*Blinks eyes* WAIT.. WHAT!? It’s already March???
First off, let’s welcome everyone to OPEN BETA!
We’re so excited as staff and a community to welcome new members as we reopen registration today, March 1st, 2018.
As we transition from Alpha 2.0 into Beta 2.0 we plan on updating and introducing new features!
During Alpha we introduced our Prototype Daily Chance - with Beta we plan to introduce new items for Daily Chance, but also.. *drumroll* our Prototype RIG!
Per usual, you’ll be seeing new commons hit the shops too.
Cheers!

March Crates have arrived!
If Open Beta wasn’t sweet enough, how about these new crate sets!? This month, Frizz and Static, have gifted us with the Valorous Knight (by Neb!) and Victorious Captain (by Bean!), as well as, the rare Floral Empress set (by Qt!).
Head on over to OMG Imports now!
March Crates can be purchased from Ohm-my-gosh imports for 250 Ohms each until 3/31.
(If you don’t have your ohms yet, head on over to the donation page!)
*Just a reminder that you can wear 2 poses from a single set!*
Head on over to A Guide to Voltra Crates for more on crates. ^^

Pixel Updates
This week we have a new hairstyle and updates to a few items based on your feedback.
Vyc has stocked some previous items with default tone additions!
Bunny Ears - 350 Volts
Cat Ears - 350 Volts
Cat Tail - 250 Volts
Deer Eyes - 200 Volts
(Thanks I.T.s for uploading these additional re-colors!)
Vivienne now offers one of the cutest hairstyles you've probably ever seen, Dolly Hair!
Here in the city of Voltra, the shop keepers have new additions periodically throughout the week. We summarize the new additions in each Surge, but most of the time these items have already been made available. You can find out daily if any new commons have arrived by viewing the "What's Happening?" section in the footer.
(This has already been a feature since Voltra opened, but we thought we'd bring it to everyone's attention just in case!

The next Milestone Items will be released @:
-250k posts
-1k Volties
-100 Volties Online
You all got this!
