HAPPY NEW YEAR!

It's 2012! I don't know about any of you, but 2011 seemed to go really fast! Here is the new Henry's blog post:

Goodbye 2011......

As the last hours of 2011 tick by, I've been thinking back over the fun I've had with all of you this year. There were some Festivals and special events that have become Pandanda traditions, but we also added a bunch of new celebrations during the year. Remember these?

• March of the Snowmen
• Tropical Break
• Friendship Festival
• Game Days
• Free Elite Member WEEKEND

Questers reached new milestones during the year. In March, the first players reached Level 50 and summoned their own Dragon Companions. Maggie the Stable Master arrived in April, with new Horse Companions available to Questers. And in September, the first Super Questers reached the maximum Quest Level of 75. Questy added some awesome Quest rewards to his catalog for Super Questers!

There were lots of other nifty new things in 2011:

• Panda Gold in January
• New Login and Server Page theme in February
• New ways to pay for Elite memberships in March
• New Clothes Shopping Experience in April
• New Treehouse Shopping Experience in May
• Bank Vault in May
• The NEW Henry's Blog in June
• Facebook Photo Albums and the first Blog Poll in July
• Coloring Pages added to the Blog in September

Well, it is around 7:30pm in Pandanda Land on New Years Eve as I publish this final blog post of 2011. I am going to pop into Pandanda for a brief visit now, and I plan to visit again tomorrow, January 1st 2012 at 10am Pandanda Time.

Since it is already 2012 in most of the world, I will leave you with this Happy New Year picture from Mod Skippers. Don't forget to log in on New Years Day for your 2012 gift! You can get it from the catalog in the Clothing Co. on East Market Street!

Party on in 2012, my panda pals!
Henry

Cool! I was there for the surprise party henry had earlier! It was awesome.

-Blu!

A week to till the end of the winter festival!

So keep collecting those stocking stuffers! Its only 250 stuffers to get all the prizes :-)

In other news:
What is the most popular background?
Obviously it's the animated background we got for Christmas!

Girl's outfit?
Hard to say really.... Possibly a skirt with a hooded jacket.

Boy's outfit?
Ummm..... There weren't many member boys online at the time of this post so it's the basic non member outfit!

Non member girls favourite item?
Snowflake headband. To tell you the truth, I like it myself too!

Take a look at this cool glitch that was spotted thanks to Penguitt and RanRan!
You have to sit facing away from the camera so here is the best pic of it:


I didn't know there were bright red presents??? There are also some green ones also.
Also: What is YOUR favourite item? Leave a comment!
From.... Wait... I don't think I am supposed to say? Maybe I will leave it this time. Henry does leave out his name all the time :D

Merry Christmas!

I am writing this on Christmas night.... I hope everyone got the presents they wanted :-)
On pandanda, there is a free gift for everyone!

What the pics don't show is that it's animated! Wow! The snow falls in the background... It's very nice, But I might stick to my Beach Background.

I was looking forward to a clothes item... But oh well. At least we have a free gift!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Christmas Items + Coin Tips

Hi everyone, as you know there are new items at the clothing co; such as the key, the shopping bags, and more. At your house you can get a few new rugs like the Gingerbread man and the White Christmas tree. (Blu and Mist made a slideshow of it below) But as Betas we have learned that you should always buy whatever you have coins for, because it might not be back next year. Yeah, it isn't really easy to get coins, but here are some easy ways to get coins: 1) Stay at Pawthorne Forest and the longer you stay the faster the items will come. 2) Play the game Dragons Revenge it is very easy and you get coins quick. 3) Quests. Quests may take long but you get 50 coins. 4) Fish. Fishing is fun, and you can do it at Coco or Fishing Hole. At Coco is a little better because the fish are worth more coins. 5) Buy some Turbo Potions, then go to Darby Field and when the Bunny Chase starts use the potion. You usually get about 52 bunnies.
Hope these help, Cya!

