Sneak Peek: Thanksgiving Community Challenge!

 

It’s the time of year to be thankful for the harvest! This year we wanted to show our thanks to YOU with a special community challenge from November 20 to 27. Harvest crops, sell them at the market, and bake up a special new recipe to earn a SPUD-tacular new prize!

Thanksgiving Community Challenge
A community challenge is one where the whole Webkinz community works together to reach a goal! If you participate, and if the community reaches the goal, you can claim this beautiful Thanksgiving window to place in your pet’s home!
Here’s how it works:

 

 

 

Look for the challenge icon on the left side of your screen between November 20 and 27. Click on it to see your tasks.

 

Participate in the challenge. You don’t have to participate in all parts of the challenge – any participation in any part of the challenge will make you eligible to claim the prize. But remember, the more players who do the tasks the better your chances of reaching the goal!

 

 


You’re going to need to harvest 1,000 crops from your Farmer’s Plot as a community, and sell 200,000 crops to Farmer Will! That’s where the spuds come in! Cook up 2,000 Scalloped Potatoes from a new recipe that unlocks with the challange.

 

 

 

The Scalloped Potato recipe is only available during this challenge so be sure to make lots!

 

If you reach the goal, you can claim this beautiful Thanksgiving window.

 

 

 

And that’s it! Remember, the more you participate, the better the chances for everyone to win! This Thanksgiving, let’s all reap the benefits of being part of a wonderful Webkinz community!

 

Tell us, where in your pet’s home would you place this beautiful window?

    Is anyone else having trouble selling crops and buying seeds at the farmer’s market? I have multiple Webkinz Next accounts and they all show that I have already sold 50 crops and purchased 3 packs of seeds every time I go to the market when I haven’t. I first noticed it on one account several months ago but now they have all been that way the past several weeks every time I visit the market. I’ve noticed other daily activities doing the same thing such as the free daily candy in the arcade and the free coffee at the cafe. It looks like I already colllected them each day but I didn’t. Can anybody help?

    Love the community challenges! Just wish you would fix the Week 1 problem. I got an “A” twice this week doong a hard class and still am not getting the 40 points. Is anyone else having the same problem?

    • KarenaJ says:

      I am! I didn’t get my credit for earning an A in a hard class. Also, my pet Cow Amy is stuck beside her bed and can’t move. I can select her for play, but she isn’t able to moove! Help!!

    Would you guys consider making a more in-depth tutorial on Next’s version of Wacky Zingoz? The results I get from my swings don’t have a consistent result and I’m really frustrated. I had no problems learning the timings of the Classic Wacky, but the Next version seems to pop out completely random results, and I’d really like to be able to complete the Season task for 10,000 points. I can’t tell the difference in what I did between longer hits and the duds.

    Is this only for Next?

    I have a room in my lakeside cottage that is classic villa themed. If the webkinz community reaches the goal, that’s where I’ll put it! I think it’s really nice

    I have a couple of Next questions: do the creators plan to eventually have us be able to send items to friends in Next? Did you do a tutorial/newz post on Skill cards, as there seems to be some confusion about them? Could you have the tech wizards add a countdown clock in the KVA showing when we can take our next classes again? It seems like we can only take classes once every 24 hours rather than once per calendar day, and as players can’t always get on the computer at the same time every day, it would be nice to know how much time is left until your next class so you can try really hard to log back in. I have been missing credit for classes on the challenge because I get locked out. Could this just be a problem between accounts? For example, when I log out of one account where I just took KVA classes, and log into another without fully quitting the game and reopening it, does the game think that my classes are already done on each subsequent account? I would appreciate it if any staff member who sees this could clear up my questions. If no one sees it, maybe I will send them to Michael and Mandy so that they might address them on a future Podkinz. Have a great day!

    • Sally Webkinz says:

      There may be a KinzPost option in the future, but it probably won’t work the same as in Classic. We did make a video on skill cards so that will probably be posted soon. Classes reset at midnight — if your class shows it was completed already and it’s a new day, just log out and back in again and it should reset.

    I love the notion of this challenge, but I have to ask…. considering that we can only harvest veggies and stuff from our gardens once, it appears, every day ten days or so, I don’t see how we can all get this done. I’m hoping I’m wrong….

    • ringneck1 says:

      It takes four days for crops to grow. That just means you want to plant onions, peppers and as many potatoes as you can get right now. I know potatoes will be my bottleneck (and probably everyone else’s) since the other ingredients are available in the Wshop. Put your potatoes in your Farmer’s Plot if possible, so you have chances of getting more per harvest. I don’t think they’ll make it so only vegetables you harvest during the challenge will be usable ingredients. But yeah, to really take advantage of this challenge requires some preparation.

    I really like community challenges! I am so excited! I just have one question. Does anyone know about the design a spree prize contest? I was wondering if the winning designs will be posted on here. Thanks!

  9. 975689 says:

    I love community challenges…and scalloped potatoes. Can’t wait to get started.

    Love the prize and love community challenges. Also like that this time it appears in the game so I won’t forget about it. Sometimes I can’t always check Webkinz Newz and miss out on the challenges.
