Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Thank you all for coming
shanny: first time coming in forever’
Tigress: where are the march meeting
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: All ideas/questions/suggestions from past meetings are still saved.
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Over the past month, most of my time has been focused on bringing in new and returning members. We’ve seen a steady flow, which is good, and some new users are staying.
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: However, we still have the same core issue, new players struggle to find their place in the world. Welcomers have been helping, and regular contact is being made, which is a positive step.
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: But I want to ask a simple question: if you weren’t a long-standing member with friends here, and you didn’t enjoy the regular hourly slot games, what would keep you engaged? Would it be hunts, quests, storyline events, or something else?
Tigress: Dream can you get me one
Tigress: please

Mikey: hunts

PetMePlease: Homey and one of me were on thatt snowy mountain from Dec to March in 2020-2021
Gemmy: would be nice to have more roleplayer groups than Pans..jesters were always fun and nice prizes
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: What if we had say a weekly or daily drop hunt that was on schedule and smaller number of items?
Morning Glory: jesters
vVDreamVv: i miss the gypies
Tigress: love drops but needs to be limited
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Maybe like 20 items
Gracie: quests can be good
Mikey: that would be GREAT
Zoey: rhi and mg do a drop hunt sort of thing
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: or less
Tigress: one person can’t get them all
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Rather than a drop giveaway
crazy~lil~noodle: and covering timezones
Morning Glory: yes every week
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: shanny i cant move people when so many sorry
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: okay, i’ve put the idea down.
vVDreamVv: dragon hunts like back in second kingdom
Becket: make the drops where only the main can do it
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Will do Q&A at the end.
vVDreamVv: i liked that
crazy~lil~noodle: I could never do rhi and mgs drop hunt, not one time too late at that day
Becket: so everyone has a cnahce to find
shanny: what about the coupns from christmas?
Morning Glory: we stopped the “drop” part because of the few ppl who think they need to take ALL of them
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: I confirm jesters is on the pending list from past months.

Tuli: LOL
Becket: thats why I said only use main alts to play the drop and have it where only one per account
Zoey: thatr would require just knowing who main alts are
shanny: ppl dont want ya knowing their alts
shanny:
Morning Glory: rhi and i could probably split the hunt into two time slot…a daytime one and an evening one
Becket: not if he set it that way
crazy~lil~noodle: my main avi is useless , she can only park
Mikey: the problem with no Alts is alts are to be secret
vVDreamVv: lol
crazy~lil~noodle: not the brightest candle on the cake she is
PetMePlease: I dont give a shit.. I got nothing to hide
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: I will do Q&A at the end so we can get through all the topics
Gemmy: i dont want paint tickets to go away..but maybe since voucher items cost more now, add a voucher prize to replace a hat or something
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Nutz in group chat pls

