Quizzy's had Ms. Cowoline spelled wrong today as Ms. Cow-a-line.
A few weeks ago Quizzy also listed Hawaii as a COUNTRY incorrectly when it should have been a STATE.

News directly from Webkinz Creative Director
(in response to some rumors I have been asked about) "I can assure you that you will not be able to move the doors in your rooms anytime soon. We have three very cool room upgrades in the works and that is not included."
(in response to my inquiry for more info about the Stadium) "I'm not going to give out all of the details of the Stadium, but I'll say this: It's for pet competitions. You don't compete. Your pet does. Of course, as any good competitor knows, training is everything – and yes that training happens at the Academy. Your job is to train your pet in the right skills to give them an edge. What are those skills for the Beauty Pageant? Not saying, but I'm sure your readers can have a lively discussion about it."
Finally, he did say that KinzChat Plus will definitely be coming back sometime in the future...

For people having difficulty getting into kinzchat, just go to the clubhouse and your communicator will be activated. Thanks to Denise F. and Kristen for this great info!

I was just reading the Webkinz book titled Plumpy's Great Advice and I realized that the title of chapter ten is "Meet Stoogles!" but the chapter had nothing to do with Stoogles. Chapter ten in the Webkinz book titled the The New Cat In Town is also titled "Meet Stoogles!" but that makes sense because that chapter is about Stoogles. I just thought Webkinz fans might find that interesting.

Message from Webkinz re: Stadium Competitions
It appears that people are excited about the Stadium! Our first event filled instantly. No really, instantly. To the lucky 1000 that got in, the event will run at 7 pm (be there to watch your pet compete) and the results will be ready at 7:30 pm (KinzTime). Everyone else can come at 7 pm to watch as well.
Over the next few days we will be increasing the number of people who can enter each event. Events will likely still fill within a few minutes.
As part of our next site update we will significantly reduce the “wait period” between entry and the competition, and make a few more changes so that we can run larger events, more often, so that everyone can regularly enjoy our new pet competitions.
We’re blown away by the response to this new feature and will be continuing to update the Webkinz Stadium throughout 2008.
Creative Director,
Webkinz

Is your pet friends with testcolour4? Here is what Ganz says, "Our art department has
test pets we use for new pet types (like the recent Tiger Snake). They were never meant for live, and should never show up in the bios. This is a recurring bug that we fix each time we see it. Every so often we do a global search and replace for testcolour4 and put an actual pet in there."

In response to everyone's questions about the Webkinz Scavenger Hunt II, Ganz says that no one got all 8 answers correct since they made it much harder than the first hunt. They are still determining the winners and will post the winners and answers soon.
