    We will not restrict exchange of goods but we will not officially endorse these exchanges due to liability issues and staffing bandwidth.

Catnip Games reserves the right to restrict any activities if they cause widespread issues for our community or if these activities involve exploits of any kind.

Make EVERY Sunday a day to visit Novia Market (in ALL time zones)!

    To the realm of New Britannia:

    Bamboozle and I have been working hard at crafting a unique and improved buying experience for Novia. The idea is to be more buyer-centric and buyer friendly than previous efforts in Owl's Head, Brittany Alleys, and craft a new POT around this experience called Novia Market (or "NoMa" for short).

    A key idea for us is the idea of regular 'doorcrashers' each and every Sunday, modeled after the weekly flyer in your local supermarkets. Part of NoMa has been expressly dedicated and built to this Weekly Promo, called "Promo Alley", conveniently placed right in front of the entrance.

    We have gathered a team to manage each category with fair priced and high quality goods in their respective specialities, but on top of that... each and every Sunday, there's a special vendor at the end who will have very limited-quantity crazy-type promos.

    We are dedicated to all buyers, no matter how long they have been in New Britannia - beginner or expert - and no matter what Outlander time zone they are in. We have three "editions" to cover all time zones around Sunday 1pm in your local timezone!
    • Our Asia Edition starts limited quantity, randomly timed promos on
      Sundays 1pm Sydney Time/noon Tokyo Time/11am Beijing time
      [Saturdays 10pm NBT] for around three hours to cover the GMT+8 thru GMT+10 time zones;

    • Our Europe Edition starts limited quantity, randomly timed promos on
      Sundays 1pm Moscow Time/noon Berlin Time/11am London time
      [Sundays 6am NBT] for around three hours to cover the GMT thru GMT+2 time zones; and

    • Our Americas Edition starts limited quantity, randomly timed promos on
      Sundays 1pm EST
      [Sundays noon NBT] for around three hours to cover the EST thru PST time zones.
    What does this mean? At around 1pm on Sundays in your local time zone, we will be offering crazy deals! Our Promo Alleys team change things up, but here are some examples of our past Promos:
    • Silver ore at 39gp/ea
    • Death Bunny Heads at 7,999gp/ea
    • +7 Pine Long Bow at 2,499gp/ea
    • Recall scrolls at 75gp/ea
    • +8 Fustian Epic Cloth Chest at 8,999gp/ea
    • Pine wood at 39gp/ea
    • Mandrake at 2.5gp/ea
    • Troll spare ribs at 199gp/ea
    • Carved wooden furniture at 999gp/ea
    • Gold ore at 39gp/ea
    • Dye 12-pack rewards at 14,999gp/ea
    • Demon Tea at 199gp/ea
    • Maple wood at 39gp/ea
    • Teleport scrolls at 75gp/ea
    • Bagged Prosperity Tools at 38,999gp/ea
    We try to have something for everyone, especially novice Avatars new to New Britannia! And even if you miss snapping up a promo, explore the rest of the whole town! There are excellent vendors located in every part of NoMa!

    There will all kinds of great promos every Saturday.. so definitely come check them out!

    All the vendors there have the highest quality items at the lowest prices in New Britannia.. so if you're a new player or just thrifty on gold (and who isn't?), Novia Market, or NoMa, is the place to shop!

    Thanks, Berek, it was great for Bamboozle to meet you last weekend and saw you write up your visit in the POT Spotlight!! :)

    Thanks to everyone for all the great notes of support and questions from the POT Spotlight!

    We're getting close to this week's Promo Sunday, so remember - it's at 1pm on Sunday in your local timezone, wherever you live***. Easy to remember!

    See you there!

    Ben

    *** Ok, if you live in the 10 time zones most populated in the game:

    PST thru EST (aka GMT-8 thru GMT-5),
    GMT+0 thru GMT+2, and
    GMT+8 thru GMT+10.

    If you live outside that... please let us know where you live!! :)
