ADVENT TREE UPDATES - We will directly confirm that the Advent Tree will no longer do any unexpected changes to your creatures like apply Stars or do gender changes.
ADVENT TREE HEADS UP - On certain days, the Advent Tree may magically reset your Cave or Asteroid attempts, so be sure to do that sort of business before visiting the Tree. Thanks for helping us improve the Advent Tree!

@toy - The squeaky wheel gets the oil, as they say.
bubblez • 7 Dec 2012, 12:59 AM
@toy Not everyone can afford to buy CC for gender changes/stars. This was helpful to us. & most of the people complaining are ones that can
dionaea • 7 Dec 2012, 1:17 AM
@bubblez Seems to me just more of a reason to listen. So sick of people always going on about those able/willing to buy CC, nagging because
dionaea • 7 Dec 2012, 1:18 AM
we can, nagging because we won't buy CC for others or trade it away. I'd have been pissed off about a random gender change, whether I had CC
dionaea • 7 Dec 2012, 1:19 AM
or not, just because I put a lot of efford into getting male-female pairs of creatures, there are hardly any that I don't care about gender.
skibaerle • 7 Dec 2012, 1:23 AM
I agree with bubblez
bubblez • 7 Dec 2012, 1:25 AM
@dionaea It's not a reason. The mods said to send in a ticket. That's all people had to do. This was very helpful to many users.
Why ruin it for everyone? People should just have been more grateful instead of whining. It's the thought that matters. So thank you Ian.
bubblez • 7 Dec 2012, 1:26 AM
Thank you for trying to do something nice and helpful. "You da man" ;D
dionaea • 7 Dec 2012, 1:30 AM
Just to rain on your parade, it's been stated earlier in the thread that there weren't even any more like this planned, so you don't even
dionaea • 7 Dec 2012, 1:31 AM
have a reason to go blaming the people who didn't like it for not getting more freebies. Just because you like something doesn't mean every-
dionaea • 7 Dec 2012, 1:32 AM
one else has to like it too.
clayosaurusrex • 7 Dec 2012, 1:47 AM
@orderedchaos I LOVED those risk days! It starred my Iramae and made my Pyraguin female which I would've done eventually anyway!
musicgurl333 • 7 Dec 2012, 2:14 AM
Yay! Thank you @Ian! I'm glad that I won't have to worry about any more random things happening to my creatures. I LOVE the advent tree! đ
cricket • 7 Dec 2012, 2:36 AM
I can see why people do and don't like it. You can't please everyone anyway, so just do what you want, Ian.đ
neko-chan • 7 Dec 2012, 2:47 AM
the advent tree is one of the most awesome things that has been on EC.8D
syndrome • 7 Dec 2012, 6:21 AM
What does the tree give out today?
cricket • 7 Dec 2012, 6:40 AM
It feeds all your creatures and raises their feed count by one.
jadewuvchicken • 7 Dec 2012, 8:36 AM
Hm,maybe Ian should've made the tree offer users if they would like the gender change/star rather than doing it automatically. Just an idea.
flashbunny • 7 Dec 2012, 9:08 AM
@bubblez i ahve never ever been able to get CC, so i am with you there. yet i don't complain. And i agree, i should not throw those kinds of
flashbunny • 7 Dec 2012, 9:09 AM
"insults" around - idk, i was a ranting 12 year old back in the day.. but that's just my opinion đ anyways i am just disappointed.
BUT, here's a bunch of big warm hugs from Flashy -hugs everyone- and i wish you all happy holidays :]
sprite • 7 Dec 2012, 10:07 AM
@elluwah Fantastic drawing..love it!
sprite • 7 Dec 2012, 10:10 AM
My gender change was my Treelar from a male to female. Luckily the name Insane is gender neutral đ
sprite • 7 Dec 2012, 10:13 AM
Susannah my Engel was starred so thought that was fitting đ
brambleleaf • 7 Dec 2012, 10:15 AM
The tree changed the gender of a male that I had given a female name, and I was really happy about that. And, well, honestly, I don't know--
--anyone who wouldn't want a star.
mastermepp • 7 Dec 2012, 10:21 AM
I didn't mind a star. But I'm kinda sad that the tree made my star sey a girl ... (I now have 3 girl star Sey's)
turkishdelight • 7 Dec 2012, 11:11 AM
Good to know that no more unwanted changes will happen! Thanks Ian! đ
bubblez • 7 Dec 2012, 11:19 AM
@dionaea You're not raining on my parade. Nor did I say everyone has to like it. But it's called being ---
bubblez • 7 Dec 2012, 11:20 AM
grateful. And you all complaining will end up ruining it for years to come.
Orderedchaos • 7 Dec 2012, 11:22 AM
Ok, I think this point has been argued to death. I think its best if everyone agrees to disagree and leaves it at that.
takaedakumi • 7 Dec 2012, 12:54 PM
I didn't necessarily dislike the things that happened at the Advent Tree, I just wish they gave us a choice. The tree should have-
takaedakumi • 7 Dec 2012, 12:55 PM
said something like: You hear a faint voice from inside the Advent Tree. It says: "Which creature would you like to be gifted with a star?"
takaedakumi • 7 Dec 2012, 12:56 PM
And then it could let you choose... or something.
karamel • 7 Dec 2012, 1:08 PM
Agreeing with @takatheeducatedkid, but hey, Ian does what he wants with EC. Either way I'm happy :]
karamel • 7 Dec 2012, 1:18 PM
Also, the Advent Tree gave my creatures +1 for all the stats... I think there should be a "Would you like to accept this gift?" option... --
karamel • 7 Dec 2012, 1:19 PM
-- Pretty sure some users don't want certain creatures fed. This would solve the gender/star thing too.
skibaerle • 7 Dec 2012, 1:23 PM
good night everybody
skibaerle • 7 Dec 2012, 1:39 PM
I would like to get a Doovoo gift :-)
takaedakumi • 7 Dec 2012, 2:10 PM
@skibaerle Ahaha, we can keep wishing. ^^
fuzzydragon • 7 Dec 2012, 2:59 PM
Hello EggCave!
ginna3525 • 7 Dec 2012, 2:59 PM
good afternoon egg cave
flashbunny • 7 Dec 2012, 3:04 PM
i love that idea @takatheeducatedkid just saying đ How is everyone today?
leopardshadow • 7 Dec 2012, 3:34 PM
In the advent tree, i think it should be possible to choose what you get yourself.
sophia123 • 7 Dec 2012, 3:51 PM
@leopardshadow i like it as it is, cause everybody gets the same things...
elementalpaws • 7 Dec 2012, 5:08 PM
It said all my creatures happiness was restored to 100.....but they're not any happier. âšī¸
elementalpaws • 7 Dec 2012, 5:16 PM
@colette .....nevermind I read it wrong đ
iulianna1 • 7 Dec 2012, 5:52 PM
:| disappointing gift from the tree today
potato • 7 Dec 2012, 5:59 PM
Glad the randomness was removed!
