Builda Grilla Drilla appeared for me, he was the only alter ego I was missing. Maybe they're putting up a random alter ego from the ones you're missing?

Happy New Year to all!
Yeah, i am extremely disappointed too. I was so very looking forward to a new alter ego fm the well. What appeared as the grand prize was a FISHERY. What a major let down!!!

The only character I don't have is admiral thumpback and he's not in my well. Instead I have a choppy gift shop. What a letdown. I did get an airship this time as a bonus prize and I never got one of those before but I still would have preferred a character.

My Hallows eve quests reset but she is still at level 15.

If there isn't a new alter ego programmed in, the well will put in a random gem item. I believe that it will look at a previous alter ego for the month (so New Year's Countdown for January). If you have it, it will put in a random gem item. It may put a random alter ego before getting to the random gem item, but I'm not sure, as I haven't had that problem. When they were on hiatus, last year, most people were getting random buildings, companions, and Skylanders. I believe they have to be available to purchase, though. So don't expect a Skylander that isn't available, yet (i.e. the Skylanders that are programmed in, but not available to purchase), a companion that is not available to purchase (i.e. Diggs), or giant/alter ego house.

With the lack of update, this week, I hope they aren't going on hiatus early, especially with the addition of dark/light sections but no Skylanders to available for spin/purchase. At least, last year, they put in a January alter ego, but that was the last update until March.

I'm curious, though, if those who win a grand prize, now, will be available to get the new alter ego (if there is one). I know, before, that those who won a prize for a particular month before an alter ego was programmed in (usually by time travel) couldn't get the new alter ego. This was programmed in because of people time traveling ahead and winning random prizes before the alter ego was programmed in.

Admiral Thumpback is purchased with Kudos and not gems, so he won't appear in the well.

Admiral Thumpback was only won by buying him with kudos. At least that's how I bought him.

Edit: sorry I didn't see the reply above already caught that.

By the way--Happy New Year to everyone on the board!


Also, I'm worried that the hiatus has begun early, but it could also be that they are all off for the holidays and will program us in a new alter ego next week.

Big win here because we've been trying for Snowler Brawl and there she was...Happy New Year. I was curious about what would be there for those with the complete set. A random house would have been a let down and makes those hoards of stones even less useful. I guess if updates stall then I'll go gem collecting until they release some new stuff.

Decided to go for New Years' Countdown with the leftover stones from Wishing "Well" Weekend and actually got him at 60 stones. Well, that's some compensation, thanks Willy.
Unless it's an actual hiatus, chances are they're on holiday break, this last week's sale was pretty uneventful as well so they probably didn't actually update the game after xmas.

Happy new year!
After not having the last three alter egos we needed in the well for wishing weekend, I was pleased to see hoppity pop fizz in our well.
Sorry some people got disappointed, but I am glad for the people getting what they need.

Now if Cupid flame slinger and lucky boomer would just pop into my islands I would be all set

If they do go on hiatus and not give is a new alter ego for the next couple of months, I would about expect Cupid Flameslinger to be in the well in February and Lucky Boomer in March. But that all depends on if they take a hiatus and for how long. I kept thinking March was when they started having new alter egos, last year, but it may have even been April. I need to check next time I'm on.

I have t really been playing much, espespecially during the holidays. I've mainly been playing to do the timed quests. If they go on hiatus for a couple of months, I'm not sure how often I'll play. I do need to level up all the Skylanders I've gotten since Trap Team was released, though. The only ones I have at 15 are a few Trap Masters (mainly because I use them more and have double XP on them).

My prize is the boys clubhouse. Can't say I'm excited, but it could be worse.

Last year, I got Fiznik in the first month without a new alter-ego and was very excited.

Happy New Year, Everyone! I hope you all find what you're hoping for in the well until this hiatus is over.

I finally decided to check and found a Trap Master house in my wishing well. I figured why not? Hopefully, if they add a new alter ego for this month they'll reset the well.

I got a castle. Not what I wanted, but I don't have one. It was a long few months without updates, so I wonder what this year will bring?

#24 Posted: 15:24:28 02/01/2015
I already had all Alter Egos, so my big prize was a house for female skylanders. Not a big deal but a fair one. Now i have two of them ;-)

PS: It was not the first month without a new Alter Ego. Check this forum for 2013 entry and as i remember you will find another example.

New Year's Countdown was released in January 2014. There wasn't another alter ego until May 2014 (Builda Grilla Drilla).

I had a stone house in my well but I do have all but the newly released guys. My son finally got a chance at New Years Countdown and with Gulper won him in 59 stones. Last year I think I messed up by time traveling his game and January 1st he had a random gem item :-( bad mommy and I havent TT'd since.
I believe the random items happened like this last year until Builda Drilla came out in April. If I remember right it was 3 months of personalized deals but nothing really new after New Years Countdown.

Out of curiosity, did you already have 5? I'm curious if dark house or dragon lair will appear in well if already maxed out.

I have sundae slobber tooth. We started playing in summer of this year so don't have all the alter egos.

Got him in about 60 stones--no gulper--won the cash jackpot, a fishery, and sundae slobber tooth back-to-back-to back. That was surprising! My luck meter wasn't even half way up!

I like that the alter egos people don't have are available for them--companions would be great too--and some of the high cost gem houses are nice. But I felt sorry for the person who got a fishery!! I win at least 1-2 of those per month anyway. I would've been quite annoyed with that as a top prize!

Hi MabuMommy,

Thnx for empathazing with me my dear ngbr (yes, you're one of my 100 frens) I got over my disappointment. At least i got something fm the well. Happy to read other gamers winning "keepers" to further their games. Good luck to those who are still trying.

#36 Posted: 19:48:07 04/01/2015
Well so far every time I stop playing and then come back to it later it shows I didn't win sundae slobber tooth and he's back in the well. I've " won" him 4 times so far....I hope this stops soon cause I'm running out of luck meter. I don't care that I have to keep winning him lol I just don't want to lose him for good! I even manually saved to cloud and it did it again when I got on today. I have pics of this, with me getting congratulated with the meter at various heights. I never had that happen before, the first time was like wtf? Now I'm just like. Oh, again

I got an observatory, which is nice. I wonder if they're going on their hiatus now but they've effectively let us know they'll be back for the light and dark characters...
