  Stars and Needles Relaunch Update!   


We are Relaunching the Stitch-I-Mals species fully and hope to breathe new life to the species fully! With this, We will be giving out prizes and tokens of our thanks to the community! 

-Sharing this post as a Bulletin on TH or DA linking to it will gain you: A Rare Trait and 15 Star Stitches.

-Referring a friend: 10 Star Stitches and a Rare Trait for yourself and the friend if they join the Species.

-To claim the prizes listed above fill this out and post in a comment here!

Now to speak on things that we all have been looking forward to!

The Relaunch Event is a week-long starting January 7-14th! We here in the Stitchies Universe are excited to introduce a few things to you all in the community as well as change a few things!

So let's get this all started with an introduction of a few things!

Alter Buttons - ($2.50 or 25 Star Stitches) An item that will allow you to edit major parts of your stitchies,

--- You may NOT edit skin tone or weight! 

--- Can only edit up to 80% of a design with this item or add traits you have won or purchased! 

--- MUST NOT edit the original art of a Stitchie unless you did the art yourself!
--- ALWAYS ask the artist of the design you want to edit before editing! 

These will be available starting today for any premade, be it official or MYO. 

Welcome Bag- Upon joining the species be it you own a Stitchie or not you will receive a Welcome Bag From now on (Jan.7, 2022)! 

The Bag will include the following!

--- Open Bank Account: 50 Star Stitches

--- 25 Extra Star Stitches: In species currency that can be used for MYO Slots and Traits!

--- 1 Rare Trait

Moving onto the Changes we as a species are going to move to.

Masterlist:

--- All Stitchies made will be placed on the Masterlist going forward! It does NOT matter the rarity of the slot they were made from! Masterlist

--- ALL MYO slots will need to be approved going forward, this is to help us place them on the masterlist and keep track of where the species go when traded/gifted/sold.

--- We will NO LONGER be on DA at all, we are separating ourselves from that platform as a lot through the years have happened with the platform and while you may all use it we as a species are no longer to be there ourselves! 

--- MUST have a TH account to be in the species. 

--- Discord will be our most active platform but it is NOT necessary to join it if you do not wish for it but we do hold Raffles on the Discord only randomly. 

--- The species is moving forward and becoming 16+ for many reasons. I will speak on this in DMs if needed, but please DO NOT argue on it. This is mostly for the safety of our members. (All members under this age that are ALREADY in the species will be exempt from that change in age and allowed to stay!)
--- You MUST contact Owner Nik-L-Nips or head Admin InfamousSol if you are trading a Stitchie, if you are NOT on Discord.
--- We have introduced a Ticket System into the Discord Server and Will be doing Bank Updates, Trades, Alters/Edits in the Discord. If you do NOT have Discord these things can be done in DMs. 

--- Any and ALL art will be rewarded in In Species currency, even the first made MYO art/ref sheet.
--- TOS: All Artists have their own TOS and Stitch-I-Mals has its own as well. PLEASE check all these!
--- Monthly Prompts will begin again starting in February, rewards will vary!

Now onto the events of this week! I am sure you all will be excited with everything we are doing! 

Sewing Box Grab - This game is to be hosted on our discord server ONLY! (To Play you need to have an introduction in the discord server) So be sure to join in for the game! (You do NOT have to have a Stitchie to join) The game is basically Bobbing for Apples! 

Reach into the DollMakers Sewing box and see what you grab. Could it be a Trait? Some Star Stitches? Maybe an MYO Slot or even a premade? Maybe a custom?

---Rules:

- You may reach into the Sewing box and Grab a prize two times a day!

- Do not complain about the prize you grab! It is all done through a random number generator! So it is completely random!

  Sewing Box Scavenger Hunt!   

CLOSED!
Open All Relaunch Week

Oh! You have decided to help me out on my Scavenger hunt it seems! Well, I thank you for that! It seems I have misplaced some of my amazing and rare Golden Safety Pins! They are magical and highly needed to create new Stitchies! So any help is amazing! I can of course reward you for each one you all find! Find all 7 of them and the reward grows!

I know I last saw them when I was looking around the Toyhouse world, possibly in some Bulletins? Maybe in the owner's account and admins account? I am not quite sure though, I can not help much as my memory is foggy and I have been working so hard creating new Stitchies.

 Rules:
- Please be fair and do the scavenger hunt yourself and don't cheat!
- No Arguing overprizes! Every Emoji found is a different prize and will be added to your In Species Bank!


When you have found any or all the Safety Pins please come back here and comment the following: (This is on an honor system, please hunt the safety pins down yourself!)

Username: (Your name for the in Species Bank)
Safety pins found: (beside each safety pin is a number please list it in the order you found them NOT the number order!)

Hello!   
      
I know the server and species have been quiet for a while but this is due to a relaunch of the species being planned out for January! With the relaunch, there will be a week-long event "fair" with games and prizes! Introduction of a new mascot! As well as a launch of a new improved server for the species! (not to mention new TH coding, Star-Stitch Banking update, and Masterlist too!) The server will open to all here before the relaunch, so please keep an eye out for that announcement!

I am here to help you out with whatever you need! I am always around even if silent!

Thank you so much for sticking around and helping the community grow!

If you have made it this far, that final thing wasn't actually the final one! We will be having a free weekend myo event this next weekend (13-15) To celebrate my personal Birthday! I wish to give back to the community of Stitch-I-Mals so this will be the first event I personally host! Look forward to it, please!

(Star and Needle Snippets is the monthly or so newspaper-style update for the Stitch-I-Mals + Star Babies species, thank you for reading!)

Hello! Greetings to all here in the Stitch-I-Mals universe! Today on the 24th of July we have some announcements to make.  

I am sure you all have noticed things changing in the world and the server! We are continuing to world behind the scenes to make the universe even more amazing for you all! So we would like to keep transparency on all things! 

The major announcement as of today Stitch-I-Mals will be under new ownership for the time being until further notice. Due to many things happening in life Fuber64 will be handing the reigns over to Nik-L-Nips. Nik was a co-owner and has experience in species over multiple years, so please do not fret Stitch-I-Mals will continue! 

Sadly though with personal life being as they are Star Babies release will be pushed back to Sept 1st.

We also wish to announce that GA applications will be opening in the month of August for late summer/fall GA adopts! So PLEASE look forward to that! 

Last thing on the list is addressing future of the species as a whole. The admin team and both present owner and Fuber the creator/past owner, want to see Stitch-I-Mals continue, and hopefully blossom more. We have a lovely community, be it quiet at times, but it is lovely the members are sweet, welcoming and helpful. We want to help expand it and continue growing as a whole! So if there is a suggestion PLEASE do not be afraid to message Nik or an Admin about things! They are here to listen! 

With all Love, Stitches and Stars Thank You! -Admin Team
