Beans.

[Askeron Kyle]

I'm confused, I had 48 beans when I started feeding my 10pets, but after I fed 4 of them it started saying I didnt have enough beans to feed them. I thought it was a glitch so I started again, only for it to say I had no beans. I definitely had 48 beans when I started feeding them, so how did it go down to no beans after only feeding 4 of them?

I think only Prof. Dario Brighton will be able to help you with this, as nobody else is able to locate bugs and glitches in the code. Drop him a line at dario @ hol.org.uk (without the spaces) with a detailed explanation and hopefully he can look into it.

I sent an email to Dario as I was advised but didnt get a reply. Can someone tell me how to get beans, as I can't remember because it's a long time since I started Hol, and I have had two pets run away already and I have had most of them for a long time.

Hey, Askeron!

Fed your pets to make sure the running away part isn’t as much of a concern immediately. <3

Wish I could be of more help with the technical issues you’ve ran into, but as far as earning beans goes:

One way is certain Activities around HOL (Silvana’s Ravenclaw Garden over on The Roost offers beans for tasks, as an example, and there will be some upcoming options over the next couple months here on the main forums to watch for during May and June).

Check out the castle Newspaper, The Howler, where there will typically be at least one or two puzzles available to earn beans for submitting.

Another favorite place of mine is Book Club where they tend to keep a rotation of fun things going like Quick Quotes, and Literary Conundrum or Literary Road Trip where people can gain some beans as well!

Thank you very much Prof. Sindor for feeding my Pets, sending me beans, and giving me ideas of how to get them
