    I noticed the loading magic w from the bottom left corner of the play area got replaced with the Please Wait message that used to appear in the old version alot. Good work on the rest of the updates:)

  5. NMKID4527 says:

    Yay! I did have that one problem in the arcade. I’m so glad it’s fixed! Looking forward to all the events coming up! Thank you Ganz!

  6. xmy9tailxkinz says:

    Wow. I have always LOVED mazin’ hamsters.

    • NMKID4527 says:

      Yeah I’ll miss it too but I’m glad that they gave us a heads-up. Even though I never went on it before it closed (because I forgot) it was still nice of them to let us know instead of saying, “Surprise! Mazin’ Hamsters is closing tomorrow!” I’m really thankful for that but we just have to accept the change and move on. I’m sure they will release more fun games too. Come to think of itp, they haven’t released a new arcade game in a long time! Maybe they’ll do that soon. Anyway, it was fun while it lasted.

        • tinygma says:

          Hi my friend oats34WK I have to say I did it ALMOST all. I did adopt 2 and fed pets. Of course you deserve it. It’s that sometimes we have a life and it gets in our way. Thats why its a SHARED CHALLENGE ;) . Next time maybe you will have more time thats all. I don’t know how to get puter to share photos. We all have something. I do 11 and start with the acorns and wheel of wow on all. Later <3 care on 1 account and go to the next till done. MY account takes at least 2 hours on <3 care alone. feeding a bananna or pumpkin adds 1000 points each day . I don't always have time . Husbands been sick lately he hasn't been right since his 2d heart surgery . But he's a good man and I love him . Get a system here your happy with . Midnight do acorns and wheel of wow rest do tomarrow it makes life easier. Good luck my dear friend . If you miss something oh well life happens. GLDF

    • ArtMagician says:

      Yay for the fixes! Thanks Ganz! Oh yeah and Cowabelle didn’t mention that she would be duplicating herself at the time she was in the Park. ._.

    • _emiemiemiemiemi_ says:

      Oh, oats! Of course you deserve it! I didn’t hardly do a thing myself, to be honest. I just fed a few bananas and ice creams here and there. I played the games probably 1 or 2, maybe 3 times. That’s all you would need to do, because everyone does a little and it all adds up! Even if you didn’t help, it’s perfectly fine. I didn’t adopt a pet either, and I didn’t work on filling meters. You’re a member of my favorite webkinz friends, don’t bum yourself out, oats, you are awesome! (Thank you for that flower crown! :3 I haven’t had one in a long time and have wanted one! <3 Thank you, you are such a wonderful, giving person.) And anyway, if you are given something, keep it! It is rightly yours.

    • ImaPepper says:

      Oats, you’re way too hard on yourself. You’re a member of the Webkinz community, and a great friend. You deserve it at least as much as anyone else!

    • KCKares says:

      What??!! Oats, you are the one of the greatest people on the planet!! Don’t you dare feel bad if you weren’t able to contribute during the Days of Play! Not everyone was able to- the great thing about it was that each prize was earned as a community, so if some people weren’t able to do one thing, other friends helped out. And you absolutely DO deserve the prizes, because you are one of the first people in the webkinz community to help others- you do it in different ways, but you do it every day! ♥ (I also don’t believe anyone in their right mind expected you to adopt 30,000 pets :P!) I’m sure you hardly have enough money for bananas because you spend money sending really sweet notes to your friends! I think every one of us would agree that you most definitely deserve any and every special prize or gift that comes your way (and more!) I haven’t been here as much lately but I’m glad I caught your post so I can tell you for once you’re wrong C; I’m sure by the time this posts, it will be there along with enough others that it’s going to start looking like a petition (if not, it’s only because your other friends just didn’t see it!) Lots of Hugs -30,000 or so!- from your friend KCKisses ♥ **sending you some ice cream, promise to share? :P ♥ C[> C[> C[> C[>
