Yes you heard me right: Subeta Characters also known as NPC’s (Non-Player Characters), have their very own unique pets. Some I had never read about nor heard their name before. Some others like Jaxon Skelly who already have a number of pets have seen them grow from small minions to life size pets.

Check ‘em out! Take a look at some of the Subetan Characters’ Pets*!

And yes I did say Subetan NOT Subetian!
Subeta is divided as to which spelling and pronounciation is the most grammaticaly correct.
See, my theory is that if no one had ever heard of Neopets and Neop-i-ans, it would have never crossed their mind to add some random i in the middle.

Neopia –> Neopians. All is good; sounds good too.
Subeta –> Subetans. Why on earth add an extra letter?! I see no “i” before the “a” in the name Subeta, do you?

We’ve actually debated this in my family. See how I’m the only one who plays but they all know everything about it?
So we tried to think of examples using country names and their habitants. Problem was that although there were countries who followed the rule above, there were some that didn’t. Exceptions to the rule or was there never a rule in the first place?

Now if you’re brave enough to go up and ask your English teacher about this, oh my gosh I’ll have to think of a prize I could give you.
Pixel, avatar, sP (Subeta Points), free hugs every day of the week for a whole week.. Now I’m making no promises here but I’ll think about it ‘k? Oh and the condition for a possible prize is that your teacher tells you the proper pronounciation is Subetan.

Right well that was a whole lot to read for nothing wasn’t it! Boring. Just go look at those pets will ya? Ty.

Oh and before I forget, meet the new shopkeepers* (and take a special look at Isobel !)

I think I’ve already seen several I really like. Click the present to discover all 16 new donation items you can get from buying a Donation Present at the Cash Shop for $2.50. Remember that this is what finances the site and the artists, and for those who can’t use the Cash Shop for any reason, you can get these items via trades and user shops.

Not only has Mauve, the one and only personal wardrobe assistant, had a promotion, but he has also had a make over it would seem. So don’t expect any more help when getting dressed you Human Avatar crazy Subetan because this Sir here now runs the Clothing Rack*. Yup.

Check him out. Good make-over? Or bad plastic surgeon?

And here is the latest minion revamp, the Paphos old and new I.D. photos:

The end of my “health break” has come and gone and now it’s time to get back to work.
Those two weeks have done me a lot of good but I still don’t feel quite right so instead of rushing back into the online world, I’m going to take it steady for a few more days until the end of the month.

I do have some good news though as J.S.NET now counts 5 affiliates and I am very proud to be affiliated with all of them. My new affie is called Kimmi* and her sites lives at Kimmi.Honey-Babe.net*. Right now she has this really colorful layout that you mustn’t miss out on!

I’d also like to take this moment to thank Patricia, owner of MinionMatch.com*. I mailed her with a concern a few days ago to which she immediatly replied, very polite and professional. I was not expecting a reply and even less such understanding and patience with me. In fact, Patricia did more for me and this site than I could ever have asked for. So I’d really like to thank her. Her website is well worth the visit and her team work very hard to make it this way. I definetly recomend visiting them if you are looking for minion suggestions for your pets (their speciality!), top quality graphics in all sorts of categories, or a good forum to join.

Now onto a few Subeta.org updates.

Over the last couple of weeks there have been more and more (boring plain brown) shop icons replaced with unique characters called the Shop Keepers.
I continue to update the Subeta Image Gallery* as soon as I learn about them.
(A quick note about the gallery: I have had to delete then re-add a few Battle Opponents because I had somehow managed to mess up the previews. Does this deserve an Oops tag do you think? Or am I forgiven? n_n Anyway, it’s fixed.)

I have a few more trophies to add to the Trophy Room, and 2 new games to add too, Stargazer and Trapped Minions. They were added a little while back but as you know my activity on the site slowed down quite a bit so updates were rare, in particular ones about Subeta.
