Greetings Fanlings!
The residents of the Goatlings Kingdom would like to share with you a very special end of the year tradition!
All year long Goatlings save their biggest and prettiest Sugar Stars and turn them into charms. On the last day of the year (December 31st) Goatlings gather together and stay up late in order to greet the New Year at midnight! In the hours before midnight, the Sugar Star Charms are given to others to express an important message.
The color of each charm represents something different.
Pink - I care about you, you're my good friend!
Blue - You're appreciated, I'm glad you're here!
Yellow - Good luck and prosperity in the New Year!
Purple - I love you!
Orange - I'm sorry.
Green - I forgive you.
White - Thank you!
So, if you've have something meaningful to say to someone but haven't had a good chance yet, or it's to hard to say out loud, the Sugar Star Festival is the perfect time to let it out!
Today is the day to pass out your charms and stay up late to greet the new year! Send a Sugar Star Charm to another member by clicking the charm in your inventory, choose 'Give To Friend' from the drop down menu and click 'Use', then enter the member's name and click 'Send Item'.
At the strike of midnight, everyone yells "HAPPY NEW YEAR!" to wish everyone a good new year! The Goat Princess will then gift a special Year Badge to commemorate, and thank everyone for joining us during the past year.
