Wizards! It's time to visit the new world <b>Azteca</b> and help stop Morganthe from destroying the world! Wizards who are a minimum of level 80 and who have completed the Avalon quest "A Great Storm Coming" must speak to Cyrus Drake in Ravenwood (not Merle like you usually do). He will send you along to Marleybone for a very unique experience. Completing Cyrus' quest will give you the Spiral Key to Azteca. Azteca is by far the hardest world Kingsisle has released, with enemies using mastery amulets, tower shields, and the return of some well-known cheating and non-cheating bosses!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
See you in Azteca Wizards!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Ahoy Pirates! I am currently in a very <i>interesting</i> situation, thanks to Captain Avery yet again! While I was sailing back to Skull Island, I was attacked by lots and lots of pirates! They all wanted a "map," and apparently Captain Avery said I had it! As it turns out, however, Avery had the map all along, but told everyone I had it because he thought I died in Monquista. How nice of him! But Avery didn't even have the entire map, he only had one piece, and all the others were hidden around the spiral.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6QBrXKOqsJs/UJ_BJhHcRQI/AAAAAAAAAk0/S6bmhVDQuq0/s1600/Picture+2012-10-28+13-57-54.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6QBrXKOqsJs/UJ_BJhHcRQI/AAAAAAAAAk0/S6bmhVDQuq0/s320/Picture+2012-10-28+13-57-54.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Avery decided to tell me the story of El Dorado, and how Marco Pollo hid all the pieces of the map to El Dorado all around the spiral. Apparently, I found the first piece of the map in Captain Gunn's Treasure!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kpx3DpBzR3o/UJ_BKQFN7pI/AAAAAAAAAk8/46oLGhwRL_E/s1600/Picture+2012-10-28+13-58-12.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kpx3DpBzR3o/UJ_BKQFN7pI/AAAAAAAAAk8/46oLGhwRL_E/s320/Picture+2012-10-28+13-58-12.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After much persuasion, I was convinced to help Captain Avery find El Dorado, for equal share of the treasure!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-8S0vtsjX1cA/UJ_BLMITrSI/AAAAAAAAAlA/7onajywCdcI/s1600/Picture+2012-10-28+14-27-31.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-8S0vtsjX1cA/UJ_BLMITrSI/AAAAAAAAAlA/7onajywCdcI/s320/Picture+2012-10-28+14-27-31.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And <i>after </i>I agreed Avery decided to tell me that the Clockwork Armada was also after the map pieces, because once they found El Dorado, they could finish their plans of taking over the spiral. In attempt to find the next piece of the map, Avery sent me to Valencia, where Marco Pollo studied.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Once I arrived I spoke with an old unicorn who pointed me in the right direction; Sivella.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SHxuSOwy1lU/UJ_BMCAFrsI/AAAAAAAAAlU/40VvxtWQwK0/s1600/Picture+2012-10-28+16-30-07.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SHxuSOwy1lU/UJ_BMCAFrsI/AAAAAAAAAlU/40VvxtWQwK0/s320/Picture+2012-10-28+16-30-07.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Valencia was an interesting place, however, since it's taken over by the Armada.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5V5FXlKeuYA/UJ_BMmDD2GI/AAAAAAAAAlc/Wwka7P7WxPU/s1600/Picture+2012-10-28+16-31-40.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5V5FXlKeuYA/UJ_BMmDD2GI/AAAAAAAAAlc/Wwka7P7WxPU/s320/Picture+2012-10-28+16-31-40.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had to put on a <i>lovely</i> disguise in order to gain access into Sivella. Look at my friend to the left!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3U7b9wEqwNY/UJ_BNNNofvI/AAAAAAAAAlk/9IEKv8rJgBA/s1600/Picture+2012-10-28+16-39-10.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3U7b9wEqwNY/UJ_BNNNofvI/AAAAAAAAAlk/9IEKv8rJgBA/s320/Picture+2012-10-28+16-39-10.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I spoke with a historian in Sivella, and he sent me to the library to find Marco Pollo's collection. His map must be in there!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-g-QMzpVgSgc/UJ_BNzR882I/AAAAAAAAAls/oM6H5uOwR94/s1600/Picture+2012-10-28+16-44-57.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-g-QMzpVgSgc/UJ_BNzR882I/AAAAAAAAAls/oM6H5uOwR94/s320/Picture+2012-10-28+16-44-57.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Unfortunately the library was taken over by the Armada...</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I had to fight my way through!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When I arrived, I was already too late! The Armada had already searched through Pollo's collection at the library!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I returned to Sivella and was told that there was a small chance a map piece may be in Marco Pollo's tomb on Granchia.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-zaLKdZJfBpY/UJ_BP7gC1ZI/AAAAAAAAAmM/SkGVnDsqVnQ/s1600/Picture+2012-10-28+17-27-18.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-zaLKdZJfBpY/UJ_BP7gC1ZI/AAAAAAAAAmM/SkGVnDsqVnQ/s320/Picture+2012-10-28+17-27-18.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When I arrived the Armada was eating the island with one of their machines!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-eGUw0eyC-6Y/UJ_BQamVqmI/AAAAAAAAAmU/nP9TrYhprUA/s1600/Picture+2012-10-28+17-35-57.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-eGUw0eyC-6Y/UJ_BQamVqmI/AAAAAAAAAmU/nP9TrYhprUA/s320/Picture+2012-10-28+17-35-57.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When my crew and I found Marco Pollo's tomb, we were encountered by Phule, a member of Kane's Court! He knew exactly who we were! Look at this, Avery's gotten us a royal enemy!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Phule had his soldiers attack us, but luckily we made it out alive!</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Without a map piece, we returned to the wise old unicorn who helped us in the beginning. He told us that perhaps we should speak to someone who knew Marco Pollo, and pointed us in the direction of Brother Varo.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Brother Varo knew exactly what we were talking about! He sent us to find Christopher Clark in Cool Ranch to find Marco Pollo's map!</div>

