So, why was May 10th chosen? There was like at least half a dozen users in March and April. Even if you don't count admin, I think there were still at least 3 in April, 2009.

The official release of the site is what is considered the Magiversary.

14 years. It has come to my attention that Magistream has been a part of my life, for more than half my life. :lol:

I'm glad it's lasted so long. <3

It's wild to realize I've spent more than half of my life playing this game! I joined a few months after the site went up after seeing some of the eggs in other forums. I distinctly remember being really wowed by the phoenix egg and hatchlings. :D I remember when the Kitsunes were released and excitedly staring at the stream and frantically rushing to click when I saw an egg. I also remember someone selling me a pair of Autumn Kirins for a "pretty good" deal - 7.5k total I believe? It was a lot of gold at the time, so a few weeks later when someone was looking to buy them for 15k total, I couldn't resist.
LTS various creatures - PM if you're interested interested!

Since I arrived early enough, I tried to write up a summary here!

ImageImageImageImageImageImageImage
This year's Crystalwings are Fire/Water/Life/Earth/Air/Light/Void.
Hm, don't these elements remind you of a certain Stream animal?

Remy brewed up this new drink - Taste the Rainbow!
There's a party in your mouth. Literally.
Colorful confetti falls on the screen if you drink it.
Reminds me of Noelinos, 2021 Christmas was my first major event after joining here! Oh the memories!

Like many other of Remy's culinary masterpieces, this too has a chance to offer a surprise:
Oh, great, and a plaque falls on you.
If you check the Tokens tab, you'll find one of these "birthday tokens"(the file names):

ImageImageImageImageImageImageImage

Wow, is this...a reference to all past anniversaries and badges? I'm pretty new here so if these has been given out before...but quite touching, really!

But wait, this drink has even more to offer! You also have a chance to get this message:
You almost choke. Everybody looks at you as you cough and gurgle and spit out a cheery ball of hair.
Image

A Prism Fox! Of course the new Crystalwings have the same elements as them. Great to see here!


Meanwhile, I wonder if we'll be able to get Pygmy versions of 2021 Toy Crystalwings anytime soon.
Psst, I would love to be gifted some plushies, by the way...!
