Off The Game For 40 Days

Hello everybody! I'm back to the blogging world with a drafted post on the explaination on why my name was changed from Hannah to Allison. Sadly I can't post it yet since I wanted to add a video to it.
But anyways, if you haven't heard now from Twitter I am not going to be on Wizard101 for 40 days. Why you asked? Well since I'm a Catholic the Catholic Church entered in the season of Lent on Ash Wednesday. Lent is a time to pray, and give up something that we don't need for Jesus who died on the Cross for our sins.

So I'm giving up Wizard101 for 40 days. But don't worry I'll be back around Holy Thursday or Easter Sunday. So since I'll be offline I've decided to do something to pass time. I'll be on Twitter (of course) and I'm gonna do a 40 day count down starting today! 39 days to go now and I've decided to do daily interviews. So if you want to be interviewed send me a email at AllisonStormy@hotmail.com I will be asking the same questions so make sure you add these questions to the email. :)

Q: Since when have you been playing Wizard101 and how did you find it?
A:

Q:What is your main school and why did you choose it?
A:

Q:What's your favorite world and why?
A:

Q: (This is Mari's question that she asked on RR last night) If you can customize your own pack what would you name it and what would you add in it?
A:

Q: If you had to choose between a salon in the Shopping District (to change your wizard's look) or interactive furniture which one would you pick and why?
A:

Q: Last but not least, what is your favorite part about Wizard101?
A:


So if you want to answer these questions copy and paste this to the email and email me once again at AllisonStormy@Hotmail.com Also if anybody would like to interview me or ask me any questions feel free. That's all for this post! Good night!

Hello!

Hi everybody! I'm back (sort of) to the blogging world. There has been so many things going on while I was gone. Hmm where should I start? Oh! Everybody who said Happy Birthday to me thanks and sorry I didn't reply back. My family came over and it went chaotic.

 Second, I noticed that this new world called Wysteria came out into the test realm. And a rival school? Hmmm.... sadly I'm not a member nor lvl 25 so :P But Marissa and I already planned on getting the uniform robe andrun around the Commons saying that we're nerds xD

  Also as its pretty obvious that House-a-Palooza is out until the 23 and all housing crown items are 50% off. So pretty much everybody will be buy finishing their houses and all that. I'm trying to see if I can fit that bridge into my dorm. Haha.

  And speaking of housing, KI released 2 new houses in the Test Realm maybe like a few days ago? The Sunken Palace and The Wizard's Tower. They're both very nice and hard to choose. But if I had to choose I would pick both. Despite that The Sunken Palace has running water inside I would just blame it on my boyfriend. And The Wizard's Tower is nice to have maybe a few gardens outside and inside a nice cozy reading spots for bookworms. While in the room with the large telescope can be your on private study and the small balcony a nice place to relax from all of those books.

  Tonight Spiral Live had their first episode. It wasn't so bad, it was actually funny. I'm sure everybody in the audience giggled a time or two. After the podcast there was an after party in Blaze's house. There was some little drama but I'll explain that later. The party was pretty fun and the house looked beautiful. Also Steve Spiritcaller ported in for a few minutes and I think he was dog piled while the small drama happened.

Now I wil explain something to you. Everybody knows that you need to be careful what you put online. Especially on Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, and Skype. The only reason why I am mentioning this is because something happened that might have broke a law or two. I am not going to say names since I was not involve with this but this is a life lesson. This girl posted on Facebook these real life pictures of somebody who didn't want her to post it. Everybody called the boy fat, including the girl who posted the pictures. Then the girl told the boy to go kill himself.

 I must say that that is crossing the line. I am not sure if that's illegal, but I'm pretty sure cyberbullying like that is. Then these two girls started to defend him and the girl sent out her friends to spy on them. Or so what I heard. After that the girl and her two friends said that they're done with him. Yes they're done with their fun but they don't know how much the scarred that boy. And they did this over revenge, and we all know that revenge and violence is never the answer. So I am hoping that all of you who are reading this won't follow into this girl's shoes. Also the people who were defending the boy called the girl to curse her out.

  Honestly, I don't understand why people on Facebook would give out their numbers. It's very stupid in the first place. So here's an important lesson in life, never get revenge on somebody by crossing the line and telling them to go kill themselves. Never give out your number online and never curse out an online stranger through the phone. All of the cyberbullies say that they have better things to do irl. If they have better things then they shouldn't be crossing the line and scarring somebody over the internet. And these people who did that are probably older than me and I have better sense than them.

 So like I said, I hope that none of my readers will follow into the path these bullies did. Ok, now I'm moving into the last subject of this post. Marissa and I have decided to create a blog where we both share. It's called The Girls of the Spiral. Marissa made this in the beginning of the summer, and this entire time it has been sitting there collecting dust. So we both decided to update the header and start posting! If you want to check it out or automatically follow click here -> www.TheGirlsoftheSpiral.blogspot.com/ I'll see you around the Spiral and on Twitter. Bye!

