Some Pictures from Game Day

Hi Panda Pals!

I almost forgot to share the pictures Sheriff Steele and I took during our visits on Game Day last Saturday. Maybe you can find yourself in them!

Thursday is Dress Like Your Friends Day! Get a bunch of your friends together, dress as much alike as you can, then go out into Pandanda and have a great time. And if you think you and your friends look really awesome, make sure to send me a picture! You can send your screenshot to screenshots@pandanda.com. I will choose some to post here in my Blog.

Party on, Pandas!

It's Game Day!

It's time to earn lots of Pandanda Coins and maybe even Panda Gold by doing what almost all kids like best - playing games with friends!

Yep, all you have to do is play the multiplayer games in Pandanda - Pen the Pig, Line 4, Ghosts of Misty Hill, and Bunny Chase - and you will earn double the normal amount of coins EVERY TIME you play during Game Day today.

As a bonus, if you find a Moderator hosting a special game of Ghosts of Misty Hill or Bunny Chase, you have the chance to win up to 250 Panda Gold! You will know it is a special Panda Gold Game because the Mod will tell you. You can't ask for Panda Gold - just play the game with the Mod, and maybe you will be one of the lucky winners! You can win Panda Gold one time from each Mod today.

If you are still a bit confused about how Game Day works, just scroll back to my blogpost from yesterday. There is more information there!

I welcomed Game Day by joining almost 450 of my Pandanda Pals at 12am Pandanda Time this morning. We played Ghosts of Misty Hill and Bunny Chase over all of the servers, and 76 different players won Panda Gold! I am getting ready to head back into Pandanda right now for about an hour to have more fun!

Game on, Pandas!

Saturday is Game Day!

Are you ready for Game Day on Saturday? Make sure your ghost-catching backpacks and bunny-catching nets are ready to go, so you can earn lots of Pandanda Coins, and maybe even Panda Gold!

All day long on Saturday, every multiplayer game will award Double Coins! That means every time you play Pen the Pig, Line 4, Ghosts of Misty Hill, and Bunny Chase, you will receive twice as many Pandanda Coins as you usually do. There is no limit to the amount of Pandanda Coins you can win!

Plus, you will have a chance to win Panda Gold from Moderators in games of Bunny Chase and Ghosts of Misty Hill. The Mods will be hosting as many games as they can fit into their shifts, giving you lots of chances to win Panda Gold. But instead of  awarding 10 or 25 Gold like they usually do, they will award 250 Gold and 100 Gold!

Now, not every Bunny or Ghost game you play will be for Gold. Only games where a Moderator is there, and that Mod has said that the game will be for Gold. The Mods will be traveling around to all of the servers, so you might have a better chance of winning if you play on a less-crowded server!

There is one change for Game Day to the usual rules for Panda Gold games. Normally, the rule is that you can only win Panda Gold once a day. But for Saturday only, you can win more than once a day, but you can only win Gold once from each Moderator.

For example, say you won Panda Gold from Maxxwell. If you play another game with Maxxwell, you can't win any more gold from him. But, if you see another Mod, like Skippers, later, and play and win a game with him, you CAN win Panda Gold again! Every Mod will be keeping a list of their winners.

One rule has not changed - NO POTIONS! Just use your regular Panda skills to catch those bunnies and ghosts, with no help from turbo or bunny potions. I know everyone will play fairly!

Sheriff Steele and I will be popping in during the day to play some games with you, too! We are looking forward to catching lots of ghosts and bunnies with our friends!

Game on, Pandas!

Get Ready For Zing Ballyhoo!

Wow, with all the excitement over the Follow That Arrow Contest, I almost forgot about another exciting Pandanda event - Zing Ballyhoo is coming back to Pandanda!

That's right, Zing will be back in Pandanda on Monday, September 24th. He will set up his blue and gold tent at Treehouse Lobby, and will scatter his Golden Tickets all over Pandanda land. Then he will wait for you to collect 10 Golden Tickets to exchange for his cool, super-secret prizes! I can't wait!

Zing's return isn't the only awesome thing happening next week. There is also a Pandanda Game Day on Saturday, September 29th. On Game Day you can win double coins for all multi-player games you play that day. And you also have the chance to win up to 250 Panda Gold from Moderators during special games of Bunny Chase and Ghosts of Misty Hill. I'll have more information about Game Day for you later in the week!

