Something Loving This Way Comes??

Update 2/5: The same pre-event update has hit for iOS users.  Remember…this is NOT the actual Event.  Not yet.  This is just preparing your device for when TinyCo “flips the switch”.

Hello There Clammers!

As a few of our Kindle players mentioned last night in the comments, TinyCo has released the basic update for Valentine’s Day to Kindle devices.  No, this is not THE Valentine’s Day update.  Instead this is just the basic App store drop (changes to the icon- Valentine’s Peter , but Splash Screen is the same for now), so the Kindle Players will be able to start the update once TinyCo “Flips the switch” (we hope).  We’ve seen TinyCo do this before with events like Comic-Con & Halloween.  Since they have no control over when the update will be approved by various markets, they’ll release the basic update in advance, but not turn it on yet.

Personally, I think this is a great move my TinyCo.  Amazon has been notoriously SLOW at approving TQFS updates, which puts our Kindle friends at a massive disadvantage to starting events.  Now, they should be able to start right on time with the rest of us!

Now there were a few sneak peaks at the upcoming Valentine’s Day Event with the Kindle release…and while I’m not one to post something for the sake of posting it, I know some of you are chomping at the bit to get some Valentine’s Day Spoilers.  So let’s see just what was previewed with the Kindle Update….

This is something we have been talking about doing since before the Addicts sites were formed. Meeting up with a community of players, people like us. Just hanging out, chatting, playing the game, and having a blast. Well, we want to keep that idea rolling along.

In continuing our efforts to bring together this Community of Amazing Gamers and Players, we have set our sites on the Next Meet and Greet opportunity. As you know we love involving YOU in all that we do, we are putting this out there to get feedback on your thoughts.

This is what we have so far…

The Addicts Meet & Greet will take place on the East Coast. Most likely the New Brunswick area of New Jersey.

The Date will be a Saturday Evening around the end of March

We “might” have some cool treats and beverages on hand for you as well as “possibly” some sweet Swag. 😉

So we are now leaving it to YOU. We want to get a place reserved an ensure we have ample room for us all. Are YOU interested in coming? If so, does this location work for YOU? The rough date? Time? Let us know, we really would love to hear from you as well as get a chance to MEET you too. 😉

UPDATE BUNNY: Putting this up top, but it looks like they have finally set the end date as January 15th! So make sure your Characters are unlocked by then. 

UPDATE ALISSA: If you have the Pet Cemetery from Halloween this can also be used to drop Black Necklaces.  Sorry for not having the info yesterday…I didn’t have it in my town (it’s in inventory).  So pull those Cemeteries from inventory!
