Didn’t we get 150 KC before just for playing? Now it seems we only get 50… or am I remembering it wrong?
Yes! Thought it was just me. I also thought it was because I played on my iphone and my score wasn’t displayed as I played. It is definitely not worth the time if we only get 50 KC. Too bad. I used to enjoy the community event.
I wish there was a way to close the pop up box for the event. There’s no reason to keep bothering us to tell us the event is closed especially when we’re playing a game. It’s really annoying.
That is snow awesome! LOL
Hardly anything is ever completely explained and not many responses to questions, except for other players that have successfully figured it out.
Am I the only one who avoids these because they cause anxiety!?! They are so frustrating….there’s always too many pets in the same area, you can’t see where you’re spraying etc. Plus they take SO LONG! Even the pop up announcements at the stop of the screen saying it’s on, or over are annoying. It’s a cute idea, but there must be a better way to do them.
I totally agree. It’s not fun, and it makes me irritated and anxious.
Nope. Sincerely NOT fond of this game or the growing flower game. Takes too much time, too hard to hit the dang sweet spot, the rewards aren’t worth it and as a housewife, I’ve got better things to do, as my mother would have said.
I’m laughing very hard right now because yes, Msamommy, they cause ME anxiety too! I agree with everything you said! I’ve tried the fantastic flower and the snowman a few times and yes, I just end up frustrated and wishing I’d spent my time in another way;)
Lol rather comforting to know that I’m not the only one! :D Thought it was just me!
AHHH, yep, same here. I’ve only gotten in 1st & 2nd place only a few times, rip.
Fedorovgirl, use your school ribbons to click on the skill cards booth. After purchasing the amount you desire, click on the statue next to the skill cards booth. It will bring up a menu with your current pet. If this is the pet you wish to apply the cards to, drag them up to the designated area. If it is not, choose, “switch pet” and choose the pet you wish to apply the skill to. Babies can not be given skills until they become kids, as far as I know.
@OtterPikaLove — Thanks for taking the time to explain that! I’m still wondering how the Skill Cards actually /help/ your pet to do specific things mentioned in the Cards. Hopefully that’ll be covered in some detail in a future Podkinz :)
I am working on my Sewing and Negotiating skills. The pet that I apply Sewing Skill cards to has a chance to get the materials back after making an item on my Sewing machine table (plus a Recipe card for pink jeans! :) ), and the pet with better Negotiating skills may get a percentage off of items bought/sold in the W/Curio shops. Mining Skill cards gets you better pricing for gems, and Speed cards make you speedier!
@Zooooooz – Thank you very much; this is exactly what I was wondering about — exactly /how/ the Skill Cards help your pet(s). Much appreciated!
Oh my gosh, fantabulous!! Thanks, Next team & I prefer this way over the flower one, lol
I like the new prizes!
“Now that’s snow joke!” So clever! Who thinks of this stuff? lol :)
ok. yay. this is a NEXT post. have held my tongue for too long now. I KEEP GETTING JIPPED OUT OF UNIVERSITY CREDIT and it just happened again, so i can now confirm how it is happening. any idea how hard we work for those scores? well, i do. usually i get get A or better. firstly, was taken back to after spent 375 tickets on SEWING to lower level & got repeat access to recipe i had already made!!! now, just purchased and applied 75 to upgrade my speed & have figured out what is happening! have been taken back to level as though was first time, when I only have one pet and should be building, building, building at this point and am instead HERE MAKING MY CASE. please help. best, k.
Please contact webkinzsupport@ganz.com so they can investigate
Have the Skill Cards in the NEXT Academy ever been discussed in a Podkinz/Mini Podkinz episode? I’m asking because I still don’t know how to acquire/use them. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
I am learning (slowly) how the Skill cards work :) For every 5 cards ‘purchased’ with Skill points and applied to a pet, that pet moves up one level in the category you bought. Each level gives that pet a chance to keep Kinz cash or move faster…Negotiating skills gets better bargains at the W-Shop/Curio Shop, Sewing skill cards may return materials to your dock for re-use, Mining skill cards gets better pricing for gems, etc. So, every time you apply a Skill card to a pet, that pet alone moves up another level. I buy them in the bundle pack (5 skill cards, all for the same skill) to save a bit, but they are 350 Skill points, so I am a professional student! lol
Very close, except that the number of skill cards required to go up a level increases each level. So Level 1 is 1 skill card, Level 2 is 5 Skill cards, Level 3 is 10 Skill Cards, etc.
Good to know! Thanks for the info, Sally! :)
