Chocolate Goodies (posted 10:02)

Can't get enough Chocolate? Well look no further, for here are some delights. Moreover eating sweets now makes a Groph increasingly bouncy. Bouncier Grophs get less miserable when left alone than Grophs who have eaten fewer sweets. Beware however! Eating too many sweets may permanently alter your Groph's nature!

Mansion Street (posted 4:40)

Today on Grophland, Grophtown has grown a new street, Mansion Street, where the grandest residences are to be found.

Naturally there are some new items, and some new secrets, to be found within.

Inventory Changes (posted 2:37)

When you drag items to containers they will now show an icon to indicate whether or not you can put it in that container. Hopefully these are self explanatory, but if not ... left is yes, right is no

New Cash and Member's Items (posted 17:06)

At last! New items in the Cash Store!

And for those of you who have already paid your dues (and become paid members), Amadeus has this to sell.

iPads (posted 7:50)

Please note, iPads no longer display the mobile layout by default, and are treated as normal web browsers. If there are other pads incorrectly detecting as mobiles please let me know.

Also for those having problems selecting the tools in the garden on the iPad try clicking the tool icon twice (or holding until it gets a grey outline), this should allow you to water and harvest plants. Dragging and dropping to plant now also works.

Amadeus (posted 16:27)

The Great Amadeus has decided that he needs cheering up, and so calls to his subjects (willing and unwilling) to make him smile! (Features forum will open in a few days for people to submit their ideas and items to make him smile)

Splaterday (posted 16:54)

In honor of this momentous occasion, with the amazing coincidence of 7 mods on at the very same time (3 in the very same room) we declare today Splaterday. Get ready for a surprise.

Fire Festival (posted 9:25)

It's the Fire Festival (mark 2). For one night only buy unique items in the shops, send your Grophs to play with others and return with special Fire Festival items, and get the chance to lay your hands on this brand new avatar!

Fire Festival mark 2 (posted 2:24)

Due to service disruptions at our internet provider many members were not able to enjoy the Fire Festival this year. So as a special one-off we are holding it again! Fire Festival mark 2 will be on Saturday 7th of May ... be there while it's hot!

Fire Festival (posted 0:00)

It's Fire Festival night! Look out for crazed Grophs! If you dare let yours out to play ... if not keep them well hidden! This year Amadeus has a rare supply of Fire Owls for sale ...

New Themes (posted 4:21)

As a result of the heroic efforts of people in the Features forums to craft new themes, we've added two more.

Desert by qrulez, shows a desert view of Grophland, with a Khnaar Groph in the background and a warm mix of yellows and browns.

Nullibrach's Theme by Tommey is a dark and ominous theme in blacks and electric blues, featuring the skeleton of Nullibrach the wizard.

Mailbox space discounted (posted 1:52)

Feel claustrophobic when you look at the 20 message limit on your mailboxes? Think $5 for 30 more messages was too much? Well no longer! Extra mailbox space has now been changed to $1 for each 15 (so less than half the old price). Buy now!

Deadly Secret (posted 7:57)

Some jobs for the Shady Stranger are of exceptional difficulty! If you choose to take these, beware, you will most likely fail! If you do happen to succeed however you should get one of these.

Foxy! (posted 11:29)

Deep in the Undertown it pays to be cunning like a Fox!

Friend Notifications (posted 14:45)

From today, when a friend connects to Grophland, you'll see a little pop up notification in the bottom left corner of the screen. It will go away again after a few seconds. If you don't want to see these simply go to the Friends page (under the Grophnet menu) and uncheck the checkbox.

We've also had some requests for people to be hidden so that they don't appear in notifications and probably also in the active user's menu. We will likely add this to the user preferences in the fairly near future.

Skill search (posted 8:24)

Searching the grophlopedia for a skill, e.g. 'skill gardening', now shows all items that provide that skill. In addition clicking a skill name on an item description gives a listing of what provides that skill, along with the amount provided.

More decoration (posted 5:35)

Add some more color to your Dollshouse.

Blade of Mars and Venus (posted 5:49)

New at the Battle Tower for your delectation!
