Masquerade 2022 is HERE!

Are y'all ready to dance? The Annual Masquerade Ball has officially begun. Make sure to stay hydrated because the dance floor will be open until 11:59pm on June 12. The Masquerade Forums will close on June 17.

Use the following code in your status and other places to get friends (and strangers) to share a dance with you!

Code:

[dance=USERNAME]

Want a little more surprise in your dancing? Try the Mystery Dance feature! Note: Mystery Dancing has its own timer separate from dancing on the forums/chosen user/etc. So you can do a mystery dance and then go dance on the forums right after!

Before you step on the dance floor, make sure you are wearing a mask. You can grab one from Migrating Masks. There are no new masks this year but quite a few old masks have been unretired! Note: any item with the word 'mask' in the name should work for dancing, rarity doesn't matter.

While dancing, you have the chance at getting Steamworks Trinkets or Lounge Trinkets. The Lounge Trinkets can be spent on delicious foods and drinks at the Libertine Lounge while Steamworks Trinkets can be spent for all sorts of goodies at the Steamworks Menagerie. This is the only wave of items for both shops, enjoy!

Keep an eye out for Boudewijn while you dance. If you manage to win a duel with him, he’ll give you a bag of trinkets. He won’t actually kill you in a duel, so no worries there!

Oh, and just a reminder! You have a chance of unlocking the Dancing Steamwork Style achievement when using the Mystery Dance feature. This achievement will give you the rad Steamwork Masquerade avatar border. When you dance with people you choose (like friends, on threads, etc), you have the chance to unlock the achievement Dancing Rave Style which will give you the bright Rave Masquerade avatar border. These were added last year and are back for you to get this year!

Anyone have the link to the invite page where you accept/decline dance invitations? Lost it, gotta make sure I haven't missed accepting any...

Boudewijn is in hiding I haven't seen him yet either
Celesdragon @ 05/28/22 9:52 pm
Dang, I've clicked "go to the dancefloor" for every single dance over the last two days, and still no Boudewijn. Feeling a bit stood up this year. =)

Is he only found on the dance floor? o_O

Radi0rulz 06/7/22 1:16 pm

I have been dancing a lot and still haven't come across Boudewijn. :(

NekoHime 06/1/22 11:37 pm

I still haven't seen Boudewijn yet. O.o

Yammica 05/31/22 3:56 pm

The profile images are working now, that's awesome! Makes it a lot more fun to visit the dance floor.

Delphi 05/31/22 3:42 pm

The images on invites and the dance floor are working! Woo!

cryptozoology 05/31/22 12:46 am

oh no-- I love D0990. i would die to protect D0990. i need about 10 D0990s in real life ;W;/

Hiallina 05/30/22 7:00 pm

Boudewijn is being very shy here as well...

NoCuteNameForMe 05/30/22 6:07 pm

Really getting a complex here..... Only one dance has been interrupted by Boudewijn, since the beginning of Masque. Is he too scared? Afraid my wrath will be too much for him?

Ana_Bolinho 05/30/22 2:05 pm

Anyone else's ballroom not showing the avatars? D: They are not loading and it's a shame, it's so cute to see them side by side when dancing!

Efferd 05/30/22 4:32 am

Anyone else having problems to dance? I can't access the forums either because I'm not logged in on new subeta (I'm aware of the problem, but how the hell do I log in if it isn't loading?).

CastlesInTheSky 05/30/22 12:17 am

I start at the bottom of the comments & work my way up at least once a day

StarShadow 05/29/22 4:14 pm

Agree with Delphi. I've only had 3 duels despite doing dozens and dozens of dances and going to the dance floor every single time. I wish the chances of dueling were better. Also disappointed not to see anyone's HA on the dance floor.

Delphi 05/29/22 10:06 am

I've only gotten Boudewijn once these past couple days, and I've seen people saying they go through 100 + dances and don't get him. I feel like he shouldn't be quite that rare. And the images still aren't working, might be for the best though? They'd probly lag and/or crash the site..

Funkykitsune 05/29/22 7:00 am

I can't see anyone's avatar on the dance floor....I dressed up all nice and fancy for nothing :/

RydenTheWind 05/28/22 5:09 pm

Happy Masquerade, y'all!!! First one for me :)

Mort 05/28/22 4:46 pm

What's going on! Either I get blank pages or HTTP ERROR 500s, I cannot dance in these conditions lol!