I saw this post and I wanted to add some of my coin earning tips too.
1. Dragons revenge is a fun game, and it gets a lot of coins. Try to aim at getting 50 coins as quickly as possible, then quitting and starting again. My record for getting 50 coins is 30 seconds...
2. Ghost chase. Hard at first but probably the best coin-getting multiplayer game.
3. Quests. Yes, its boring. And yes, it makes you want to quit pandanda. But at 50 coins a quest it is a good way of getting coins.
4. Locations. The best location for getting coins will change from panda to panda and also computers. e.g. My old laptop was amazing at bunny chase, This laptop is great at Ghost chase, treasure chests at Darby field, and sapphires at the Forest. Blu's computer/panda gets a lot of fish etc.
5. Low graphics. Makes everything go faster, including the fact makes items pop up quicker.
That's all my coin earning tips.... I wonder if Blu has any?
Misty :-)

Fish fish fish fish fish. Fishing gets me the most coins. Plus, every other coin-making game frustrates me. Fishing is fun and is the best way to get coins. -Blu!

Another post on Henry's Blog! Awesome!

Game Day Today!

Hooray, it's Pandanda Game Day again! You can win double Coins for every multiplayer game you play today - Pen the Pig, Line4, Bunny Chase, and Ghosts of Misty Hill.

You also have a chance to win lots of Panda Gold from Moderators and me in special games of Bunny Chase and Ghosts of Misty Hill! The Mods and I will be hosting as many games as we can squeeze in between the hours of 6am-1pm Pandanda Time,  2-3pm Pandanda Time,  4-7pm Pandanda Time, and during my final visit from 8-9pm Pandanda Time. 

Remember, there are a couple of special rules for Game Day Panda Gold games. On Game Day you can only win Gold once from each Moderator. They will each keep a list of the pandas they have awarded Gold to.

The other rule is "no potions", but that's always a rule when you play for Panda Gold!

I will be visiting Pandanda at 6am Pandanda Time,  8am Pandanda Time,  12pm Pandanda Time then once more at 8pm Pandanda Time. You can click on each link to see what time it will be where you live.

And don't forget about the Festive Photo with Your Friends contest that I announced yesterday. If you missed that post, just scroll down or click that link to read all about it.

Play on, Pandas!
Henry 

Cool! I'm hoping that Misty will win some more stuff. She's much better than I am at Game Days! I'm so bad that I don't even compete! (Yeah... I prefer doing other stuff like fishing... or updating this blog!)

Good luck!

Festive Photo with Your Friends Contest!

One of the best things about the Holiday season is getting together with your friends. That is why I am pleased to announce the “Festive Photo with Your Friends” contest! The goal of the contest is to take the best seasonal picture of your panda with your friends (It's ok to include other pandas who are also playing who may not be on your friends list.)

The most festive, creative and original picture of you and your friends celebrating the holiday season will win the awesome prize of a gift certificate for a 6 month Elite Membership, 200 Panda Gold, and 5000 Panda Power. Plus, you’ll get another 6 month Elite Membership to give to a friend! 

There is a limit of one entry per email address (the one you used when you created your panda) per day. Entries must be received at contest@pandanda.com no later than 11:59pm PST on Sunday, December 18th. The winner will be announced on Saturday, December 24th in my blog.

Prizes

1 Grand Prize winner will receive:

• A 6 Month Elite Membership gift certificate for you
• A  second 6 Month Elite Membership gift certificate for your friend.
• 200 Panda Gold for you.
• 5000 Panda Power for you.

Here are a few tips:

• Be original and creative. It's ok to try and organize other players in the game to get the coolest, greatest shot ever! If players don't cooperate, though, it is not ok to bully them or be mean. We have so many players around the world, and some may not understand what you're saying. Also remember that safe chat players can't see what you may be chatting.
• Your picture can be taken anywhere in the game. It is ok to drop into a friend's tree house to take your picture. There are some pretty fancy tree houses out there!
• It's ok to crop your picture to whatever size you think looks nice, or you may submit an entire screenshot.
• Cropping the picture is ok, but digitally editing or enhancing your screenshot is not. Digitally edited submissions will be disqualified.

