And I have a question for anybody who can tell me the answer… If Webkinz already posted one of your videos from Youtube on here, can they do it again, bc I have tons of cute videos on YouTube! I have been posted on here once, around mid-August. :) JUST WONDERING!
I have TONS webkinz plushies! I believe I have around 130! That includes hamsters, kinz-klips, zums, and even some webkinz I got without the codes! Whenever I recieve a webkinz plush, code or no code, I love it with all my heart, and take good care of it. My 3 most recent Webkinz plush are, Flo the Flutter Pig, Nigel the Pelican, And Chippy the Chipmunk. I love collecting webkinz! I love them so much, that I even have them on a display in my room. I call it my Webkinz Shelf. One of my favorite memories was either recieving my first Webkinz plush on my b-day, or recieving my Flutter Pig through the mail from one of my fav. teachers!
Sorry typo it’s supposed to say “when the game first came out”
Go Cowabelle!!!!! More freedom!!! I don’t want all the unhealthy food in the W-Shop to be taken away because tons of recipes use them, I only visit the Employment Office once a day so big downfall there, I like Super School Days, Only 1 theme for the year stinks, and I do want a little bit of change (we have an opportunity to have some benefits here- let’s take it!). Also I like how this episode said what I’ve been saying since Cowabelle entered the race- we only got 1 SPREE! roll the the game first came out! So go Cowabelle! #JoinTheadventure
Interesting episode! I’m still voting for Dex though! How often does Ganz release new Podkinz episodes? I might send them an email! ***MidnightQueen***
Twice a month! :)
Awesome! Thanks Gennelle!!! ***MidnightQueen***
When I was little I had a plush penguin named snow white and I took her on a trip or something and then I just lost her and never found her again : (
Sorry for your loss, babycup. ***MidnightQueen***
Oh my gosh they put me in this episode!! Thanks guys!!
I like Ms Cowline she ran a school and is older so she can deal with a community and finances . And all those parents so leading a school all this time and it works well shows she is a leader. Maybe she might make the school classes at least FINISHABLE in the Kinz Academy ;) . So many people give up NO WAY is there of getting LEVEL 10 in each class or the prizes there. WE CAN ONLY HOPE things get better there.
I want cowabelle because the rest have disadvantages with it but I don’t think she has any disadvantages like daisy removing some foods in w shop tabby giving less coins even though she will change the time to 4 hrs ms cowaline will remove super school days dex dangerous will not give out new room themes for a year and letting his game be on game of the day for a month and Sheldon is doing nothing with no changes
aid her mother in some important decisions. So vote for Ms. Cowoline! #moovingforward
Wow, cool room, Anna! That is nice!
I don’t know who to vote yet! I am going to wait to see what everyone says, but I know I am NOT going to vote for Sheldon Turtle because he wants to leave everything be in Webkinz World! No changes? I want changes, they’re fun!
Cowabelle =] she’s not telling us what to do or change.. We are just getting more freedom. #JoinTheAdventure
Exactly Cowabelle is the best choice!
ya freedom to go to school yay :(
DON’T vote for Daisy Doe, sportsgirl1!!!!!!
Yes Don’t vote for Daisy Doe!!!!!!
I’m not going to ethier because of the same reson but some people don’t like changes.
I agree. Sheldon is great for “chill dudes”, but Tabby Von Meow is a real leader who will change Kinzville for the better! #changerightmeow
but Cowabelle really is doing something for everyone! All the other canadaites are doing stuff for their job!!!!!!!!!!!
yeah im whith you go tabby!!!
I’m voting for Sheldon because i think webkinz is perfect the way it is and I haven’t really liked recent changes. Just because he doesn’t want to change anything NOW doesn’t mean he won’t change things in the FUTURE. Also we still haven’t heard his interview.
Same here TenesseeFrogs2!:) #It’sAllGood
I am going to vote for Cowabelle. #JoinTheAdventure! But you can vote for whoever does what you want best sportsgirl1
Dear Podkinz, this whole election thing is very exciting! I hope Cowabelle win :) Because she’s a kid, she knows what us kids want! She also has lived all her life in Kinzville, so she knows it by heart :) many people are worried because they think she is too young, but for a kid she seems pretty mature! and she will have her Mom to help and guide her while she’s mayor :) I hope everyone will Join The Adventure and vote for Cowabelle!!!!!!!!!!!
( I meant to put an S on win) typo!
