We held an unscheduled Cash Shop maintenance on Thursday, September 24, 2009, during which we corrected the issue of Cash Shop Surprise dispensing Ludibrium Hair Coupon (REG). As Ludibrium Hair Coupon (REG) is not redeemable at this time, it should not have been one of the items that can be acquired through Cash Shop Surprise.
We apologize for the error. Those of you who have already drawn a Ludibrium Hair Coupon (REG) will be compensated during the September 30th server maintenance with a Ludibrium Hair Coupon (EXP). If you have more than one Ludibrium Hair Coupon (REG), compensation will be made for all of them.
Again, we apologize for the error as well as the confusion this may have caused.

We received numerous reports about the Cash Shop Surprise alerts flooding your chatbox, and therefore have adjusted the alert system during the Thursday, September 24, 2009 Cash Shop maintenance. The only red Cash Shop Surprise alert you will receive in your chatbox is when someone wins a pet. You can now resume your use of the chatbox without the multiple red alert interruptions.
Limited time only. If you don't get one, it will come to cash shop soon enough <3
Slaying monsters in the Monster Carnival is no walk in the park, and as
such, more EXP should be garnered for besting them. So, from September
23rd to October 20th you will earn more EXP than you used to in the
Monster Carnival 2 PQ. By how much, you ask?
During this increased EXP event:
When you win Monster Carnival 2, you get an additional 30,000 EXP.
When you lose Monster Carnival 2, you get an additional 10,000 EXP.
Did we mention that there's also an event medal?
When you play Monster Carnival 100 times during the event, you will be
awarded with Fervent Carnivalian Medal that boasts awesome stats of:
Speed +5, HP +5, and MP +5, which will be good for the duration of the
event.
With each Cash Shop Surprise you open, you get a random CS item. It seems there are two different outcomes - "Jackpot" and "Normal" - when you open the cash shop surprise.
