Contest Cost Increase (posted 8:56)

The cost for running a contest with no restrictions has increased sharply ... while cost for a contest with restrictions has increased a bit. The more restrictions the lower the cost. Previously it was too easy to open a contest that cost almost nothing to enter and cover your costs with just a couple of entries.

Site Slow (posted 5:49)

Some of you may have noticed Grophland being slow today. This appears to have been caused by a large Denial of Service attack aimed at our service providers.

Rainbow Grophs (posted 3:43)

Announcing the official openeing of the Ebay Aution winners ... OZ! The winners of the auction (who wish to remain anonymous) have created a wonderful Rainbow special, which you can see just by going to the Oz lookup. Better still we have decided that this Rainbow should be breedable by anyone! It is a complex breeding challenge but it is there for everyone, so enjoy!

Breeding Info (posted 1:33)

The Breeding info page has now been updated with eye colours

Eye Colours (posted 3:51)

After a week or so of testing, and a lot of voting, the new eye colours have been introduced properly today. All existing Grophs now have an eye colour based on their body image (as they have done for the past week), while new Grophs will have eye colours based on their parents just like with body colours. Cheap eye drops to turn Grophs's eyes black (i.e. the old style) will be available soon.

As with any new feature there is a chance that some part of the system will not work as expected. If you see any odd problems with eye colours when using the breeding or hatchery features, please let us know.
