Reward shops have opened for the Pirates and Islanders who fought in the Omen Islands War on Delphi's coast! Although the crew of The Freyalise is still on their journey to bring the girls home to safety and the Islanders are heading to their home, each faction has sent a liaison ahead to thank their friends for the efforts put forth in fighting for their cause. Make sure you stop by to collect your prizes soon, as the authorities in Delphi have only authorized these shops to be open for a short time.

Keith please leave the shop open for a bit. I am visiting Nicaragua for the week and I can´t get certain sites to load to see what I want to do with my points so please leave it open for a few weeks. Thanks.

i always thought the winning team got a prize as well as shop thing too for the points...but hey i am still a newbie here...reaching my 1 year mark on subeta and all...it was hard to get the 112 pts i got in the RS war since i did it between university courses work and really have not much choices in the shop...i was on the Pirates team...oh well...sad to say it kinda makes me feel like the time i spent catching restocks to get rarity items might have been a waste for me...beautiful designs of the prizes in the Pirates shop...just wish i had the RS pts to get the really pretty ones like the plushies...you designers did great on those prizes to do them up <3
thanks again subeta artists!!! I thought I was restocking for the Islanders and for the glory...(oh well; we lost- but only by a bit) Prizes!?! What a wonderful surprise! Is the glass half empty or is it half full??? Stop being so critical; when you start up your own site you can have it your way- until then just say 'thank you' <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />

So much better than the last Restock War! Last time I only got a meager Toy that I couldn't even sell (To the Day). This Year. gg
Thanks!
Thanks!
I'm disappointed with the Islander Prizes.
The Pirate ones have a much larger range of types of items. The Islander ones are pretty much all clothes with a couple of minions thrown in.

Oh man! So much awesome stuff! If only I'd gotten more RS points... <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_confused.gif" border="0" />
Aw mann the plushies are MUST-HAVE. But I could only afford one.. I hope they aren't too inflated later on. :/
Does anyone have suggestions for what I should get, by the way? <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" /> I'm a pirate, and I'm still stuck at what I want. |D
Obliterate and angelembryo, I agree with you two perfectly. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" />
I realize there is a matter of different opinions to those who think otherwise about my latest posts. That's perfectly fine, it is your opinion and yours alone. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" /> I don't, however, think that either side of this argument needs to continue fretting over virtual items and virtual money and virtual scores. This is a game that was meant to be enjoyable. And I've certainly enjoyed it as such. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" />
I'm sorry to anyone who didn't, really. On either side. Better luck in future Restocking Wars? At least in the future you'll have a chance to train your pet. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" /> <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />

Hmm, new items is cool. I'm wondering why the first announcement stressed the short-duration of the shop being open. (And considering at times, there've been Trivia that were up for less than eight hours...) Honestly, that could have been phrased just a WEE bit better.

well the pirates only have the buccaneer shirts that i like the rest i either can't afford or dont need. but i like the grass skirts and the blue hibiscus on islander side
@Joyce, true, but it's up to the users whether they want to spend the 20 bucks or not. And the cash shop is separate from the RS war shop, so my point stands! =P
Obliterate -- I totally agree <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" /> Thanks for summing up my thoughts on this one!
(I still wish I could have seen the top RSers! I wonder how many points they got through restocking? Oh well Lol.. not a big deal!)
(I still wish I could have seen the top RSers! I wonder how many points they got through restocking? Oh well Lol.. not a big deal!)
I have to admit, I'm kind of amused by the complaints from people who blew their last few points on 1 RSP items before the announcement of future cheap items came along, thinking they had to buy fast because the shops are threatening to close soon. Guys, that doesn't mean the shops will close in like... an hour. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" /> Staff knows by now that the users here represent many different time zones and hours of availability. They would leave the shops open for AT LEAST a couple days. I hate to say it, but if you emptied your pockets on grass skirts and monkey blood, it's kinda your own fault for being overly hasty.
I also have no problem with the items being insanely expensive. In previous RS wars, people only got a few prizes based on how they did; this is just the same, except you get to CHOOSE those few prizes. We weren't meant to be able to afford ALL of them.
What I do have a problem with is the diversity among the items in the two shops. The Pirates get books, minions, weapons, plushies, and wearables in pretty even distribution... while the Islanders get the same few wearables over and over again in different colors, a couple of minions and weak weapons, and a <i>postcard</i>? I know the Pirates won, but that kind of gap makes it feel like the Islanders didn't even come close or put up a fight worthy of being recognized. :
My suggestion would have been to make the distribution of item types in the two shops relatively equal, but IN ADDITION to that, send all the Pirates one extra collectible item, regardless of scores, as their prize for winning.
I hope this came across as constructive criticism, because that's what I was aiming for.

