Change of Plans!
As some of you may have read, the achievements associated with the mini gelatins were not recording the win counts correctly. A programmer looked into it and determined that it was not an easy fix and would take time to solve.
After weighing our options, we decided it was best to cancel the remainder of the gelatin war. Instead, we will be trying something new! This week, an assortment of opponents -- some old foes, and some new faces -- will appear to challenge you in the BC. Stay tuned!

I didn't have trouble but I didn't fight enough to get to another tier. At least I got some in though.

I was really looking forward to the mini gelatins. I hope they can return later on :). I didn't have any problems with my achievement for them but I'm sorry to here others were having problems with it. On the other hand the new battle opponents have me curious. I hope Calvin Blackmoon will be an opponent for all the times he he tormented us with the site is down page while questing, ect ^_^.

Count me intrigued! I can never be bothered with grinding away at Gelatins, but there's plenty of opponents I missed fighting in the past that I'll be quite happy to have another shot at.

Boo. :( Hopefully these new and old opponents are easy enough for a battle nub like me to beat! :P

ooh I hope some old plot challengers come back (and maybe we can still get the achievements for beating them? <-- wishful thinking)

Will there still be a future gelatin war this year? Or we just completely skipping this years jelly-battling event? :(

Bye bye gellies. I only managed to get to 25 before I got bored. Heh. New (and old) challengers can be fun, though I hope there's some I can handle. I've only really gotten into battling these past few months.

I'm hoping some older challengers come back from older plots...my pet was so weak then...would be nice to have a second chance...

I am hopefully that there is a nice array of challengers for both the young and old pets. I despise seeing an overload of challengers only for the high end pets.

My first thought was "But I was finally being productive with them :("
Then I saw old opponents. And then I was overjoyed.

@dunedainsith Pssh, that's nothing. I've got over 400 hundred books!!!!
For me, although the prizes are great, the gelatin war is just a big time waster. I"m excited to finally get a chance to battle enemies that came out before my pet was around, even if I can only beat easy, medium, and a few hard enemies.

Better go and train up my battle pet more! Hope everything will get fixed and we can have the war in the future. Can't wait to see the old and new opponents.

That is a super horrible shame about the gelatins since I was totally ready for the lower tiers to die en masse this time....
but ma I cannot express how friggun happy I am that you guys are cancelling the whole thing since it's not an easy fix and doing something else. If it's buggy, what else can you do? So thanks :)

Aww at the achievements not working properly, but it's better to cancel the Gelatins now, than continue them and find people get really annoyed at the achievement count not adding up correctly....
It's probably wishful thinking, but I would love it if Maleria was one of the old foes returning this week 0:)

YAY! :3 I hope it won't be waves with an actual count though. :c Those stress me out with the omg will I be on to fight them because I'm on European time sort of thoughts. |D The only reason I was on to fight the jellies last night was because the movie I picked was bad lol.

No point in running an event if the most fun part for alot of people does not work properly, so I think it was a good desicion to just cancel it for now. Also the chance to fight some old opponets instead sounds very promising!

Awww, so sad I wanted a Gelatin War. The first wave recorded my wins correctly. Very strange thing.

Awww, I was hoping for an Essence and I was looking forward to the Wizard. Oh well, I think I'll just ship my excitement over to the old opponents, will be interesting to see which of them will make a return and how my chances are now. :)

Like Blip said, I'm excited to see what's in store for us but I'm crossing my fingers I'll still get a chance to get some more hits on the Gelatin Golem :)

Cool with this, but hoping for another gelatin war in the near future? Never really got a chance to participate in anything higher than the minis before, was looking forward to the other waves now that I actually have a pet with good training and weapons.

Well that svcks =/ I usually love saying this: That's right, I love it when I'm right. BUT in this case... That's right, I sometimes hate it when I'm right. -_-
Here's to hoping everything on this new adventure goes according to plan. maybe it's a priority .

I look forward to boss fights the most, so hopefully there's a new or returning one in place of hydragellos? :l *fingers crossed*

Old foes? Old foes!
Another one of our Christmas Wishes fulfilled? Excitement and anticipation rising!
As long as the fights from last night counted? - I would not have had time for 1300 Gellies this week, anyway.

Okay, new/old opponents this week, and hopefully gelatins later this year instead? Sounds awesome to me! I hope the old faces include some opponents I wasn't strong enough to fight the first time they were here.
(I got my slayer two years ago, and a core last year, so I'm not as down about postponing the gellies as I would otherwise be, heh ^_^; )

Aw, I missed the opportunity to beat up on a few jellies because I was at a retreat! Glad to hear there may be another gelatin war later on in the year though. Plus I'm super stoked to see which opponents will make another appearance!

Boo this sucks, but I was only at 300 anyway and very much doubt I would have got to 2500 :P
Can't wait to see what else you guys have up your sleeves! ^_^

Error, Error! The SQLs are Here! Invasion Postponed Until Further Notice.
The battle admins and programmers are trying to fix the problem as best as they can, but to no avail. Rumors had it that the following exchange occured shortly before the achievement outage.
"All Your War are Belong to Us.
What You Say!"
Battlers swear revenge for their stolen invasion.

JujuPi, that's a lot of coding. Something can go wrong that could mess it up entirely. It's not their fault. Instead of making us wait for them to fix it, they want to bring old challengers back. This seems like a great idea and a very well thought solution for the problem. Don't you think they are great!?

in that case, i'll take the optimistic route and be sure to train hard in hopes of seeing the jellies again ;) hopefully the next time they show up, i'll be strong enough to take on the gelatin wizard.

We hope to have a gelatin war later this year! That all depends on if and when that achievement issue is fixed.

as long as we get them sometime this year it doesn't bother me too much I suppose. I'd rather fight some old/new opponents than a mini gelly onslaught tbh

Oh man. I was going to go all out against the Hydragellos, I was so excited about it. Oh well, hopefully I'll be able to fight some guys that we weren't strong enough to beat earlier!

So, this means we are not going to have the gelatin war later this year?
Could be nice if we get the gelatin war around last year.

will we be seeing the gelatins coming back later in the year at some point, or is this pretty much it for 2013? because if it was between having them show up at a very inopportune week in october or not seeing jellies until '14, then i'd definitely choose fighting jellies between midterms :P
in either case, i'm very excited to see what else is coming up :)

We're just as disappointed as you guys are! I was looking forward to earning my maniacal essence this year. But I think you'll enjoy the replacement event. :)