Thank you Wizards and Pirates alike! I am happy to announce that Gem of the Spiral will soon be reaching 5,000 visitors, and that is more than I ever expected! I never imagined people would be interested in a blog like this, by someone they probably don't even know! I am just happy that my posts are helpful and entertaining to people all around the spiral, and plan to continue! </div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Despite my entries in the <i>Journal of a Dead-Eye Pirate,</i> you haven't really been given that much information on my in-game experiences and who I am. As the first of many rewards for this visitor celebration, this post will be all about my pirate and wizards, and even a way you can become friends with me!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Ahoy mateys! My name is Dead-Eye Dustin! Lately, I've been a slow sailing pirate, and I'm only level 25, but that will soon change as I search around Cool Ranch for Captain Blood's treasure! Inside his treasure is one of the pieces of Marco Pollo's map, and will put me one step closer to reaching El Dorado! If you can't already tell, I'm a Witchdoctor, and that means I use the Hoodoo powers to summon undead, weaken, and destroy the enemies. My trusty companions Mormo and Old Scratch also harness the power of Hoodoo, and together we are one Hoodoo of a crew! Too much, eh?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As you can see, I'm not that wealthy of a pirate... But that's because I spend all me booty on ships and ship parts that better suit my nautical level of 18! I'm also part Privateer, as I use my practice points to help me learn to heal myself and my allies!</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And here are my trusty companions! I choose to keep them all leveled at around the same time, so that way I won't have the chance of a really underpowered companion joining my battle. This is critical for me, as I am a solo-pirate (as seen in my videos), and a strong team is required to be able to solo!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well that's all about my pirate! Stay tuned for an entry on my wizard, <i>and</i> a contest coming soon, once I finally do reach 5,000 visitors! See you around the spiral!</div>

Ahoy pirates! Today began my journey to find the Monkey's Paw! Just to catch everyone up, I'm searching for the Monkey's Paw so the Opposition has some leverage over the Holy Monquisition. If I help them, they will sign my trade papers for Captain Avery! My journey for the Paw begins in the sewers, as I attempt to break into Monquista City for information on where the Claw is hidden.</div>

