✩★✩ FAQ ✩★✩
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇◣
★ Can I have one for free?
Naaaay! No pretties unless you can pony up the cash.
☆ Are these delivered 'grams?
Nope - you're responsible for PM'ing any gifted ponies/capsules on your own.
★ I was hoping for a different capsule...
Nothing stopping you from having another go at the Gachapon machine, or seeing if anyone would like a swap.
☆ Can we get doubles?
Yup, there's always that possibility. If you've got extras, gift 'em to friends or stop by the main thread to ask around for trades.
★ How many different ponies are there?
Fifty in the 2010 edition, evenly split amongst five different linearts - PookaPony, PumpkinPony, WitchyPony, DemonPony, and CandyPony.
☆ Are you going to do this again next year?
I just might, if all goes well!
★ I've seen Ponies with Gold stars and #SE instead of the regular ones, how do I get those?
SE stands for Special Edition, and each is a unique pony I made only for a specific person. They are not available for sale, sorry!
☆ Can we buy ponies for ourselves?
Of course ~ self-bought ponies won't have "To/From" but "Belongs To" instead on their tag.
★ Can ponies be renamed?
No. The names they come with are their "official" names, you can, of course, call them something else yourself but the official names will be what's on the tags.
☆ Maximum five ponies .. does that mean I can only have five ever? 8C
No, only five ponies per person
each day, the gachapon machine likes to spread it's capsules out! Day resets at 9AM EST - one order per 24 hours. Abuse of mule accounts to circumvent limits will result in a shop ban. I know it's hard to resist buying every pony in sight, but a daily limit means that everyone has a chance to get some.
★ Are certain ponies rarer than others?
Other than Special Editions, no - all ponies are equally represented in the rolling list. The order the capsules are handed out is predetermined with random.org - I'll post up the snapshots after each batch is used up. Numbers are generated "bingo style" - that is, each pony appears once exactly in each batch of fifty. No order will contain doubles, though it's possible to get the same capsule on different days.
☆ When can I open my capsule?
Post in the
Pop My Capsule thread - on October 31st any previously unopened capsules will open on Halloween night!
☆ Why do you need to know who's getting my capsules on the order form?
The main reason is that in case you pay for your order but then never tell me who each of your capsule(s) belong to - I'll use the information in your order form to make a "best guess" on the 31st for who the resulting ponies belong to. Orphan ponies would be terribly sad! :'C
★ How come you spell colour and honour and other words with an extra 'u'?
I'm Canadian. =3 We use the British spelling of many words.
☆ What's Days Remaining?
That'd be number of days left that capsules will be available! Shop's closing on the 29th so I have time to cert every pony for a Halloween release.
