Coming Soon to the Antique Shop: Reading Drive Prizes

A big shipment is coming to the Antique Shop soon! On October 1st all of the Reading Drive prizes will be added to the Antique Shop. Don\'t worry, the prices will be much more reasonable than those pricy pirate and expensive island items were.

You will have until 11:59pm on September 30th to spend your Reading Drive points. However, this time you will not be able to cash out remaining points after the conversion. So spend your points now, or they\'ll be gone forever!

If you have any remaining pirate or islander points to convert, you\'ll also need to do this by September 30th, as this option will disappear and any remaining points will be deleted then, too.

I really want some of the truth serum for Hannibal Fester and I will always read to HRH whether there is a drive or not, because I really want her to read every book on Subeta eventually.

manipulation 09/22/15 8:22 am

i think i will stop participating in site events if you can buy everything later on ^^

dotSei 09/22/15 8:19 am

So i'll FINALLY maybe be able to afford the battle items I was after? -sparkles-

remus 09/22/15 8:12 am

This makes me so happy, Reading Drive prizes are my favourite and I never had too many points to buy them. ;__; <3

omg_carrie 09/22/15 7:59 am

YESSSS THANK YOU

Luka 09/22/15 7:58 am

Can we please know what the prices will be?

Hamda 09/22/15 7:47 am

our drive this year earned have you 302 point(s)

guess I should spurge then, it's a nice move though since the drive was retired.

Extract 09/22/15 7:35 am

67 points left for me. I guess I better spend them ;)

Balloon 09/22/15 7:28 am

Yay! I've been eyeing a bunch of those items â™¥ And wow at the complaints... OXo

probabilistic 09/22/15 7:26 am

So many plushies I need in there! Thank you!!

Raggy 09/22/15 7:21 am

Excellent, theres some great stuff in that shop,thanks.

far 09/22/15 7:17 am

Hell yeah! I'm super happy rn.

Paradise 09/22/15 6:51 am

Same complaint here, I don't know what to spend my points on if the pricing will be different :(

MurDerWolf 09/22/15 6:35 am

I would rather know the prices first then spending my points on something that may not be worth it at all since it will be 'given away' compared to the effort/sP it took to get the points

Judin 09/22/15 5:24 am

This is awesome! :D

dainty 09/22/15 5:17 am

I have been waiting for this for soooo long.

Separatist 09/22/15 5:03 am

This makes me happy! Was never able to enter the reading drive and all.

pumpkins 09/22/15 4:42 am

I feel like this is really short notice to use/sell our RD things/points, it's not exactly easy deciding where to use 1000+ points, and it doesn't help that the suggestion is pricing will be a LOT lower? u__u;;

Quidam 09/22/15 3:58 am

...great, I totally don't know what to spend my points on. Just as always.

Katt 09/22/15 3:54 am

I assume so, considering that your contributions to our drive this year earned have you 0 point(s)

Already done xD and ty ty guys i need those other books

ScissorCrow 09/22/15 3:43 am

So sad I wasn't a member of Subeta when this event happened :( I love all the literary references.

Assea 09/22/15 3:02 am

So there is never going to be a reading drive anymore? I really liked those events. Where you had to work for your prizes and points. Now you just need to follow the plot :(

Tribunal 09/22/15 3:00 am

@Speiro

I'm not positive, but I feel like I have more points than I would have gotten in one drive. I know there was some discussion before the last drive, but it may have been about books, not points, resetting.

Regardless, the points resetting or not is a small part of it. The RD being a long time ago is more of a reason to be concerned about less active users, not less. And the Pirate/Islander war was even longer ago and it was treated with more care.

Poet 09/22/15 2:59 am

I'm still mad I lost all of my first RD points. Any discounts for those of us who didn't get to spend the first lot in time?

TheGapingMawOfDoom 09/22/15 2:57 am

It'll be interesting to see the prices for the weapons :)

five_507 09/22/15 2:44 am

Goddamn yes! I'm a bit sad there won't be any Reading Drive anymore, but having the items in a sp shop: yeaaahhhhh

Jaws 09/22/15 2:31 am

Awesome! I can't wait for all the different prize shop loot (RD and otherwise) to be added to the Antique Shop. So much to buy! :)

Euphoria 09/22/15 1:55 am

"Don't worry, the prices will be much more reasonable than those pricy pirate and expensive island items were."