Ahoy pirates! What good news I have! I finally managed to find a Windstone that allowed me to go through the Monquistan stormgate! Now, I am in Monquista, attempting to take part in an opposition against the tyrannical Holy Monquisition. This epic quest started when I first arrived in Monquista City, and I spoke with the King and Queen at their palace.</div>

I wasn't given a very warm welcome until they found out I was the one who captured Gortez!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The King and Queen gave me one last job, to take Gortez to a prison called Zenda. But it turns out that it was a trap! The guards at Zenda attempted to defeat Gortez and my crew! Despite what I did to Gortez, he helped me defeat the Monquisition Guards.</div>

Her name is Queen Eleanor, and she is one of the many ex-queens who once ruled Monquista. The new royals are tyrannical, and she needs my help to start a civil war. </div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I spoke with other queens who weren't so fond of my "hairless-ness," but when I returned to Zenda Queen Eleanor told me of her plan to stop the Holy Monquisition. The Monkey's Paw.</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And that's when things got interesting... Don Kehotay had been truned into Donkey Hotey by the Monkey's Paw! Now not only did I need to find the paw to start a civil war, but I needed to help turn Donkey Hotey back! 'Til next time Pirates!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hello Wizards! Today is a great day indeed for students of Ravenwood! The next world has been officially announced, and will be released to the Test Realm some time<i><b> </b>this week!</i> Here is the official article from <a href="http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/game/362/feature/6832/Still-Going-Strong-Azteca-Announced.html/page/1" target="_blank">MMORPG.com</a></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16.933332443237305px; text-align: start;">"Wizard101 has been on the scene for several years now and is one of the most innovative and successful family-friendly MMOs out there. Recently, Austin-based KingsIsle Studio launched its second title, Pirate101. Clearly KingsIsle is doing something right.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16.933332443237305px; text-align: start;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
With Pirate101’s launch, however, small waves of concern have begun to ripple throughout the Wizard101 community. ‘What will happen to <em style="background-position: 0% 0%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;">our</em> game?’ ‘Are all of the developers now working on Pirate101 and leaving just a skeleton crew for <em style="background-position: 0% 0%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;">our</em> game?’</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
These are all fair questions and things that need to be answered. I had the distinct pleasure of talking with Wizard101 Producer Leah Ruben. Right out the gate, and without even being asked, she told me that Wizard101’s team is big, thriving and committed to keep the content coming for ardent Wizard101 players. In fact, Leah told me, the team is bigger <em style="background-position: 0% 0%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;">now</em> than it was at launch.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
“Rest assured,” she said. “We’re still going strong.”</div>
</div>
<div style="background-position: 0% 0%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.45em !important; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: start; width: auto;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
If the numbers are any indication, KingsIsle still has a winner in Wizard101. There are over thirty million registered players and the metrics indicated that over twenty million unique visitors per month check out the W101 site.</div>
</div>

What better way to prove just how committed KingsIsle is to its flagship title than with the announcement that Wizard101 will be seeing another world launching this year! That’s right. We have the inside story about the second major world addition to Wizard101 in 2012.</div>

Called “Azteca”, the new world is one filled with dinosaurs. You read it right: <em style="background-position: 0% 0%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;">DINOSAURS!</em> Azteca is packed with thirteen separate zones and filled with quests enough to help players reach the astonishing new level cap of 90, up from 80 after Avalon’s release in May.</div>

Azteca also comes with new epic high-level class-specific spells, and new Astral spells. The W101 team has gone back to making flashing awesome cinematic spells that have wowed players forever. But what makes these new spells even more incredible is that they will be themed to Azteca’s environments.</div>

Players will have a dual purpose in Azteca: Morganthe is making an appearance there complete with her minions and monstrous hordes. Players will face off against the Hungry Dead, Morganthe’s Umbra Legion, and the dread Comet Xibalba. And if that’s not enough, we were teased with this comment:</div>

What? Who could it possibly be? Leah wouldn’t tell me but rest assured that it will be surprising.</div>

