Hmmm, new exploration. Since the title mentions the Orange Islands I'm guessing Crystal Onix, but we'll see~
e: ok forget that, the text for the first task seems to hint something else... In other news, I started Fire Emblem The Sacred Stones yesterday, and I'm still playing Final Fantasy XII. I have over 100 hours of playing, and I'm sure I'll have at least 150 when I'm done, between the autoleveling and the marks/other sidequests I still have to do.

There’s a lot of tension in this town Group: +Donors Posts: 2 004 Joined: 30-April 09 From: Louisiana Member No.: 17 626 Active Squad |
New exploration? Yay! Plus this thing needs Cheri Berries. Also I noticed a mistake for one of the tasks, but I don't want to spoil it as it's just been released. Ironically, I got hit with that phishing page when I went read the Phishing Warning topic. -------------------- |

The battles talk makes me think I still don't have all the combs... But these battles are too hard, seriously. I should see if there are tips on the discussion post related to it, but I'm always too lazy and think "I'll do it tomorrow" >.> There are some nice tips there, even if it's only the items that each mon have. The real problem is that if you lose, you've to start everything from the beginning. :/ And wow, new exploration. I'm still 10.3k away from finishing DotW, so I'll wait to see what's the reward from that one. -------------------- |

Also I noticed a mistake for one of the tasks, but I don't want to spoil it as it's just been released. Ironically, I got hit with that phishing page when I went read the Phishing Warning topic. *stops lurking to post* If the mistake was in task 3, it was just fixed. If not, then if you want to shoot me a message saying what the issue was I can forward it to the people who could fix it. I hope everyone likes this new exploration. I enjoyed writing it very much. EDIT: Okay, I'll mention that too. (Refers to above post.) EDIT 2: That is also fixed now.

New exploration?! Sweetness! *happy dances* That only makes me want to be on more tomorrow so that I can work towards finishing the one I am on and get right on to this new one.
Thanks for this, GPX! Also, good luck with the server situation. I just read the new post about the phishing thing. I guess that is one thing that FF is doing right (or, since I'm already involved in an explore, the warning isn't coming up). In any event, I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that all goes well as you work to resolve that. And yay! Today? I finally used a salt water bucket. Nice to see what becomes of the Pokemon when I use that. It's cool! -------------------- |

So... I finally did something I've been delaying for a lot of time: I cleaned my Pal Pad a bit. Most friended users are/were people I knew from another forum, but many of them haven't logged on for years. I added some people and I still have about half of the space empty, so I might check out the Networking Ninjas group and help people with SN.
I derped and gave him the wrong berry. Please don't be like me and help this poor thing. -------------------- |

The older I get, the less I seem to care for things.... Group: Members Posts: 2 154 Joined: 13-June 09 From: Alola Member No.: 33 779 The Chosen Ones |
Would make sense since... yknow... September is usually categorized in fall, and fall colors are orange, and since purple is always paired with orange somehow...
Glad to see the phishing post, was already getting a lil bit worried Now I at least know I'm not being risky or anything -------------------- |

I know there's the achievement Lucky Day, for completing two recorded shiny hunts in one day...but has anyone one-upped that and finished three recorded shiny hunts in one day? (Absolutely no way that's ever happening to me.) Species: Zorua, Litwick, Porygon Date Ended: May 31/11 Count According to my shine recorder, I finished 5 recorded hunts on July 17th. Most of them were for the SWSH. it...And now, even more explos to not do as I procrastinate in DoTW -------------------- Inactive but still drop by sometimes. Best contact is @Cajun#5683 on Discord. Even when all hope is lost, we will never surrender And when the music finally ends, you'll always remember Never. Stop. Dancing. |

