Server Update + Masquerade Extension
First things first: we are extending Masquerade until Wednesday. It will end Thursday morning at 12:01AM.
We know you have a lot to catch up on, item wise, so we're making it easier. We've increased the prizes for dancing, and decreased the time.
If you want to take a chance with someone new, we've added a :question: mystery dance :sparkles: feature. It'll pair you up with another user who is looking for dances, you will both get great prizes.
We are going to continue working on the servers, and hope that they keep improving over the next 24 hours. You can find a more detailed changelog here, that will automatically update.
Thank you for your patience, and I hope you're all staying home and safe :two-hearts:

Is the mystery dance link going to be added to the "Check out" section on the news page?
Also just putting this here since forums are wonky again....

Thank you for the update and extension! The mystery dance feature is fun; I like it. :0
Good luck with your continued work on the backend! I hope you’re all staying safe out there.

So we don't get to only receive leg warmers, but a bunch of other Retired items, it seems!

a lot has improved, but there are some parts that are almost worse than before... at least before, even if every page was timing out, clicking on a dance link rarely ever timed out. now the forum posts can enter limbo while loading, or load completely normally. dance links are constantly timing out, requiring a refresh, which might again time out the forum posts. sometimes i have to refresh 3, 4 times to get the posts to load AND the dance link to work. it's like, 1 step forward, 2 steps back.
it will be an immense relief to finally be done with this.

Thank you for the extension and the update! I hope you guys can get things fixed properly soon and that everyone is staying healthy.
This is the Masq that never ends~
yes it goes on and on my friends~
some people started dancin' here not knowin' what it was
and they'll continue dancin' here forever just because-

honestly, while the extra dance prizes are appreciated, I'd much rather a visible public apology on this clusterfuck. not on the server crashes, no. on the refusal to update the userbase at large until less than three hours left in the "extended" event. subeta is better than this, but just even a glance at the comments on the previous news post (which not a single staff EVER responded to, still) shows you just how much good will this entire fuck up has cost the site in user trust.
You just had an excellent dance with Siellby! Click here for the dance floor.
It was such a great dance, you've both been given 25 Cash Shop Credits!
!! yass

Anyone else not seen Boudewijn even once this Masq? Every other year I'd see him maybe every 20 dances or so, but this year I've danced at least dozens of times a day since day 1 of masq and literally haven't run into him even once... Not surprising, honestly, as masq has been an overall failure this year.
tried the mystery dance. Was fun got a Gold Bag of Steamworks Trinkets, way more trinkets than I would have got got dancing regularly. Of course maybe I was lucky and will feel differently as I use it more :).
Hey, the server log is really neat! And the new dance feature is working for me as well. Thanks for the updates and the peek behind the scenes :)
Is anyone else getting directed to branch.subeta.net with a page not found when they accept their dances?
appreciate the extra time and fun mystery dances, thanks guys!
If anyone still needs a dance partner ;)

Thank you for the extension. I've been pretty bummed out by all the lag and errors, since I still have a ton to buy, so I really appreciate the extra time.
T.T Thank you! That makes me feel like I still have just enough time that if I dance hard, I can actually do it.
It helps a lot especially with everything else in the world. Thanks for giving us a speck extra time to dance together!

Is there any chance of getting a free GA gift as well? I've lost out on about a week of my GA because of the lag and constant 502/503 errors, etc :'(

It seems like you can get random items from the Mystery Dance feature too! My dance partner and I have been given 
It's so much fun so far... well sure that's a cheap item in the User Shops but it's a retired/high-rarity item so I'm hopeful and excited to see what other items I'll get from this!

thanks for the extension, and OH MAN I am LOVING this mystery dance feature!! I hope that sticks around for future Masquerades, this is great.
Thanks for all the hard work, guys :)

But I'm actually not 100% sure if the csc from mystery dancing was awarded. I am not completely sure what my total was before but I don't think it went up, and the credit doesn't show up in purchase logs like bathhouse credits do. I'm writing down my total now so I remember just in case I receive that prize again and I can see if it did go up.
Thanks for the extension and the hard work! I like the mystery dance, but getting 22k sP is not as good as trinkets... And I can't open the forum messages to join in the dance with the user above :(
ugh thank u for the extension-extension!! i was bummed and now i'm way less bummed
also im glad even keith has trouble making emojis work bc i also constantly can't do emojis right
Mystery dancing... I like it. I know I can do both at once, but I like having to Pace myself so I can do other things. thank you and I hope we see this feature again next masq (but won't be mad if it isn't. This was to make up for all that server woes after all)
one thing, I seem to not be able to accept my former dance invites? it keeps saying I already accepted them and implying I'm trying to cheat. This is actually really sucking because I stack 10+ from the forums before going and accepting them all at once. and now I guess they're all gone.
thank you for the further extension and the mystery dance feature! really appreciate the response, as well as the live feed of site updates. site seems to be cooperating now at least... though I do hope you guys don't make such huge changes around event seasons in the future :') just my two cents...
You just had an excellent dance with Avalai! Click here for the dance floor.
It was such a great dance, you've both been given 50 Cash Shop Credits!
Ok, ok ok ok ok ok. I can dig this.

I absolutely hate how the whole thing of being able to refresh the accept link no longer works. But thanks, I guess?
Hey, if anyone needs trinkets at this point, hit me up. I have way too many now. XD;

Thank you! <3 I still can't see my avatar (haven't been able to see it since the wardrobe update) but I can dance and that's all I care about, haha.