The secondary purpose players will be working to accomplish in Azteca is the rescue of the world’s residents: Aztecosaurs, Avians, and Jaguars. Aztecosaurs have been living underground for ten years, the same amount of time that it was thought that the Azteca world was lost to the ages. But with the threat of the Comet Xibalba, they have resurfaced and send a messenger to find help from others in the Spiral. The Aztecosaurs send out a Quetzal Messenger with their request for assistance and a key to reopen the world to other residents of the Spiral. They will need all the help they can get as the Messenger comes to request aid chased by Morganthe’s hordes.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Leah assured me that there will be plenty of things for players to do. There will be new epic Azteca-themed gear and housing decorations to find as well as the chance to face off against one of Wizard101’s meanest baddies, Morganthe…and her mysterious accomplice.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
The best part about this entire revelation from Leah and KingsIsle is the announcement that Azteca will be placed on the Public Test Realm <strong style="background-position: 0% 0%; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px;">later this week</strong>!

Ahoy pirates! It is I Dead-Eye Dustin! I have successfully recovered Captain Gunn's treasure, and now I am encouraged by Captain Avery to complete another daring task! He wishes to set up a trade company with the Monquistadors, but they're not very... <i>open...</i> to the rest of the spiral. It is my job to present some of Captain Gunn's treasure as gift to the Monquistadors in request for a trade company. When I got to Puerto Mico, a Monquistan Territory on Skull Island, things didn't exactly go as planned... The majordomo was not fond of my "outfit" so I had to get another one.</div>

I spoke with Bishop Hidalgo, who sent me to the Isle of Doom to bring back the long lost Gortez home. Apparently he was sent their to investigate something known as "The Gold Monkey," but he never came back! So it was now my duty to get him back. During my journey for Gortez I fought many vicious enemies!</div>

When I returned, however, there was new governor! Apparently the first wasn't fit for the job... This new governor had no idea what I had been doing, so she told me to deliver Gortez to the Holy Monquisition, and speak with the King and Queen of Monquista. What an interesting change in events this has been! I'll write more when I arrive in Monquista! Until next time pirates!</div>

After some consideration, and feedback from readers, I have decided to discontinue the use of "Pirate Talk," as some Pirates felt it was difficult to read and hard to understand the story.

Ahoy pirates! Welcome to the Great Skull Island Scavenger Hunt! Marco Pollo sent me a special map with two codes, but I must first make sure the recipients are worthy of such a great reward... Below are six pictures of objects located throughout Skull Island. In order to prove yourself, you must be one of the first two pirates to take a picture of yourself standing with these items! The next three people to send their pictures will receive a Wizard101 Pack of their choice. All pictures should be sent (in one email when you are finished) to <a href="mailto:dustinfiregem@gmail.com">dustinfiregem@gmail.com</a>. The contest has ended. <b>All winners should contact me if they have not received their prize yet.</b></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ahoy mateys! Yesterday I received some mail from Marco Pollo himself, and he was kind enough to give me a duplicate of his map that would help me gain a new ally in my crew! This isn't an ordinary "X Marks the Spot" kind of map though, I needed to solve puzzles to get me reward!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>From the journal of Marco Pollo -</i></blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>In my voyage across the Spiral, on the world of Mooshu, I discovered a powerful and invaluable treasure: selfless loyalty in the form of a pledge of service to any who decipher the secrets embedded within this precious map. My map has other uses... secret uses beyond showing the path to El Dorado. I have concealed five sets of codes within my map to grant this sacred gift to those who are worthy. Yet this trust is not to be taken lightly, so two additional sets of codes are interspersed to mislead the unworthy. The five proper codes, placed together in the right order, will yield that great treasure, while the two lesser codes, placed together in their own correct order, will send travelers to another place with its own reward. This may be for naught however. My map is the key to a power so great and terrible that I must take extraordinary measures. I will tear it into seven pieces and scatter those pieces across the Spiral. In time, perhaps it can be restored through the greatest effort... but that time is still to come. For now, perhaps the codes I have hidden within the pieces of my map can be of use against the forces of tyranny and evil.</i></blockquote>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And thus I began my journey for the codes! Now I've heard that I was only one of the few people who received this map, and since my code can be given to two more lucky pirates, I will be sharing it; for a price of course!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just as Marco Pollo did, I will be sending YOU on a treasure hunt throughout Skull Island! The first two to complete the treasure hunt will receive the code from Marco Pollo's map, and the following three winners will receive a <b>Wizard101 Pack</b> (subject to change) of their choice. Much more detailed information will be announced in the coming hours, and it will start sometime tomorrow morning, so follow my twitter (<a href="http://www.twitter.com/dustinfiregem" rel="nofollow">@DustinFiregem</a>) for updates! The official start time will be announced on my twitter sometime tonight and then added to this post. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Good luck pirates!</div>