Sorry guys!

Hi everybody! Sorry i haven't blogged for a while. I've been busy with sports and studying. Anyways all i can tell you is that TR is out. Wintertusk is out and Crab Alley is back :D. The only downer is this time its for members :(.. Wintertusk from what i heard is a new part of GH and the enemies captured Grandma Raven and frozen all the GH allies. If you don't act now they will freeze everything and everyone. Wow, those monsters must be really mad.  While most wizards are busy with Wintertusk others are handling with Crab Alley and how the crabs return turned into a huge mess. Like literally a huge mess, Marissa told me that there's a crack in the middle of a street. I hope they clean it up! Also new mounts came in, which are rams.Lol, furry, fluffy rams running around. Also they added the new wand stitching feature. I can finally stitch a DS sword with a lvl 5 stats. :D All I just need now is crowns. Also rumoring on the sidewalks of Ravenwood that there's a mystery composer. I got disappointed when i read that it isn't JB :( (Big JB fan, very guilty ) Also the new show Ravenwood High will up this summer, I don't want to spoil anything before the show starts. Sorry guys, all I can say that I heard that Marissa asked Steve if he can guest star in an episode, and maybe some more famous bloggers :). Thats all I can say. Also speaking of Marissa if you think she should make her own podcast then comment on her post :) http://lifeofmarissapetal.blogspot.com/2011/05/wanting-to-podcast-for-months-i.html?showComment=1304389011341#c3006700247741001780
That's all the news I can give during my dissappearance. See you around in Ravenwood! Bye! :)

Twizard!

Hello everybody! It's been a long time since I blogged huh? Well I'll keep you guys up-to-date :). Well first of all reasons for my diappearance. I had sports and chores and schools. Second, I was on a couple of times because I join Marissa's new clan and new show called Ravenwood High. Also now I'm a Twizrd! Also sub to ravenwood High before the first episode comes out! :)
www.youtube.com/user/RavenwoodHigh   and my Twitter www.twitter.com/HannahStormy

Okay well everybody is excited about the new world, Grandma Raven, and the new hybrid pets.
For starters the new world is called Wintertusk, I bet most of you have heard it by Facebook or Ravenwood Radio. Second, Grandma Raven might be a boss or an aly. I don't know yet all I know that they were talking about it on Ravenwood Radio. And the new hybrid pets called Egg Pet and Nightmare. The Egg Pet are so adorable, it looks like an egg hatching with the little duck feet on the bottom. LOL Marissa is nuts for that pet. The Egg Pet's parents are Collossus and a rgular Dragon. They take 5 minutes to hatch and I must warn you. If you have an Egg Pet and don;t want it to be hugged to death. I suggest you don;t take it out in front of Marissy. And the Nightmare is pretty cool. Its like a little horse with a firey mane. Its parents are the Helephant and Unicorn. It also takes 5 minutes to hatch so waiting won;t be a problem. each hatch costs like 18,000 for the Egg Pet and 17,990 or something like that for the Nightmare. Also follow Marissa's new blog www.LifeOfMarissaPetal.blogspot.com/ Its a great site with music and the homepage picture is beautiful. I'll see you around in class bye! :)

Updates Have Arrived!

Gardening comes to the Spiral

Hello everyone! Professor Moolinda Wu here and I'm excited to tell you all about a new feature in the Spiral: Gardening! To get started on your path to a greener thumb, come visit me in my classroom in Ravenwood if you are level 12 or higher.

Students at Ravenwood can plant and grow amazing plants in their Dorms and Castles! Wizards of all schools can garden, so my hope is that every student will learn the joy of shepherding new life!

A plant's journey of life begins as a seed. There are many types of seeds, each with a different destiny. With enough energy, you can prepare soil of your choice in your Castle (if you have one) or a planter in your dorm. Then you can place the seed into the readied soil. After a time, it will begin to grow. You can shepherd its growth through spells and other means of caring for it, creating an environment for it to thrive.

After you've planted your seed, it starts to grow, from seed to seedling, young plant, mature plant to elder. You can use a number of helpful spells to usher it along as it grows, keeping it healthy and happy. Once you have planted a seedling, either in a plot or in a pot, it cannot be moved.
This is a seedling, the youngest phase of life for a plant. You will need Energy to plant a seed in a planter or the ground. After a seed is planted, you can use plant growth spells on it to help it flourish. Plants require some things to thrive and survive: water, sunshine, pollination, magic and even music.
This is a young plant, in its next stage of life after seedling. You can observe your plant's growth visually and by using some simple spells: The Inspect spell provides you with information about your plant's health and needs. The Plow spell allows you to remove a plant or dirt pile, if you wish to do so. The Revive spell allows you to transform a dead plant into a new seedling, ready to grow once more.


