Lottery

Well...never would I have anticipated things turning out this way!   What an exciting time it has been for all of us!  I confess, when I realized the few isopteron cocoons that the Mad Scientist couldn't take had actually hatched...!  Well, Lord Apollo has assured that these strange creatures are actually safe.  Peculiar, but safe.  They remain locked in dormancy due to the power they absorbed during their time in the cocoons.  I think I'll pass mine on to someone else, but I am sure there are many among us more than happy to provide them with...loving...homes.

It seems as though that all of the cocoons hatched, as nobody has reported coming across any more of them lately.  Only the empty ones remain.  However, it seems the isopterons themselves may still be able to be found in the caves...somewhere...

Although he is going to be sequestered in his laboratory for the foreseeable future working on the portal to Solaria, Frederick has asked me to extend his deepest and sincere thanks to everyone who helped make his experiments such a success.  He says that although it will take him some time to finish, it will not be too much longer before we can finally visit our sister world in safety.  I am looking forward to all of the stories yet to be heard!  So much left to add to my library!

Frederick also said to me that he was absolutely overwhelmed by the generosity and tireless efforts given to him.  Never could he have anticipated such a response as he was given.  Although it was not originally part of his plans, he wanted to abide by his promise to compensate those who helped him.  So the rewards were boosted in the end for those who turned in above and beyond what he thought to ask for.  If you participated, you would have received your rewards by now!

 
All participating players received at least two of these items:

Jar of Bugs, Glitch Energy, Glitch Energy Black, Prototype Portal Wallpaper

In addition, those who went far and beyond received 5 CWP (those who turned in at least 500) or 10 CWP (those who turned in 1000 or more).

What else is there to come?  At this point, anything is possible!  As we await Frederick completing the portal, we can only speculate.  But whatever it is, I am sure it will be just as memorable!!