Acolyte Cosmic Andy: #1 Dia Question – Post on FB about doing something different with raffle prizes. Current vote is saying keep vouchers. Open to suggestions ideas for raffle prizes?
vVDreamVv: keep paint vouchers
Gaia: keep vouchers i say
Nutty™: gold vouchers are and everyday item… a 5V ticket would be a cool raffle giveaway
Becket: keep vouchers
Morning Glory: customer 50 shot paint cans
shanny: keep voucher
Morning Glory: custom i meant
PetMePlease: 5V would be different too
Nutty™: err 50V I meant to sauy
PetMePlease: thats even better lol
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: okay so keep vouchers but maybe mix with some higher value v vouchers
Nutty™: in place of paint tickets
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: noted
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: moving on
shanny: DO NOT TAKE SHANS GNOME OR HEADWRAPS K TY
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: #########################################################################################
Gaia: i have an idea though!!!!
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: 2
Gaia: two more levels to vouchers
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: ############################################################
Tuli: turf doors
Gaia: diamond and platinum
vVDreamVv: omg yes keep wraps
Tuli: get rid of white warning sign
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: @Emm idea – Wanted toggle for the website to show open shops. Suggested idea is we allow shop owners who to add to the schedule when a shop is opened. Min max 1 hour slot per day.
Zoey: i rather keep paint tix than have vouchers
Tuli: owners know we have doors
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Shop owners would be rewarded for doing it and they must be in the shop during the hour slot on the schedule.
shanny: ooo yes
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Thoughts?
Mikey: yes i agree
shanny: i like to shop
Nutty™: i thought i was ghosted here
Morning Glory: a seperate shp schedule would be great
shanny: no one hardly open
Zoey: see, we all like diff stuff
Gaia: i can’t see an issue with that would bring more people to the website
Tuli: My alt advertises on her TMA
shanny: unless u catch uum on
Tuli: good on shops here
PetMePlease: I try not to think, I aint that goood at it
shanny: yes
Blu: can’t ghost..
shanny: u do tuls
crazy~lil~noodle: hm
crazy~lil~noodle: no one isnt right
Zoey: hardly anyone wears wraps but we keep them
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: The idea of the schedule is you know 100% someone is in the shop and it’s open and ideally been updated since last time on schedule
shanny: i do ??
vVDreamVv: i wear them daily
Morning Glory: but ppl dont like to ask owners to open
Gaia: Yep!
vVDreamVv: only had my main wears
Gaia: Do it
PetMePlease: I have 100’s of wraps lol I love them and acorns but i dont wear them anymore
shanny: i have over 300 from 1998 till now
shanny: lol
crazy~lil~noodle: updated?
Zoey: i dont see it on you lol
Stella: yes, shopping is one of the reasons Iam here….keeps me from spending as much RW
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Yeah the benefit for introverts you can just fly in and out
Zoey: and one person?
Morning Glory: they should either be open or closed
vVDreamVv: my main avie
Morning Glory: yep

Morning Glory: and not everyone clicks on ppl’s TMA
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: @suzie idea – Variations Update: This is frequently requested. Would you all be okay with switching the store from a fancy display layout to vendos?
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: This would allow for more regular updates as it’s quicker to manage and lets us focus on adding more items rather than maintaining store layouts.
Morning Glory: YES PLZ
Morning Glory: oops
Zoey: i like to see it all and not have to spin a vendo persoanlly
Mikey: yes vendo style
crazy~lil~noodle: my shops are open when I am here
vVDreamVv: sounds good
Gaia: more items is better, locales could just be decorated
Puppy Love: nah, i like it
PetMePlease: Yes
shanny: i loveeee varis
Gracie: If it makes it easier all round then yes good idea.
Mikey: would be faster and easier
Zoey: no
Blu: yes
Zoey: woudl be slower
Gaia: easier and faster is better less work
Stella: YES
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Zoey slower because you need to view all on the vendo?
PetMePlease: U can click Vendo and see everything inside so its the same as a window and less work for U guys
Zoey: yes lol
shanny: lol
Nutty™: I like i the way it is… like my closet
Morning Glory: view display
Zoey: i like to see them all and not have to click a vendo
shanny: i like it now
Zoey: and not ahve them disappear
shanny: just update
Puppy Love: you mean inside the store, or the window?
Stella: furniture for Summerland- sorry if off topic
Mikey: the way it is now its not updated enough
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: in the store yep
Becket: Do not like having to click vendo to see
Tigress: when are they going to do the tickets from the christmas event
Zoey: just saying my preference
Gracie: lol walkabout again lol
Gemmy: it would be nice to start adding to Vari again..items that DONT say NP on them..all the market place shops are NP items
Morning Glory: either way, def needs to be updated
Gaia: Becket you can see all items if you choose that option
PetMePlease: theres never any Lucy body stuff in Vari window
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: 90% of the update time is picking items and making a layout. I am wondering as it’s variations if we dont worry about the layout and give you variations then it could possibly get updated weekly.
Gracie: have to go.. enjoy everyone
Gaia: Lets do that Andy
Gaia: great idea
shanny: yes andy
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: It would be “variations”
shanny: sounds good
Stella: good
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: so you might get a toaster and a flying dog in the same vendo
shanny: lmfao
Puppy Love: nooooooooooooooo
vVDreamVv: lol
Gaia: lol fits my personality so well rofl
Zoey: uh well I dont like the vendo style

