!

The announcement will be on the 5th

December Prompt!

I'm finishing up some art work for the promo image of the prompt for this month, so that will be up in the coming days. 

With that said, the prompt will have some extra time added to it, not only for the delay but also to account for the holidays.

Upcoming News and general updates 

• There is some exciting news in the works, we're been working hard on getting things ready. You'll be heading more about this portion of news this month and next. 
• Did you know the species is almost a year old now? The site was made on February 22nd and the species opened up in March! Maybe someone special will happen around those dates...
• Take care and have fun this holiday season!

A note from Hack: The last bit of this was edited on mobile. Formatting errors and typos will be checked and fixed soon. I didn't want this letter to be sent out late. 💚💚💚

Guest Artist apps are finally open! They will be open from now until end of day of the 29th (EST), please get your apps in by then.

Notes about the apps:

• You will be able to edit your app via email after completion. Please do this instead of submitting a second app.

• Rewards and rules for GAs have been changed a bit, if you were GA before and are reapplying, please re-read the rules when accepted.

SMYO-265: Goob

SMYO-010: Swashbuckler

Some general notes

Feral Bacon was added and ping about in the discord server when it hit the shop, and sadly all 20 are already gone. As a reminder, we limited to heavily to avoid floating of MYO requests for the new subtype for staff. More will be added on the first of December. If I think we're good to stock more ealier, I will ping in the discord when that happens, though currently it's unlikely.

A list of bug fixes:

• You can change your username again (once a month)
• Notifications sometimes not working
• Small backend stuff

Known Issue:

• 429/500 errors occurring during dailies and some other tasks; if this happens, just wait roughly 15~30 seconds and retry.

Please report any other findings in a report ticket on site or in the discord's #site-bugs <3

What's new

Crafting goodies! I usually don't mention these in the newsletter (as most people figure it out quite quickly), but there's some cool new trait items you can make in Crafting! Make sure to check them out!

November's prompt

Fall Back into Leaves
Fall Back just happened for all the parts of the world that have it, so why don't we fall back into the freshly fallen leaves all around us!? Draw a sap enjoying the fall time by playing in the leaves!

guest artists

A lot going on this month, as mentioned above, so we just asked which GAs were down for a second term. These that stayed will continue to post fun designs through-out this month! Keep an eye out for their new stuff!

You make it to the end, code time: Fallback2024

October newsletter

Hello! Spooky month is here so let's go have fun with Fall season joy!

Refreshes for the shop has already happened on the first. If the thing you wanted sold out, now is your time to snatch it up! Please note: Feral Bacon is listed in shop but is set to 0 stock. This is so that when it releases next month, people will have the price they need to save up for in an easy to find location.

Anyways, SOTM time!!

SMYO-072: Niki !

Some general notes

I've been working on getting Epic items in shop for every trait. This includes items for Jester Ears and Fish Ears, 2 Epic traits that have been asked for to recieve items. More are still being added over item!

The price for "Break Your Face" has been deceased from 1500BS to 1000BS, the original price was higher to comp for it allowing two different traits, but since the traits can't be combined, the price was lowered to be closer to the 800BS for other Epic upgrade items.

October GAs will be allowed to make Feral adopts/customs this month!

What's new

One new magicial trait! Back Spines!

Back Spines!
Spikes and/or bones that grow along the back/spine of a Sapsidian.

Feral subtype!

Feral Subtype (or Feral subspecies) has been a long requested sub type and will NOT be the only subtype for Sapsidians! Here's some things to note about them:

• You can apply the subtype to any MYO slot with the Feral Bacon item.
  • The Feral Bacon item will be stocked in shops next month. Costing 5000BS each.
  • Their will be a limit to this item to avoid getting overwhelmed with approves. This limit will be raised with time.
• Feral Saps are of equal IQ/intelligence as other Saps.
• Feral Saps ALWAYS have their front claws out.

October's prompt

Jackal-Jack o'lantern

Are they baking pumpkin pie? Eatting pumpkins? Carving pumpkins? Up to you!
