August Community Thread!


The July Community thread has been moved here.

UPDATE: The gaming post is now gone. We didn't really use it much after the first month, so I've decided to drop it. Thanks for understanding!

Hey guys! Did you all enjoy last month's thread? (: I hope so! Every month a new community thread will be made and the old one will be discarded into the archives. I don't want a super huge thread to continue to get even bigger, so I hope everyone is excited for a fresh start every month!

If you're new here then don't be shy! The community thread is the place to come and chat with fellow members of the site who share a common interest with you. Talk about whatever you want, whether it's GPX related or something going on in your personal life, just be sure to read the rules first before posting. There's always someone on the forums to read and respond to your posts, so chat away and maybe you'll meet some great people!

Rules
  • Regular forum rules still apply here. Basically don't double post. Don't ask for clicks every time you fill your party. Unless it gets out of hand*, I'm okay with you linking to an exploration Pokemon who needs a specific berry.

    *out of hand meaning I don't want to see Pokémon being linked just for leveling or if they need drinks for happiness. These kinds of interactions can be handled just fine by being in your parties and signatures.

  • Do not post your shinies here, there's a shiny thread for that. Discussing them is OK though! Just make sure you add content to your post.

  • [NEW] Make sure your post contains worthwhile content. If you're posting an exploration Pokémon to be fed berries then be sure to add other content to your post. Same with discussing shinies. Find people to reply to or start a discussion yourself! Your post must, with the shiny portion and berry feeding hypothetically removed*, not read as if you're talking to yourself. To clarify, your post should not be an out-loud thought to yourself, and should contain more general discussion than just information on your current shiny luck.

    *if you were to read your post, skipping over any mention of shinies, the post should still sound like a good post.

    If any posts are found breaking this rule then they will be instantly deleted and handed a 10% warn.

  • [NEW] Do not post your GPX+ gear grinders in this thread either. There's also a thread for that. This is mostly for raging at staff or site events that you don't like.

    Hopefully helpful examples! (click to show)

  • Do not litter your post with swear words.

  • [UPDATED] Memes and Gifs are allowed, but don't overuse them. If the thread turns into nothing but meme and gif replies, I'll give everyone a 10% warn that was involved because it's just plain out spam! Make you put these in a spoiler tag.

  • No quote pyramids! Be sure to cut out everything that was before what you're replying to. They can get long and make a page annoying to scroll through, so be considerate to your fellow members!

  • A post must be AT LEAST one sentence long. If you’re saying hi or bye to someone be sure to add something more to your post.

  • [NEW] If you'd like to advertise something, then be sure you put it in your signature. Youtube, Deviantart (No smut), Fanfication (No smut), adoptable sites, your own minecraft servers are all fine. Send a PM if you have any questions about anything else!

    If you're a twitch streamer, and want to invite others to your stream, then go ahead and make a post about it so everyone can know.
Monthly Raffle - Updated for new method

Nominations are now gone, and I'm using post count to determine how many entries you have into the raffle. The first 19 posts you have will count as one entry, and every ten after that will count as an extra. Think of it as the first number of your post count is how many entries you have. To see what your post count is, click on the number of replies any certain thread has. Nothing else on the site will influence the amount of entries you receive, so if you'd like a chance to win, then post here frequently!

The raffle is what chooses who gets to choose what's in next month's egg distribution. There are no other site advantages other than that, and even then the whole site gets a chance at that Pokémon that you chose!

August Egg Distribution!


How to get an egg from this event
  • You must keep at least one slot open in your party.
  • You MUST have logged in sometime on GPX+ in the last two weeks.
  • You can not be in the restricted group.
IMPORTANT EVENT NOTES
  1. No, you do NOT have to be online at the time I am sending out eggs.
  2. These eggs do NOT show up in the Lab for the event. They are sent out randomly.
  3. There is ONE set shiny for each Pokémon, but every other egg has a regular chance of being shiny.
  4. If you obtain ONE of the eggs from this event, you will NOT be able to obtain another one from this same event. This means if you get an egg on day 1 of this event, you can't get an event egg from any other day during this event. By the way, abandoning an event egg does nothing. So if you get one you might as well keep it and be happy.
  5. If we find any accounts being made just to get eggs from the event then they will be immediately banned along with your main.
  6. If you were a winner of the raffle, your chosen Pokémon will be spawned into your party on the day of the event. It won't be forced shiny, but there's always a small chance just like any other egg! This will not count as an event egg and you can still receive one from the event.
  7. There is no guarantee that you'll receive an egg. There have been about 3k users online daily and there are only 1,750 eggs going out, so that at least gives you a little more than a 50% chance at getting something.
  8. Eggs chosen will not be available to pick from again for 3 months. If x egg was in the January egg distribution, then it can not be chosen again until April.
  9. The event runs at 4 p.m. server time.
Event dates and what's being handed out
  • August 2nd: Rayquaza - Winner: The Majestic Mr L - 350 eggs
  • August 3rd: Zekrom - Winner: Lord Raven - 350 eggs
  • August 4th: Kyurem - Winner: Gryphaena - 350 eggs
  • August 5th: Past Misdreavus - Winner: Rhapsody - 350 eggs
  • August 6th: Jirachi - Winner: Glaceon Trainer - 350 eggs

I hope I can get a shiny out of the egg distro. Past Misdreavus is one of my favorite novelties because it comes from one of the best Pokemon. <3

Oh bye gaming thing. To be honest we probably should have used that more. :/ Ah well.
Anyway, wow a PMD novelty. And after all the talk of those games to boot.

Oh and yes I was one of the winners, yup yup.

Yay, another month~ I hope I have more luck with the scavenger hunt. I thought the gaming post was a good idea, but I didn't see much ever get planned. My Pixelmon server is still running strong if anyone wants to hang out on there. We actually host events a few times a week, including a fun walls minigame we're doing today/tomorrow. I don't want to self promote much though, so sweat.gif

You look to your feet, and find a Salamencite. Congratulations!

Huh. So Gryphaena has a chance to get the whole Kyurem line all in one month? Interesting. And also? Does that mean there were 5 winners last month? {Since there are no eggs labeled "Mystery", I mean.}

New normal explo? I need to hurry up and finish TBD then.

Galladite! (:

Still watching the stream, it's been awesome. I think I might do their "get into speedrunning" thing since I can totally learn a Pokemon Red route in three weeks?!

Hatched two shinies total from the SWSH, never got a Carbink, but that's okay...I'll get to unlock Quitter later. cat.gif Congrats to the Wulfenites, well played!

Also, happy birthday to all the people with birthdays in August! My boyfriend's is the 10th grin.gif

I wasn't feeling creative and went the easier route. haha :P

So far I haven't received a reply from the last winner, hopefully they'll check before their scheduled date. If not, I can just host a strawpoll. (In case anyone is wondering about the last one.)

Guh, it's been so hard to play lately because I have this terrible pain in my right wrist that's been flaring up after I get off of work. Probably too much typing AT work. It's making it extra difficult to play.

But YAY RAYQUAZA! Gonna try for one both for mega reasons and shiny reasons.

I also got my wish. I completed a plate mid-way through DotW so now I want to see if i somehow get that one instead. There is no way I'm embarking it for a third time so soon though. I think my arm needs to recover (maybe thats why it hurts lol)