This is a mature plant, in the fullness of its growth. When a plant becomes mature, it can be harvested. You can harvest a plant by interacting with it. Each type of plant yields a different harvest: reagents, pet snacks, gold, treasure cards, or more seeds! You can harvest from a plant as long as it's in its mature stage of life. When a plant is in its mature stage that doesn’t mean that you can harvest it right away or that it’s continually harvestable. It means that once every day or so it will be harvestable so long as it’s in that mature state.

This is an elder plant, the final stage of a plant's life cycle. Many plants won't reach this stage! An elder plant can be harvested one final time, with much greater possible rewards. Once an elder plant is harvested, it disappears and cannot be revived.

I'm sad to say that gardening isn't all nurturing and happiness. Plants can be endangered by some very real threats.

This plant is wilting. It will die before too long if it is not taken care of. Plants can die if their needs are not met, if they are in surrounded by things they dislike, or if they are killed by pests. Plants have likes and dislikes, things that encourage or discourage their growth. A plant's likes are things it enjoyes being near. These can include other types of plants or gardening items. A plant will flourish if it is near things that it likes, while things it dislikes will cause it to become unhealthy. An important part of gardening is learning how to arrange your plants, and create a healthy garden for them.

This plant is dead. Now all that can be done is to plow it over, or to revive it. The greatest threat to plants are pests. Pests can infest a plant and hinder its growth. If pests are not eliminated, eventually the plant will begin to wilt and die. When a plant is infested by pests, it cannot be harvested. To eliminate pests, you must use pest fighting spells. To eliminate a pest, the spell must be of high enough rank. You can purchase pest fighting spells from vendors throughout the Spiral, or even win them as treasures. It's a sorry state to see plants doing so poorly, but it's important to know what risks there are when gardening.

How do I Garden?

Where do I get Seeds?
You can get seeds from gardening vendors throughout the Spiral. Farley is the gardening vendor in Wizard City's Golem Court, look for his cousins Marley, Charley and Harley in other worlds. You can also earn seeds as rewards through defeating enemies in magic duels, or get them in other ways.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


How do I Plant?
When you're ready to plant a seed in prepared soil or a planter, you must cast a seed planting spell. This places the chosen seed into the soil or planter, where it can begin to grow. To prepare an area for planting outdoors in your Castle, you must cast a soil preparation spell. Soil preparation spells cost Energy. To garden in your dorm room or an indoor space in your Castle, you must buy a planter from the gardening vendor. There are different sizes and types of plants, but some types of plants cannot be planted indoors.

Plants require attention to grow in the form of plant growing spells. All plants have needs that must be met, and plant growing spells fulfill those needs for a period of time. Plants needs include water, sunlight, pollination, music and magic. Plant growing spells cost Energy to cast, and are cast through the garden interface in your home.

Plants have likes & dislikes, conditions that can help them grow or hinder their development. A plant will grow faster if it is surrouned by things it likes, and it will grow slower if it is surrounded by things it dislikes. You can learn what a plant likes or dislikes by using the Inspect spell on it.
Plants go through several stages as they grow, from seed to seedling to young plant to mature plant to elder plant. Once a plant is mature, you can harvest it by interacting with it. A plant can be harvested repeatedly until it reaches the elder stage. Harvesting yields rewards such as reagents, pet snacks, gold, treasure cards or other seeds. When a plant reaches the elder stage, it can be harvested only one more time. This harvest will yield the greatest rewards. After this, the elder plant will disappear.

Gardening Tools
Utility spells are useful for many aspects of gardening. The plow spell removes a targeted plant or dirt pile. The Inspect spell lets you look at a targeted plant's characteristics and progress. The Revive spell lets you turn a plant that has died into a young plant of the same type.

Pests
Plants can sometimes suffer from pests. Pests are annoying critters that will cause it to wilt and die if they are not dealt with. To get rid of pests, you will need to cast the appropriate pest fighting spell. Different types of pests require different types of spells. Pests are ranked and require spells equal to or greater than their rank.


If you have a high enough gardening rank, you can cast pest prevention spells to keep pests away from your garden. You can buy pest fighting and pest prevention spells from certain trainers throughout the Spiral, you can buy them at the Crown shop or you can earn them through treasure rewards. Each plant differs by how easy they are to garden, how long they take to grow and mature and how long they live.

As you continue to garden you will earn gardening experience through successfully harvesting plants. There are 10 ranks of gardening:


Novice


Neophyte


Apprentice


Initiate


Intermediate


Journeyman


Expert


Adept


Master


Grandmaster

The types of seeds you can plant may be restricted, requiring a minimum gardening rank. Additionally, some kinds of gardening equipment and spells require minimum gardening rank to use.
