Day of the Dead

Hey Pandas!

Today is Day of the Dead. Day of the Dead is a time in celebration in honor and remembrance of friends and family members who have died. To help celebrate Day of the Dead, Pandanda added a free gift in the Clothing Co. located on East Market Street!

Here is what the free gift looks like:

Tomorrow is the last day of Day of the Dead. So hurry up and get this cool free gift before it is too late! The gift will still be in the catalog until Day of the Dead is over.

Costume Day Thursday!

Hey Pandas!

Tomorrow is Costume Day in Pandanda! For more information about Costume Day, check out Henry's post below!

Thursday is Costume Day in Pandanda! Halloween is creeping closer and closer, so come celebrate the season and show off your favorite Pandanda costume!

I have seen some really interesting and creative costumes during the Pumpkin Festival, where pandas have taken parts of different costumes, and mixed and matched them in cool and unique ways. If you think you have a really awesome costume, send me a picture of your player card so I can check it out. You can send your pictures to screenshots@pandanda.com.

You've still got one week of Pumpkin Fest left to collect Halloween candy to trade for the items in the Cauldron of Prizes. That should be plenty of time to get all of the prizes that you want! And next week you have a chance to get 2 special gifts - one on Halloween Day and one for the two-day Day of the Dead celebration! I'll tell you more about those days soon!

Have a spooky day!

Pandanda's 2nd Aniversary!

Hey Pandas! Tomorrow is PD'S 2nd anniversary! I'm so exited for tomorrow looking forward for the new age of Pandanda. It makes me happy to remember all the Pandanda memories from last year and the 2nd year of Pandanda.

This is what Henry said about Pandanda's 2nd Anniversary...

2 years! Can you believe it?

Make sure to visit Pandanda tomorrow, October 24th, to help us celebrate Pandanda's 2 Year Launch Anniversary. Pandanda ended our beta testing period on October 23rd, 2009 and launched our great site for everyone to experience on Launch Day, October 24th, 2009!
It has been a fun two years, and I am looking forward to having even MORE fun in Year 3! Do you remember some of the new things in Year 2? The Official Pandanda Blogroll was started in Pandanda's 2nd year, recognizing many of the incredible blogs about Pandanda that you all have created and maintain. I also moved and improved my Blog, adding links to photo albums of pictures that you sent in.

Questy Greybeard arrived in Pandanda Land with a catalog of Quest rewards for sale, as Questers reached higher and higher Levels. At Level 50, Questers were able to summon their very own Dragon Companions in a challenging series of Quests. Lower level Questers were also able to buy Pony and Horse Companions.

The Panda Gold program started this year, giving you new ways to get Elite memberships by buying or earning Panda Gold. Mods can also award Panda Gold in Pandanda during special games of Bunny Chase and Ghosts of Misty Hill.

Wow, I got so wrapped up in remembering the cool stuff that happened during Pandanda's 2nd year that I almost forgot to tell you...I am going to be paying some visits to Pandanda tomorrow during the 2nd Anniversary Celebration! I will visit at 2am Pandanda Time, 9am Pandanda Time, 3pm Pandanda Time, and 8pm Pandanda Time. You can click the links for each of those times to see what time it will be where you live.

If you've got a Launch shirt from way back on October 24, 2009, tomorrow would be a great day to wear it! I look forward to seeing all my Panda Pals tomorrow!

Party on, Pandas!
Henry

I'm ready to wear my Launch shirt for tomorrow, and beta shirt, too! Tommorrow will be a great day for everyone to hang out and celebrate and have parties! Tomorrow is a very important day for Pandanda!

Here we come, 2rd year!

Ghost Potion Day Tomorrow!

Hey Pandas! Tomorrow is Ghost Potion Day on Pandanda! Buy Ghost Potions from Paige at Bear Hollow and hunt around. Here's What Henry Said About Ghost Potion Day:

Happy Monday, everyone! The Pumpkin Festival has really gotten off to an awesome start! I hope you were able to spend some time in Pandanda over the weekend, collecting Halloween candy to trade for cool things from the Cauldron of Prizes.

Don't forget to check out the new items in Fitch's catalog at the Clothing Co. on East Market Street. You'll find some brand new things, as well as some old favorites in new colors. I've been really impressed at some of the outfits you fashionable pandas come up with. You really know how to mix and match, and accessorize!

Make sure to stock up your backpack with Paige's Haunted Potions today, because tomorrow is Ghost Potion Day! I challenge you to keep yourself a ghost the whole time you are in Pandanda tomorrow! The Haunted Potion is just 15 coins.

You can earn coins by selling the fish you catch to Fishy Joe, by selling fruits and veggies to Tammy or Farmer Dan, selling gems and coal to Jim. You can also earn coins by playing the mini games, Bunny Chase, and Ghosts of Misty Hill. I've heard that if you are good at Dragon's Revenge and Dragon's Treasure, you can really earn a bunch of coins in a short time!

Happy Hunting (for Halloween Candy!)
Henry

I can't wait to hunt around! Oh, and do you like the new cursor of the blog? Comment! :D

Pumpkin Festival is here!

Hey Pandas!

