Better than a Rubber Duck Convention

Posted by Doctor Dimm on June 22, 2014 at 2:00 PM

I appear to be pressing these little typing things right now to create sentences on a virtual monitor to be transmitted across the globe via blog post. Wowza! This better be good, because the Labs are having me miss the Rubber Duck Convention for this post.



Annnnyhoo, the reason they're having me up here is to advertise our new Toon T.A.G.S. (Totally Awesome Graphic Simulation) Update. Every Toon in Toontown uses it, which means plenty of you will be excited to hear about the new features! Let's see, ermm... Hang on, just have to find my notepad.

Aha! So, first feature: They'll no longer block your view! Our complaint department has complained about your complaints for quite a while now, so we decided to check it out. Turns out I just spilled a bit of grape juice on the marginification magnifier and got it all stuck up in the center. I'd apologize, but there are never any circumstances in which you should apologize for grape juice. A duck's gotta have his grapes.

Next up we have the largely coveted tap-able whispers. Save the extra five seconds of opening your friends list and pressing the "Whisper" button by being able to just tap the whisper itself to reply! Toon T.A.G.S. enthusiasts out there I'm sure are having a fit of excitement right now -- with good reason. Just picture the amazement of --

Okay, nope. Can't do it. Yes, we have a Toon T.A.G.S. Update. How am I supposed to make that exciting? Bah, I always get stuck with these boring ones. There's plenty of strictly confidential things Loony Labs has been working on like the Anti-Cog Control Hat, Propeller Packs, that weird canvas with the giant mechanical glove in Surlee's office, some sort of Silly Meter thing... But of course, I'm not allowed to even mention the names of any of that stuff. Strictly classified! No peeps here. Much more exciting than Toon T.A.G.S., though.

June 22, 2014 [ttr-beta-v1.2.7]

• Overall performance and stability enhancements

Awesome! I'm watching a Twitch gameplay and the game looks great! Keep up the toontastic work guys :)

CJ said on June 22, 2014 at 2:02 PM
Exciting news!

Rosy said on June 22, 2014 at 2:03 PM
Will we still get our playtimes?

Sir Alvin said on June 22, 2014 at 2:04 PM
Aw man! I was hoping there might be a few beta key tasks added. But thanks for the update and all those features we've been asking for!

Bro said on June 22, 2014 at 2:06 PM
Sounds Toontastic!

TerribleTowl said on June 22, 2014 at 2:06 PM
Just finished my first session of TTR! Had a blast! Really brought back some good memories of Toontown. Made a few friends, destroyed some cogs. It was awesome! Already reserved another spot. Thank you Toontown Rewritten!

BrightNightLight said on June 22, 2014 at 2:10 PM
Awesome!! That is a GREATT idea!! I've been reading everything from when I first opened this thing up!! But, not commeting.. So I decided to come in again!!! :D I'mma soooo Proud of yall and everythin' yall have done as I do say so Myself!!!! Awesome Progress :) Keep up da TOONTASTIC work!!!!!! Ha ha!!

ShadowGaming said on June 22, 2014 at 2:13 PM
Awesome!

Sheriff Thunderroni said on June 22, 2014 at 2:16 PM
No key restock? I am a few playtimes away from daisys garden and I hope my progression there wasnt for nothing!

Spearsz said on June 22, 2014 at 2:20 PM
TTR Team, I don't know how to say how glad I am! I finnaly got my first playtime scheduled at june 28! But before this, I really suffered at the playline because of the crashes. So, if you guys could fix it, I would be very happy! Thank you guys! U r awesome!

Crazy said on June 22, 2014 at 2:22 PM
Yay! I never liked having to click on the friends tab first. I got the reference by the way. ;) Keep up the good work TTR! Everything just gets better and better by every update. Also, I'm not sure if this has been fixed since I played yesterday, but I was on Silly Street in the Bliss Bayou district when I went to the fishing pond on that street and noticed that the fisherman seemed to be "Out on lunch break". In other words, the Fisherman on Silly Street wasn't there and I hope that the team fixes that. I can't wait to use these new features!

