Hey Everyone,

Happy Duckversary!

Another anniversary has come and gone, and there’s still so much more to come!

It was going to be an eventful weekend, so NoncoTimes got postponed a bit to cover all the activities happening!

I have a few updates to share. The Nonconformist Times is now on Youtube!

If you have any videos that you would like to contribute, please let me know.

I’m happy to add John Wick’s masterpiece collaboration with Just Kyle as the first video; check it out below if you haven't already seen it and be sure to subscribe to @noncotimes on Youtube!

Note: The Nonconformist Times is now @noncotimes on X!

Be sure to read until the end to get all the details from this year’s NoncoDucks Reunion by Jase too.

We’ve got a lot to cover, so let’s get into it!

Happy Reading!

The Merchant’s Pilgrimage

In a harsh desert, the Merchant searches for MANDORA, a symbol of hope. Battling harsh conditions, he recalls past challenges that brought him closer to his goal. Lost in a storm, he finds a cave filled with treasures, including a doorway to the Upside Ducks' realm and an ancient, powerful lamp. Fueled by curiosity, he decides to explore the secrets of the Upside Ducks, beginning a new chapter in his quest for hope.

In case you missed it, NoncoDucks is getting its very own wine!

DuckMaster recently unveiled the wine's name and label design!

Duckversary

2nd Duckversary - Burn

A Duckversary wouldn’t be complete without a burn event! To celebrate the 2nd anniversary of Nonconformist Ducks, DuckMaster asked holders to burn OG Ducks and Cookies. What do you get in return? It’s always a mystery but the true believers know that it’s a risk worth taking.

Note: At the release of this issue the burn event has already completed. Please do NOT burn anymore OGs or Cookies!

The burn lasted for 24 hours and approximately 59 ducks were burned!

2nd Duckversary - Anniversary Suit

Duckmaster distributed Anniversary Suits for those who had decoupled ducks, allowing them to dress up their ducks and celebrate in grand style!

Those who dropped their wallets received a Dark Sultan Suit:

Friday the 13th

Jason Ducks, brace yourselves because Friday the 13th is just around the corner!

IYKYK! And if you don’t, jump in the pond (Discord) and find out more!

Leech Update

For those who fed their leeches to meet the last snapshot, leeches were updated on September 27.

Reminder, you have until the end of October to feed your leeches!

In Pond Map 5.0 for those who own a leech with souls, leeches will receive 10% of all NoncoDucks External revenues, with the share based on the number of souls they possess. Get all the details in issue #79 | Pond Map 5.0.

Duck Race 9/27

Final Duck Race - September

Congratulations to Jacoby for taking first place with a Grandma Duck!

Ducks on X

Ducks were loud and proud on X to celebrate the 2nd Duckversary, and it showed! Let’s keep the momentum going and bring more new duck holders into the pond!

New Ducks

We recently had a lot of new ducks enter the pond! Check out their X posts below and give them a follow!
