Tomomori Valley's Bulletins
Happy holidays everyone! We've come bearing the gift of updates. Finally!
December Sign-Up Reminder
This month, we're giving out invitations to sign-up to Tomomori Valley! (Exclusive to our discord members!) We'll be manually inviting people over the next month and closing once again in January to see how we fare.
Please visit the December 2022 Sign-Up thread in the #species-discussion forum to request a code!
Bunyums are BACK Babey!
If you've successfully signed up to Tomomori-Valley.com, you'll be able to roll for a bunyum every week like before!

Site Roadmap

Hewwo everyone! It's been awhile and we're very sorry about the radio silence. We've been working hard on both species this time and we're finally at a place to reveal our progress!
We'll be merging Gilded Cafe with Tomomori Valley, to prevent confusion and to keep things simpler for us. We'll also be leaving Toyhou.se as our main hub and moving to our own site, tomomori-valley.com. It's built with Lorekeeper so users will have their own accounts and submissions/shops/gachas/etc will hopefully be less of a hassle!
We've moved the species, masterlists, and item catalogues. User banks will be moved upon request after the user has signed up and verified their account. We'll also slowly be migrating everything from Gilded Cafe Toyhou.se/DeviantArt/etc. to Tomomori Valley Toyhou.se/DeviantArt/etc.
You can help by moving your Gilded Cafe Toyhou.se World characters to the Tomomori Valley Toyhou.se World.
Sign-ups are currently closed, we will be cycling in members slowly, as to not overwhelm the site. We'll make an announcement when we begin handing out registration codes. In the meantime, we will continue to use the Tomomori Valley Toyhou.se World for any updates to characters!
While we're still in the early phases of development, we ask that you double check ownerships and artist/design credits! If someone signs up and verifies with your old Toyhou.se username, the design will be credited to them on-site. We want to prevent this as much as possible!
The spring event is officially closed!! Hope everyone who joined had fun 💖
The shop is now open!! You can use both USD and Gold~ MYO’s, blessings and more are available!
Some final thoughts: the DTE winner will be announced this friday. Also, we’ll be going into semi-hiatus to rework some stuff and brainstorm some other. More info soon!
The DTE for the first half of spring ends about a week from now (April 24 11PM CT), don't miss out!
Note: If you were wondering whether the end date of the first half changed, you are right! We made a mistake when writing the event, and accidentally wrote a date a week too early. Sorry for the inconvenience!
Finally, the time has come for Tomomori Valley to inaugurate with our very first event!! The event is split in two, and the first half is now available. It has a variety of activities to complete, giving everyone a chance to participate, obtain rewards & enter the DTE!
Once the event ends, its respective event store will open for two weeks to let everyone cash in their rewards.
Thank you everyone & have fun!
To better understand our community and their expectations, we have prepared a survey for y'all to complete! It will take maybe 5 minutes and will really help us out. We will also give 25 gold (Tomomori currency) to all those who complete it.
Tomo Pre-Release Survey
Responses close March 18th
Context for those who may be a little lost: read this bulletin for info about this group and our plans, join our discord server, or ask us anything on the help desk.
Thank you so much!!
We have a lot to announce, particularly important for users of the Planet Tikobu and Eternal Realms species groups, so please take your time and read carefully!
Tomomori Valley is an upcoming, casual ARPG species group open for all to join. It’s going to be made up of two rebooted species (Obscura/Shokoki and Afearians) as well as four completely new species! We started working on Tomos almost 3 years ago now and hope you guys come to love them as much as we do.
While we have tons of fun stuff planned for the future, we need to beta test a few mechanics that are based on user participation and to hammer out events. This beta will only last a year at most. We also set-up a pre-release survey to help us prepare, and a permanent feedback & suggestions form.
The toyhou.se world and discord server are already open to join!
Masterlists and player banks have already been transferred into Tomomori Valley, please check on your information to make sure it’s correct. If any information is incorrect, or you can't find your bank, consider looking up the former usernames you went by or contacting a mod for help. Any incorrect information can be updated here, please make sure to provide proof.
Users with MYO designs in either group have been granted the item Boon of Distortion - this lets you completely redesign your character - it does not expire and can be used on a different design later. Not applicable on official designs.
If you own an obscura or an obscura turned shokoki and would like to transfer or revert a design, please check the Shoko design guide for more information.
Thank you so much for reading! If you have any questions please refer to the Help Desk.