Edgar said on June 22, 2014 at 2:33 PM
NICE!

Baron said on June 22, 2014 at 2:41 PM
This isn't just one of those average thank you so much comments. I think you guys are great people for VOLUNTEERING your own time for kids who loved toontown and whose hearts were broken when it closed. You guys should feel good about yourselves and work hard to keep toontown rewritten going as long as possible. It may just seem like a little fun game and a way to make people happy but YOU are doing a great thing! My parents said I am too old for toontown at age 10. But I am never too old for toontown rewritten! Great job! Thank you more than I can even speak. I hope you understand what I am trying to say. TOONS OF THE WORLD, UNITE!

Loopy Whiskerpaw said on June 22, 2014 at 2:45 PM
You guys and your T.A.G.S! You sure do love 'em! Dat grape juice

Airspeederz said on June 22, 2014 at 2:51 PM
Another step open to public I say! Keep on doing what your doing TTR, Toon on!

Coconut said on June 22, 2014 at 5:00 PM
Yay!! The whisper problem is fixed!

fireball said on June 22, 2014 at 5:00 PM
keep up the good work

Princess Lily said on June 22, 2014 at 5:02 PM
Awesome update! Finally, I don't have to ignore a whisper during a cog battle! Oh, by the way Doctor Dimm, if you like grapes, I heard that the lemonade stand at the edge of ToonTown has some really good grapes. I think. :P

Whiskers said on June 23, 2014 at 1:30 AM
I can't wait until TTR is released It is getting a lot more popular I can't reserve any places and the playlines are days long! Thank you guys for working so hard to bring back toontown! Always remember - A duck has gotta have his grapes.

Piper said on June 23, 2014 at 1:31 AM
Sounds toontastic! I can't wait for toontown to come to public! Its going to brighten my year up so much! <3 Thanks for doing all this guys! You're the best <3

Bismouth said on June 23, 2014 at 2:40 AM
Cool! Keep up the good work, TTR Team! I can't wait to play!

Secret Spy said on June 23, 2014 at 3:26 AM
By far, one of the best bug fix updates yet. The best one however, is the no more greener bug fix. Thank you, TTR team!

toontownfun said on June 23, 2014 at 3:35 AM
Can't wait to VP

the great boy said on June 23, 2014 at 3:36 AM
Looking forward to see what you have done:)

scamper2006 said on June 23, 2014 at 4:34 AM
Awesome!

Skyler said on June 23, 2014 at 4:59 AM
Awesome! I can't wait to play!

Galactic said on June 23, 2014 at 6:08 AM
OMG! In the last paragraph, it tells us what to see in the future. Anti-Control Hat probably accessories. Propeller pack I think Lawbot Field Offices! Mechanical glove, maybe Surlee is building the chairman, thinking it will help the toons, but then becomes the Cog Father. Finally, the silly meter, which had potential but Disney only made it April Toons day, which Joey can control now, and animated objects, so I think TTR can do something with the silly meter. Anyway that's what I think all that means

cool duck said on June 23, 2014 at 6:29 AM
that is toontastic ty very much

chloe huffle buffle said on June 23, 2014 at 6:36 AM
yay! so excited!!!

Tiptoes said on June 23, 2014 at 7:13 AM
I keep getting disconnected and when I get in (since update last night) I get dc'd when using tunnels or door to Gag shop.. Other than that I have to say, "great job" ... Love the game!! Hope this is fixed soon though.

Dr.Coconut said on June 23, 2014 at 7:28 AM
You guys are doing an awesome job! Keep up the good work! I can't wait to play for myself

Sally said on June 23, 2014 at 7:32 AM

Bro Beans said on June 23, 2014 at 7:55 AM

Yay! I scheduled my playtime for the only available slot, and I will get to play at 4:00 am TT time, but 6:00 my time on the 25th! I have to get up early, but I DON"T CARE, as long as I get to play TTR again!

KingSpikeWhiskerPants said on June 23, 2014 at 11:41 AM
Sweet! i only have 6 more hours to go!

