Hey there, looks like you just wandered in. Why not have a look around and stay for a while, maybe even start your own adventure, if you're into that.

A Final Bewitchery...

In the thicket of battle, the stranger's red energy begins to swirl with a life of its own. It's being harnessed by forces unknown, hiding amongst the legions of world-hoppers defending their respective witches.

Dopplegangers? Wizards? A mystery until their sudden disappearance, along with their influence. The Witches War rages on.

Recently, we discovered a few instances of rule breaking which skewed the points in the Witches War. This was too significant to ignore, so after extensive investigation and some deliberation, we've decided to do the following.

44,283 points will be removed from Team Glume on December 10th, 4AM DVT

The Witches War event has been extended to:
Sunday December 11th, 8PM DVT
This will give all teams a final fighting chance at victory.

  • After rollover tonight, the bonus point gain will be reduced to just 1%, effectively giving the teams a relatively even battlefield for the final showdown.
  • We're hoping that these updates make the best of a difficult and unique situation, and we'll also be looking into ways to safeguard against this for other events of this type in the future.

  • A 15 minute maintenance will occur on December 12th 12AM DVT - 4 hours after the team battle ends - to conclude the storyline.
  • The Stranger's Wares shop stock will be moved to a new place, with the seasonal summer clothing continuing to be available for purchase there until December 16th.
  • Complete the "Traversing the Warring Forest" quest for 14 days in total in order to unlock more content after maintenance!

We'd like to ask that in the future, if anyone sees possible examples of rule breaking, to please report it through the ticket desk only and refrain from discussing it publicly on site or in our Discord Server. This kind of action can unintentionally lead to witch hunts and harassment, which are against our Rules of Conduct and harmful overall to the community. Rule breaking should not be grounds to be harassed by other users, allow us to be the mediator. Thank you very much!

Thank you for playing and supporting Dappervolk, we'll be back with event conclusions. May the strongest witch win!

    JaneBuzJane (#24420) exactly! 2 weeks of a silent staff, to a sudden drop to 3rd place. It's really baffling how only one team discovered this way to exploit the rules, not even 1 point from the other teams came from that bug/glitch/whatever. And did it happen over the 2 weeks, during the last 2 days? How many people knew this exploit? Because if that didn't leak it implies it was known by very few people and to gather 48k points it happened over the entire event.

    That being said, at least the rewards are the same for everybody besides some potatoes so it isn't that big of a deal, it's just sketchy from the staff imo.

    Thanks for not punishing the users involved and instead all of us who played fair.

    Hey just to offer anyone still reading here a little bit of insight. The reason these individuals were cheating was probably to farm dual rewards. I saw someone did the math on discord a while ago, some of the accounts would have earned upwards of 3 mil or more potatoes from how much they had already earned, and that was only one of multiple accounts that were like that.

    It's awfully scummy of a thing to do and sucks that it's turned out the way it has. It's true that none of the legitimate points or efforts of team glume's members went to waste (only the fraudulent points are being removed if I understand right) but they DID get robbed of multiple opportunities for the 30% bonus that they would have likely had, if their score wasn't artificially inflated like it was. I think the event extension is meant to give a couple more opportunities at that bonus if team glume was meant to have it.

    I hope everyone ends up having their fair shot after all this!

    Thanks for the fix. <3

    Sorry to Team Glume for the problems this caused. <3

    Cheating is super lame and uncool.

    oh my, thanks for the update!
  • Villager Kokichi (#2460) 10 Dec 2022, 1:22 am
    Thank you for fixing this. I'd like to try to win this fairly and not from cheating. Shame on everyone who was cheating.
  • Villager Butcherbaby (#27689) 10 Dec 2022, 1:20 am
    Wow. I kept wondering how Team Glume had such a huge lead over the others, but it never even occurred to me that cheating might be involved. I feel bad for the honest Team Glume members affected by this.

    Tealwing (#21495) Dead set on deciding how the story ends? XD
  • Villager Tealwing (#21495) 10 Dec 2022, 12:26 am
    This is wild lol
    Like why tho?
    To even think of cheating on a rather niche site. The prize difference is 10k in easily gained currency. That's like 5 daily quests in LH/3's forest!
  • Villager Roxy_Lalonde (#34545) 10 Dec 2022, 12:24 am
    Woah, ty to everyone who explained it here it was due to the botting :o I guess it wasn't for the sake of "do it for 10kp" but rather for "the winning team will decide how the story ends" x-x I'm glad that duel-partnering and selling wins/loses is not cheating - got freaked out about the news for a moment X'D

    Follow up to my original comment, NVM, I see now why people are upset since the points aren't going to be deducted yet but in a few hours. I still don't believe that the attitude is correct, but I can at least understand why it's seriously demoralizing to realize that the lead you thought you legitimately had was in fact the result of someone cheating. There's still time though, so maybe you guys can still turn it around.
  • Villager Gil (#11280) 10 Dec 2022, 12:17 am
    I truly don't understand why people keep saying that Team Glume's efforts are now weighted less importantly / all the work over the last two weeks has been for nothing. All of the points that were not garnered through illegal bots remain. LITERALLY all of the work that you put in is there. Also, unless what I am seeing on my screen right now is incorrect, Glume is still FAR in the lead--by 26,813 points at the time of my posting this. No one is saying that all of Glume's team are cheaters and you've not been disqualified, so I just don't understand where this attitude is coming from.

    Team barclay you guys better pick it up for me :') wish i could of been on that team

    To our dearest devs, when the shop is moving, is there more clarification regarding the currency and how it'll be affected. Is the currency permanent like the Officiator Tokens, or will the shop be moved and will items be purchasable by Potatoes?