Woohoo! Pandanda 2nd annual Pumpkin Festival is finally here! The Pumpkin Festival is where you collect Halloween Candies all over Pandanda (except from Treehouses), and trade them for spooky and exciting prizes!

When you log onto Pandanda, you will notice that our bubble chat has an orange text and a black bubble to match the Halloween theme!

Lets get started about the Pumpkin Festival! Click on the Pumpkin Basket (it's located on the right-hand corner of your screen). You can also keep track of how many pieces of candies you collected by looking at your Halloween Basket.

Halloween Candies can appear anywhere throughout Pandanda (except Treehouses). It's just like how we collected tickets for Zing Ballyhoo, Fruits, Cans, etc. The Halloween Candies can appear in different kinds of candies for example a pumpkin!

A great way to collect candies faster are locations such as The Ice Cream Parlor, Farmer Ned's Barn, The Clothing Co., The Purple Door, etc. Pretty much places where nothing but candies can pop up. 

After finding at least 25 pieces of Halloween Candies, you can trade in your candies for awesome Halloween prizes! Just head towards West Market Street and click on the Cauldron!

There are lots of Halloween prizes for you to pick from the Cauldron! And here are the prizes of the Pumpkin Festival 2011!

 

To get all the prizes, you have to get at least 300 pieces of candies! But don't worry, you will have about 3 weeks to get the chance to get all the prizes!

Also, during the Pumpkin Festival you can buy Ghost Potions! To get the Ghost Potions, head toward Bear Hollow and click on Paige!

Hope you guys have an awesome Halloween this year! What do you guys think about this year's Halloween prizes? Make sure to stop by the Clothing Co. located at East Market Street for Halloween outfits and costumes! And visit Farmer Ned to buy some pumpkins!

Pumpkin Festival Coming tomorrow!

Hey pandas! I'm so so so excited for the Pumpkin Festival tommorrow! Can't wait to trade candy for prizes and listen to the scary music and wear halloween costumes and... more!!! Check out Henry's post:

It's almost time! Almost time for the residents of Pandanda to decorate with pumpkins and jack-o'-lanterns, and to play spooky music. Almost time for the ghosts to leave Misty Hill and float all around the island. And almost time to hunt for Halloween candy scattered all over Pandanda Land and to collect it in your pumpkin basket, then trade it at the Cauldron of Prizes for really cool stuff!

Yes, the Pumpkin Festival begins tomorrow, and I am so excited! This is one of my favorite festivals! In addition to the awesome decorations, music and prizes, there will be some extra Quests. You'll also be able to shop for Halloween costumes from the Clothing Co on East Market Street.

I think you will really like what the Cauldron of Prizes has to trade for the candy you collect! Nope, I'm not giving you any hints! Everything will be revealed tomorrow! You'll have almost 3 whole weeks to collect enough candy to get all of the prizes. The Pumpkin Festival will end on November 3rd.

There are some other fun events coming up soon. Tuesday the 18th is Ghost Potion Day, and Thursday the 27th is Costume Day. Both of those events have been added to the Pandanda Calendar, so check them out!

Prepare for the Festival!
Henry

I'm so ready for tomorrow! Also, there's a new Poll at Henry's blog so check it out!
What do yall think about the Pumpkin Festival? Well I can't wait no more!

Orange as a Pumpkin in Pandanda!

Hey Pandas!

Tomorrow is Orange Color Day! Here's a post from Henry telling you guys all about it!

Ooooh, I am really starting to get excited about October! This is one of my most favorite times of the year! I love the cooler weather, and the leaves on the trees turning to beautiful colors of red, yellow and ORANGE. It seems everywhere I look, ORANGE pumpkins are starting to appear, some even already carved up as jack-o-lanterns.

The Pumpkin Festival will begin on Friday, with lots of Halloween candy around Pandanda land for you to collect and trade for cool Pumpkin Festival prizes. To help us get into the spirit for the festival, let's celebrate tomorrow with the 2nd Annual ORANGE PANDA DAY!

I want to see everyone dressed in ORANGE tomorrow! There is orange Panda Paint in the clothing catalog at the Clothing Co. on East Market Street that everyone can buy. It's just 50 coins! So make your Panda orange, then pile on anything else you have in your closet that is orange. Make the pumpkins jealous of your glowing ORANGE color!

 I will be making some surprise visits to Pandanda tomorrow to see all of the ORANGE. You can also send me pictures of you and your friends having fun on ORANGE DAY. If you take a bunch of pictures, choose just one, or make a collage of photos into one image, then send it to me at screenshots@pandanda.com, with ORANGE DAY in the subject line. Make sure to include your panda name in your email. I'll post some here on my blog, and put them all into a Facebook album.

Orange you glad it's October?
Henry 

Remember to wear LOTS of Orange! Such as orange paint, orange accessories, and etc. If you take any photos on Orange Color Day, remember to choose one of your best photos OR make all the photos in to a collage! Then send that one picture that you chose at screenshots@pandanda.com with ORANGE DAY in the subject line. And remember to include your panda name in the email! Henry will pop up on Pandanda tomorrow, so watch out for Henry! Enjoy Orange Color Day!