It turns out that th' residents o' Jonah Town be in debt t' th' Frogfather, an' have b'n pay'n him booty t' "protect" their precious whale o' an island! Cap'n Ahab told me where I could find th' Frogfather... An' I wished I ne'er found out...</div>

Th' Frogfather lived in Gullet, an isle inside th' fly'n whale's stomach! Aft some investigat'n I found out where th' Frogfather be hid'n.</div>

Hello everyone! Has your October been Spook-tacular yet? I know mine has, since I was able to attend Paige Moonshade's <a href="http://www.paigemoonshade.com/2012/10/welcome-to-october-fall-festivals.html">House of Doom!</a> It was a very exciting event, and although I wasn't lucky enough to win any prizes, I still had a blast! I'd like to thank Ms. Moonshade very much for hosting this event, as she needed a large amount of patience to handle all of the guests at her house! I've never seen someone handle a party like this so well, so once again, thank you Paige Moonshade! For those of you her weren't able to attend last night, don't you worry! The House of Doom will be returning October 19th for one hour! Visit <a href="http://www.paigemoonshade.com/2012/10/welcome-to-october-fall-festivals.html">Paige's Page</a> for more info! Are you busy that day too? No problem! I decided to take some pictures of the exciting event to show all of you!</div>

<b>Thanks for Attending the Pirate101 Sneak Peak Event!</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To start off, I'd like to thank all the advanced Beta players for their <i>huge </i>attendance in helping the new pirates who were giving the game a try! There were SO many pirates already waiting outside Avery's Office before the sneak peak even began! Everyone was extremely helpful to the community, and I was happy to see that the friendliness from Wizard101 spread over to Pirate101. I'd also like to thank all the new pirates who weren't a part of the beta who helped stress test the Pirate101 server. There was a huge attendance, and I loved hearing the comments from everyone playing on how amazing the game was! Of course, some people were unable to attend the event, so I decided to take some pictures to share with everyone!</div>

All-in-all, this was by far the most fun I've had in the Pirate101 beta so far! There's only one more opportunity for that to change, and that's at the <i>End of Beta Party</i> hosted by <a href="http://www.paigemoonshade.com/2012/10/end-of-beta-party.html">Paige Moonshade</a>. This party will take place on Saturday, October 6th at 3:00 PM EST, and will end at the Beta Closing time at 6:00 PM EST. Hopefully all beta veterans will be able to attend! I will be there, so I hope to see some friendly faces!</div>

<li style="padding: 0px 0px 8px;">Has no level restriction.</li>

Ahoy pirates! Do I have some good news from you! Here is a post taken from Pirate101 Central;<br />
<span style="font-family: pirateregular; font-size: x-large;">Shiver Me Timbers!</span></div>
<blockquote>
<br style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: start;" />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: start;">Put on your eye patch, sharpen your cutlass and wake up your parrot. You can play Pirate101, the highly anticipated follow-up to KingsIsle Entertainment’s family-friendly online game Wizard101, as soon as next week.</span> </blockquote>

