question,since there is wishing well two what was wishing well one like?
Gennelle listed the games you can have in your room, but she said you can have the wheel of WOW in your room too. How do I get the wheel of WOW in my room??? :(
i was so exited when i got my first non mazin hamster trophy it was for go go googles!
My question for the creative director would be “Did you ever think Webkinz would become so popular, you know like how people of all ages play it, not just kids?” Also “what is his favorite Webkinz?”
hi carl! i have always wondered how you come up with all the different pets, items, and clothes in the first place! you must have to have 1,000 people working on it or how could you come up with such amazing things!
Dear Gennelle and Mike, when I click the icon that shows you all of your pets by the health, hunger, and happiness meter, it says “Automatic deluxe membership renewal active”. What on earth does that mean?
Hey Mike, Gennelle, and Carl! I started Webkinz late 2007 and I was wondering… Who was the first Webkinz host introduced to Webkinz World? Also, In the previous episode you mentioned a game called Leaf Leaf. What was it like? What was the goal of the game? How did you meet that Goal?
Hey Gennelle and Mike, I am not sure if you already did this in a pod cast, but could you do the Webkinz Stadium please?
Why do newly adopted webkinz have a health and hunger meter of 75 percent?
I have a question you mentioned a game called leaf leaf I looked it up and could not find anything can I have some more information? how did you play?
It was a game that was only in the arcade for 2 months before being removed. It’s not accessible anymore. :(
