All ice cream is now for all beings, no matter how many legs.

The July 4th event, for the first time in a few years, does not involve TBS AT Fields or invasions.

Instead, it's a walk in the park. Well, a park overrun by monsters that adjust to your level. Normal-type fights, not skirmish; it's a bit like Goonzu.

If you missed out on all of the ambrosia and waters of life from the earlier events, now's your chance to stock up, as both drop plentifully. The primary drop, however, is a new type of redeemable ticket that can buy you all kinds of goodies, including a new tank mount that's even better than the Atlantis Mars Bike that they gave away for free a few months ago (the tank can also be upgraded to a rare mount by using an IM-only gamble box). The basic tank cannot be traded, but the rare version can, and it's currently going for 60B-70B gold for any IMers out there fond of gambling. You can also easily obtain a Patriot merc for the first time since his introduction event last year.

Alas, there is no loitering or camping allowed in the park; if you log in for an hour a day, you earn a ticket that lets you into the park for an hour.

Also, the next Atlantica Day is 7/6; bonus everything, Atlantica Day coupons, etc.

Oh, and finally, there was an inter-server competition recently; our server won, which gave us a nice buff for a week. It also gave all characters (above 80?) 3 free keys to the Honey Jar dungeon, so you can potentially run it up to 9 times.

I might have to take a break from working on my project to come and play again. Free mercs are always nice.