Gemmy: yep

Gaia: you can click on a vendo though and choose to see all items
Nutty™: that would be alotttttt of clickin
Becket: I like being able to see everything
Gemmy: with no NP on them
Zoey: yes and it disappears after a short time
: Puppy Love is now following you.
~*Troela*~: I really don’t like the set up like in the pop up shop
Nutty™: I know ya can… but why have to
Tuli: thats the reason for paint tickets to be able to customize an item…no be told NP
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: okay comments noted and moving on
Tuli: not*
Zoey: its my preference to see everything

Acolyte Cosmic Andy: This one is exciting
Nutty™: im xcited
Juliet: last one was too
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: @xietoo idea – Turf Decoration Competition (Returning): Launching from April, we will run a monthly turf-building competition from the new Creators Building
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: next to the Welcome Center. Each month will have a theme, participants will be given a creator turf to build in, and at the end of the month the top 3 will receive prizes.
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: First place will receive official VZones merchandise such as t-shirts, pens, or bags, and all participants will receive a participation reward.
Tigress: yes
Stella: oh…to be able to move things all the way to the left…lots of “side” things set too far into frame

Acolyte Cosmic Andy: 1st place monthly will be RW yep
Zoey: ty
Gemmy: oh yes
Juliet: wow
vVDreamVv: nice
Juliet: nice
Mikey: walking advertisment
Suzie: nice
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Note that builds have to be done in creators turfs and are deleted at the end of the month
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: BUT
Nutty™: ohh nooo
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: They can be saved as you will learn in the next part
Zoey: okay good
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: which is also very exciting i think
Nutty™: competition bulds?
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Creator Turf Builds – Also operating from the Creators Building, members can claim a short-term single-room turf for up to 30 days to create builds.
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: These builds can be exported and listed on the VZones website where other members can purchase them and import them into their own turf.
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Revenue will be split 60% to VZones and 40% to the builder, paid in Gold. This idea came from @punkin and @Shoot who wanted additional turf build options, and it allows members to earn Gold from their creations.
Nutty™: oh I see… ok
Stella: ok
crazy~lil~noodle: ok
vVDreamVv: nice
Nutty™: I thought turf deco but you mean locale builds?
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Can also be set to free if you wanted to give the build away.
Zoey: vn
Zoey: would this be a background for a room in a turf?
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: It’s two things. 1 is turf building competition monthly and 2nd is building turfs/areas that you can sell/give away to others.
PetMePlease: we’ll have locales on For Sale stands on Temple St.
Nutty™: wheres the buidl items come from then?
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: In the build you mean?
Nutty™: yes
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: The builder purchases them and license/none AW it’s included in the sold build.
Zoey: like adding a room to a turf that someone deco’d?
Nutty™: hmm ok diff than I thought
Zoey: i dont really understand just asking
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: For example Zoey you could build a 2 room castle turf
Zoey: so woould be a stand alone turf?
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: That can then be listed on the website and sold/given away for others to get the same
Nutty™: I thought like I deco a room with my stuff and submit the screenshot
Zoey: okay so wow we could pick the locale?
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Zoey are you talking 1) turf build competition or 2) sell turf builds to others?
Zoey: the sell ones 2
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: 2) So yeah you can build anything you want
Tuli: ill pass on this one
Zoey: but the purchaser could put anywhere?
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: yes
Zoey: like in a current turf site?
vVDreamVv: do we get to keep our orginal one?
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Yes
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Yes
Zoey: like say i choose TSt
vVDreamVv: ok
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Yep
Zoey: got it thank you
Nutty™: i think i need ta scroll… not understanding but thats ok… diff than a turf build conest I was thoinkinh
Zoey: how much would these go for?
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: the price is set by the builder
Zoey: liek ballpark
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Anything you want
Zoey: 5 dollars or 500 dollars
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: 0 to 500
Nutty™: yes
Nutty™:
Zoey: got it lol
Morning Glory: prolly depends on the cost it would take to build and your time
Stella: could we take requests?
Zoey: fascinating idea
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Stella you could post/ask someone yes
Nutty™: so we buy things to build with? Ts or Gs?
Zoey: and could deco any way we want?
Stella: excellent
Madame Titzenass: she wants a fish processing factory
Zoey: not jsut using vendo items
Stella: lol
shanny: i need a stripper pole k
Nutty™: lol titz
shanny:
shanny: lol
crazy~lil~noodle: LOL
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: So Stella could ask Zoey to build her a garden with a pool and Zoey could build it just for you or the build can be listed for sale so anyone can buy it
Nutty™: iots in yer pocket shan
Nutty™: see
Stella: I could build a bar with a stripper cage and pole

