MYO Submission Open (and other updates)
Posted 10 months and 3 weeks ago :: Last edited 10 months and 3 weeks ago by tanimtooMYO Submission has been opened!
Woohoo! Exciting news! MYO Submission is now open, meaning you can start designing your MYO slots! Please read this announcement to answer any questions you might have or ask the mods in the Discord server if you're still unsure.
Note on Traits
(You can view all traits here) | As you may have noticed, the patches and tail traits have way more traits than the other categories; in fact, the other categories only have one or two traits. This is because I sadly wasn't able to finish as many traits as I'd like before the planned launch date. I prioritized adding at least 1 common trait per mandatory category to make sure the existence of a Plushibe is at least possible. If you've participated in any of the past events you likely have some trait upgrade items (e.g. fabric and thread). You can make do with the traits we currently have, wait until more traits are released or design with the traits we have now and use items to update later. Submitting a design update is free and may be done an unlimited amount of times, so don't worry about that!
How to submit a MYO Design
(You can view the full MYO Guide here) | To submit a MYO Design you will need a MYO Slot first. There's a chance you already own a MYO Carrier, if you click on the item in your inventory you can select 'Use Slot' to turn the item into a MYO Slot. Once you've got a MYO Slot you can start designing. In the Discord server, we have a #myo-checking channel, where you can show your WIP design to staff for quick review if you want to make sure your design and traits are correct while still in the sketch phase. You can submit your MYO Design by navigating to 'Submit MYO Design' in the sidebar of the MYO Slot's page. The entire MYO Submission process is explained in the MYO Guide.
I don't have a MYO Slot/Item
Plushibes being a closed species means you will not be able to create a character without a MYO Slot, I'm afraid you will have to wait until you receive one. But, there is also good news! Plushibes, at the very least for the foreseeable future, is meant to be a species that can be obtained in various ways. MYO Items are often rewards in events, there will be MYO Offerings (where you offer art for the admins for an MYO Slot), there might be FCFS Sales or Raffle Sales, you can purchase MYO Items with buttons which can be obtained in various ways, MYO raffles may be hosted, etc. etc. You won't miss out on MYO Slots just because you can't pay or don't have time to draw for example!
Other Announcements
Here is a series of other announcements that are not part of the MYO Submissions opening but I wanted to mention them here anyway! If you're in the discord server, you've likely already seen these, so just take it as a small re-cap!
Site Updates
The site has gone through many updates over time! Here are some of the more recent ones;
- The navbar has had some changes. 'Dailies' has been moved from the 'Shop' dropdown to the 'Activity' dropdown. The Site Guide has been added to the 'Home' dropdown. 'Traits' in the 'Browse' dropdown has been changed to link to the visual trait index instead.
- Dailies have been added and/or changed (depending on how many of the dailies updates you are aware of.) You can find Dailies in the 'Activity' dropdown in the navbar. There are 4 types of dailies; Daily, Weekly, Yearly and Monthly. You can collect your Daily every day starting from 00:00 server time. You can collect your Weekly starting every Monday, your Monthly starting every 1st of the month and your Yearly starting every January 1st. You will receive PlushE Credit and sometimes a CCarrier mystery box in your Daily. Weeklies, Monthlies and Yearlies give you a special box you can open for some randomized goodies!
- The visual trait index has been added. Here you can see all traits grouped by category and ordered by rarity in a grid format. This way you can easily look at the traits and then select the one you want to read more about.
- There have been some new CCarrier collections added recently; the Zodiac Series and the Bird Series. You can view all collections here.
- There have also been some general bug fixes and UI fixes! The text on buttons should no longer display as double thus rendering it unreadable. The footer merging with the page should also not happen anymore. If you find the UI looking weird in any spot please let the staff know by filing a bug report!
Discord Server Updates
The Discord server has gone through some updates as well. I shall not list them here as I did with the site updates, considering you can best just check the announcement channel in the Discord server itself. I will mention that we have some very useful channels within our Discord server and I highly recommend everyone who hasn't joined yet to do so! You can join the server by clicking this invite link, we have staff members ready to help you in there if you have any questions, or concerns or run into any issues.
Other Updates
Any other kind of updates are listed below!
- CCarriers have been around for quite a while, so I recently made a survey about them. If you haven't filled it in yet, you can still do so here; CCarrier Survey. If your opinion changed in any way since you last filled it in, you can still edit it if you'd like.
- The site went through some downtime in October when something caused the site to break. This resulted in some images being lost such as items and profile pictures. Since then, the site has been undergoing regular backups in case this ever happens again.
Final Notes
I want to thank everyone for sticking around the way you did. I announced an event in December 2022 as a 'pre-launch event', stating the species would launch shortly after. I imagined this to take one or two months, but in fact, it took me until January 2024. A large portion of the members who joined for that very first event are still around nowadays and I can't thank you enough for your continuous support and interest. <33
So, thank you all, enjoy the new updates and I can't wait to see what you all create!
