Stream Renaming Contest Winners

Hey everyone!

During the Halloween Run, Edward Lifegem and I announced that we will be renaming the Twitch channel that we stream on.  It is currently called "Edward Lifegem" and we wanted it to be something more inclusive for the community, so we asked all of you to send us your ideas.  We got so many great ideas! It was very difficult to choose.  We chose our five favorites and each of those people will receive 5,000 crowns.   You can see the winners, listed in random order, along with their entries below.

Halloween Run 2018 Recap

Hey everyone!

Wowza! Yesterday was the day of the Halloween Run and it was so much fun!  You can see a recap in White Tiger's video below.

We kicked off the stream at 12pm CDT and we already had a few areas of people at that time.  After some time dancing, we headed off to farm Lord Nightshade and Nosferabbit for a bit.

After the farming, we had lots of other activities such as Hide and Seek and a Skeletal Pirate Raid.  We also brought everyone Trick or Treating around Wizard City where everyone present received codes for skeleton keys, crowns, mega snack pack, and a jack o'lantern pet!  It was so much fun and I think everyone that was there would agree with me! But even after all that, we still had one more trick up our sleeves.  Everyone received a rare 1-Day Bone Dragon mount courtesy of Kingsisle!

We ran all the way through Wizard City and then it was time for the after parties! There were three houses.  One was a maze by Sarah Skystrider, which was aMAZEing! The other two were my house and Gabby's house, where we had housing games, pvp, and contests.  Gabby even had a dance off which looked like a lot of fun, and I had Pumpkin Tic-tac-toe! :)

I really think this was one of our best events ever! I had so much fun with everyone from the community and I can't wait until our next event!  Speaking of which.....we announce the dates for the Turkey Run and Santa Run at the end of the stream! You can see those dates below.  See you soon!

The Great Detective Bundle Available at Gamestop

Hey everyone!

Wizard101 has released a new bundle called the Great Detective bundle!  This bundle is available at Gamestop and gamestop.com for $29.  It is "Sherlock" themed and includes lots of great items.

1.  Hot Air Balloon Ride - This is a super awesome housing item that allows you to go in the basket of the balloon and get a bird's-eye view of your house.

2.  Gyrocycle Mount - This mount is currently one of my favorites in the game.  You are essentially riding around in a giant wheel! It looks really cool and is lots of fun to ride around in.  Kingsisle did a great job on this mount!

3. Baskerville Hound Pet - I haven't trained this pet yet, so I'm not sure what stats it gives, but it definitely looks awesome!  For those of you wondering, it is a myth pet and gives 2 stun block cards.

4.  Sherlock's Outfit and Eyeglass- Your wizard can now look like a detective with this gear!  The default color is red, but it can be dyed, which is nice.  There are 13 different tiers that you can choose from when you redeem it.

5.  5,000 Crowns or 1-Month Membership

This is a really fun-themed bundle and a great value at $29.  My favorite parts of the bundle are the balloon ride and the mount.  Those alone make the bundle worth it to me, but everything in it is really awesome! As I said above, it is available at Gamestop, but if your local store doesn't have it, you can get them online at the Gamestop website.  We are also giving one away for our Halloween Run 2018 Video Guide Contest so you can enter that before Sunday, October 28th for a chance to win! Just click the link for the rules.  As always, thanks for reading and see you soon!
