As Carmen pointed out, yesterday was a 3x day. Also, to celebrate the new year, every 2011 points one got on their Activity Score gave them a chance at a Legendary egg. Hope everyone participated, and be sure to keep a slot free if you did, just in case. Also,
the third site wide Shiny Hunt has been announced, with sign ups hopefully opening sometime today. Good luck to all who enter!
Now, a personal update. Unsurprisingly, none of my Shiny Hunts have gone anywhere. I have canceled one of them, so I have a spot for the Site Shiny Hunt, which I will be participating in. Still no word on what the jewels are for, so that's something to look for in the coming weeks. I took advantage of the 3x day to level up some of my Pokemon, need to evolve Richard and Alec, and Dylan and Shane are in the process of leveling up to 100.
Finally, Louie and Autumn, I appreciate the fact that the two of you are so eager to share your exploits with the rest of us. This is something I support to the fullest. However, I would like for the constant stream of one-liner posts to simmer down a bit. If I may suggest something, perhaps wait a little, until you have enough events to string together a paragraph, and then tell us all that at one time? It makes things a bit easier to read through for the rest of us, and besides, if you wait a bit before telling us, I doubt the two of you would ever be short on updates, considering how much it seems that you do on the site. If either of you have any questions that you need immediately answered, and do not want to wait for more things to develop, then you can PM your questions to me, and I will answer them to the best of my ability.
