Since the vault opened, I've unlocked 65 spaces. By no means all that I wanted or needed, but it was what I could afford. We paid out for the islands. We paid for every habitat on those islands. I'm actually glad I got those early vault spots for gems because after I use my keys, I don't even want to think about the number of gems the next slot will cost. But it's management and balace. 80 slots will keep me busy for awhile.

I'm very excited about this change. Space has been an issue for me and gems are hoarded and spending them in the vault had been necessary, but not appreciated. This will give me much needed space and time to regroup my habitats and hatch. More keys coming in the monthly calendar is great, too.

While the gems in dungeons decreased, I did notice we now have one more daily gem in goals, which balances that out.

But the chance of getting gems in roulette is gone - I guess the treasure rooms replace those.

At the end of week 1, I was able to keep up with them without begging for stamina, so that's a good thing.

I've enjoyed these events in the past. A week left me with enough time to hatch monsters that have been sitting in storage for ages and devote time to ranking up others. Last time around, the points needed were increased, but I could still get some chests.

This time we have 3 days. That isn't even close to be workable without investing gems. I'm still doing a little to try to get the first chest or two, but the third is out of my reach and it's frustrating to see what was a fun event become something only for those who buy gems.

Mine triggered automatic rewards over the weekend when I entered the game. I suppose SP will remove the tokens at some point.

I don't mind the new missions, although it has made us have to rethink how we're doing things, and basically, if it wasn't for the posts on here listing what was coming, we'd be struggling a lot more. But our team is just trying to get to 3 stars, which still feels possible for us, and we're pulling together as a team better than we have before.

My personal guess would be during the grand prix sometime to distract gems one way or the other.

For those of you moving along in the race, is it going to call for all of the elements or is it just mainly sticking to fire, nature, thunder, and earth?

What was the compensation? I have enough cells to craft him, but not the space currently. Did I have to actually craft him for the compensation?

It's Pixelion. And I'm fairly ticked about. I ranked him up and after seeing this realized my point count was short. If the monster is not the desired outcome, it shouldn't count as breedable. I even want to argue that if Monstergram doesn't label the monster as breedable, it shouldn't count as breedable.
