Mabel is permanently hue-shifted - she won’t drift with your pets, and will retain her color even if you swap her for someone else’s Mabel (or, you know, sell her or what have you). :D
aaa idk who to ping but i accidentally inputted my username as my old one, not my new one (old one was Faith) >~< do i have to submit another response?
Feedback on the feedback: Would it be possible (in the future maybe) to give an N/A option in addition to the Likert scales? Or more neutral options in general? I felt some of the questions on the form this time around were leading - meant to push responses in a certain direction.
Since the pets were beyond my reach, it doesn’t make sense to ask me how useful/inspiring they are. At first I thought the “not applicable” answer was meant to include “because I couldn’t buy them” as well as general feelings about the coats, but then I wasn’t sure. It’s like asking someone who can’t read which font is better - If you mean just aesthetically, that’s one set of answers, but if you mean which one causes the least eyestrain, the answers are moot.
(nb: I edited the above paragraph for clarification a few hours after posting!)
Likewise, the question about the relative probabilities of the bags doesn’t have a neutral option. For me, it depends on so many other mitigating factors like price/effort, aesthetics, etc that I don’t have an opinion on the question as it stands, but that doesn’t necessarily mean I “liked” the current set up.
Also, there’s a question where the options are
1 The pet should have been more expensive than the mushroom
2 I liked that they were the same price
3 The mushroom should have been more expensive than the pet
These options don’t reflect the event accurately. Since there were no pets in toad bags, the mushroom (one of them at least) was guaranteed to be cheaper than the pet, so saying “I like that they were the same price” is false. Likewise, saying “the pet should have been more expensive than the mushroom” is odd because the pet (or at least, one of them) was already more expensive than the mushroom.
More accurate options should have been
1 I liked that the pet was more expensive than the mushrooms
2 They should have been the same price
3 The mushroom should have been more expensive than the pet
Or possibly making it more clear that you are asking people to imagine their feelings as if there were no toad bags in the shop at all.
I’d also be interested to see how many people actually bought the pets (and mushrooms) from the shop, if there are plans to do any kind of post-event data breakdown.
Loved the event ending! This whole event made me wish I was more inclined to write lore and stories for my pets here because speaking with the Lost just screams a good story centered around my Lina! Maybe one day…but for now I can at least fawn in my head.
Lina hears the voices of the Lost all day, every day, to the point where she worries that she’s going insane. During the Cave Chronicles event I had a great time coming up with and expanding her story. =D Her twin brother is one of the Lost and this event would be a wonderful way for her to have a conversation with him!
And yaaay for Mabel! Mabel can go right here with Lina…

Common Comments
Having two dichotomous coats made the event feel too hard.
This was the most common critique of the event. Many of you wanted to get one of each pose (4 coats total) since each pose was different, whereas the event was calibrated toward one of each coat (2 coats total), making the event in general too tough because of the high prices. You generally liked that they were dichotomous, but really didn’t like that they were hard to collect. We will keep this in mind when creating coats and calibrating in the future!
You liked that you could buy the pet directly.
We implemented this change based on feedback from past events, and it was well received, with comments saying as much. There were also many comments telling us that making them the same price as the mushroom was a good move.
You liked the wrap-up/lore aspect.
We got some really cute comments about Mabel and how the lore was integrated into the events. We’re glad you like the story aspect we included! :)
Love/hate with click-style events.
A few of you expressed that our Scrabble event is your favorite event that we host, while a few of you expressed that you much prefer other styles of events! We do hear these types of comments with every event we host, and work on diversifying the types of events we host to hit a sweet spot for everyone — thanks for sticking with us! <3
That dras coat, though!
You really liked how the dras coat had so many toggle options.. omnomnomnom. Toggles are great!
Please expand the dictionary!
A sentiment expressed by some of you.. we will be adding many of your suggested words to our dictionary, and will continue to ask for input after our word-creating events. :)
Thank you all for taking time to give us feedback! It’s very helpful to see the event’s strengths and weaknesses so that we can make even better events for you! <3
We will pull the raffle tonight utilizing the code that we use for normal raffles, so keep an eye out!
