GLITCHED Festive Lights!?

UPDATE:

AJHQ FIXED THE GLITCH. THE ITEM IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE IN STORES, IT'S NO LONGER MEMBERS-ONLY, AND YOU CAN NO LONGER RECEIVE A MAGENTA COLOR. THEREFORE, THE GLITCHED FESTIVE LIGHTS ARE VERY RARE.

Hello, hello, hello! It's Christmas Eve! Yahoo! :D

If you haven't logged into Animal Jam today for your daily gift yet, you'd better, because there's something peculiar about the item you will receive.

Today's gift is "Festive Lights".

(this is the color I own)

It's a rather original clothing item that fits nicely around your animal's back, but there are a few too many weird attributes pertaining to it.

Before I get into more detail, let me just say that the string connecting the lights is magenta-colored. You know what that means: something's fishy around here. Here in Jamaa, magenta has the infamous nickname of "the color of glitch".

Firstly, it's MEMBERS-ONLY. No, I'm not saying this just because I strive for Member and Non-Member equality (which is an entirely different subject), but usually a Jamaaliday gift is for all Jammers.

Secondly, it's available for purchase in Jam Mart Clothing for 450 gems.

Thirdly, there are only two colors of this item (as of now): the one shown above with some green lights and one completely magenta.

Don't tell me that's not weird.

But what's even WEIRDER is that this is the same exact situation that the turquoise ring was in.

When it was first released, you couldn't change the color of item more than twice. When AJHQ patched the bug, the "glitched" versions were no longer available, thus making the "glitched" rings extremely valuable.

So, in conclusion, my advice to you is:

TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS OPPORTUNITY. WHO KNOWS, MAYBE A YEAR FROM NOW THIS ITEM WILL BE OUTRAGEOUSLY RARE, SO STOCK UP WHILE YOU CAN! I'VE ALREADY GOT A HOARD MYSELF. :P

Have a fantastic Christmas/Jamaalidays! :)

Aparri and the Swagaholics

This is an early Jamaaliday present for you all. ^.^

Den Betas are Back!?

Hello! :)

Yesterday (was it yesterday? or the day before? whatever, who's keeping track anyway?), a minor update was made to Animal Jam.

Pet penguins were released into the Diamond Shop (why am I not surprised?), the 2016 New Year's party will be arriving soon, etc.

But the biggest addition to Jamaa was the new host-your-own-party system.

Basically, Members are allowed to host their own parties in a pre-decorated den. Kind of like party packages on Webkinz.

There are a few different party themes to choose from. One of them is a trading party.

Each party comes with a miniature store for your guests to shop at.

Well, when I was visiting a trading party earlier today, I noticed that the store had some familiar items for sale...

Yes, my friends. AJHQ has brought back den betas.

Not all of the den betas, of course. Just the fountain, the fire pit, and the bongo drums. At least, those are what I call true den betas that were ACTUALLY FROM BETA TIMES.

Anyway, a lot of my buddies are rather disappointed with these items being released back into the game after so many years.

But the real question here is, why?

Why do YOU think AJHQ brought back these den betas? Do you think they might bring back more den betas in the future?

Leave your thoughts in the comment section down below.

Thanks for reading!

Q&A 2015

Hi there! c:

Christmas is right around the corner, with New Year's just inches behind.

Isn't it strange how quickly this year has gone by? o.0

It seems as if it zoomed past me at the speed of light. Only a faint blur of it I can remember.

Anywho, today I wanted to let you all know that I will be doing a Q&A video for the holidays. ^-^

But before I get into more detail, I just wanted to thank all of you for another wonderful year on Animal Jam. You are all so supportive of me. I don't deserve your kind comments and Jam-A-Grams. ;)

I'm really glad I decided to take that break during the summer. It took so much stress off my shoulders. :3

And ever since I chose to continue posting (whenever I feel like it), you, yes, YOU helped this blog make a comeback.

So, I thought of doing something fun this festive little season: a Q&A video.

That's correct. A Q&A video.

If you've ever wondered why in the world polar bears have black skin, or what my favorite food is, then now is your chance to ask me!

Your questions don't have to be specifically directed towards me, like most Q&A videos. You can ask me anything you want, as long as it's not inappropriate. I want to keep this video rated G/PG, just for the younger viewers. ^.^

I won't answer your questions until the day I record the video, which will be sometime after Christmas.

You can leave your questions down in the comment section down below, e-mail them to me +Nafaria AJ (nafariaaj@gmail.com), or ask me on Animal Jam, if you really need to. :P

Thanks for reading, y'all. xD

Oh, by the way, are you guys enjoying the 25 Days of Giveaways? Should I keep making more? I won't make one today, since I am rather busy, but maybe tomorrow.

Goodbye!

Glitched Gingerbread Man Mask!?

Hey Jammers! ^-^

It's been a while since I've actually made a REAL post. :P

Well, the news I'm about to give you isn't really that NEW, but it's worth a shot, right?

Today I wanted to talk about this supposedly "glitched" gingerbread man mask. At least, I think it's a gingerbread man mask. o.o

This item was released last week (or was it the week before?). What's strange about it is that it has no name. When you hover over the item with your cursor, it either says a bunch of numbers or takes up the name of the item next to it. We don't know the real name of this item, but to me it looks like a gingerbread man mask.

In the picture above, there are two masks. The one shown on the right is the version that most people have. But the one shown on the left is a color that everyone describes as "glitched".

No one is sure where this mask came from, but this item is already glitched to begin with, anyway. Perhaps it was released early in the morning, like around midnight. Maybe it's not "glitched", but only an extremely rare alternate of the original item that only very lucky Jammers received.

Apparently, some Jammers, like Nemachu, are offering as high valued items as tan tiki masks for this "glitched" gingerbread man mask.

If you just so happen to own this super rare item, don't be fooled and trade it away thinking it's not worth something.

Have a jamtastic day! :)

Oh, the glory days!

OH MY GOSH.

Do you SEE it?

DO YOU SEE IT!!??

GOOD.

You and me... we're in a club now.

I cannot WAIT for these polar bear plushies to come out! That is, if they ever do. :P

If you'd like to see some more unreleased items, go to AJHQ's Jamaaliday House den from the Epic Dens list.

Have a great day! ^-^

Jamaaliday House Rant

Yes, it's that time again. Welcome to another rant post.

If you can't handle negativity/rant posts, you'd better leave, because... well, that's all there is to this post.

So, you may have already logged in to see the new update. It's not bad, really. I mean, there's not much new added to the game, but at least deer have returned and another seasonal Adventure is back, right?

But the "new" den isn't even NEW.

If you click on "preview", you might notice that almost EVERYTHING is EXACTLY the same as the Gingerbread House, except for a few more cinnamon roll sidewalks and a colorful candy gazebo on the far left side. :T

This is the same thing that happened with the Epic Haunted Manor.

See, this is exactly WHY I am NOT purchasing this den. >:(

Based on my current knowledge, it becomes apparent that AJHQ isn't being as creative as they should be.

They're taking dens they designed in the previous years, and then making slight adjustments here and there. 

WE WANT NEW DENS.

NOT VERSIONS OF OLD DENS.

NOW WHO'S WITH ME!!??

Day #3: Arctic Coat
