    TGIF! Here’s your development news round-up for the past week!

    Player Bans October 18 - October 24

    As a reminder, the following numbers are permanently frozen accounts, and don't count temporary freezes.

    FB: 56

    The majority of permanently frozen accounts are frozen for being a shared or alternate account. This is something we actively investigate, and we appreciate players reporting suspicious accounts to us.

    If you have any questions or comments about a frozen account, please direct them through Support as the Forums are not the place to discuss account freezes, because of the sensitive account information involved.

    New Limited Items!

    A new week means new Limited Items! Here’s what’s up for grabs (tomorrow!):

    Movember Monthly Calendar!

    We mustache you a question, but we’re shaving it for later! The Movember Monthly Calendar starts tomorrow morning at 10:00 am PDT and finishes up at the end of the month! And just in case anyone thinks we misspelled “November”: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Movember

    World Chat is Now Free on Facebook and Kano Play Server 1!

    This week we turned off the need for Speakers on World Chat for Facebook and Kano Play Server 1. If you were wondering what happened to your accumulated Speakers, now you know!

    Support Report with your favorite burrowing nocturnal mammal and Answerpreneur, Aardvark!

    Happy Halloween, players!

    Are you stoked for an evening of sugar consumption, cheesy decor, and amusing garments? I am! Although I kind of wish I had constructed something that could be more easily packed up and taken on the bus. ಠ_ಠ

    A tip for your Support tickets! Many player use slang, abbreviations, and other shorthand when talking about the game. This is totally fine, but it's helpful to be aware that a lot of jargon has been made up by small groups of people. Players outside of your normal crowd (and Support staff) might not be familiar with the terms you use.

    Most of the time we can figure out new jargon by look at t context, but this can be challenging if the whole ticket consists of one sentence about how the cadence of the MPG is barring entry on your console, or something.

    You can help us figure out your issue more quickly by using the same language used by the game itself, or by including a quick definition in brackets the first time you use a term that might not be universally known. Screenshots are also very handy! :)

    Cheers,

    I came here to inform you that Kano had misspelled "Movember", but then I read it was purposely spelled that way and referred to your Wikipedia link (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Movember) - So, I too will now be growing my mustache for the entire month of November! I will post some pics for you as it starts growing in some "mo"! :p

    I would love to do that, except for 3 reasons: 1) I can't grow a halfway decent moustache, 2) I don't think my employer would care for it, and--most importantly--3) my wife would probably throw me out of the house.

    This is actually going to be the first year in a couple years that I'm not growing a 'mo, but we do have a couple Kano folks who are growing one out!

    Haha, the only person at Kano who can grow a decent moustache in a month is @Smack. I'm pretty sure it's his secret mutant superpower.

    Are you serious mi7ch - you're NOT going to participate? Mine is a few days along now and my girlfriend HATES this stage because it "pricks" her (no kissing for me, but all for a good cause). Anyway, VERY disappointed to learn @mi7ch will NOT be participating in this - get it together mi7ch and get your "mo" on! :D
