F.A.Q
How do I earn event currency?
If you look to your upper left hand side of the screen, you will see your typical
Volts and Ohms but additionally also a striped ticket. That ticket is
the event currency! As the event runs, you can earn tickets through posting as follows:
10-11 Tickets in the event forum per post
1-2 Tickets for the game forum per post
and 2-3 Tickets in all other forums per post

Where do I get my fortune read?
Io the blind oracle offers short, fortune cookie type premonitions for a small ticket price
that can be navigated to via the sign on the homepage, or you can click Io's tent on the Landing Page
If you were hoping for a more thorough fortune, you can get in line to read your daily astrology,
palm reading and by far more by clicking: Io, the Blind Oracle

What if I miss a day and didn't get the item grant?
Fear not, a young man whose um...customer service doesn't quite meet our standards,
but none the less he is effective- works at this wonderful shop called the Joyful Jamboree
He's a bit away from the tent but all items granted can be purchased there via tickets!

What are these 'dark poses' in the event items?
Something very dark is effecting the troupe, and it appears to be reflecting in their items as well!
When you brave souls face off against the troupe members, you will unlock their bonus 'dark poses', found in the items you already own!
Of course, you can also buy more at the Joyful Jamboree.

Hmm, I noticed some things not working quite right/looks glitchy with all the new event stuff.
Your eyes are much appreciated! If you have any concerns from that variety, we hear Voltra has a developer named
Hazer who likely could assist you! He has a thread dedicated entirely to that sort of thing and can be found
by clicking here:

Why does the site look different, and can I change it back?
The sites theme has been changed for all users when this event released and hit a check mark.
These themes overtake all users themes to show them the event is running/changing.
However, we do not want to force users to use our themes if they do not want too, so you can change them back here.

I have another question or concern that wasn't answered here..
Thankfully Voltra is riddled with staff members that would be willing to assist you!
Just scroll down to the bottom of the page on the forums tab to see who is online,
pick whichever colorful name meets your fancy and either @PING: them in the forums or
shoot them a private message. Voltra also has a discord server which may provide
a faster response. If you haven't joined that yet, clicketh here]:

Wait, wait! Where is the tent anyway?
Ah you wouldn't want to be tardy! You can teleport over to the tent and
Ringmaster Lin by clicking here: Cirque ad Infinitum. Hurry or else you will miss the show!!

The crisp leaves of fall swirl an elegant dance in the wind before settling down to the pavement,
making their last rustles until the next gust sweeps them away all over again. You excitedly reach out for one
of the fire hued leaves, stashing it in your bag to reflect on later...or maybe you'll forget about it entirely.
As you continue your journey to whichever residence in Voltra you set out to, along the way you notice a fine but peculiarly dressed man
gazing at a brochure stapled to an electric post as he strokes his beard.

"Ah, it would seem my guess was indeed correct! Thank goodness I got a head start and made it
to Voltra before they did. This time I CAN'T miss the show!

Joining you in your curiosity, two young boys rush up in a hurry.
Their faces sticky with sugar residue but smiles nonetheless charming.
"Hey mister, is tha' the flyer for da circus?!"
"Oh garsh, I hope I HOPE it is!"

Unaware he had company, the man quickly turns around mildly startled but then beams a
friendly and disarming smile towards you and the boys.
"Why yes, yes indeed it is! I've already had my look over it so I'll be going now!
Perhaps I'll see you all there? Farewell to thee, look both ways before crossing the street.
Revealing his bald head, he respectfully tipped his hat to you with a short bow and walked away
whistling a peppy ditty.

"Um...um...excuse us but ah...
You crouch to meet both boys eye level warmly. "Yes, what is it?"
"We ain't tall enough ta read da sign!
"Sowwy. Please get it fo' us?
"Sure!" You reach up and pull the brochure off the post, trying not to tear the paper too much.
The boys snagged it and began flipping through it with excitement, and then..frustration
as they squint their eyes and scratched their tousled heads.
"Um...well...we can't read. Do ya think tha' you could read it to us?" -
Their sweetness enamors you and you lead them to sit on the edge
of the sidewalk to sit side by side with you.
"Certainly. I am curious myself so let's read over this together!"
You start from the cover. "I can't wait ta see the pwetty ladies!"
