Saturday 2/6 (13:23):
Character Creation Date many of you post-recode people can now see your creation date in the Change Info page, at the bottom - I worte a little thing to pull it for you. Pre-recode and slighty-after-recode peeps, it'll just tell you that you are old school. :)
Monday 2/1 (11:17):
Summons used during MegaMissions now "poof" AFTER they give their bonus, so all you Ryo-hunters can use Mr. Orange on them. Also, looking into putting a 'quicksummmon' button on the Mission page..
Friday 1/29 (9:22):
TsukiBall MegaGames at Tsuki Level 20 you may now start to play games for 20x the cost/tix/items/TsukiXP. (each time is rolled separately, so if you only get 1 tsukiball, that means you rolled 20 times to get one, and only got 1 - stop sending BRs kthx)
Wednesday 1/27 (13:18):
WorldKaiju Update (brought to you by the "Give Them Enough Rope" Foundation)
1. Armor does not lower Ranking - hit a WK for 10K, get 10K rank, even if it has 10% Armor.
11. Summoners may now Enrage their WorldKaiju when summoned - every level of Enrage gives them 25% more Armor, and +1 Emblems per Earned Rank when destroyed. Each level of Difficulty adds an additional WEEK to the penalty to the Summoner if the Kaiju is not destroyed. o_o Check yourself before you wreck yourself..
Wednesday 1/27 (8:47):
Regarding the lack of Free-For-All WorldKai - I'm looking into possible options. You'll hear more later on today. -11
Tuesday 1/26 (0:51):
Science 5 Fixed (again) - Villages after the Tuesday Morning Dayroll that were affected in the past few days will be getting refunds + kai bonuses.Update: Bonuses given, also combo-joining bug in WK fixed. Also, there is a quest that requires 500+ WK swings: those weren't counted right away, so you might need a few more than it says. check your WK page to see the current count.
Sunday 1/24 (11:40):
How to get Good Boy 3 is being changed, as testing has shown that the original way (beat a diff 6+ synch) is too rare a window. For the new way, if it requires a 'counter' of something, previous things that would have 'counted' towards it won't 'count', so don't BR if you already did whatever it is 2x, and it needs 10x, and you don't get it until 12x. -_-
On a completely different note, it now shows the total of swings ever when you attack, and the counting of that number was not done correctly until right now, so don't BR it.
Sunday 1/24 (9:05):
Two things (WorldKai and Mahjong) - first, you shouldn't be able to join more than one Combo a day, that's a bug, it'll be fixed ASAP.
Second, I'm thinking of taking a couple weeks of HPW / housingcode break from Billy proper while I work on the How to Play, so I'm looking for something to code for fun (and then put into Billy, of course, like Roulette and Tsukiball were). How about a one-player Mahjong? All my buddies and I play it, and it might be fun to put into the game. No multiplayer, because that is hard - just you versus Billy peeps. TALK ABOUT IT IF YOU WANT IT (in the General Forums)
Saturday 1/23 (10:04):
Congrats to Quetz on defeating the first WorldKai! So you folks know, you were supposed to get two emblems of each rank for being in the top 11, it only gave you one. I'm fixing that now..
Friday 1/22 (9:39):
Leader Change Max You may now only change Leadership in Villages up to three times per day.
Thursday 1/21 (12:47):
WorldKai Stat Fix they were all Gen. Now they aren't. fixed!
Tuesday 1/19 (16:41):
Quick Deliveries If you have beaten a Delivery Difficulty 20 or more times, you may 'work in the back' to quickly run through your Deliveries for Coins and Tips.
Monday 1/18 (17:42):
ARTZ
Sunday 1/17 (1:11):
Unexpected Downtime - the server was down for abotu 1.5-2hrs from 11PM to 1A Billytime. Reason: Failboats. Resolution: Failboats launched into sun. Issues - Robo Tourneys from that time did not roll. Looking into any other errors. Please refrain from BRing anything unles it is a specific problem with your character (no "hey, the server was down"). Thanks for your continued support.
Friday 1/15 (14:14):
Arena Page changed so you don't have to scroll as much.
Thursday 1/14 (20:51):
Due to some serious Big Board Problems, multiple players can no longer play the Board from the same IP.
Thursday 1/14 (11:49):
Tiny Bee Update! First, you can no longer use S Rank parts in the FKF. The reason?
You can now have more than one Tiny Bee Weapon!
Similar to the Sponsor Items, you can 'drop them at the bank', then go hunting for another one. Now, if you are in the RF for a 2.0, and you've banked a 2.0, it still won't let you, but if you, say, have a Rifle, and want to try for a 2.0, you can put away the Rifle while you go 2.0 hunting. :)
Thursday 1/14 (7:54):

Friday 1/8 (18:21):
New Science Machine to help with Worldkai. You don't get to see what it does yet, though, so if you want to level it before you know, more power to you.
Friday 1/8 (10:14):
Flux Capacitor Bug Fixed The lightning in The Fields is supposed to set a flag on your Flux Capacitor to allow it to gather charge for an upcoming Jutsu (not yet in game). Until right now, it has not been properly setting that flag. So, if you've been hit before, go do it again. -_-
Friday 1/8 (0:53):
