Snow in Pandanda!

Hey Pandas! Looks like the Pandanda Weather Forecasters were spot on with their prediction of snow. A light snow has covered almost all of Pandanda Land except the sunny and tropical Coconut Beach. Thanksgiving Week has ended and the Pandanda residents are busily preparing for the Winter Festival which starts December 15th! To help celebrate the holidays, The Pandanda Collection clothes catalog and the House & Tree furniture catalog will both be getting updated this week with seasonal items from holidays past.

In other news, I've recently heard rumor of a new Pandanda resident that should be arriving sometime in December! It's said that he goes by the name Questy Greybeard. Hmmm, I'll keep you posted as I learn more details! 

Ok a new catalog this will be a great opportunity for the members that are around two hundred days old maybe you can get some old stuff that Henry has.

Greybeard why do they call him that?
What do you think he will sell or collect?
Keep in touch for more info.

Holiday Drawing Contest: More Info

Hey everyone!

The Holiday Drawing Contest judging team has started looking at the art you have submitted. There are some really nice drawings coming in! There have been some questions sent in about the contest, as well as some entries that have not followed the rules, so I wanted to answer the questions and remind everyone to read the complete list of rules carefully.

• Your pictures can be about any holiday, but we would really like to see pictures of pandas celebrating the holidays during the months of November and December in Pandanda.
• You can submit as many entries as you like in either or both categories, but you can only win once.
• All contest entries must be 100% drawn by you, whether using your computer mouse or other computer drawing device, or with crayons, pencils, paints, etc. Screenshots or images from Pandanda that have been edited will not be accepted for this contest.
• Put your Pandanda name in your email message so we can know whose art it is!
• Make sure your parents or guardians are sending your drawings from the email address your panda is registered to. The email address your drawing comes from MUST match the email address used to register your Panda, since that is the address the Gift Certificate prize will be sent to if you win.

You might submit the best art we’ve ever seen, but if you haven’t followed all of the contest rules, you won’t be able to win! Don’t let your hard work be disqualified - read and follow the contest rules!

Sheriff Steele Says: Account Security

Hello Pandanda Land citizens! My good friend Henry has asked me to give you all some tips on keeping your Pandanda accounts safe and secure. I know that you spend a lot of time and effort working to earn coins so you can buy clothes and accessories for your panda, furniture and decorations for your tree house, and even those cute dragon pets! You also have rare gifts and prizes that you have collected by attending special events. If you don’t keep your account secure, you are at risk of losing your things. That would be horrible!! What can you do to keep this from happening?

First, make sure you have a strong password. Then, keep that password completely private. Don’t tell it to anyone for any reason. Don’t tell it to your best friend, don’t tell it to your brother or sister, don’t tell it to the panda who says they will buy you a membership or give you coins or do Quests for you. Once someone knows your password, they can go on your account and do anything they want - even sell all of your things and get your account permanently banned. Whatever happens, it is your responsibility. Pandanda cannot give you your things back.

What makes a strong password?

• When you make a password, it should be completely different from any other password you use.
• A password should not be a word that can be found in a dictionary.
• A strong password contains at least six characters - more is better.
• It should contain a mix of numbers and capital and lowercase letters, and should be something someone who knows you couldn't guess.
• Never use any part of your real name, Pandanda name, or email address in your password.

If you think someone else knows your password, you should change it immediately by using the "Change my password” link on the login page.

Pandanda has many security measures in place to protect your account, but it is up to each of you to keep your account password private and hard to guess. Keep your Pandanda experience happy and fun by keeping your account information private. Remember, your account is your responsibility!

Play safe, be safe!

Sheriff Steele

Pandas this is very important if your password is changed now you'll have a better chance from not being hacked

Zing Ballyhoo is headed back to Pandanda Land! He'll be arriving with fabulous prizes in his giant gold suitcases Sunday at midnight Pandanda Time.

Zing will be placing tickets all over Pandanda for you to collect and exchange for his prizes. Starting Monday, you can find tickets on the ground in every location, except your tree house. Whether you're wandering around or just hanging out with your friends, you'll notice tickets appearing on the ground. Just be sure to grab them before they disappear! Once you've collected 10 tickets, go visit Zing in the Treehouse Lobby to trade them for a prize!

He's already set up his tent in the Treehouse Lobby and rumor has it he's busily sorting and arranging his prizes. I can't wait to see what wonderful prizes he has in store for us this time!

Questers Reach Level 20! Wow!

Hey Pandas! Yesterday was another milestone for Pandanda Quests. Let’s give three cheers for Blowsight10 for being the very first Panda to reach Level 20! That is quite an accomplishment. You might remember that Blowsight10 was also the first Panda to reach Level 10. Wow! Blowsight10 wasn’t the only Panda to reach Level 20 on Monday, though. These dedicated Pandas also made it to this impressive milestone. Make sure to congratulate them all for their hard work!

Celebrate and Remember!

Hey everyone!

Halloween Pandanda-style was so much fun! You all looked great in your Halloween tee shirts - I hope it wasn’t too hard to find. I really enjoyed hanging out with all my friends at the Pumpkin Stage! I hope you're enjoying all your Halloween candy as much as I am.

Today and tomorrow Pandanda is celebrating Day of the Dead, a holiday that has roots in Mexico, but is observed throughout the world. Day of the Dead is a time of celebration in honor and remembrance of friends and family members who have died. Decorated skull masks are common symbols of this holiday. When you log into Pandanda during the celebration you will get your own mask to wear!

Don’t forget, the last day of the Pumpkin Festival is Wednesday. You still have time to collect candy and trade it for cool items at the Cauldron of Prizes on West Market Street. And check back tomorrow for the Orange Day photo album!

I know someone who is going to be in the album Henry!
