Morostide Trick-or-treating: Some updates!

Today has sure been a day, am I right? Full of tricks instead of sweet, sweet treats.

Thank you to everyone who has been letting us know about issues with trick-or-treating. As you might've noticed, we've had to bring ToTing up and down multiple times today.

:ghost: There was an issue with timers that have been fixed! Understand that choosing where you trick or treat or choosing to go with a random house is built on the same timer. The 5 minutes is for the random, though.

:ghost: At one point, some houses were giving out 'no item'. Which... rude! This has been fixed.

:ghost: Users are amazing. Y'all always do a thread tracking items and ... unfortunately we made quite a few users think they were crazy. Some items were popping up in multiple "house" groups. That was because anyone in houses 1, 10, 11, and 12 were getting pulled together because of that pesky '1'. This has also been fixed!

:jack_o_lantern: You can't change your house group, it's set in stone because we captured data from earlier in the month to sort y'all. I haven't seen anyone figure out the method yet, so here's another clue. Look to the pets! It's something to do with pets. :)

UPDATES TO COME IF NEEDED! <3

@Amber
Is it possible to adjust the new item ratio? @BoaConstrictor and I, both noticed the same thing. Older items go out a lot more than the newer items.

It’s working! :)

I’m still not getting treats at some houses :(

Sorry, I forgot to say thank you for fixing the trick-or-treating, and for the update!

So, if one figures out the houses, then they would know which houses give different prizes, and could choose where to trick or treat based on that information, if I am getting that right. I have no idea, but I always do random trick or treating anyway. I'm cool with the gamble.

If anyone trick or treated at my house and didn't get anything, even though it wasn't intended, I'm sorry.

Also, I love Alexander's costume. I thought what is he, he looks great, wearing a boa and a hat with flowers. Then I saw the stripes, and the book, and I was like, oh! =)

I love the people eater beanbag, wish they were a pet species, or minion XD
I love the theme of the items this year <3 Happy Morostide!

sorry to ping you @Amber - but I think ToT is broken again. Past three tries (one via profile, two via random) didn't give any item, just reset the timber. i.e. timer ran out, I refreshed, timer reset, no item / no ToT page.

You knock on Sydney'sDoor and get:
Item not found:
You have 0 hours 5 minutes and 0 seconds remaining until you can trick or treat again!
today between 2 hours 4 times now, sigh. I know, is fixed. maybe my account don't know that 🤥 thank you for your work

The random TOT is 5 minutes, the regular TOT is about 5-11 minutes. Trying to get 4 more rag dolls so using the list of who gives out what & then if I get them all I will switch to the random. Still need books from the patch. Good luck to everyone getting what you want.

Hmm. The distribution of users seems to be HEAVILY weighted towards one specific group. I thought the whole point of the grouping mechanic was supposed to eliminate this sort of thing?

Still not fixed

I am sad the TOT is on the same timer. I really hoped it could be like dancing, where the mystery dance is on a different timer than your choice.
I like being able to interact with my friends and do random people too.
Maybe it can be updated that way another year? :blush:
Came here to say this- I appreciate ToT a lot, thank you for setting up this holiday! I am also sad the random ToT is on the same timer. It kind of de-incentivzes using it, because don't you get more if you're ToT from someone also ToT you? So it's better to go in the forums, especially if we're short on time. Hopefully in the future this can be changed! Loving the new items as usual, the art is just beautiful.

good morostide, all ! tot is officially up !!! c:

Ok, so most people fall into around 4 groups with all their pets. Those few in groups 1-4 are going to be hammered! LOL

I'm unfortunately still getting the "item not found" thing, too. It's only happened twice for me, though!
AsconaFox
You knock on cr0ssmyheart's Door and get:
Item not found:
You have 0 hours 5 minutes and 0 seconds remaining until you can trick or treat again!

Still having issues i guess. I also selected random ToT so I guess ill find someone next time.

@Spatial It's not ideal, but you can see how many pets a user has via their battle stats page.

Thanks for the fixes <3 I don't get the pets hint, but I'm dense, so...if anyone gets it, ping please?

I appreciate you guys keeping us updated on the craziness. It would not be subeta without some glitches! <3

Is it the earliest or latest date that one of your pets was made?

I was wondering what would happen if it was something that could be changed. You really planned ahead with that.

The "Rude" joke made me cackle!
Thank you so much for your hard work <3

Thanks for you all you do! Even though the start was chaotic, I had a lot of fun :P

Active pet's birth or adopted month? If it's set and unchangeable, because the data was captured earlier in the month, and it creates 12 houses...? 🤔

(I'm not sure what else would divide pets into 12 categories. I'm pretty sure we have more than 12 colors and species.)

Or... well. According to SubetaLodge, we currently have 36 colors, so conceivably ToT group one could have had an active pet in colors A, B, and C; ToT group two could have been colors X, Y, and Z, etc. I dunno. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

...No idea what that would mean for newly-created accounts, though?

Thanks guys!

@Amber can we have a “set an alert” for tp/egging pretty pretty please with a cherry blubbo on top :3

Is there a way to see other people's pets if they have them turned off on their profiles?
Hunger
Thank you! I was wondering if I'd lost my mind, glad it's fixed now!
