Even though it's time to put away the party hats now that the holidays are over, why not get some plushie versions to keep the festivities to going without looking like the oddball you really are.
Available only at the Holiday Shop.

Hi everyone, happy 2010!
Subeta will be down beginning 1:30 am tonight, as our servers are being moved to a new location within the data center. I guess they got tired of their old place.
Actually, space was getting pretty tight in our old location, so this move ensures we'll have room to grow should we need it.
They've asked for a 4 hour window to perform the procedure, but I don't think it will take that long.
The site will likely be totally offline during the move, and I'll be posting updates via our Twitter page so you can be the first to know when we're back.

I know we've had a lot of planned midnight downtime recently, but it's Monday night and we have some maintenance that needs doing, including a resync of our database servers.
So we'll be taking the site offline around 1 am eastern time. I don't expect things will take very long, less than an hour hopefully.
Thank you for being patient with us! Having a regular time when we take the site offline and do maintenance helps us stay ahead of potential problems and makes necessary things like backups a lot more straightforward.

A new species has been discovered in the frigid temperatures of the Arctic Frost region. After observing its playful personality for some time, researchers have decided to call this species the jollin. They are remarkably easy to tame and eager to please their owners, making them excellent pets for Subetans. Why not adopt one today?
Posted by Luxe at 11:36 am | Comments (451)
Haven't managed to get a jollin yet? Perhaps these new plushies from the Plushie Parlour will satisfy you enough for now.
Posted by Amber at 02:11 pm | Comments (41)
It looks like those researchers were correct! Jollins are suited to the cold weather of Arctic Frost!

Ever feel like 3 layers just isn't enough? Do you have the urge to layer as many translucent leggings as possible? Well, the Cash Shop has a new item in stock for 100CSC!
Ooh La Layers will allow you to increase any layer by 1 spot, for a maximum of 3 slots per layer. For example, you can add 3 additional background slots, for a total of 6 if you have a GA.
The slots created with Ooh La Layers expire after 31 days.

Hi everyone! Tonight during our regularly scheduled maintenance, the data center will be tying up some loose ends from our move to a more spacious location. This includes a reboot of our firewall for a firmware upgrade.
This means that the site will be offline briefly around 1:30 am Subeta time. This should only last a few minutes, and should be the only downtime for tonight!
Thanks for being patient, and see you on the other side!

I just want to remind everyone that posting the answers to, or asking for the answer to, the trivia is against the rules.
If we find you posting on Yahoo! Answers, or another site, we will freeze your account.
All trivia questions are findable on the site with just a little bit of searching, there is no reason to cheat ;).

Just a quick notice, today Mozilla released Firefox 3.6, which is a major improvement over the current version (3.5).
It increases speed by 20%, and has javascript optimizations. That means that areas of the site that are heavy in javascript, including the wardrobe, will likely be more responsive for you.
Those you using Firefox 3.5 (or a lower version), I suggest you upgrade to the newest version :).

Get Mugged!
Subetabucks has been having a tough time during the rough economy, and had to sell it's business. Luckily someone was nearby to snatch up the prime real estate and opened a new coffee shop, Get Mugged!
All items branded with the Subetabucks logo have been retired, and tons of new items have been introduced into the shop.

Oh, dear. Have you overindulged in highly caffeinated goods and sugary pastries from Get Mugged? You're seeing winged, angelic pets, aren't you? Yeah, I saw a hikei and hipottu after about nine espressos, too.

To be serious for a moment, something tragic happened recently in Haiti. I'm not going to go into details because if you've turned on a television or listened to the radio in the past week, you've heard the heartbreaking stories of children trapped under rubble for 6 days, or mothers lifting stones with their bare hands trying to find their babies.
I know that right now, no one has much to spare. If you have anything, there are multiple charities that will put your money to the best possible use in Haiti, helping people who need it right now.
The bird above is a new Free Gift.

We're having some issues with one of our web servers, which happens to host the images share for the site. We've contacted our hosting provider and they've begun attempting to resolve the problem.
I'm leaving Subeta up because it can't really hurt anything, but the site might behave strangely in the meantime, so don't be alarmed.
Thanks,
Alex

All Clear: Subeta should be functioning normally!
If you hadn't noticed earlier, one of our web servers suffered a crash of its disk array around midnight Subeta time, which happened to hold images for all of Subeta. Thus, the site has been offline while our datacenter repaired the problem.
For a while, we were running on only 2 of 3 servers, which was causing intermittent issues with people and their cached DNS. Now, the 3rd server is back online, and everything should be golden.
Thanks to everyone for being patient with us this past night while we worked to get the site back up!

Have you come across an awesome pet profile, that has the perfect name, the perfect layout, and the treasure chest to match?
Now when you browse pet profiles there is a link to nominate a pet for the Pet Spotlight! You cannot nominate your own pets.
The criteria that we will be using for winners include:
1. Aesthetically pleasing profile
2. Well thought out story
3. Appropriate treasure chest
4. Appropriate minion
You will be alerted if your pet wins the Pet Spotlight. It will also get a notice on its profile saying that it has won the spotlight.

New Year, New Fashion! The Subeautique has to keep up with the latest trends, and to make room has retired the following sets:
iNKorporated After Five, ZombieCrossing Moldy Tangerine, Junko Ensnared, InClover Ribboned, Ethereal Nymph, Misery Lotus Anti, Sougara Yellowjack, Citrus Charms Lime, The Court Jesters Raving Mad, Immortal Eternal, Misery Lotus Skankpop, Hazel Heartstring, Rainyday Verdure, MayQ Venom
Not a new designer, but one of the most popular at the Subeautique, Rainyday has unleashed her newest set, Light, into the world of fashion!
Another new designer, Argo, wants to make sure whether you plan on breaking into your ex-boyfriend's house to switch out his shampoo for hair remover or you just want to go to the mall, in their new Blackout line you'll look great either way.
Lililace is back with its third line, DeKonstrukted.
All of these pieces and more can be found in the Subeautique, for those of you with enough sP to buy a jet with your face on it.
As for the retired sets, if you don't have any of these pieces, there is always a chance it'll pop up in the Gift of Fashions Past!

It wouldn't be a new feature on Subeta, if there weren't a few bumps in the road! I'm sure you've all noticed that tonight (and yesterday night!) we had a pet win that came from a user that already won.
First, let me explain how the Pet Spotlight works, in a little more depth. You nominate your friends pet, and then we (the staff) have a huge list of pets that have been nominated (seriously, 500+ pets) and we accept/deny those pets.
After a pet is accepted, it goes into a queue. As of this posting, we've got 75 pets accepted into the queue.
Every night, one of the pets will be selected randomly from the queue, to win. The problem is, that some people have multiple pets that are nominated, and entered into the queue, because all (or most) of their pets are good, and quality enough to win the Pet Spotlight.
Tonight I've added in some extra protection to the script that runs nightly, to prevent this from happening. There is a 14 day limit between wins for any user, who wins the pet spotlight.
Sorry for the confusion, I hope all of you are busy working on your pets now so they can win the spotlight next ;)!
