the first late update!

Members: There are currently no new members.
Games: Local Shows, Studio Program
Let me first apologize for this update being posted a day late! I explained why on the Discord a little bit but to get into a little more detail, I've been in a mood lately (and lowkey stressed with how many errors have been popping up since opening; even though I expected it to an extent, I guess I was not truly prepared lol), among other things, and didn't want to take it out on anyone so I've been less present while trying to take a quick break and focusing on some other interests as a refresher!

My sleep schedule has also been terrible and I think it's throwing my body and brain off so I've been struggling wanting to sit down and work on anything, so I also apologize for the delay in replying to things, both on the forums and in my DMs. I believe I'll be getting to some things after this, and I'll reply to my DMs regarding TCG stuff soon so please give me a little bit more time! I'm not ignoring anyone, I am just trying to sort things out ;;

I bring all this up because knowing myself, this is probably not going to be the last time something like this happens, but also as a reminder: I get overwhelmed easily which usually makes me become avoidant of whatever is causing that feeling but I will get to things eventually! Thankfully, no one's been rushing me to do anything but I just wanted to put this out there as a reminder, and also to say I appreciate everyone's understanding! Additionally, please know I *do* see your messages and will respond to them when I can, and sometimes that means waiting until I'm in the right mindset to even if I'm online but doing other stuff.

Anyways! Enough about that, let's get this update done!

TCG NEWS

I think I'll be sending out Prejoin Rewards, including SPARKLING! Lotto prizes, later this week (hopefully, anyways lmao) so if you'd like to be included in this batch of SPARKLING! Lotto rewards and haven't posted your form yet, make sure you do so ASAP - although it will remain open for prize claims until the end of March, with the possibility of an extension if needed. Special Challenge rewards from January's round will also be sent out this week!

You'll also notice 30 decks being released this week; I think this is going to be the norm for a bit since we have so many decks on upcoming right now thanks to our hard working makers so hopefully I can get more decks out that you'll guys need for games and activities! However, please understand that with the limited amount of series we accept donations for that there's inevitably going to be more representation of some series than others.

Especially since half the release is decided entirely by votes and the rest I try to include what I notice/remember players needing for things (e.g. DreamFes units, fan club entries, any events going on) while also trying to have as much variety across series/characters as possible, it's super difficult to have a relatively good balance but I'm trying!! Not to mention, if we have a lot of donations from a handful of certain series then of course there's going to be more decks of that series to be released - so do keep in mind that I truly try to keep my bias out of deciding releases but sometimes it's just not possible to and that's why we'll sometimes have multiple decks released of the same characters in a short period :')

EVENT UPDATES

I am still working on the list of accepted decks that you can get bonus rewards from in the White Valentine Month mini event so please wait a bit more for it! I was trying to avoid making one because it'd be more work for me to do but I see there's been a lot of worry and confusion over what counts or not so I will get that ready as soon as I can. I might make a couple of adjustments to this part of the event, hopefully for the better, but I'll announce it on Saturday if I go through with it! If I do, this won't affect anything already turned in/planned so please don't worry; it would just be an addition to what may be accepted.

As for donations, it'll be more difficult to have a clear cut list of what would be accepted or not so my only advice is to look at an image and ask yourself: "If I had no context about this image's source/origins and only looked at what it is showing me, would I think of Valentine's or White Day?" Just because a card was part of a Valentine's/White Day set, doesn't mean it *looks* like it even if everyone who plays the game knows that.

Images with stuff like lots of hearts or someone giving a gift doesn't necessarily always mean it's Valentine's related either so if you're planning on donating themed images to get bonus rewards, please do so with the understanding that they may not end up counting after all but you will use up your monthly donation slots regardless! I'm sorry there's not an easier way of figuring things out otherwise without taking this chance so please bear with it just for this event if you really do want the bonus rewards - I'll likely only do something like this again if the theme is more obvious/clear!

GAME UPDATES

We were able to finish up Collab Stage from last month (Sparkling Debut) fairly quickly so a new round for this month (Valentine's) has already started, however there's already only SEVEN (7) spots left! The following series are also currently maxed out so no more images can be donated from it for now: THE IDOLM@STER CINDERELLA GIRLS and Uta no☆Prince-sama♪ whereas some series are nearing maxed donations so if you haven't submitted an image yet and want to, get yours in there ASAP~ Please also double check your image link is working as I've noticed some show up as being deleted/not loading when I've checked periodically!

The results for Your Idol's last round are available over here and a new round has been posted! Dhee will likely post in the Discord once rewards have been sent out later, so look out for that once she's able to!

There was an error with the Upcoming Vote form not counting the last two decks submitted in the form so I apologize that vote counts for whatever decks everyone has been selecting in the #4 and #5 spots have not been correctly updated since opening! This should be fixed now but let me know if you notice otherwise.