To submit your entry (have your parent or guardian help you):

1. Read and obey the rules. Entering the competition means that you and your parent/guardian agree to the rules. If you are under 13 years old, please ask your parent or guardian to review them with you, along with our website Terms of Use , specifically with regard to the use of submissions you send to us.
2. Ask your parent or guardian to email your entry to contest@pandanda.com from their email address, the one they used when they signed you up for Pandanda. Your entry MUST come from the email address that we have on file for your Pandanda account.
3. Type the words "Picture Contest" in the subject line of the email.
4. Type your Panda name in the text of the email for example "Panda Name: Paige."
5. Do NOT include your real name, house address, phone number, or password.
6. Email your entry to be received by Pandanda no later than Sunday, December 18th at 11:59pm, Pacific Standard Time (PST). There is a limit of one entry per valid email address per day.

A complete list of contest rules and a few helpful tips can be found here.

I can’t wait to see your pictures!

 Wow! Talk about a long post! Anyway. It's such a cool competition! I think that it's a fabulous idea!

Red and Green Day Tomorrow!

Wow, it is the second week of December already! Christmas will be here before we know it! It's time to celebrate the season with our 2nd annual RED & GREEN Day.

Tomorrow, Wednesday the7th, is the day to dunk yourself in red or green Panda Paint and put on your favorite red and green clothes. You could even wear a Santa or Elf suit! Remember, all pandas can buy Panda Paint from Fitch at the Clothing Co. on East Market Street. He also has a Santa hat that is available to everyone.

I will be making some surprise visits on Wednesday's RED & GREEN Day, and I'd love to see everyone participating and having holiday fun! If you see players who don't have any red or green, you could kindly offer to show them where they can buy Panda Paint and a Santa Hat. You can even talk to Safe Chat pandas if you use the Safe Chat Menu!

Follow me on Twitter @PandandaHenry tomorrow for my Tweets to see when I will visit. I will be taking pictures of happy pandas having fun with friends, helping other players, being kind, and spreading good cheer. That's what this time of the year is all about!

Make sure to mark your calendars for this Saturday's exciting Game Day! You can earn double coins on multiplayer games. Plus, find Moderators in Bunny Chase or Ghosts of Misty Hill for a chance to win Panda Gold! I'll be coming in on Saturday, too. I plan to visit at 12am Pandanda Time, 8am Pandanda Time, and again at 1pm Pandanda Time. I'll have more information for you later this week.

Festive fun coming up!
Henry 

Awesome! Red and Green Day and then Game Day this Saturday. This is one action-packed week!

Welwn ni chi!

HUGE DAY!!! And SNOW!!! And NEW CLOTHES!!! WOW!!!

December 1st is a triple-great day in Pandanda! Snow, new clothes, and HUGE DAY!

To be a part of HUGE DAY, just visit Paige in Bear Hollow for her Dragon Tears potion - it will make you HUGE! Have a HUGE dance at The Purple Door, go HUGE fishing at the Fishing Hole, play HUGE Bunny Chase and Ghosts of Misty Hill (maybe you will scare the ghosts!) Whatever you do, make it HUGE!

I am planning to get in on the fun of HUGE day myself! I will be visiting at 7:30am Pandanda Time, then again at 5pm Pandanda Time. You can click the link for both of those times to see when I will visit where you live. I'm going to be looking for lots and lots of HUGE pandas so I can take some awesome pictures for my blog!

And don't forget about the new winter clothes at the Clothing Co. They are sure to come in handy for keeping warm in Pandanda's first snowfall of the season. Yep, the Weather Forecasters were right - Pandanda is covered with a light, fluffy snow! Now it really feels like December!

What a great way to start off the last month of the year! I hope you agree with me - December is going to be awesome!

Keep warm, pandas!
Henry
