Fireside + Black Friday Information

Hello Sunshine Sticker
Here are a few updates about Fireside and Black Friday.

Black Friday will not be starting today. We want to get Fireside out first, and there were a few issues with adding items over the past few days. You might’ve seen an item or two Fireside related pop up in the Item Directory the other night and then disappear, that was because I made them 'staff' rarity after realizing things weren't adding correctly. We’ve pushed a lot of changes, and tested with those delicious forum shop items, so I feel confident that things won’t break for y’all.

What’s that mean for start dates?

Black Friday will start THIS MONDAY. It will end on Monday December 9th. Everything from the previous post about Black Friday, like retirements and what isn’t on sale, are still correct.

Fireside will start tomorrow! You might see items added around midnight tonight, but the event itself will begin during the day tomorrow. Tomorrow’s news post starting Fireside will have all the information you’ll need about the holiday this year (end dates, how to unlock that gosh darn bonfire thief challenger, etc).

We’re truly sorry that everything has been delayed more so than usual. Y’all have been very patient with us and we appreciate it. <3

Reminder that Luminaire will not be changed at all with Fireside running into December. You will still get 31 days of gifts from Melody and enjoy the Luminaire festivities… while also enjoying a nice bonfire.

Nooooo! lol I was so excited I could hardly sleep and will now have the same experience on Sunday-Monday and all because I am anxiously waiting for BF new items! lol (tries to store up extra sleep from other days)

At any rate, I am still super excited and waiting sooo patiently, but with so much excitement it hurts!

(-looks for fireside to start with high anticipation-)

@Johnny We planned on having Fireside first, so artists got a lot of their art uploaded for Fireside first. And trust me, it was insane. There were issues on the backend for uploading art, not just adding items. So a lot of the Black Friday things are in the process of getting uploaded still.