Bliss 05/28/22 3:51 pm

It's beyond frustrating right now to play Subeta. Try to dance? The site dies. Try to quest? The site dies. Try to comment? Yup, you guessed it.

Tammynoneed20 05/28/22 3:08 pm

I'm dancing and using the mystery dancing I'm having so much fun but today it messes up and dont want to load right but even a blank page I'm loving this

Bliss 05/27/22 9:15 pm

I swear not a lot of users are on for Masq? I use the mystery dance option almost all day long (when I can) and I barely get mystery dances. I find it odd?

Xezvi 05/27/22 2:00 pm

@DixieNight
Yes, if you deny a dance, neither of you get trinkets, and you won't receive a link to go to the dance floor. There is actually an achievement you get by denying a dance, so people don't usually take it personally.

NeonDinosaur 05/27/22 7:31 am

I own these exact pants lol I love them so much and still wear them to raves. My purple pair fell apart

so glad you guys made some finally! I hope bondage pants come back in style one day

CastlesInTheSky 05/26/22 11:04 pm

(Let's dance) put on your red shoes and dance the blues

NekoHime 05/26/22 10:58 pm

I haven't seen the images fix themselves since it started....:<

Flame 05/26/22 10:35 pm

Any news on the broken dance floor? It just doesn't feel like Masq without being able to see your partners!

Scribe 05/26/22 10:20 pm

I’m so bummed about the broken dance floor. It’s my favorite part of Masq. And now Boudewijn broke mid-duel. :c

Tammynoneed20 05/26/22 4:29 pm

Yea I danced alot and I haven't seen Boudewijn yet either maybe we just need to keep dancing to wake him up I hope to see him soon i look forward to the battle

BoaConstrictor 05/26/22 3:37 pm

I still can't see people and most of all no Boudewijn, even though my feet hurt like mad from dancing for 2 days :-(

Stiles 05/26/22 3:32 pm

i don't need anything, but if anyone needs a dance, dance at me and i'll get you back.

Chef 05/26/22 3:28 pm

@Spatial that is correct. The masquerade forums haven't had usernames for as long as I can remember.

Delphi 05/26/22 2:41 pm

I hope human avatar images start working on the dance floor and ivatations soon, it's kinda un immersive :c

NekoHime 05/26/22 2:38 pm

@Kinky hmm... so if I see him? Also ( if he cuts in on me, imma wip his ass. <.<)

Kinky 05/26/22 2:36 pm

@NekoHime, When you accept a dance, or somebody accepts the dance with you, click the link to go to the dance floor. If Boudewijn is there, he'll interrupt your dancing. You essentially will play a game of rock, paper, scissors with him. If you win, you receive a prize.

Hello 05/26/22 1:37 pm

finally have the chance to participate the way I want to ! hooray- I love site events <3

Lantern 05/26/22 1:09 pm

So many amazing items this year!

artichao 05/26/22 12:55 pm

So glad ANY item with "mask" in it works so I can continue to wear my cyber mask and don't have to put on any fancy-pants clothes~ <3

NekoHime 05/26/22 12:53 pm

How do you dual with Boudewijn?

Jack 05/26/22 12:51 pm

The new items are amazing!

wyrm 05/26/22 12:49 pm

gasp!! non-alcoholic drinks!! thank you! <3 (& everything looks lovely / delicious, as usual!)

Spatial 05/26/22 12:29 pm

does the forum not have usernames because its a "masquerade" ?
is that new or did i just never notice before??

oblivion 05/26/22 10:46 am

@DevilsRider I think the chisel mask is inspired by the Dragon Priest masks from Skyrim.

Synth 05/26/22 9:19 am

@Nicole
Well, I lost two out of the three duels so my luck isn't that much better lol. I hope you see Boudewijn soon (and kick his butt!)

Nicole 05/26/22 9:05 am

Thanks for letting me know @Synth! I must just be unlucky lol. :laughing:

Synth 05/26/22 8:49 am

@Nicole
I've gotten three duels so that's definitely working. I think dancefloor HA images are broken for everyone; I do hope they fix that soon.

Nicole 05/26/22 7:50 am

I still have blank images on the dance floor and I’ve never gotten a duel since the event started and I’ve gone to the dance floor over 100 times. Am I just unlucky or is it not working?
