The Editorial for this week has just been released.

NEW GAME
The game for this weekend has just been released. Our plan is for this week to be the first week with two games EVERY week released. We should have one every Wednesday and Saturday from now on. Sudoku has replaced the Mahjongg game.

A Sudoku hidden avatar has also been released.

The Lottery has been fixed and has been given a new look. The raffle has also been fixed.

There are two new Hidden Avatars for you to find...

Newth Racing has been updated. Its got a brand new look and its been changed so you can win more MP!

LAYOUT CHANGES
As you should have noticed, Marapets Night Layout has been activated. At 6PM MST until 6AM MST the night time layout is active, and then it returns to the Day layout. Hope you like it! There are also two new Hidden Avatars to find!

We have begun to revamp and improve some of the very old parts of the site. Guess the Weight has been updated. You may need to refresh a few times for the new image to show.

Sorry for the downtime yesterday. We were down for a few hours longer than expected, but the Maintenance was successful. You should notice Marapets is running much better than before. Please note that the maintenance is not complete. For the rest of July there will not be any major maintenance with the whole site closing, but certain areas of the site might be randomly closed for improvement. Thanks for all those that helped us with our bug fixing since we reopened, ALL major problems have been fixed now - the only major part of the site still down is the Two Player Battle Arena. If you find an error after this news post that has not been fixed, please let us know in the Help Forum. Errors before this news post have most likely been fixed already, as our bug list only has 5 things listed to be fixed. Thanks for your patience =D

The Kronk Avatar and the Default Avatar have been updated.

An updated version of the Inside of Baspinar's Castle has been released. Its been completed now and is fully labelled. You may need to refresh a few times for the new map to load.

The three Political Parties have been released inside the castle. Every two months or so Marada has an Election, with the first one starting right now, and the election usually lasts for a month. There are three parties, each with their own Manifesto of changes they will make to the site if they win. Each player has one vote in the election, and at the end the party with the most votes will be in power and the changes they proposed will happen on the site! Use your vote carefully - you cannot change it. You'll also get a cool rosette for the party you stand for added to your profile!


There are three new Hidden Avatars for you to find.

This is just a little warning that the Forums will be going down for major maintenance either tomorrow, or sometime this weekend. We will try to do most work offline and at off peak times, but it could be down for several hours.

The July Account Upgrades have been released. The February upgrades are no longer avaliable, and the March upgrades are now at $20 - they will be gone next month so this is your last chance to get them!

The Whirlpool has been added to the Jenoa map. You can collect the map pieces from the July upgrade to unlock lifetime access to the Whirlpool. You can use it once every 24 hours for your pet. It will give stats, change pet colours, increase school eduaction and could even change your pet into a limited edition pet!