Dear Podkinz, Thank you so much for doing a episode on the election! I’m voting for Sheldon because he’s keeping everything the same and is bringing no bad changes. This election has gotten everyone all riled up, but Sheldon just wants to keep it all the same because it is already perfect! If I were mayor I would unlock everything for every player no matter what position, I would make sure on Webkinz Newz that everyone is included and given credit for something they thought of. I guess you can kind of see what my platform would so I would hashtag #EqualityForAll because I want all players to feel like they don’t need to have be in such a high social group (on Webkinz and Webkinz Newz) to feel important and get the credit they deserve! All who like my idea hashtag below with #EqualityForAll
#EqualityForAll :) :) :)
Anna did a pretty awesome job :) and sportsgirl1, if you’re looking for advice on who to vote for I say vote for Cowabelle and Join The Adventure! Shes a kid so she knows what us kids want, and she knows a lot about Freedom and doing what we need and want :) :) :) A few less Spree roles won’t hurt anyone :) When Spree came out we only had 1 Spree role and we still had a super fun time playing anyway :) But whatever u do, DON’T VOTE FOR DAISY DOE! just think about it, Daisy Doe is taking away unhealthy food in the W-shop FOR GOOD! that’s bad because some of those foods are in recipes, our pets love to eat, and our some of our pets favorite treats! Plus, Daisy Doe never said she was adding or doing anything for Kinzville in her speech, just taking away unhealthy treats :( Your choice so no pressure, but I say vote Cowabelle :) and yes changes are fun!!!!!!
hi playnowpuppy, I tried to answer your friend request on webkinz but it said my thing was full. I tried deleting a few people that are NEVER on so I could friend u, so yeah. :D
Yeah, Cowabelle sounds fun. I’m guessing she’ll get in, but I think I’ll still vote for Ms. Cowoline. I just like her a lot and I shouldn’t go according to what’s popular. But hey, nice thoughts, playnowpuppy! You make very good points. :)
Hey sportsgirl1! I’m voting for Tabby and if you look in the comments section of Tabby’s interview, you will see why! Hope this helps!!! Lillia01 #Change Right Meow!
Tabby, is totally cool Lillia01 :) I wouldn’t be heartbroken if she won :) but I’m excited to hear Cowabelle’s speech! I hope that everyone will support Cowabelle and join The Adventure!!!!!!!!!!!
I am voting for tabby von meow to! I already have the cap! #changerightmeow!
Vote Cowabelle #JOIN THE ADVENTURE
YES! JOINTHEADVENTURE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! VOTE COWABELLE FOR MAYOR!!!!!!!!
I’m voting for cowebelle because she was raised in kinz ville.
Yeah Cowabelle knows Kinzville! Vote for Cowabelle!!!!!!!!!!
I like that he wants to leave everything how it is, because everyone wants to remove stuff, but Sheldon is all: sall good, bruhhh!!
me too, if webkinz is going to have a mare they might as well have some changes.
Nice highway Anna!
jkj1004, I’m almost finished with your ninga room :) It’s awesome looking! :D
Thank you so much jkj1004!!
Glad you liked my room! :D have fun finishing it!
Nice highway! GO DOE!
no! JoinTheAdventure! VOTE COWABELLE!
WHAT? :( I thought I had such an original idea. I even didn’t tell you guys in advance what it was going to be so I could invite you over to see… :( I guess I shouldn’t be sad about it. You did a great job Anna. :) Anyway, it’s wasn’t the same as mine….
I made a highway with the mayor signs too prprprprp :) but It wasn’t like Annas and dosn’t sound like yours was either, so no need to be sad :)
I like the ideas about the bed with the change of quilts and the movie and writing contests (I think the ideas were huggiebuggie9 but im not sure). Also congrats on getting in the video NANCYDREW1 and everyone else. Cool room Anna
Thanks! :)
#becreative
Nice ideas huggiebuggy9! I would vote for you too!!!!!!! And Thanks Galaya! -NANCYDREW1
is it pronaunced Ahnna? like from the movie? Ever since frozen came out i pronance it as her name in the movie so DO NOT judge me!
Yeah, nice room Anna! It reminds me of driving down the highway and seeing signs everywhere! :)
Man, I hope you still read this even if its late. Dear Podkinz, one of my favorite webkinz plush memories would be when I got (not 1) but 6 different webkinz on my birthday! I got the midnight monster, cherry blossom bird, caterpillar, aardvark, cotton candy bunny, and love lion. Then I also got 4 different outfits to put on some of my plushes, I got the baseball outfit, tuxedo outfit, cheerleader outfit, and party dress outfit. And when I adopted all of my new pet’s, I got A LOT of kinzcash! Those were some awesome birthday presents, I’m probably never gonna forget that day! :D
wow that has a little of my backyard look but I like the why he of she made it:)
yeah, I have a room like that, I am TOTALLY voting MRS. Cowline