Lastly, Artist Profiling has had the choice card removed from it's reward again because it was still not working properly so I'm sorry to do that once more! If I ever get it resolved, it will be added back in at the beginning of a new month (whenever that month may be) so make sure to go ahead and play it before the end of the month if you noticed that and were waiting for it to be added back.

COMING SOON

Sorry for more walls of text to read but it will happen again so thank you to everyone who actually reads my yapping! The next update will be on February 14th if everything goes to plan so see you then :3

I have been FREEZING this past week that it's been so hard to do anything on my computer because my hands and fingers get cold so quickly and stay that way for so long lol That won't stop me being online but I am Suffering™ Hopefully the weather will get better soon and not be as cold where I am!!!!

SITE MILESTONES

There's only two today, one for the new month and the other to celebrate us finally hitting 100+ decks released!


ev-202602, ev-100decks

For the February 2026 milestone, anyone can take it as long as you were/are a member during this month so it doesn't matter when you joined - just make sure to grab it before the 28th or you will miss out on it! For the 100 Decks Released milestone, anyone can take it as long as you joined ON -OR- BEFORE TODAY but there's no deadline to claim it by.

GAME UPDATES

Following last week's update, this week these games listed should be updated to include choice cards as potential rewards again: Crazy Roulette, Artist Profiling, and Photobook Shoot. As always, please report it on the forums if they are not working!

Registration for February's Sparkling Tour is also open now, and I'll post a new Special Challenge round later once I decide what to do for it this month (along with sending out rewards for January). As prepared as I tried to be, there were some things I forgot to think about and have ready on time tehe..... Group Collect is also back on the site so don't miss out on participating in that!

Last month's Collab Stage (Sparkling Debut) was not completed in time as there are SEVEN (7) spots left so I am now opening it up to second donations for anyone who already submitted an image in January! Do remember that the series limits are in still in place so BanG Dream! is currently maxed out on donations, whereas Ensemble Stars! and Project Sekai are both almost maxed out with 2 out of 3 images donated each. Once that fills up, I'll open up a new round for February!

I've started doing themed rounds for Card Medley and providing hints for each card or just the general theme overall so you guys can have a starting point for searching, and will try to choose cards (from the randomized pile I pull from) that have something in it to make it more obvious what deck it might be from if you take time to look through decks to play it!

TCG NEWS

First, I want to announce our first Seasonal Mini Event: White Valentine Month!

This will be taking place from today, February 1st until March 13th so we'll be trying to make and release as many related decks as possible to give more options to use in the event~ Please be sure to keep track of any event currency earned on your trade post somewhere and include how you earned it in your logs if it's not already included when you receive any!

After last week's update, I wasn't able to update the Sparkle Shoppe prices until the 29th but that has been completed now so if you purchased any items that are now cheaper, please report it on the forums for price adjusting so I can refund the necessary amount of currency!

Since it's a new month, donation limits have been reset so go ahead and claim/donate now! If you want some extra rewards though, I recommend checking the White Valentine Month mini event above first before claiming anything~ February birthdays can start picking up their gift now as well, just remember to do so before the end of the month! Lastly, Wish Upon a Star is back to normal so only ONE (1) wish is allowed this month.

PREJOIN REWARDS

Now that we've hit 100 decks, it's time to finally send out rewards from pre-prejoin and prejoin! As a reminder, I will be sending out rewards based on the amounts shown in the Prejoin Rewards Tracker so if you receive something that does not match with what it says there, let me know. I'm going to start sending these out *AFTER* this update but most likely sometime later this week (or even as early as later tonight/tomorrow) and not right away, so once I've started (and finished) then I will edit this update and post in the Discord - please do not contact me about not receiving anything until then as it's most likely I haven't gotten to it yet!

The results for SPARKLING! Lotto have also been announced as well so check out the winning numbers on the forums and fill out the form there to claim your prize. Even if you didn't get any matching numbers, you'll still receive a consolation prize so don't forget to claim your reward whatever it may be! The tentative deadline to claim prizes will be March 31st but if every participant collects it before that then I will lock it early.

COLLAB STAGE DECK RELEASE

In addition to the regular deck release (which has even been increased to 30 decks), our first Collab Stage deck, themed-prejoin, is also being released today!


Members who submitted an image can take the card that it was used in as their Donator Pull for free, and it will not count towards regular pulls. if you donated 2 images to the deck, you can only take ONE (1) card as your donator pull so choose which card you want between the two your images were used in for your Donator Pull!

The claiming form will not have a field for you to add the Donator Pull officially so just edit your comment after it's posted with what you took and log it with your other pulls! This deck should be included in the dropdown list if you want to take additional cards from it however, but they WILL count towards your regular pulls and must still follow the stated pull restrictions/limits in this case.

Wishing Stars

Kindly take a total max of 2 cards per deck if there are no restrictions indicated.