So glad to see that staff can recognize the fact that the pirate/island wears were priced unreasonably...

Ziva 09/22/15 1:53 am

So... We will never have a reading drive again?

Speiro 09/22/15 1:52 am

Does anyone know if the Malice achievement still works? I might just dump all my points into that, but I'd hate to find out it's been retired.

kimcl91 09/22/15 1:51 am

Yup everything added up fine! I guess the counter just messed up a little and corrected itself when I refreshed the page ^u^

Speiro 09/22/15 1:47 am

Quote by @Tribunal:

They've had time, yes, but when it's something like this that encourages saving because it's the same currency every time that argument is a lot less valid.

I thought they cleared RD points before starting the new RD? So they didn't carry over.

kimcl91 09/22/15 1:45 am

Something is wrong with the system cause I had 9 points left and about the twit sticker, cost me 1 point. Now I have zero points. I should have 8 left.
I should go and add up everything I about now and see if I am missing more points with this glitch..

SilveredFox 09/22/15 1:44 am

Apparently it did glitch but went through. Still concerning to read when clicking things! Especially soon to be done away with rare things that you can't regain your points for and only have so many days to have things sorted out if there is a problem. Glad it went through though

SilveredFox 09/22/15 1:43 am

Well I TRIED to spend my one point >.>

"Fatal error: Call to a member function update() on a non-object in /www/subeta.net/games/reading_prizes.php on line 38" not really sure what to do about that or was I wrong that I have a point left to spend? It's been ages but it does say I gained 1 point so I had been hoping. Not sure if it's a glitch or my own misreading ^^;

Chrysariel 09/22/15 1:42 am

Well, I hope its a good thing... maybe I'll actually be able to get something.

penelope 09/22/15 1:29 am

I shudder to think of what's in store for Morostide and Luminaire. :C

Kevin 09/22/15 1:27 am

@Quo
it's an attempt to appeal to everyone by appealing to no one in particular too much.

penelope 09/22/15 1:26 am

I feel like all of the things about holidays and events on Subeta that I loved the
most have been completely demolished and replaced with extremely sub par alternatives.

kimcl91 09/22/15 1:16 am

Yayyy!!! So happy. I totally forgot about that shop. I still have points! 57 to be exact. But hey I can get some cheap items still :p

Megu 09/22/15 1:12 am

So much yes. ;.;

Magician 09/22/15 1:09 am

I dunno if I like that prize shop. I'm going through all those old prizes and I'm experiencing a lot of...feels.

#rightinthechildhood

Straywillow 09/22/15 1:05 am

I had forgotten all about the antique shop.. now I remember why, I'm not rich :)

Glint 09/22/15 12:58 am

I saw the note about pricing, and I hope these will indeed be affordable. I was happy to see the Pirate/Islanders stuff rereleased, but then I saw the 75,000,0000 SP price tag for a generic little flower to put on your head. NOPE.

indieOddity 09/22/15 12:56 am

will the island/pirate items still be in the shop when the RD items are added?

Nicholas 09/22/15 12:52 am

Good to hear about the newsletter. ^_^
Also, I'm fairly certain I know the answer to this question, but is there any chance of the Thunderball ending up in the shop?

Kellijuana 09/22/15 12:47 am

AH! I've been dreading this so badly!! D: lol I have just enough points for one awesome weapon, or a bunch of wearables and books... CHOICES! They ruin me!

Zelor 09/22/15 12:37 am

Fantastic, I've been waiting for this. I need to start saving sp though...

I'm hoping for EPICon items next. Some of my favorite items on the site are from the EPICon events.

Eileen 09/22/15 12:35 am

I don't remember if I converted my pirate points to sp or not, and retired currencies are no longer on the vault page. Is there a way I can check whether or not I have already converted mine?

Also, thanks for the heads up on the reading drive points. Now comes the hard part: decisions.

Amber STAFF 09/22/15 12:34 am

@Mister They will be on a ratio! :)