Nutty™: *blinks*\
Juliet: awww
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: I’m also looking for feedback on the Tamagotchi-style items I mentioned last meeting. We’ve done some early research and development on this idea, where certain items can come to life and be linked to the website.
shanny: omg i had 1 rw
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: For example, you could own a gremlin like this one that needs ongoing interaction to stay active or evolve.
Stella: interesting
shanny: lol
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: A gremlin might need to be walked every few days and taken to the park once a week. If you don’t keep up with this, it could become sad or change state automatically.
Nutty™: ehh… *googles tamagati something*
Madame Titzenass: we need to bring folks to life iw first
Tuli: andy?
shanny: rofl hahahaha
Gemmy: oh that would be fun
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Taking your gremlin to specific areas or completing certain actions would increase its score, unlock accessories, and open up new areas or features.
Stella: lol
Gaia: its an interesting concept
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Would this be something you’d enjoy, and how would you want it to work?
Blu: might be interesting
Morning Glory: that would be fun fun
Gemmy: yes
Morning Glory: yes
Stella: indeed….inliven folks!!
vVDreamVv: oo that sounds neat
Zoey: sounds fun, can do with my cute poodle?
Zoey:
Nutty™: ima kitty
Kimmie D: Tamagotchis and Furbys are scary prospects
Gemmy: give us options of items and let us paint them
Morning Glory: but how much would one of these cost?
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: It would be done with new art so you can only get the image by doing things with the item
Morning Glory: plz dont say Gold
Gaia: lol
Tuli: ANDY?
Zoey: well gold makes sense
vVDreamVv: some of us cant afford to buy gold
Morning Glory: right
Zoey: right of course
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: You couldn’t paint it, you would need to do things to get a different color option.
Morning Glory: and everyone has tokens
Zoey: ? lol not everyone has tokens
Morning Glory: that would be cool Andy
Morning Glory: sure they do
Zoey: or many of them
Morning Glory: they earn them everyday
vVDreamVv: hence why i suggested to bring back the 1G per game we host as our hosting rewward
Zoey: 20?
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: They would be free for the most part
Morning Glory: and hour
Nutty™: hosts use to get Gs
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Think of it as a quest but on an item
Juliet: wow, that’s nice
PetMePlease: he’s ignoring G for Hosting
Nutty™: heh
vVDreamVv: i’ll do it if the thingy is not uglyyyyy
vVDreamVv: i know he is
vVDreamVv: lol
crazy~lil~noodle: lol
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: I am ignoring anything not on topic yes, we can do q&a on anything after.
Juliet: yes, must be super cute
Zoey: ugly is subjective
Nutty™: hahaaa
Zoey: as is cute
Juliet: Ha
Nutty™: nice cpomeback
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: it would need cute/new style items yep
Zoey: options are good
Zoey: we all dont like the same things
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: like the gremlin for example you wouldnt just get it the item like that
Morning Glory: options are always good
vVDreamVv: i want a wolf
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: You would need to do a number of things like hatch from egg, take it to the beach etc
Nutty™: they are/were fer sale
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: So mostly positive on that but not jumping for joy?
Zoey: sounds fun if not too difficult
Rileigh: I like the idea
shanny: id do it andy
Juliet: I like it
Gemmy: yep

Juliet: oh, haha, great
Zoey: some have been doing that unofficially
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: That was all i had for this time so now i will take any questions on anything you have.
Tuli: right?
Zoey: didnt know it was a job option
Tuli: is it imperative to have the warning door signs in your own turfs? We know we have doors…theres a few don’t want the white door warning signs..
Tigress: when are they doing the tickets from the christmas event

