Notice the notification system (click on the dots, scroll down and confirm the changes) - use it so that you get notified when your selected activities are available to do.

(I think notifications are being worked on, as some of them are giving notice waaaay in advance of when they can be done. So find a notifier with the same time repeat interval that IS working and use that one for the one that isn't working - for example, I use the photo parlour reminder for missions)

Among other things, the very top line of the screen has the current Mara-time , and also has Players Online that you will need to use to do profile visiting in certain events.

Every hour on the hour, the site background changes from day to night, or the reverse. MP Bank and Knutt Knight quest are only open in Mara-daytime, Troll quest is only open in Mara-nighttime.

The background also changes with the different weathers and the seasons. Seasons are purely decorative - but different weathers have an impact on gameplay. In special weathers (like rain or tornado), some shops may close, some may have 2-for-1 specials, and there may be other changes too. Just scroll down a bit, there's another blog containing excerpts from the News that describes the changes for each weather. (If you get a message saying your wig has blown off, you don't need to buy a new one, just reload your selfie.)

About the Jelly Castle and Waffle Wobble forum threads - "There is no rule about tagging other players. If players want to know when it's jelly hour they can add this topic to their favourites and get an alert each time there is a post" .. so you might want to do that.

About Greedy Fairy : The header says she rewards whoever has most of an item in their gallery (it does not specify how many). But a staff member told me you must have at least 100 of the item to win. There used to be no requirement, I saw someone win with 2 ancient newspapers once.

Item Retirement

Every so often, items get retired from the main shops. This includes shops that require other forms of currency other than MP, such as BP, RP and OP. Every so often, check out the Retirement Planning "shop" in Puchalla Village. If something is going to be retired soon, grab a few of them. After an item is retired, the price will usually skyrocket in price.

Time Machine
Never again. Thirty items in there, and I'm lacking most of them. One toy and 29 wardrobe items and learnies. I got the toy. Happened before. The chances are not even in these machines. Not gonna bother.


Pixie Dice : roll a 2 or a 12

There is a Foxfire Forest goal where you have to roll a 2 or a 12 - i.e., snake eyes or boxcars.

The chance of rolling a 1 on the first die is 1/6. The chance of rolling a 1 on the second die is also 1/6. So the chance of both happening is 1/36.

Similarly, the chance of rolling a 6 on both dice is also 1/36.

The chance of either of those two rolls happening is 1/36 + 1/36 = 1/18

So about every 18 times of playing Pixie Dice, the player should roll either a 2 or a 12.

The game is available every 16 hours, I probably do it once every 20 hours.

So I should win about every 18 * (20/24) = 15 days.

I have been working on that goal for months.

So, loaded dice. It's fun figuring out these things, anyways :slight_smile:

(Only needed for Foxfire goals, not needed to get to Marada goal 75)


Seven Heaven : Win with 6+ Multiplier (roll 5 doubles)

The chance to roll 1 & 1 is 1/6 * 1/6 = 1/36. Same for the other doubles.
The chance to roll any of the 6 possible doubles is 6 * (1/36) = 1/6
The chance to do that 5 times is 1/6 ** 5 = 1/7776

So, on the average, 7776 times. Less actually, since you have 9 rolls in which to get the 5 doubles. Let's say 7776 * 5 / 9 = 4320 times.

You can try every 3 hours, that's 8 tries/day, so that means an average of 4320/8 = 540 days, assuming you play every 3 hours.

IF you do it EVERY THREE HOURS, that's 1.5 years.

But no one is going to play the game EVERY 3 HOURS - since people have lives and sleep, 3 years is probably a better estimate ......

..... ahem .... IF you roll no 7s, ever ....

Yup, there's that part to the game as well. If you roll a 7, your game is over, even if it was your first roll. To get 5 doubles, you have to NOT roll a 7 at least 5 times - and 7 is the most common roll.

On the average, 1/6 of the time, the sum of the dice will be 7, and 5/6 of the time it will not be 7. So the chance of not getting a 7 in the first 5 rolls is (5/6) ** 5 = .402 - and 3
