i've noticed some ppl tend to keep the auto generated names with the random letters and i was wondering if anyone actually names their creatures? i don't like keeping the auto generated names so i tend to rename them whatever thing i can come up with, tho im guessing that habit will die down once i end up getting a ton more LOL

PRIORITY: URGENT
PURPOSE: ANNOUNCEMENT

Attention all scientists!

A new capsule is now available in the cupboard thanks to the hard work of Coral M. Mui, who has been studying these curious creatures for the past few months to fully understand their genetics. Please submit any new data regarding them to either her or Soza Starrs, who is helping her with the data compilation.

These will flood for 48 hours before joining the normal rotation.

For more details, see my Market Tread.
DM me if you have any questions / concerns / offers.

12/29/2023: So I learned that the TODAY() function will update all the cells to todays date and not when it was filled - oops. I've removed this from the sheet so you'll need to add the dates manually sorry!
ex: December 29, 2023 would be 29/12/2023

Back with another Google Spreadsheet, this time to help keep track of Winter Solstice gift-giving!

How To Use

Due to the nature of Google Sheets using the user's default timezone, the dates & cooldowns on the counters might be slightly off. Just use it as a general guideline lol.

There's four tabs:
- The first "HOW TO" explains how to use the sheet
- The second "Main" shows an overview of your sent & received gifts - this is updated automatically.
- The third "Received" is for documenting all the gifts you've received
- The fourth "Sent" is for documenting all the gifts you've sent out

Hope this helps! If you have any questions, feel free to message here :)


Enjoy the festivities and happy holidays!

What's this?

We're doing things a little different this year! Although the Solstice event is usually locked behind a Solstice quest, this time around we're opening it earlier--giving you all more time to enjoy the games and send gifts!

Gather gifts, sort them, and send them off to friends and even random strangers during this beloved event, which can be found here: https://finaloutpost.net/holiday23/.

And as another wonderful year of TFO draws to a close, the entire TFO team would like to take a moment to thank YOU for being a part of our journey! That truly is the greatest gift of all. Here's to many more years to come!  The whole event schedule can be found here.

Be aware that bugs should be expected... working on the old code base is a serious pain.  Please report them in the bugs sub-forum and we will fix them as soon as possible.

I'd love to see some people's Lab Description. I finally feel like I've got enough of a sense of what I'm doing in the game to write mine up, and I realized I've only seen a few of them 'out in the wild' so to speak, so I'd love to see yours here? I'll start! 

As you enter the lab, you see the contained chaos that spills over every space. On second glance you also notice tea pots strategically placed throughout, so that one is never out of arms reach, and the racks around the wall that seem to be filled with packets of tea. A few Scurios also dot the tables, and seem to have claimed their own tea cups. On the wall, you notice a white board: 

Exactly as the title says. DM me here or on discord for a faster response.
