10, 10, 10 Contest!

10 Dollar, 10 Wizard101 Gift Cards, 10 People!

Yes, as you have read I will be giving away 10 dollar, 10 wizard101 gift cards, to 10 people! I was planning on making this contest update later on, but I wanted to make it now because I couldn't wait any longer on telling you guys. You may have read my tweets on Twitter mentioning that I was going to have an epic contest! Well this is the announcement of the new contest I am having later on. Just like I said, I would like to make it earlier so everyone will know about it. Here is some more details about it.

Contest Details:
You have to be following my blog to have a chance to win one of these cards.
I will give away 2 on Twitter and 2 on Facebook, I will give away 6 on this blog.
I never had to say this before, but with it being a big contest, please don't beg on Facebook or Twitter, that gets very annoying.
I will announce the day later on, I have to buy the cards, and get ready for the contest date. So for now, I will give you a little detail of when the contest might be. Whenever I reach a certain point on my blog, I will announce 10x10x10 on a blog post. Look for that! Also, I will announce it through twitter if you win. For Facebook I will be posting on your wall if you win. Good luck!

Why such a big contest?
Since I didn't tell you why above, I want to have this contest to thank you all for supporting my blog. It really does mean a lot that you do, so I am going to treat all of you with a contest! I shouldn't say contest, because this is a giveaway too! I hope you guys do enjoy this contest-give away, and I hope that you guys also do enjoy reading my blog. Thanks for reading Around the Spiral with Edward Lifegem!!

Second Project

Hello Wizards,

I went to Kingsisle's site and found something different on it! I would like you to guess what I found- Unless someone else found it first- The Second Project. Guess what, it is different now and it now had 3 photos instead of one from that other time. I can't believe that they made some new photos for it. Here is a little message they wrote about it and the pictures will be below that message.

Kingsisle is coming out with a second project soon! The creator of amazing family online games like Wizard101 is rolling out a new kid safe game. From an award winning family entertainment gaming company, our second project is sure to delight gamers of all ages.





Since I couldn't copy the other 3 photos, go to this site for more information! http://www.ki.p101/products
Scroll down and you will see the new photos, but remember, they aren't going to show you them until the project is released. Kind of like the Celestia photos. I think most do remember those. If you don't, they made a couple of characters show up on the Celestia photo each time they got closer to releasing Celestia!

When this is released, I am going to start playing that game along with Wizard101. I might be blogging about both of the games instead of just Wizard101. Sign me up when this second project is released. If there is a beta, I would love to sign up!

---------------------------------------------------Test Realm---------------------------------------------

I am sure many of you guys do know the test realm is online. Make sure go to try out the world Wysteria and see what adventures it brings you! It has certainly brought me a lot and I have yet again made more discoveries throughout this world. Malistaire and Merle Ambrose both went to this school, and there has to be a reason they left the school and made a school that seemed just like Pigswick Academy. I think that the school has more mysteries behind it than we think. Maybe there will be a side world to it? Grizzleheim is a side world, and it had Wintertusk with it. So maybe one day we will get more information about Pigswick Academy. If you haven't been to the test realm yet, here is a link to it: https://www.wizard101.com/game/game-preview

Oh and here is another link I would like to give you guys to read. I don't know if you have read this yet, but Fred Howard mentioned at the end of this article about a new major update they are working on for the end of the year!

Well that's it for today everyone, I hope to see you in the game! Enjoy the Test realm while it lasts!

Merle Ambrose and Belladonna Crisp

Hello Wizards,

Today I would like to talk about some similarities, yet differences between each school of Merle Ambrose, and Belladonna's school. I went into the test realm the other day and noticed that Belladonna Crisp was talking about our school, when there are similarities between the schools. At first I did think that the schools were separate from each other, until I looked into the details today to see how similar they were to each other.  Here are some things I found during a little of research today.

Both schools have a power source:
Magic Fountain?

Bartleby


Even though they say the schools aren't the same, they really are. I two schools that did look the same to me.  The life and the Earth Schools.




They both seem the same to me, even though they do explain them different. I wonder why they do think they are different though? I would also compare the frost school to the ice school. Hmm maybe one day we will find out more about these schools and power sources they claim. Maybe Merle copied off of Pigswick Academy or maybe Pigswick Academy copied off of  Ravenwood Academy? Who knows? Well maybe the headmaster and headmistress do!



Well that's it for now. See you all around the Spiral! I will continue to see what other mysteries both schools do have. Maybe one day we will find out more about each school!

My Adventures Through Wysteria

Hello Wizards!

Today I just noticed that the test realm was released! Now, I haven't been having too much fun before the test realm was released. Before I wasn't really wanting to get on wizard101, until today! Today I decided to test out the new world, Wysteria. If you ask me, it is a very nice world, and It actually made me feel like I was a new wizard when I first started playing it. When you first start wizard101 you talk to all of the professors and they are all new to you, well you also talk to all of the professors in Wysteria!


Here is one of the professors that I decided to take a picture of. There are 4 professors in Wysteria! It was fun talking to them, just like talking to the professors when you start wizard101. I think the best part of this was that I did seeing Pegasus horse in this new world! They also mentioned them as being mounts when reading a quest! I took a photo of this mount so everyone could see!


I am glad they did make a mount like that! I hope it will be released soon if it is a mount. Knowing that we don't have them right now, I am sure they will be released soon if they mentioned it in a quest. Also, don't forget, in the quest in Marleybone, Celestia was mentioned. Since this mount was mentioned, maybe it will become a mount soon! That would be very awesome. I would take the one in front of me since it matches my school. It would be awesome if there was one for each school, and all of them would look different!


------------End Of Blog Post----------

This may be a spoiler alert for those who don't want to see. So do read this if you don't want to find out the story line of Wysteria just yet. During this story line, It really did seem that the headmaster of this school was really blaming Professor Ambrose, and talking bad about how Ravenwood School of Magical arts was. When she was talking about Ambrose, and the school I kept thinking that maybe she was the bad one. Throughout the story line it kept getting mysterious! Another one I thought was bad was Randolf, he kept saying he was going to win the competition, and when the reward was stolen, I thought that he may of been the one to frame me for stealing it, and he could have won from me being disqualified from this competition.. Until the very end, The Earth teacher was the one who did frame me, but he was under a spell, and I finally saved him!


After this very long story line, I finally won the reward, defeating the last of this competition!
IF there is a next year for this, I will make sure I will win it again! Don't worry about that one! :)

Well, You finally made it to the end of the blog post. I hope you enjoyed this post, and here are a couple of other photos of the new world if you would like to look at them. Oh and maybe there will be more of a story line to this some time later. I really did enjoy this Kingsisle, and thanks for bringing back Wizard to Wizard101!