GracefulLynx said on June 23, 2014 at 12:23 PM
Yeah, grapes are VERY important for a duck! QUACK! On an unrelated note, I found a relic from Old Toontown, years ago when I played this every day and got the mail from Toontown. It's a Halloween poster! On the back ( the front wished me a Happy Halloween ) It had the top car racers, tips for what gags to earn you Skill Points, the first Toon designs, and a newsletter! Brings me back to those amazing days. c:

loud coocoo ruffelnugget said on June 23, 2014 at 1:10 PM
cool

Spunky Monkey said on June 23, 2014 at 1:44 PM
While its not utter GAME changing, its still good to see little annoying things worked out on. I hope you guys can add some nice features though. Don't fail me,Toon Council!

Prof. Wacky Crinklespeed said on June 23, 2014 at 1:47 PM
This is Toontastic! I can't wait to try the features!

Lemonade Stand said on June 23, 2014 at 1:56 PM
This duck keeps coming up to my lemonade stand to ask for grapes, I only sell lemonade!!!

Lemontail said on June 23, 2014 at 2:05 PM
Alright! Another great update! Thanks and I can't wait to play!

Princess Ginger Twiddlebubble said on June 23, 2014 at 2:24 PM
Propeller packs? Interesting..

Dee Dee said on June 23, 2014 at 3:16 PM
Ducks want grapes. Hey, the world's the way it is! It just can't help it!

Lucky said on June 23, 2014 at 3:46 PM

Yay for the whisper update—that, I think, was the most annoying thing for me (not being able to click on whispers). Thank you guys!!

Scirbe Toons said on June 23, 2014 at 5:06 PM

Apparently, if I go fishing, I am resetting a district somewhere. Uh oh, I accidentally got pulled onto the fishing dock! Sorry, distri-- Oh, yay, you fixed the bug according to maintenance! Phew!

A duck's gotta have his grapes.. LOL

Trixie The Second said on June 24, 2014 at 9:09 AM
OH. MY. GOSH. I just recently watched as the time ticked down for me to play on Toontown Rewritten. I was patient, and waited for a whole three days, but let me tell you, it was TOTALLY worth the wait!!! I can honestly say that I'm in line again to play, and that's how I will play until Toontown Rewritten is open to all of the public. Don't listen to any of the toons out there that are criticizing Toontown Rewritten, because one positive thing outweighs all of the negatives. I'm so amazed at how far this has come, and I'm so excited for all that's to come! Thank you so much for everything you are doing, Toontown Rewritten. It really means a lot to me and Trixie (and Trixie the Second)

Vegeto said on June 24, 2014 at 9:11 AM
I absolutely LOVE playing! I have one request though, can you put my name, Vegeto, on the white-list? I'm kind of tired of my fans, and my friends calling me "Veggie" all the time. :/

Ziggy said on June 24, 2014 at 9:52 AM
This is awesome! on my first playtime I always wanted to whisper back to my friends in cog buildings, and I couldn't go to my friends cause my friends list was crashed, so I couldn't see who was online so now Im really happy with this update. Thanks guys for ttr Im so excited to play, keep up the good work

Citrulla Lapislapsus said on June 24, 2014 at 10:02 AM
I'm very happy ! :D Toons of the world unite !

Delightful Red said on June 24, 2014 at 10:24 AM
I love to hear the news! Keep up your fascinating work!!! =)

Royal Cat II said on June 24, 2014 at 11:46 AM
Very nice. Can't wait for the game to be available to the public! Keep up the good work TTR! (:

Blue Rockey said on June 24, 2014 at 1:14 PM

Pie R. Square said on June 24, 2014 at 2:05 PM
Are you guys still giving away beta keys other than daisy's garden quests? Good job on the game!

Posie said on June 24, 2014 at 2:46 PM
I have my second PlayTime tomorrow night and I couldn't be more excited! So proud of you guys! Super anxious for public release.

Duke B.D Crunchybounce said on June 24, 2014 at 3:09 PM
I cant wait until this comes to public, u guys are just making me remember the good days.

