    Wait a second. . . are you Snowy the Arctic Fox, Mike?!

    • Mike Webkinz says:

      No that’s not me haha. That Snowy person always has a high score on Zingoz Bounce, but I can always beat it when I try hehe.

        • Gennelle Webkinz says:

          • playnowpuppy says:

            oh my gosh Gennelle or Mike my friend is BABYBUGGLE and something really wierd is happening lately! ok so we were talking on the phone as played webkinz and I saw a white dog named Abbie in the trading room and my friend said she had a white dog named abbie so I said what does she look like and how is her name spelled we weren’t in the same trading room I checked and I checked my phone she wasn’t even on! And she described this pet! So the pet asked me to trade and I told my friend the stuff she was trading and my friends said that it had her stuff! And the wierd thing is I only see this pet in the trading room on saterday! please help my friends shes really upset :(

          • playnowpuppy says:

          • Gennelle Webkinz says:

            Hi playnowpuppy, please tell your friend to email webkinzsupport@ganz.com with her username and the details of her issue.

          • playnowpuppy says:

      • Becky71W says:

        That Snowy pet is usually the high score for most games.

  2. TennesseeFrogs2 says:

    Not sure if this is the place to post, but the sail boat game isn’t working today.

  3. Kamots55 says:

    The reason I come to Webkinz Newz is so I can get caught up with all the events happening in Webkinz World and to earn prizes!

  4. littlefoot2014 says:

    i have mike but i named him peter

  5. prprprprp says:

    I got a perfect score! 7!! I GOT ALL OF THE QUESTIONS RIGHT! MIKE AND GENNELLE’S!! YAY!

  6. Bows22 says:

    I got perfect! Yay! And also the main reason I come to Webkinz Newz is simply because I want to know everything thats going on. Webkinz Newz tells me what pets are going to come out (like the Zombie pup and blossom giraffe which I might be getting) and what pets are retiring so I know when and where to pick them up! Also, Webkinz Newz showcases new designs (and old) of room themes and items! Webkinz Newz is simply the best, and so is Podkinz! Keep on rocking it Ganz, Webkinz is awesome!

  7. Jammer499858 says:

    My score was 4.

  8. ajj0403 says:

    Very cute honey bee Joel, it’s is super adorable! Gennelle do you think they’re going to make a honey bee? Because I would I would definitely get one! :D

    • prprprprp says:

      I probably would too, if it’s cute, but usually that is always the case for Webkinz. (except for the Zombie Pup…Ugh. Wish that didn’t have to come out!) But they would probably make a bee cute! :)

  9. prprprprp says:

    That is a cuuuuute honey bee! Anyway, now I am going to listen to Podkinz. Hey, FIRST COMMENT!

  10. Mike Webkinz says:

    Ah, I made a mistake with something I said! The Game of the Day was never “deluxe only”. I meant to say Deluxe games on the GOTD were originally only for Deluxe members but now anyone can play them!

    • prprprprp says:

      What does GOTD stand for again, Mike?…Just so that everyone else knows..you know…… :blush: ….hehe…of course I’m PERFECTLY CAPABLE of telling them….(*under breath* noooooot…) …..anyway….I’m going to go now…while you tell eveyone else what that means….bye. SWOOOOOSH! (and I’m gone–’until the fourth of July, ly, ly!’ LOL)

      • Mike Webkinz says:

        It stands for “Game of the Day”. At the top of the Arcade, there is a slot for this GOTD which changes every day! Playing this game will award you bonus KinzCash. Originally if it was a Deluxe game in the GOTD spot, only Deluxe members could play it naturally. But that was changed a while ago to allow ANYONE to play it even if they aren’t Deluxe. :)

        • prprprprp says:

          Yeah, I knew what a game of the day was. I just didn’t know what GOTD standed for, but I do now! Hey, yesterday was July 4th! I’m back! LOL

          • Pokekinz says:

            RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIBS!!!! And I got all 7 right. I guess for the segment you could call it….. Podkinz Arcade? I’m not the best with names, though. And could we add a comments section for the Share Center? I’d really like to see what other people thought about the drawings and such that I upload (If I do upload any).

          • playnowpuppy says:

            Hi Mike and Gennelle! I’m playnowpuppy and I just wanted to tell u I love your podkinz episodes, I’ve watched everyone! Also as for the game thing I got 6 out of seven and don’t worry Gennelle I was guessing some of those questions too! :) I think u should name your game 2 truths and a lie should be called the Webkinz game show with Mike and Gennelle or just plain Webkinz game show! Anyway these are my answers to the questions u asked 1. I love to go on webkinz newz to know all the up and coming things on webkinz and I also like to comment! 2. I like to enter contest because even if I don’t win it’s still fun to try! and for question 3. No, I don’t currently play on Amazing world or Zoe’s design school but I think I might try one of those games now! :) Thanks again Mike and Gennelle U 2 rock with a capital R :)

        • redgreen says:

          I love the new segment! if you are looking for a new name then you should do something like what’s in our kinzpost and use the arcade in it

        • playnowpuppy says:

          Oh, thanks for helping mike I’m glad none Deluxe members can play the game of the day too! GOTD smart :)

      • sparkledream7644 says:

        ok like LOL! I don’t know why this is so funny!

    • jkj1004 says:

      YAY! My honey bee picture is shown up there! Thanks Mike, and Gennelle! :D

    • Wolfy126 says:

      Dear podkinz, the main reason I come to webkinz news is to see all the new updates! I especially love hearing new podkinz episodes.

    • MidnightSky15 says:

      Hey! Anyone remember me? This is, @nihao9! I used to post comments on WKN a couple years ago, and stopped for a period of time, but now I’m back! I miss my old WKN friends, @ChicagoMade, @System Of A Down Chick (SOAD Chick), etc. I will always remember all my old WKN friends since they’re not on WW or WKN anymore. -MidnightSky15…A.K.A…nihao9
