KIFF: SM&OG making the Spiral your own 2/12

MMORPGs, also known as Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Games, are, in a nutshell, escapes into a virtual reality created by companies for the enjoyment of the players.
Wizard101 fits this description.

MMORPGs thrive on User Generated Content

If you've never played the game before you meet Headmaster Merle Ambrose and his pet Gamma the Owl


They consult the Book of Secrets
and give you a little test that you can skip
afterwords once you've chosen your school you can create from the limited choices what your character looks like.

First you choose the Gender
Girl

Boy






Either a girl or a boy

After that you can change the face, hair shapes and colors and skintone, as well as the colors of the initial outfit he/she wears.

After making your selections you name your wizard

Keep in mind that once you choose your wizard's face & hair, it's Permanent. 


You then choose your wizard's name, and after you click Okay or Done, you're wisked off to the tutorial.


Later on in the game, your wizard can purchase their own houses.  They can decorate them in infinitely different ways.

For more information I suggest you visit  the fansite Wizard101 Central It's the biggest example of user generated content for Wizard101.

Wizard101 Central is maintained by two wizards named Jester & Olivia.

Players have uploaded videos and guides on how to do quests, etc.

Without any user generated content, this game would not exist.

 See ya' in the Spiral!

OBJECTION! Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Dual Destinies

First of all, let me state that this game looks very intriguing and I can't wait to add it to my 3DS. All I can hope for is that Capcom DOESN'T treat this game like it treated Rockman DASH 3 (Megaman Legends 3)  Yesterday I woke up and while browsing the Ask Ace Attorney blog on Tumblr and on a post someone asked the mod if they had seen this   the trailer for the English version of Ace Attorney 5.  I had to watch it a few times to realize that I'm not dreaming. This game is coming to the 3DS! Even though the reason I bought my 3ds originally was so that I could play Megaman Legends 3, but we all know how Capcom treated that particular 3DS title.  One of the main differences is that it's in 3D instead of the traditional 2d anime-ish sprites.  Although isn't                                voiced b...

Seriously, sexy Girl Scouts? RANT

TL:DR an Alumna Girl Scout's rant on sexy girl scout uniforms. pictures used in the blog were found using Google. No copyright infringement is meant or intended. I know it's almost Halloween and everything, but I just have to say this: SEXY GIRL SCOUT COSTUMES ARE DISTURBING!!!! It's one thing that "sexy" variations of costumes exist, that's okay. Certain types of costumes can have sexy equivilants, BUT (and that's a bug but) there are others that should not have been touched with the sexy stick.  Costumes like sexy military or medical officials are one thing, but if the sexy costume is of Anything for those under the age of 18 then WTH was it made??? seriously. Cartoon/Anime characters are there for kids to idolize, make them sexy and you might have "little Johnny" or "Little Suzy" asking "Mommy, why is (insert favorite character here) looking like a big boobed woman?" But one of the worst by far are the...

Why? WHY WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY? (Rant)

All I can say is WHY??? Dear Nephrite & Jupiter, What the fucking Hell do you two see in each other????? For one thing, in the original anime you two NEVER MEET, in the manga Jupiter, you kill Nephrite. So why the heck, in the latest episode of Sailor Moon Crystal do you two along with the other Senshi/Shitennou is it implied that you were in love??????? The other Senshi/Shitennou pairings, I coudn't care less about, but this one Nephrite/Jupiter earns nothing but my eternal rage! There is "The Picture" which depicts the Sailor Senshi paired up with the Shitennou, Nephrite is paired with Jupiter. Until episode 10 of Sailor Moon Crystal this was non-canon. Here comes Sailor Moon Crystal & BOOM Senshi/Shitennou unabashedly subtle and thrown in your face!