MasterTG3 said on June 24, 2014 at 3:42 PM
Nice Update

Dave said on June 25, 2014 at 6:08 AM
I woke up at 4am to play TTR and I have no regrets! Thank you guys for remaking the same amazing game (though with updates :D) that I played 7 years ago!

Prof. Wacky Crinklespeed said on June 25, 2014 at 6:34 AM
Wow! I can't wait until full release... And everybody... I realized something.. At the toon council presidential elections... Slappy said: "The only thing i have to say, no matter who wins I know that toontown is going to grow to be even more..... "toontastic" See?! He stuttered! What happens... if he is actually a cog...

Brown Bear said on June 25, 2014 at 7:23 AM
Oh man... These updates are great! I was really hoping a key restoration, I just hit Daisy's Garden!

King Spike said on June 25, 2014 at 8:22 AM
Additional convenience for toons who communicate frequently, awesome.

goodyule said on June 25, 2014 at 8:40 AM
nice!

Zoot said on June 25, 2014 at 9:33 AM
A duck should always get his grapes, huh? Better watch out for glue, then; I've heard that a nearby lemonade stand keeps that in stock for "emergencies". With that video out of the way… Dimm, I think that T.A.G.S. update is awesome! Maybe not better than a rubber duck convention (DuckyCon?), though… and to be honest, you are just as bad as keeping secrets as my sister. ;)

Tiara said on June 25, 2014 at 10:00 AM
Thanks so much for all the hard work you have been doing to help the game run more smooth and better! Keep up the hard work please!

AJ said on June 25, 2014 at 10:29 AM
Cool, but that's too bad that I never had a chance to try. The line sends me 4 hours backwards every 10 mins.

Lucy Heartfilia said on June 25, 2014 at 11:10 AM
Sounds great! But... I hope the game will finish so we can actually login when we want. My friends and I are all scheduled at different times!

Carcino said on June 25, 2014 at 11:14 AM
Good Work! Be sure to keep it up.

Trey PrettyPants said on June 25, 2014 at 11:54 AM

i love this game

ThunderStorm said on June 26, 2014 at 3:58 AM
This is just one more "Thank you!" comment for people who are working on Toontown Rewritten. Guys, you are the best! All you are doing is really amazing, I'm really happy that you're doing this project, and Toontown Rewritten exists, and I'm very grateful to you. Thank you :D Oh, yeah, I also wanted you to know that there are fans of Toontown not only in English speaking countries. Personally, I'm a teenager from Russia, and I always loooooved Toontown. I started playing it even before I learned English :) I believe that I'm not the only one, and that the thing you are doing makes happy really more people than you think. So thank you once more! We appreciate your work!

King Crazy McTwist said on June 26, 2014 at 5:19 AM
I just entered my PlayTime and feeling incredibly nostalgical! However, I'm having way too many timeout issues and whenever I try to fight a cog, the game just freezes. Other than that, this is really amazing!

Lancelot Whistlethud said on June 26, 2014 at 6:03 AM
Nice so now I just need to click the name of the toon instead of going to the friends list selecting an online friend and clicking whisper then typing it in? Nice.

Flappy Sillysticks said on June 26, 2014 at 7:10 AM
Hi, My name is flappy silly sticks from toon town online and I just want to say that I am very impressed into the amount of effort you guys are putting your new game called "Toon town Rewritten "! I hope you keep up the great effort so fall. By the time is Augest I guess you guys will be putting on the cherry on the sundae you know what I mean? So keep it up toon town members and staff and I will see you all when the game will release!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

joey said on June 26, 2014 at 7:12 AM
TOONS OF THE WORLD UNITE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Blueybluepants said on June 26, 2014 at 8:22 AM
I so cant wait for toon town to come out! I am going crazy! Oh I want to play in the summer! *sigh* Its okay if you get it out during school though.....

mak123432 said on June 26, 2014 at 9:23 AM

ShadowShade said on June 26, 2014 at 10:01 AM

Good ol' Ricky Dynoboom (Dynaboom) said on June 26, 2014 at 2:47 PM
Canvas with a mechanical glove in Surlee's office? Cool. It must be post-modern art or something. And that "duck has to have his grapes" thing made me laugh. :P
