Special Shops List
We’ve made some changes to the Main Shops page! Instead of being listed as NPC shops, they’re now listed as Restocking Shops. Why? Because we’ve added a new tab to the top that includes Special Shops!
The Special Shops list includes holiday shops, shops that require different currencies, rotating item shops, event shops, and ‘other’ shops. Let us know if we’ve missed anything.

I like this, as a newbie I did not know some of these existed. Just bought two wishlist minions from Daras Darlings :)

I thought about the names issue some more last night.
I think keeping it similar to the currency page (with some tweaks) is the solution.
-Holiday & Seasonal Shops / Add Holiday & on currency page
-Call the 2nd category the same thing in both places.. I'm just not sure what that should be. 'Active' Shops sounds weird. Perhaps Year-Round Currency? Default Currency?
-Fine
-Fine
-Add Plot & on the currency page
And perhaps add the currency page ("these are also stored on your currency page.." or similar) to the 2nd section to cover all the bases.
Also Restocking shops collections/pets links (pets link possibly in foods section too, idk?)

As long as they aren't as vague as the current Subetapedia descriptions I'd be happy to see that.

@Mayonaka Rah wants to do a “history” page sort of thing in the Subetapedia in the future where we recount what happened in various events/plots so people can read up on what they’ve missed in the past, because in some cases a lot of crazy stuff happens. A little girl dying (Pirate vs Islanders), a new land being uncovered (Faded Memories), time travel (Masquerade), etc.

Thank you for responding so quickly. I often forget that the antique shop exists. Still, there was so much history in that event. It's kind of a shame that we won't get to revisit it.

@Mayonaka Nope! That’s why we have the Antique shop, though. To bring back old plot/event prizes. Ariel and I work on figuring out a good point to sP ratio so users can buy up things they missed (like for example I need quite a few things from the Reading drive for some pet treasures and I’m glad I can get them via sP). We’ve brought back a few achievement prizes via Crystal Shop in the past and I don’t think either of us oppose finding other ways to bring those types of prizes back.

Thank you so much for the new tab! It makes it so much easier to find the shops I need.
That being said, I've actually been wondering for some time now... Will there ever be a time, even a possibility in the far future, where old events or their items will be brought back anew? For instance, if the Masquerade Plot were "recreated" as it were, and played out again, allowing new and old members alike a fresh chance to earn old achievements and more points for that specific event shop? I ask this as someone who loved the Masquerade Plot more than anything else on Subeta, but also was one of the many who was not able to complete it due to school. It honestly pains me every time I see everything I'd missed out on in that event.

It's super handy. I like it.
Personal opinion though I hate the gray headers and have ever since the Main Shops page got updated.

This is great, I can remove some of my bookmarks. I hated trying to find the special shops when I needed them.

This is really great, I'd forgotten about some of these. No more wasted time looking for shop links when a holiday starts, it's all right there. Thank you!

Trying to buy from the five seven five also takes me to the special shops page, item not purchased. DX

Hey, tried to buy something from the Faded Memories shop and it keeps redirecting me to the Special Shop page. Haven't tried any of the other shops yet, but I thought I should say something.

So very shiny <3
I still kinda like "Special Currency" or maybe "Individual Currency" (although that kills some of the overlap for say, tokens) but still, those are very minor. Overall it's great!

WOO, there were some shops I had currency left from and I couldn't find the shops for them. This is great.

@THESOVEREIGN I'll rename the Event section Plot / Event, because that's what those items are. :)

Functionally it's nice, but it seems kinda awkward how it was determined if a shop was a event shop vs a "different currency shop" since there is a lot of overlap there.
