Daily Chance

Daily chance was released in 2006, possibly due to numerous users asking for free stuff in the Site Feedback forum.

Mechanics
On each of Gaia's landing pages an animated icon appears in the top left corner; upon clicking it the user recieves a gift. Gifts range from worthless games items, to small amounts of gold, to shop items, in the majority of the time prizes are of little value.

Glitches

 * Occasionally, it hangs up on the "Games" landing page, granting no item.
 * When first released, it gave out many unreleased flowers (presumably from unreleased Gaia Towns regions), as well as rare fishes. These items were turned into crumpled newspaper by the admins, but the rare fish masks that were made before this happened were not unmade.
 * A sneak peak of the Monthly Collectible Mini UFO was revealed a few hours early, some users recieving one pose of it from Daily Chance. Good luck finding evidence for it, though, Fleep cleaned up after causing this glitch.
