*Our technical wizards would also like everyone to know that we have fixed the issue with Pet Medallions, so you are now free to use any completed collections to adopt your medallion pets!
I hope everyone found this helpful. Stay tuned to Webkinz Newz for all the latest updates about how we’re making Webkinz World the best it can be!
Sincerely,
Mayor of Kinzville
This is a really nice lineup for February. Thanks for the awesome Igloo Bed, my favorite deluxe gift of 2019 so far! The Heart Circlet is adorable & I love the Crown Me Pedestal (I’m a checkers fan), the Sweet Stained Glass Window (just lovely) and the Sweetheart Shower. I’m especially grateful for the Collection Event. Great job, Ganz!
I’m really going to have to get used to these new update announcements, because my brain is confused now that not everything they put Sophie’s picture on is some eStore announcement I generally skip over. (Not that I don’t shop at the eStore, I just don’t read every “Sophie’s Favorites” ad they throw at us.) Also, I have to say now, thinking about Sophie being mayor from a real-life perspective, her whole campaign was sort of ethically questionable seeing as it was basically all about bribing us with free stuff, hahaha. :P
IKR? It’s all Sophie, all the time now. I used to read her advertising pieces, but now it’s just too much.
I wish they would bring back the fun TV shows they used to do. I loved the Monkey and Monkey show!
Chef Gazpacho! Mama mia!
so does the below part mean that my redeemed pet {snow puppy} will show a year as other pets do or is that still a bogus thing, because my pet redemption of THAT ‘free’ pet did NOT show as renewing the account! The ‘free’ pet that took me a month of logging in, that got ganz advertising dollars because could NOT turn off block did NOT get me a year pet, just another pet, much like hamsters do NOT add to the time on an account either and now also no maze with those activities
*Our technical wizards would also like everyone to know that we have fixed the issue with Pet Medallions, so you are now free to use any completed collections to adopt your medallion pets!
Sincerely,
Mayor Sophie Stockwell
As explained in the original announcement (https://webkinznewz.ganzworld.com/announcements/introducing-a-brand-new-way-to-adopt-webkinz-pets-for-free/):
“Are Pets adopted using Medallions the same as regular Webkinz Pets?
Just like any Webkinz pet, a Medallion pet comes with its own Pet-Specific Item and Pet-Specific Food, and it behaves like any other pet in Webkinz World. It makes Pet Requests and has Happiness, Hunger, and Energy meters that need to be filled to help increase your Family Score. The only difference is that pets purchased using Medallions do not extend your Full Membership.”
No Medallion pets will extend Memberships.
*grooaaaannnn* cheeeckerrrssss >.<
Yesss, awesome update!!!!! Will the invite friends to your home button work soon? I’ve been waiting for years, I LOVED it when I was little, so many memories!
I need help. I accidentally bought an item called “reuse” twice and I can’t sell it or do anything with it. I lost 400 Kinzcash from buying it and this is on an account with very little Kinzcash to begin with :(
I’m sorry to hear that. If you send me a friend request I can send you some kinzcash coins to replace it. My username is shortordercook. :)
Yes I wish they wouldn’t make you keep those items. I think you should be able to sell anything you want to. Especially the items they give you that you cant get rid of.
Aww! :( How did that even happen; was it a glitch? What does “reuse” even look like?
My user name is ca1vin. Friend me and I will send you some kinzcash coins!
Hi, Webkinzwonders! Hmm, where did you buy the item from? Was it called “reuse”? I’m sorry, I don’t quite understand. Please try contacting webkinzsupport@ganz.com in an e-mail. That must be a glitch.
If you want to add me on WW I’m 09xStarlightx09. I can send you stuff that you can sell to get the 400KC back.
Last night I was on the Mobile app, in the Mobile Zone on the Wshop, browsing thru. I came upon a blank square for 200 kc. I clicked on it to see what it was. It said Reuse. I cancelled. What is that? and why is it even in the Wshop??? I would think that should be removed!
Webkinzwonders, Friend me & I’ll help you.
Habibi24, missquackerstein, dinosaurtracker13, ferretfuzzbut, MyLittlePony2010EG13, gml1939, gramkins, “reuse” was sold in the W-Shop and it was next to all of the new Winter clothes. The item is no longer in the WShop but still in my dock. Can I send all of you friend requests?
Sure, you can still friend me! =) That’s weird. Must’ve been a technical issue. Somebody else had that problem, too.
Sure you can still friend me. My Webkinz username is shortordercook.
The Golden Dalmation is cute, but is it just me, or would “Swiss Cheese Puppy” have been a more fitting name? Hmmm. The igloo is really cool…um, pun not intended…and so is the checkers trophy, although I’m probably gonna be missing out on the latter because the game seems to glitch a lot (it gives players extra turns sometimes, a certain piece will get stuck in place, etc.) which is too bad because it used to be my favorite in the Arena.
BEST NAME EVER!!!!!
Swiss Cheese Puppy is a good name for it xD
I am really excited for the next trophy challenge. Playing checkers is my favorite game. I love the Crown me Trophy Pedestal and the Checkers Trophy. February is going to be a great month, I can’t wait. The prizes to be won are Fantastic. I am so happy to see there will be the Valentine Collection Event, the shower is awesome. I really missed not be able to collect candy canes in December.
Yay!!!
I’m especially pumped for Cinnamon, the Valentine’s Day party packs, Golden Dalmatian, and everything else!! =D LAst year they didn’t have the VD party packs.
If you’re looking for new friends to invite to your party, I’m probably available that day lol!! Seriously though IndigoZap, I’m Aleskar in WW if you want to send me a request… I’m always looking to make new friends in the game!
Hi there! LOL okay, I’ll invite you if I have one. XD Sure! I’ll send it soon! XD Do you use plus or the original chat? I have plus on one account, but Starlight doesn’t have plus. I’m 09xStarlightx09. (I’m IndigoZap, btw)