Alright, I'm starting to get sick of the complaining.
Alright...I know people are going to keep complaining, but I really wanted to vent a little
- If you say "I'm not good at restocking or battling" or "I didn't have much time" that doesn't justify asking for lower prices. If anything, it should just mean that this event wasn't for you. There are plenty of other events throughout the year that you can participate in, and its nice to have some designed for specific skill sets. Time is a factor for everyone, so you're not the only person who has to worry about how much time they can spend here. Many people probably had less time than you, its what they did with that time that counts. You may have been restocking your heart out, but if you aren't an experienced restocker or don't have a fast computer, you're not going to do as well. That's true for restocking at any other time of the year. One week out of that year when an event is made for restockers and battlers means that people who put a lot of effort into becoming good restockers and battlers are going to do better.
- Prices. If all the items were cheap, they'd be worthless. Part of making the event worthwhile is having people who do particularly well get more. Prices are going to be high in order to guarantee that. Having an item out reach usually makes someone want it more, so accept that some items are going to be out of reach for everyone except the top 10-15 people.
- Item selection. Most people are going to have a problem with this because they want specific things. Some Pirates want more wearables and are envious of the Islanders, while some Islanders want more Books and Plushies and are jealous of the Pirates. That's just how its going to be with a split prize shop. I'm sure there are plenty of people on the Advertising board who'd be willing to trade point for point with a member of the opposite team, so its not like you can never get the items.
- Battlers having an advantage over restockers. I wasn't happy with this one, but I honestly understand this one. This event wasn't just for restockers, and it wasn't the official RS war. Battlers spend much more time training pets, much more on weapons, so its nice that they can get rewarded for that once in a while. Restockers get Sp all year round, but when a battler maxes out an opponent there isn't much they can do. Let them have their time.

Well, they said they are coming out with more cheaper prizes. So don't worry <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
Great items. I'm waiting for the lower priced items. I only have 26 points. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />

=D Huzzah! My first RS war and I got at least 101 points. =3 So what if I can't get a lot? Now I have a personal goal for next RS war. Oh,oh,oh! Staffers, will we be doing this again next year? I really hope so. =D I totally want to rub my friends' faces in the dirt again. ^^; Even if I love them to smithereens! =O Well, if we do, do this again, next time I'll have to work up at least 1000 points. >=D My pet is going to have to train hard this year -giggles-
Items are pretty (and yes thankful we have prizes to choose from), no doubt about that. However, I don't think I'll be doing much for the next restock war if the prices are going to be this high then too.
The items I like are from the other side and I'm not going to be spending my sp on overpriced items I could have gotten if I choose that side. Meh, I'm letting my points rot unless there's something interesting put in at a lower price.
I am glad this part's over and I could a least drool over the prizes. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_happy.gif" border="0" />

C'mon, guys, it could be worse. You could have no legs! Think of all the people out there with no legs! In fact, maybe some of you DO have no legs!
But in all seriousness, lighten up, cause if the prices in a virtual store involving virtual money are a pressing enough problem for you to rant about it, your life's gotta be pretty good <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />

Pbft if I had known Monkey Blood was all I could afford I would have just rsed 1 item and quit. I think the prizes are ridiculously priced. How many points did the /average/ user get? 300? 500? I doubt it's over 2000. -sighs at Ambil-

Ur rite.
Ur rite.
The prizes are really neat..but also really expensive. I thought I did really good for my first RS War...<img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />
Aww I wish they would've made that announcement earlier about putting more lesser point items <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" /> I've spent mine already.
Some people can't RS real well either. I only got 32 points and couldn't get any higher cuz I couldn't half remember any items and when I did find a list the site was down through most of it when I needed it, and the fact that I was a bit slow to get any of the items. So to me it was kinda pointless. Never got that high of points and theres not any items there that I can get. Its kinda disappointing.

Most people complaining didn't just sit on their butt and expect to have super great prizes. Just a little more variety.

And they really feel the love from our $$.
We had a whole forum to discuss the plot, and lots of people posted there to discuss it, and had fun. This, however, is a news post about the ITEMS BEING AVAILABLE IN RS WAR SHOPS. So if somebody has a complaint or something to say about the ITEMS AVAILABLE IN RS WAR SHOPS then this is the perfect place to say it, don't you think?
Also, I love the artwork on these items! That wasn't the focus of a single complaint as far as I can see. What IS unfortunate is that I can't <i>enjoy</i> all of the wonderful items the artists made because THEY'RE SO FREAKING EXPENSIVE <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/smiley_xface.gif" border="0" />

Wow - apparently you had to devote your life to the war to get anything at all. I suppose the only free time I had wasn't good enough to be rewarded so next year I won't even bother.

I do like the items, but the prices are way too high. I restocked as much as I could and can still barely afford any of the items. I don't battle, and it seems a bit unfair that people who do battle had such a huge advantage for gaining points.
Pardon me for saying so, but what a rip-off <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" /> I have 25k points and which while that isn't much in comparison to some it took a lot of time and all I get for my trouble is a bunch of junk items (grass skirts? really?). There should have been a 25k (or 30k or 35k) item for those of us who have real-world jobs and simply didn't have the time to sit and endlessly click through battles. I'm extremely disappointed. I'm sitting the next one out.

Uh. By the way. If I offended anyone, I seriously didn't mean to. Apologies in advance. Sorry guys. <3 You know I love you all.

i'm a little depressed right now. i didn't have the time or points to spend hours only to earn 4 or 5 points restocking or equipping my pets to battle. I'd love to know what the pirates prizes are because i'm not trilled with the islanders. plus, i only earn 4 points while on a wizard quest. <img src="http://images.subeta.net/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" />
