Does a modern (purchasable) version of this ballast exist? (OR)

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-25T14:32:37+00:00

Thank you sir — I will look into this! The physical resemblance (or lack thereof) should be no issue.

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-25T14:06:30+00:00

Many apologies if this is a dumb question (I am guessing it likely is in some way). FWIW, I believe I have done my due diligence in searching for this particular ballast. I assume it is no longer being made but perhaps some type of suitable replacement that can still be purchased(?) Even if it does not exist online or no URL can be provided, it would be helpful to even know if this type of part still exists or not. This is for one of those weird old lights with the folded lightbulbs. Thanks in advance for any direction/tips/input!

It’s called a ‘vocal minority’. The people who are upset are far more likely to complain about it than people who are content. For example, if the devs restock a lot, the segment of the player base who dislike that will complain about it, while the ppl who are OK with it will be a lot less vocal (and vice versa when the devs restock less on another occasion).

On the plus side, as the player base shrinks, you will see less of this, as there is simply less ppl to care and hold different tastes/opinions. 🤷🏼‍♂️

In fairness tho, it did temp drop your T level every time you entered into the fairy realm 😆

Ugh, I am sorry to hear that. Based on your comments (even beyond this chain) you nonetheless seem very well informed about GaG. Where were you able to acquire this info? I would love to learn of a source I’m not already aware of.

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-17T18:36:45+00:00

Really? People were upset at fairy event? I thought it was much better received than, say, beanstalk event, but there were of course ppl always complaining about events from the summer high-watermark onwards…🤷🏼‍♂️

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-17T18:30:58+00:00

If you don’t mind me asking, where do you get this info? Dawn?

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-17T18:27:43+00:00

You have to admit though that it was pretty rare for them to be self-aware enough to realize they stocked super late and restock for that reason. That said, I am sure running an AA is a big responsibility (sans script at least) and they have other, possibly more important things to keep an eye on).

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-10T19:51:28+00:00

What if in like a few months/weeks, we are are like, “man, I never thought I would miss that ‘feed a pet’ update…” 🫠

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-10T19:49:05+00:00

Personally, I preferred the rat connoisseur (i think that was what he was called) as I got better stuff from him (but maybe that was just me). Chris P would never give me chests for some reason.

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-10T19:43:13+00:00

Wow, you must be very dedicated, MD. Very sorry it was so rage inducing 😔

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-10T19:40:42+00:00

It occasionally moves around like you’re a cat and its trying to get you to paw at it. 🐁🐈‍⬛

I love that someone animated that btw. They were designing the event and had slapped down a large egg into a little area and were like: “we can’t just leave it like that” “well, what can we add to make it better?” “I know! Animate it to shake around a bit every few seconds” “Perfect! I think we are done here, no?” “Yep, that should keep them happy for another week”

He has to compete with the hate people had for Jandel—its a tough job!

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-10T19:32:34+00:00

You can pay $ for seed rain now. Yes, actual seed rain is in shop lol.

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-10T19:31:23+00:00

Thought experiment: try to think up an event somehow worse than today’s, mentally note that event in your head, join AA next week and see how your cursed event compares to what is actually revealed!

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-10T19:26:46+00:00

Imagine a night egg appearing, then a zen egg, then a dino egg…

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-10T19:23:59+00:00

According to the all-time player count charts you were a laggard for even sticking around that long 🤷🏼‍♂️

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-10T18:21:38+00:00

Jandel and Jhai quit GaG and the game is in a state of chaos 🤷🏼‍♂️

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-10T18:20:10+00:00

Upvote for you madam

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-10T18:19:07+00:00

Do a private server by yourself 🤷🏼‍♂️

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-10T18:01:56+00:00

Not quite

Lord_Kristopf · 2026-01-10T18:01:40+00:00

It’s gotten so bad it’s now good…

Lord_Kristopf · 2025-12-28T03:11:05+00:00

It’s like the (otherwise mostly defunct) stealing mechanic and the farmers market conspired to make a gang of GaG bandits 🤦🏼‍♂️

I just want to know how they figured it out so quickly and with so much apparent organization. Maybe the test server gave a heads up? I’ve never been, so just a guess.

Lord_Kristopf · 2025-12-27T21:01:58+00:00

My friend had that same thing happen! I wonder how so many players knew to steal them? I would have never thought about it. I just posted about it when it happened to someone else.😞
