Ideas for earning crowns!
So you all know about the wonders of the friend code, right? I've never talked about it here, but you're all familiar with it, right?
no?
Ok, then go to Wizard101.com, log in, and then click this:
This will give you this screen (only with your own friend code):
Now if you read that graphic right, you've just noticed that if there's anything you should spam to your friends it's your little number. 56187-19125-50010-78271 -- There's mine. Go get yours!
If you click the "Email it to me" button, they send you this e-mail (only with your own friend code):
So, really, what you need to do is broadcast your number to your friends to EARN CROWNS TO GET THOSE MOUNTS! You're not going to be able to take those crowns with you from the test realm, ya know?
Y'all have message board accounts? Put it in your signatures.
Y'all have a cowboy hat? put it on your cowboy hat.
When I was a kid back in the 80's and stuff, we totally dug on stickers, yo. Make a cool sticker and put it on everything. OR, if you're all hip and cyberspace, why not put it on your Facebook, MySpace, blog, and YouTube pages? Twitter that thing! You want crowns right? Plaster it everywhere.
Here's an idea! What if you printed out a bunch of stickers with your friend code web address and stuck them on your candy that your family passes out for Halloween? THEN, not only are you giving kids some candy, but you're giving them the chance to make some crowns and give you some crowns in the process.
In other words, put that sucker on a sucker!
The new crown shop is calling your name! Rise to the call my friends! Get those crowns!
Happy Dueling!

Oh yeah . . . RAVENSCAR DONE!
yeah. I decided to get crazy with the cutouts on this poster. That took entirely too long to do.
(click to enlarge)
Anyway, so yup, I finished Ravenscar a few days ago, and I've just been too busy to write about it. Grizzleheim was an interesting experience for me.
At first I jumped on the test realm and tried to speed information so FAST out to my readers. It was like there was SUCH an urgency for me to report on the new awesomeness that was Grizzleheim.
You may remember this video.
Then I suddenly stopped dead cold in my tracks. All I wanted to do at that point was record some music from Grizzleheim and make a remix. So that's what I did, I stopped right there and made this remix.
I talked to my friend Caleb and he wanted to work on Grizzleheim a bit with me, so I brought out Kyle and myself and we worked through one world of Grizzleheim together. And then that was it. Caleb beat the game and hasn't played much since, and that's ok. Grinding for gear after beating a game or doing pvp until the next expansion comes out isn't really his thing. I digress.
Then there was a huge gap in time when I was just leveling the kids' characters to Grandmaster and playing Molly with Bailey.
Then I decided last week to just FINISH IT! Mounts are coming out, and well, the Raven$$ are going to be a HUGE hotspot for farming up money. It's going to be the place to be I think. That and the new tower instance for sure.
My impressions of Grizzleheim . . . Kingsisle improved their game a bit here. You have more awesome battle animations, more interesting pathing, more dangerous mobs, more spectacular boss battles, more interesting zone layouts. I just think these zones feel less "square" than the other zones, you know? I think they did a good job with how the zones ebb and flow together.
What were your impressions of Grizzleheim?
If they make the next world even better than Grizzleheim, then we are in for some amazing stuff here in the future.
My only complaint . . . it went too fast. I think that was everyone's complaint. I don't know if it's the teleporters or the amount of side quests, but it just seemed like it went too fast. Well, I'm going to be able to experience it again and again as I keep bringing my other characters through. Maybe sometime in the future I'll have more insights into Grizzleheim. As for Thomas, fork him . . . he's done!
One thing that I've been remiss on . . . grizzleheim housing items. You may see more stuff about that crop up here in the future.
Happy Dueling!

The Black Stallion Mount is so Death School
Check out this cool graphic that Sorion Hex made for me!
Very cool.
Thanks for the gift! You know it seems like a lot of death students are going to be opting for the Black Stallion as their mount of choice. Here I am trying to recreate the pose for Sorion's gift. ;p
You'll also notice that I'm wearing a new outfit thanks to the stitch feature. Now I can finally wear that outfit I talked about all the way back here.
Thanks again, Sorion!

Gift Giving a Slippery Slope to Gold Farming?
. . . LOL. You know, you give people a wonderful tool. a SPECTACULAR tool. And what happens: begging.
Wouldn't you like the ability to give a friend something in this game? Like, say you just really genuinely liked someone in game, and it was their birthday. How cool would it be to be able to buy them a gift . . . even something small?
You can just see KI really wanting to give us a taste of this important part of social interaction . . . and the moment you give us all the ability to do "good." Someone has to come along and use it for "bad."
At some point I have to just sit back and marvel at this aspect of human nature. For the most part, we all just do our thing. We run around, play the game, and do the right things. And then you get a small handful of people who constantly try to buck the system or get a leg up somehow. "Schemers" for lack of a better word.
Before the test realm here, all we had was the ability to gift treasure cards, but now it appears the door to something more insidious could open.
. . . begging could very well just be a beginning here. Gold Sweatshops in Wizard101? Can you imagine? Well, that's exactly what some people at Central are imagining:
Central talks about gift giving. (Also must reads: Automagic talks about gift giving. mywizard101 talks about gift giving.)
So what do you think? Can you ignore the spam that's going to happen or is the ability to give a gift worth it?
Let me know what you think!