Madame Titzenass: i suggested last time we did the dp thing where you collected a set all month and rraded in
Rileigh: yes, such as Darksiders, etc
Madame Titzenass: like xmas
Zoey: that seems to exclude people, just in my opinion
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: What would the groups have/need apart from a registered tag/name list?
Rileigh: there used to always be groups
Morning Glory: right?
Zoey: which excluded others yes
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Yeah i was in the Black Nights back in the days
Morning Glory: cant they just chnge their names on their own?
Morning Glory: be your own gang
Gaia: Used to be Heartstrings and Golden Knights GK with Pal Joey
Zoey: does the group have to vote you in?
Madame Titzenass: GK here

Madame Titzenass: with pal joey

Morning Glory: I hung around with whomever I wanted
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: it would be cool to mix team games with groups but I dont think a lot of people will be willing to join group but they would gaming teams
Gaia: thats a great concept Andy
Tabitha: Jester right here comin thru
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: I see no harm in having groups returned and made official but in it’s current form it would basically just be an official list of names with a tag
PetMePlease: but U need dependable ppl for these game groups
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Sound about right?
Morning Glory: I’d like the Jesters back
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Well you don’t Pet

Tabitha: btw oldest darkie is J ask him about voting
crazy~lil~noodle: riff raff
Mikey: was a jester always had a blast
Tabitha: pita tinny
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: The old rule in groups was you had to have the tag in your name

Mikey: dips riff is here
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: you just stick it on

Gaia: Just edit your name
Zoey: any you want?
Morning Glory: yep
Riff Raff: relvis from disgraceland
vVDreamVv: you and a few friends make a group an name it
Zoey: so anyone could do that at anytime now
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: but official groups could be blocked from the registry so they need to be managed via the group in some kind of special way
vVDreamVv: then invite others
Zoey: see not lol
vVDreamVv: or if someone comes to you…. vote them in
PetMePlease: My brand new cat avie needs 66K 6to change name and i changed it once Andy wwas nice enough to do the last change for her

Acolyte Cosmic Andy: Yeah you play yourself or have your own group with just you in it
Zoey: what if its me dream and they dont like me
crazy~lil~noodle: LOL pet
Stella: like dis one
PetMePlease: 420 is different.. we accept anyone
Becket: right
vVDreamVv: why would you want to join a group? of ppl who you dontlike or vice versa
vVDreamVv: the groups are normally friends
Rileigh: exactly
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: No major benefit to join a group in the current form, in the older days it had benefits
Tiny Tabby: i agree
Zoey: why do you ahve to officially recognize how many friends you have?
Morning Glory: I say 86 the groups, this isnt Jr High
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: but it also had 10x members so more groups was going to happen

vVDreamVv: Darksiders will be around after J
Madame Titzenass: yes but its petty
Tuli: got to go Acro is next and host is waiting ..hugs all
Tiny Tabby: probably
Gaia: I think a group can be a long term legend around here and not have to be “official”
Madame Titzenass: do we really have to have items with slave written on them
Acolyte Cosmic Andy: it seems we do yep
shanny: its funny
Zoey: lol lol