You still have until 11:59pm Pandanda Time on Sunday, September 23rd to send your Follow That Arrow Contest entry to contest@pandanda.com. You can read my post from yesterday if you need more information about the contest.

A few players have been confused about where to send their entry. contest@pandanda.com is not a website that you go to - it is an email address. You cannot send your entry from your Account Management page. To send your entry, you must open your email program and start a new email with contest@pandanda.com in the "TO" field. Then just type your Panda name and the answers for all 10 arrows in the message of the email, and send it to us!

I will announce all 6 contest winners here in my Blog on Wednesday, September 26th.  I do already know who one winner is - the player we received the first correct entry from. But I'm keeping that a secret until Wednesday!

Party on, Pandas!

Ancient Games Day Next Saturday!

Hey there, Panda Pals! Yes, you read the title of this post correctly. In honor of the huge world-wide athletic event that begins in London next Friday, I had a really cool idea for Game Day on Saturday. Since Greece was the birthplace of the Olympics, let's all wear our togas from the Summer Festival and pretend we are having Game Day back in ancient Greece! (Don't worry if you don't have a toga - you can still play!)

On Game Day, every multiplayer game will award double Coins . That means every time you play Pen the Pig, Line 4, Ghosts of Misty Hill, and Bunny Chase, you will receive twice as many Pandanda Coins as you usually do. There is no limit to the amount of Panda Coins you can win!

You will also have a chance to win Panda Gold from Moderators in games of Bunny Chase and Ghosts of Misty Hill. The Mods will be hosting as many games as they can fit into their shifts, giving you lots of chances to win Panda Gold. Instead of awarding 25 Gold for 1st place and 10 Gold for 2nd place like they usually do, they will award 250 Gold to 1st place and 100 Gold to 2nd place!

Don't forget, today is the last day to trade 10 Golden Tickets to Zing Ballyhoo for this week's prize. He will have a brand new prize bright and early Monday morning!

Party on, Pandas!
Henry

More July Fun!

Lucky Friday the 13th will be starting soon, with a chance for 13 pandas to win a 1-month Elite Membership Gift Certificate. Remember, all you have to do to have a chance to win is to play Pandanda. How easy is that? Winners will be announced in my blog on Saturday.

Zing Ballyhoo will be returning to Pandanda on Monday with his Golden Tickets and special prizes. I wonder what kind of items he found for us during his travels? We'll all just have to wait until Monday to find out!

You will want to mark your calendars to make sure you don't miss Pandanda Game Day on Saturday the 28th. On Game Day you can earn double coins for every multi-player game that you play, plus the chance to win Panda Gold from Moderators in Bunny Chase and Ghosts of Misty Hill.

See you on the 13th!

You can look for Moderators (and me!) to be hosting as many games as we can fit in between the hours of 6am-12pm Pandanda Time,  2-3pm Pandanda Time, and  4-8pm Pandanda Time. Games can be on any server, and we will be jumping from server to server to give lots of pandas the chance to win! Remember, you can win ONE time from each Moderator.

Pandanda Game Day This Saturday!

Another action-packed Pandanda Game Day is coming up on Saturday! Make sure your bunny-catching nets and ghost-catching backpacks are in good working condition so you are ready for your chance to earn lots of Pandanda Coins, and maybe even Panda Gold!

You will have a chance to win Panda Gold from Moderators in games of Bunny Chase and Ghosts of Misty Hill. The Mods will be hosting as many games as they can fit into their shifts, giving you lots of chances to win Panda Gold. Instead of awarding 25 Gold for 1st place and 10 Gold for 2nd place like they usually do, they will award 250 Gold to 1st place and 100 Gold to 2nd place!

There is one change for Game Day to the usual rules for Panda Gold games. Normally, the rule is that you can only win Panda Gold once a day. But for Saturday only, you can win more than once a day, but you can only win Gold once from each Moderator.

For example, say you won Panda Gold from Maxxwell. If you play another game with Maxxwell and come in 1st or 2nd place, you can't win any more gold from him. But, if you see another Mod, like Skippers, later, and play and win a game with him, you CAN win Panda Gold again! Every Mod will be keeping a list of their winners.

Green Sombrero Day!

Don't forget, today is Green Sombrero Day in Pandanda ! If you don't have your green sombrero yet, just pay a visit to Fitch in the Clothing Co. on East Market Street. Click on Fitch behind the counter, then click on the clothes hanger icon above his head to open the catalog. You will find the free green sombrero on the second page of the catalog.

