Congratulations!
Posted: November 30, 2009

Fall may be falling, but Mistica's celebrations sure aren't! Everyone was fortunate enough to get a trophy this morning to celebrate the two year anniversary, but only a few lucky users managed to nab these spiffy monthly contest awards! Be sure to give them all a round of applause.



Art
Gold - Kauri
Silver - Dotti
Bronze - Wolfkin

Poetry
Gold - Etnik
Silver - Emidude884
Bronze - Kenkou

Unfortunately we only recieved one writing entry this month. It was a fantastic story, but extremely long and was disqualified.


Head on over to read the rest of the Chronicles and see the amazing contest entries that won!

There are still a few surprises up our sleeves.

Keep an eye out for this little Nutty hatchipal now stocking in Pandoria's Chamber.



And you won't want to miss this little cuddly plushie that Arielle is stocking!



Hope no one goes into flash shock, but there is another new game for everyone to enjoy!

You need to go help Zak the Zokuleon with his Znakey problem!

The latest craze to sweep Mistica is... Zokudoku!!

Happy Anniversary to all!

Now presenting...
Posted: November 28, 2009

New Profiles!!

Head on into your preferences to make any necessary changes that you'd like.

There will still be some changes and tweaks to come; as well as allowing full CSS customization.

Currently, you have many options for each Module, and a free text one that contains your previous profile information and coding.

You can move your Modules around, and edit them as you see fit. No need to hit a save button, it will remember where you've left each Module!

Another thing that you'll notice... A Communication Module! Now you can leave notes and msgs for friends oon their profile. You maintain full control over what you'd like to be displayed though.



Kandie is carrying a new line of amazing new lollies!

Get yours while you can!




Happy Anniversary Mistica!

Shopping!
Posted: November 27, 2009

There is a small sale occuring in the credit shop. A very limited amount of all boxes are available as well.





Those that purchase credits today will manually** receive a credit reward as a way of saying Thanks for your support!

We hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving, and that shopping for the holidays goes smoothly (and safely) for all!

Happy Holidays!

King Blithe has opened his doors, and invites any and all to come and work with him as he works as expanding his knowledge of alchemy. He has started out at first with some recipes... for one must understand the fundamental truths that one can find while baking.

Click below to head to King Blithe's Alchemy Lab. Perhaps you will divine the secret to making some amazingly wonderful and filling exotic foods?



Perhaps you will divine the secret somewhere in the world of Mistica to create...



Or



This tasty treat is quite complicated, but well worth it!



If you conquer the basics, and wish to experiment more on living things, perhaps you'll find a new set of sleepy pals for your pet?



Enjoy, and please do be careful in your experiments.

Please do not post the ingredients on the forums or to one another in mail, these spoilers can ruin the fun for many. Happy hunting!

King Blithe
Posted: November 25, 2009

Was a jolly old soul, and a jolly old soul was he.


King Blithe is a king with many talents, and a hearty appetite! He's brewing up some matter of fun, but no one can tell what it is!

There have been some pretty fancy creations leaving his castle lately. What would you give to sample culinary delights like...



And these pals sure look sleepy... Is King Blithe that much a bore?



Hope everyone has a hearty appetite for Exotic Foods day, tomorrow there will be feasting a plenty!

Keep an eye out, there are some tasty treats now stocking all over Mistica!




Everyone has a chance to nab these avatars again as well!

It has been growing all week. Everyone wondering if they will get the names they have been waiting for.

We have taken a backup in case there are unforseen issues, but we have tried to make this as fair as possible. 18 months if a very long time for inactivity out of our 2 year existance.

Playful Pal
Posted: November 18, 2009



Tormic has a new pal, just in time to celebrate a special birthday!

"G'day Mistica! I'm here to wish Hail the happiest of birthdays! I've got a new pal in my shop, that I sought out just for her. Though there are plenty to go around of course... " With a wink and a nod, Tormic scampered on back to his shop.

One can only hope Tormic gained this new pal free and clear of any... entanglements!



How adorably cute!
Make sure to stop on by Mistic Chat to sign the Birthday Card for Hail!

Watch out!
Posted: November 15, 2009

Pandoria wasn't through with her pin sticking fun!

Seems the Jinx managed to get the business end of a few of them!



Be kind to your pets! But if you must enchant them with Pandoria's power, make sure to give them lots of cuddles. *winks*

Nevermore...

Keep your eyes peeled, Pandoria has a new egg stocking!



We hope you enjoy this little pal, and the Jinx facts posted in Mistic Chat.




We also would like to report that over 10,000 accounts stand to be deleted very soon.

If you have family or friends that have accounts that they have neglected over the past year and a half, please spread the word that we will soon be clearing inactive accounts.

A farewell...
Posted: November 14, 2009

We bid the Jinx a fond farewell as they take their leave until such a time as they are able to come looking for homes once more.

Don't be sad, the shopkeepers are stocking some new items inspired by the lovely Jinx, and there is a new pal that may take the pain away for some without the space to bring a Jinx home to their family...



Ben Baggz has been lovingly crafting some amazing beanbags as well, be sure to get yours!




What else does the weekend hold?