@becket – more hunts
@ashley – turfs & games in London
@emm – vendor trade option via website/shop owners opt in etc.
@Toaster Strudel – weather page
@majenta – player rules regarding alts
@madamtiz – Following the success of the ornament collection at christmas it may be a good idea to carry on this idea as loads came to games to try and get the set just simple things like eggs fruit etc and at end of the month trade in for something just a thought
@emm – blitz too many in row with same winners need list of games
@Cosmic***************************************************** TURF PHOTO GALLERY
@Unknown – Mandatory Check-In: Droppers should announce their presence at the start of the hour so players have confirmation that the game is actually active.
“All Clear” Announcements: A requirement for droppers to announce when all prizes have been found so we can stop wasting time on a fruitless hunt.
@Gracie – check lakeside turfs how many available
@happy – 20 room turfs when ready and how?
@Zophia – portable postbox
@forgot sorry – would like to see themed turfs available to purchase.
@cosmic – new VIP Plus account pending
@cosmic – new standard Plus account pending
@ashley – add foxes to collections
@cosmic – new 20 room turfs pending
@cosmic – buddy/helper role. This is still very much needed. As new members come in i can drop an ESP to any long standing members who are wanting to know the names of new people who may need help. I’ve been doing this adhoc to Emm, Rhi & MG. Until a system is in place this is the best option.
@cosmic – more doors/windows/building elements available to buy paintable
@cosmic – URL on objects sold via ticket @ member services building
@suzie – double vouchers@ events
@all – more drop hunts, hourly, for new members. -
I am too lazy to read everything after question 7 however my input and questions are….
1. Gold Vouchers would prob be the best bet.
2. Shop. It would be cool if the people who own their shops could take pictures and update the shop themselves. Specially cause whomever took pictures of my shop the first time didnt do so well ( nudges )
My questions:
1. Can we make it so we can purchase as much or as little gold as we want from the website. Like a sliding scale for gold purchases
2. Magic Shop Visits: I know Polly schedule can be unpredictable but is there a way we can put some of the magic shop visits on the schedule so I can plan ahead.
3. I will pay someone to bring back the ren faire. I have all the premade locales in mind from SK but I know I wont be able to pull it off on my own. It has been my dream since I started back in Vzones.
4. I am willing to volunteer on Wednesday afternoons and Weekends for Item drops and to be a Jester ( wink )
-
Morning,
2) Yeah, this will be setup this week.
Answers
1) Will do
2) I will look into this and speak to @polly as a few others also asked this.
3) Can you give me more details on this?
4) Jesters would be part of the role play (RP) system we have so this needs to be discussed with @Polly jesters is on the list as many people asked.

Summary for @TWIZZLER
🔑 Main Issue
New players struggle to find their place and stay engaged.
Core question: What keeps people interested beyond friends + slot games?
🎯 Popular Engagement Ideas
Hunts (most requested)
Fox, dragon, fish-style hunts
Preference for interactive hunts, not just hourly slots
Quests
Mixed opinions (fun but too long/frustrating if dragged out)
Better if self-paced
Deco contests
Strong interest
Roleplay groups (e.g. Jesters)
Popular request to bring back
📦 Drop Hunts Feedback
Idea: smaller, scheduled drop hunts (e.g. ~20 items)
Concerns:
People grabbing everything
Timezone fairness
Alt account abuse
Suggested fixes:
Limit per account
Multiple time slots
🎟️ Raffles & Rewards
General agreement: keep vouchers
Suggestions:
Add higher-value vouchers (e.g. 50V)
Include gold vouchers
More variety in prizes
🛍️ Shops & Website
Proposed shop schedule system
Owners list when shops are open (1-hour slots)
Helps players know when shops are active
Mostly positive feedback
🧥 Store Format (Variations)
Proposal: switch to vendo-style store
Faster updates, more items
Feedback split:
✅ Pro: more frequent updates
❌ Con: dislike extra clicking / prefer visual browsing
🏗️ New Features
1. Turf Tools
Cheap tokens to:
Move doors
Remove signs
Adjust layouts
✔ Strong support
2. Monthly Turf Building Competition
Starts April
Theme-based, prizes (including real-world merch)
✔ Very positive response
3. Player-Created Turf Sales
Build turfs → sell/share them
Revenue split: 60% VZones / 40% creator (Gold)
✔ Interesting but some confusion
🐾 Tamagotchi-Style Items
Interactive items (e.g. pets that evolve with care)
Actions unlock features/colors
Mostly positive but cautious interest
👥 Groups Discussion
Mixed opinions:
Some want classic groups (Jesters, Darksiders, etc.)
Others feel it’s cliquey/exclusive
Possible direction:
Keep groups simple (tags only)
Focus more on team-based games instead
🧠 Other Notes
Requests for:
Bring back old hunts (fish, fox, fuzzie)
Remove unnecessary door warning signs
Updates on Christmas rewards
Referral system added (earn Gold)
Push for social media promotion
✅ Overall Takeaway
Community strongly favors:
Hunts + interactive events
Creative activities (deco, building)
Key challenge remains:
Making the game engaging for new players, not just long-time members