^ Yeah, I completed 6 hunts in a day once. But that was just pure luck
I didn't even notice anything wrong with the server, but maybe I'm just fortunate? Glad these problems will be resolved soon, so anyone experiencing them can breathe The only issues I have are tied with my browser. Opera doesn't cooperate with me the way I would prefer and for some reason I can't download Firefox anymore. I'm doing a random last minute explo. Spicy berry pls? T^T Other than that, I'm clicking like crazy. The goal is to hatch more than 330 eggs today, which is my record. Also, if it wasn't for this task, I'd finish my exploration already. Hoping to find a shiny too ;P I'm on fire today and I have to use this enthusiasm to the fullest before I procrastinate again ;D This post has been edited by Octobris: Aug 31 2015, 05:42 PM |

Third to complete the new exploration, and I can confirm that everything is fixed and that you'll get the prize that you want to actually pick. I'm especially pleased to have this explo released since it involves things I made.
There was talk of favorite shinies that you own earlier. On GPX+, my favorite shiny is my shiny Yveltal. No doubt about it. In the games, I didn't really get many shinies, but it'd probably be the event Rayquaza that was just given out. Also regarding how many trinket chests you saved up this month: 83 for me. About the usual for the last day of the scavenger hunt month. I think I'll do my Dracowymsy exploration next since 1) I want a shiny of it again and 2) it's probably my magnum opus on here. -------------------- Check my GPXPlus journal to see what I contributed to the site!

Hi everyone, I haven't been on in awhile and I just skipped to the last page. I just moved back to my mom's this weekend after some bad events so I can use her laptop now and I can keep up with the next thread.
I have gotten two shinies since my last post, swirlix and onix (which will be a mega steelix). I'm so excited for tomorrow! I get to go out for my birthday~ Going to see minions and eat at old country buffet I think. -------------------- |

She Who Can Be Voracious Group: +Donors Posts: 2 808 Joined: 9-January 10 From: Flatland Member No.: 79 103 My Purple Ones |
I finally got a haircut, my hair used to be just past my waist and now it's above my shoulders.
It kept getting stuck on chairs and doors and branches when I was gardening and it was a safety hazard in my Horticultural Tools class, I had to put it in a bun so I wouldn't get scalped. A classmate had actually seen a partial scalping happen. Gonna donate it to Locks of Love. -------------------- Avatar by Cycloneblaze at Cycloneshop II Banner by http://gpx.plus/user/eevee64 Banner by http://gpx.plus/user/Baymax |

Hey look it's a new thing ^^. I found two shinies in the same day several times. I found a shiny Tropius, Mareep and Litwick on January second, 2013. I feel like it happened another time, but I can't find it on my shine recorder, so there was probably a random shiny in the mix. -------------------- |

Hey everybody! Hope you all had a good day. Or are having one, depending on your time zone, haha.
I'm glad there's a new normal exploration! I'm jumping on it now~ I actually managed to do the two special explorations this month, since I finished DotW in time. I'm glad I don't have another plate so I can wait on it for a bit, lol. Randomly, I tried a Peach Green Tea Lemonade from Starbucks today, and it was delicious. @Amberfunk Sounds fun! I hope you have a good birthday! -------------------- |

A classmate had actually seen a partial scalping happen. Oh god nonononononooooooooooo that's horrible. A quick scroll back through my shiny recorder shows me that the most shinies I hatched in one day is four and that was on May 17. Two were flabebes for the SWSH and the other two were randoms I had signed up for. -------------------- |

Looks like my record hunt completion in a day is 5....but that was during a 12 shiny week. I ended up with 9 over a 2 day stretch, too. It was pretty ridiculous.

Randomly, I tried a Peach Green Tea Lemonade from Starbucks today, and it was delicious. Mmmm, I love those. If I'm not getting my usual unsweetened iced tea (usually black or green) or an upside down caramel macchiato, I go for a tea lemonade of whatever flavor I feel like. I only get one pump of the syrup in it, though, since it's too sweet for me otherwise. Man, I could go for one right now. -------------------- Check my GPXPlus journal to see what I contributed to the site! Interested in a commission? PM me. |