I plan to drop by during the day to spend some time with all of my friends in their green sombreros, and take some pictures. So I want to see absolutely everyone in Pandanda with a bright green sombrero on their head!

Zing Ballyhoo is Back!

Hooray! Our traveling friend Zing Ballyhoo has returned to Pandanda with his Golden Tickets and trunk full of exciting prizes. His last visit was a short one, but this time Zing will be here for 4 weeks, with a different cool prize each week!

You can find Zing's Golden Tickets all over Pandanda, except in tree houses. Once you have collected10 tickets, visit Zing at his blue and gold tent at Treehouse Lobby to exchange your tickets for one of his prizes. Remember, you can only choose one Zing prize each week, so make your choice carefully! You can find out how many tickets you have collected by clicking on the Golden Ticket icon near the top right of your screen.

If you just can't wait to find out what Zing's first prize is, why don't you pay a visit to Carina's Pandanda Cheats blog. Carina1998 was the first blogger to post Zing's prize this morning. That's some dedication! I also saw that luangatao wasted no time getting Zing's prize. He posted about it in his blog Pandanda Novidades just a few hours after Carina1998. Congratulations to both of those bloggers and their blogs for super-speedy reporting!

Can you believe this is the last day of April? Wow, this year is going by so quickly! May is going to be full of fun, with Cinco de Mayo, more Zing prizes, and Pandanda Games Day already scheduled. Be on the lookout for more awesome events to be scheduled soon!

Party on, Pandas!

Level 75 Parties Friday!

Wow! On September 8, 2011, RainbowRacer, Lime12101, and Blowsight10 were the first Pandas to reach Level 75 in Quests. Now, 6 months later, there are 122 Pandas who have reached Level 75, the highest Level!

The parties will be on Palm server, which has already been Level Restricted to players at Level 75. I can't wait to chat and play games with all of you Super Questers. It's going to be Questerrific!

And don't forget, Saturday is another exciting Game Day, with double coins on all multiplayer games, and chances to win lots of Panda Gold from Moderators on Bunny Chase and Ghosts of Misty Hill. Lots of fun in Pandanda this weekend!

Fantastic February!

Wow, have you checked out the Pandanda February Calendar? We've got lots of things planned to help make the shortest month of the year one of the most fun months of the year!

Right off the bat, there was an awesome update in the Clothing Catalog. Lots of cool Valentine's-themed clothes and accessories; a hockey uniform, hockey stick, and skates; new player card backgrounds, and more! And you can still buy football stuff for the Big Game on Sunday. Go Team!

Zing will be leaving this Sunday, so make sure you have collected 10 Golden Tickets and traded them to him for his 4th and final prize. Once he leaves, his prizes are gone forever!

We will celebrate the power of friendship during the Friendship Festival, which begins on February 10th. You'll have 18 days to collect friendship bracelets to trade for cool Friendship Fest prizes. And on Valentine's Day, the 14th, we will have a Red and Pink Color Day.

I've got some special parties planned for Super Questers this month! On the 17th, all pandas who have reached Level 75 will be able to party with me on Palm Server. Then on the 24th, everyone at Level 50 and above will get their chance to party! There will be two party times on each of those days, so pandas all over the world should have a chance to participate.

Game Day returns on the 18th, with double coins on multiplayer games, and lots of chances to win Panda Gold from me and the Moderators in Ghosts of Misty Hill and Bunny Chase.

Dress up in purple, green, yellow, and gold for Mardi Gras Color Day on the 21st, then end that week with a super Free Elite Member Day!

February is going to be fine!
Henry

The Snows are Melting!

Hey friends!

Well, the Snowmen have marched out of Pandanda and back to their snowy hideaway. And it looks like they've taken a lot of the snow with them!

The snow is starting to melt away, revealing the ground and streets beneath. The Fishing Hole has thawed, and the ice skating rink at Harvest Grove is closed for the season. But it's still pretty chilly around Pandanda, especially with pandas carrying around Zing's new prize. Hope you've got some gloves or mittens - brrrr!!

Can you believe January is almost over? The month went by so fast! February will be here soon, and it's going to be fantastic! It may be the shortest month of the year, but it is going to be PACKED with fun - the Friendship Festival, Game Day, Free Elite Member Day, Valentine's and Mardi Gras Color Days, plus more! More? Yep, more! Keep reading my blog for updates!

Party on, Pandas!
Henry
