Happy Easter! Apr. 12th, 2009
Happy Easter everyone! I had a great time meeting all of you yesterday! We had a lot of Pandas show up and I hope I got to say "hi" to everyone who came to see me. Sheriff Steele said he had a lot of fun too! We will have some photos from the party in the PLA Today newspaper this week.

This is the last day of the Easter Egg Hunt so find those eggs and trade them in for the cool prizes!

As some of you heard yesterday, we are going to have a Pandanda contest! I will post again this evening with all the details. Have fun!

New Server Added Apr. 9th, 2009
Hey everyone! As you may have already noticed, there are now 2 servers for Pandanda, Willow and Oak! When you log in you'll see both servers listed and you'll need to choose which one to play on. The servers are identical and each time you log in you get to choose which server you want.

Now, to answer a few questions I've been getting.
  • Will I be able to keep the Easter Egg Hunt prizes after Beta?
    Yes! You will get to keep all items from special events! This includes the Egg Hunt items, Winter Party items, and Valentine's Day items so far.

  • Will the bunny potion will be around after Easter?
    Paige might be able to obtain some more bunny potions in the future but it could be a long time. So stock up this week!

Lastly, I wanted to remind everyone that I'll be in Pandanda this Saturday. I have a lot of pandas to meet so I'll be moving around a lot to each location and between both servers. So the best chance of meeting me is if you don't move around too much. I will be around for about an hour and I want to make sure I can meet everyone!

Check the list below to find out when I'll be in Pandanda for your time zone. For everyone in Australia, I will try to visit you again at a better time later this spring!

Egg Hunt is Underway! Apr. 7th, 2009
Hi Pandas!

The Easter Egg Hunt is now in full swing. The Easter Bunny did a pretty good job of hiding the eggs all over Pandanda Land. I've only found a handful so far but I've seen other Pandas with some of the cool new prizes. Seems like a lot more bunnies running around too. :)

Check out the updated in-game newspaper, PLA Today, for hints on where to look. The basket underneath the map icon on the right hand side of the screen will tell you how many eggs you have. When you find an egg it will be added to the basket. Don't worry, the eggs you find will still be there even if you log out.

Pandanda online game for kids http://www.pandanda.com

Finally, for all the Pandas that have been emailing me asking if we can meet, I wanted to let you know I'll be in Pandanda hunting for eggs this Saturday at 11am PST. That will be 11am PST (USA west coast), 2pm EST (USA east coast), 7pm in the United Kingdom, and 8pm in Poland. I can't wait to meet all of you and I hope to see you there!

How to Catch Bunnies and Easter Hunt Rumor! Apr. 1st, 2009
Hi Pandas, Happy April Fool’s Day!

Catching Farmer Dan’s bunnies in Darby Field reminds me of one bunny in particular at this time of year. That’s right….the Easter bunny! I heard an exciting rumor that the Easter bunny will be hiding eggs for us all to find around Pandanda Land next week. I’ll see if I can find out all the details for you and write about it in my blog over the next few days.

In other news, I’ve been practicing catching Farmer Dan’s bunnies and I’ve come up with a strategy for catching them faster and to win more coins.

I thought you might all like to hear my ideas.

    1. A lot of bunnies seem to appear from the bush near the middle of the feild. I like to stand nearby the bush to catch them as they come out.


    2. It sure feels like I move faster and I’m more nible when I drink one of Paige’s Mouse Hair potions to make myself small. I also think the rabbits can't see me coming quite as easily.

    3. I definitely go out of my way to catch all the brown and especially black bunnies whenever they appear. They are worth so much more that it’s totally worth it to run across the field to catch them.

    4. Right before the bunnies run away completely I like to find a good spot to stand so that I can catch a bunch of bunnies as they run past me.

    Pandanda online game for kids http://www.pandanda.com

    5. I found it’s better to run to a location near a bunch of bunnies by clicking once near the bunnies and then, when I get close to them, I can click on them all.
Well that’s it for today. Happy bunny catching! I know Farmer Dan is very grateful for all of your help. Stay tuned for details on the Easter Eggs!

Spring Time is Here! Mar. 20th, 2009
Hey fellow Pandas! Spring time is finally here! The snow has melted and Darby Field has been discovered! Farmer Dan needs your help keeping his bunnies under control. They love to break out of their hutch and stretch their legs as they hop around the field. You can get to Darby Field from the map or from the Orchard. Read more about Farmer Dan and Darby Field as well as a story on The Big Scoop in the new issue of PLA Today!

Also, you may notice a few changes to the menubar. The news icon and sheriff badge have been added to the menubar to make them easier to find.

I wanted to say thank you again for all the bloggers who sent me links to their blogs. They are all great and helpful for everyone including Pandas who are new to Pandanda. Keep up the great work!

Bunny Field Discovered! Mar. 13th, 2009
Hey everyone, I finally found out where the bunnies are coming from! It turns out that Farmer Dan has a field behind the orchard where he raises bunnies. Those unruly bunnies are always trying to get themselves in trouble and have figured out how to open their bunny hutch. They keep sneaking out, running across the field and off into the orchard. Farmer Dan is worn out from frantically trying to catch them all.

In the next week or so, once the snow has melted, you'll be able to visit his field to help him catch the bunnies. He’ll even pay you some good coins for the help. The bunnies think it’s funny to get chased around and they actually like being caught and put back into their safe and warm hutch after a nice run. I can’t wait! Pandanda online game for kids

And a big “HI” to all of my fellow bloggers out there. I’ve been reading your blogs and wanted to send out kudos to the following bloggers:
Indy 59, Robot, Flamester3000, Sameer1000, AltoBhai, MagieCZ, Wutter, Manis, Lime12101, Tano, Hammer, reporterpandanda, edytkakuki, onlymustang, SarRa220, Oxyah and The Pandanda Gang (Polkagirl919, Blowsight, & Kevinice95)! You have all done a wonderful job!

If I missed anyone, I'm sorry, I get a lot of emails! :) If you have a blog about Pandanda then send me a link as I’d love to see it.

Beta, Blogs, & Bunnies Mar. 7th, 2009
Hey everyone! Wow, a lot to talk about this week!

I've been getting lots of questions about how long beta will last. I can tell you that there's a ton of really cool stuff the Pandanda team is working on for the game, but creating all this cool stuff takes time. The team wants Pandanda to be the best it can be and there's still a lot of work to get there. I will keep everyone updated so you'll know in advance before beta ends.

Also, some people have asked if they can create a Pandanda Blog. If you would like to create your own Pandanda blog that would be fantastic! I love to see Pandanda blogs on the web and I must say they all look terrific! Great job! Remember to send me a link to your blog so I can check it out!

Finally, spring time is just around the corner. I'm excited to see what the new season brings! Perhaps we'll figure out where all the bunnies are coming from.