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: start;">On Monday October 8, anyone that purchased a Pirate101 pre-launch bundle or participated in the game’s beta test will be able to log in and enjoy a one week head start in the game, according to KingsIsle. You can also get early access if you purchase certain membership types or buy a Pirate101 retail game card –they’ll be in stores on October 8th as well. Everyone else gets their chance to play the game when general availability begins on Monday, October 15.</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: start;">Pirate101 is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game where players become swashbuckling pirates, assemble a crew, captain a ship, and explore exotic worlds in search of for plunder and glory. When it is released to the general public on October 15, the game will be free to download and play, but users will have to purchase a monthly subscription or spend “crowns,” KingsIsle’s virtual currency, to access certain locations.</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: start;">Pirate101 is set in The Spiral, the same universe as Wizard101, though the two games feature different locations: Players can sail their sky ships between five new worlds, Skull Island, Monquista, Valencia, Cool Ranch and MooShu. When they run into trouble, Pirate101 also handles combat differently; instead of a card-game mechanic, it uses a turn-based strategy system. Generally, the game feels more “adult.” It’s still family-friendly, but the action and humor should appeal more to older players.</span><br />
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; text-align: start;">Wizard101 was targeted at children between the ages of 8 and 12, but also proved popular with adults, particularly parents who play with their kids. It currently has over 30 million registered players in the US alone. The game competes with other kid-friendly MMOs like Sony’s Free Realms, Jagex Games Studio’s RuneScape and Disney’s Club Penguin. Pirate101 is meant to skew slightly older, for kids who have grown out of Wizard101, but aren’t yet old enough for adult MMOs like Activision Blizzard‘s World of Warcraft.</span><br />

This is some very good news, and I can't wait to finally sail the skyways with all you pirates! I will be playing from day one of the pre-launch, so hopefully by the official launch I can start helping some of the novice pirates! With the official release of Pirate101, I'd also like to announce a new project I'll be starting; <i>The Journal of a Dead-Eye Pirate.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i><br /></i>
<i>The Journal of a Dead-Eye Pirate </i>will be a a regularly updated (one to three times each week) blog section that will be based completely off of my journeys through Pirate101! This will help those Pirates who don't have the opportunity to play or are unable to subscribe the change to look into the world of Pirate101! <i>The Journal of a Dead-Eye Pirate </i>will feature gettogethers and contests, and will be a good source for those who are stuck in a part of the game, as I will feature some step-by-step guides.<br />
<br />
Well, until next time Pirates!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10221406813877189773noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-944642889033852348.post-58928579169117891702012-09-30T08:30:00.002-07:002012-09-30T08:33:02.110-07:00To Steel or Not to Steel...<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: inherit;">Ahoy there mateys! Dead-Eye Dustin here, with an all new step-by-step guide for on the of the final bosses in MooShu; The Metal Guardian. The Metal Guardian, also known as the Riddle of Steel, is currently one of the more challenging fights of Pirate101.

Ahoy, me hearties! It is I, Dead-Eye Dustin, the Gem of the Spiral! I have some wonderful news! I have finally finished my treasure hunting in the world known as Cool Ranch! It was quite an adventure, saving brides, defeating undead, and even finally destroying a very high ranked Armada general - Deacon. So you want me to tell you about my adventure, do you? Well of course I will!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Cool Ranch was a very <i>long</i> world. Compared to Monquista, I would say it is more than twice the size. It is extremely fun at the beginning- did anyone else feel like they were in a Looney Toons episode?- but by the end it does seem to drag on...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Despite its length, I did have an incredible time! I had to break two future brides out of captivity! One of them looks a little familiar, eh? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Look its Selena- er... SERENA! I had to save Serena from Banditoads to help prove that I was worthy to meet El Toro. And it proved to work! After convincing El Toro I had to rescue HIS bride as well, from a Marleybonian prision in Port Regal! </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Love at first sight, eh? I had to save Mustang Sally from the clutches of the Marleybonians while she was on a super secret mission! I won't spoil it for you, but we worked together to break an emperor out of that prison!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
And then I had to defeat the head of the Banditoads, Santa Rana! El Toro and I broke directly into his palace and showed him who's in charge!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Eventually I sailed through the Haunted Skyways of Cool Ranch to find out where Captain Blood hid Marco Pollo's treasure! I was successful, but when I found the gold I was encountered by one of good friends- <u>Deacon.</u> This time he wasn't going to let me escape, so he joined his troops to defeat me! But boy, did I prove him wrong...</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And that's the end of my Cool Ranch adventures... Where will I go next? Well, perhaps somewhere very familiar to some Wizards! Stay tuned for more on the next world!</div>
