Game Night Review
Game Night was a blast! We had tons of fun with the users and everyone enjoyed themselves.

"Game Night is an amazing event, it brings players together and gives them a chance of show casing their talent in their very favorite game!" - Furry

"It was a great games night which was extremely fun and I would never get bored of it" - Lololol1

"It was great! there was a variety of different magics used, lots of game playing and competitiveness in trying to be first in your favourite game! A great and very eventful evening in my eyes! I will definitely attend the next one:)" - Independent

It sounds like everyone had a great time! If you missed it, here are some snapshots!

Main Blog Updates
Just a few updates added to the blog!
The header looks really funky, it's got a new look to it and is by far the best header yet.

Also, there is a new party tracker designed by Yaniv! This tracker will tell you the upcoming parties including a countdown. So keep an eye out for it!

Epic Designs
Firstly, we have our designer Star back in the team! He is forever creating cool items for Chobots and has a lot of enthusiasm. However, some of the items he creates are inspired by your drawings! He loves them so keep posting on the forums and sending to support! Here are a few of my favourite items which have been designed recently..

Users rocking some new wing designs. The rainbow wings were designed by Art!

Game Night Review
Game Night was a blast! It brought the Chobots Community together and we all had a great time. There was competition in every game, however only the person in 1st place could win the prize!
However, before I reveal the winners of each game, here are some quotes from Chobots about yesterdays game night;

Game night was an awesome experience! I just love the idea that the moderators came up with, it's a nice challenge and a fun activity. -Vasa12345

It was awesome, really awesome. - Bacon

So, this is the moment of truth... here are the winners!

 

They won 5 days of citizenship, 

5000 bugs and a game controller!

March Journalists

Next up is this months journalists! Anyone can enter their blog as long as it's over a month old, they post regularly and they don't copy and paste posts from the Main Blog.

If you think you have what it takes to become a journalist, sign up your blog on the blog post.

Twinkle's Advice #3
Have you been applying for journalist for these past 2 months and not been successful? If so, then carry on reading! You are in the same boat as me because my blog has also been turned down twice. So, I will give you some tips on how you an do better.

First of all, it is pointless to give your blog in again if you haven't made any changes to it, because that's what the judges are looking out for; whether you have improved. If you don't know how you can improve, simply check out the current journalists to have an idea of what elements might have caught the judges eye.

Perhaps adding more pages or changing the layout of your posts will be a good idea. The main key is to make your blog original. For example, to keep my blog unique, I changed my blog name to 'ChoGossip'. Because I felt a cool, fresh blog name will make my blog sound interesting before someone has actually viewed it.

Agents Meeting
All you agents out there.. this is a message for you! There will be an Agents Meeting on Saturday, 16th March. You are not obliged to come, however those who come will be awarded with a special prize!
We will talk about all sorts x]
Hope to see you there.

That's all for now!
More fun posts are heading your way!

Saturday Fun and Games!

Howdy, Chobots!
It's me again, Swifter! Today, I'm here with yet more fantastic news.

Game Night
You all know 'Game Night', right?

Well, it will be taking place again on Saturday, March the 9th at 11PM Cho-Time! If you don't know what Game Night is, it's when all the games on Chobots are open to play as contests! There's only 1 winner per contest. So, you have to reach first place and stay there!

If you'd like to know how long we have left, keep your eyes on the timer below!

Careful - Moderators and Agents are always keeping a close eye out for cheaters. Anybody caught cheating will face disqualification.

Helpful tip
If you have already won a game in game night, make sure you play a different game this time! Because in order to qualify for 1st place, you must: Play fairly, and have not won in that specific game in previous game nights.

That's all for now,
More juicy gossip will be coming your way!

Game Night & Drawing Contest!

Howdy, Chobots!
Are you ready for another contest? I know I am! This one is a very interesting contest...

That's right! A drawing contest! But, in this contest; your drawings have to be done in the Chobots Underground! Isn't that just awesome? You can draw whatever you like, and submit as many entries as you want. The best drawing will win! You have until February 27th to submit your entries! If you're lost, and don't know where to put your entries, click here and leave the link to it in the comments. The winners will receive some amazing prizes. So, get drawin'!

Also, there's another even taking place TONIGHT, 23rd of February! It's called 'Game Night'. For those of you who don't know what Game Night is, it's basically a really fun event packed with all sorts of games you can take part in! But, it takes a lot of determination, because there's only 1 winner for each game. So, you have to go for that #1 spot, and stay there!

"How do I know what place I'm in?" Next to each game, there's a scoreboard!
All you have to do is hover your mouse over it, and a leaderboard will pop up. This will give you the positions, points and usernames of everyone from 10th, to 1st place. It will also tell you your score to help you see how much you need to get to a certain position.
Game Night is going to be a blast, so I hope to see you all there!

Remember - Moderators will be keeping an eye out for cheaters. And, if you are caught cheating, you WILL be disqualified!

Also, new updates on the blog! There's a new tab called 'Fun Stuff'. On this tab will be many fun Chobots related events and activites you can view! Just click on the 'Fun Stuff' tab at the top of the page or simply click here.

Thanks for reading my post, I hope you have lot's of fun competing, drawing or checking out the new updates on the blog!
Until next time,
-Swifter.

Game Night!

Hey Chos, guess what.. Game Night will be hosted today!
I'm sure you're all super excited for it.
For those who have never experienced Game Night, it is a competition hosted every fortnight by the Chobots Team. It is usually on a Saturday and what happens the competition boards for every game open up, meaning that winners in every game will win the top prize: Game Controller, Bugs and Citizenship.
It is a great way of keeping the community together and having lots of fun!

I can't wait! Be sure to check out all the games and then decide which game you will compete in at Game Night.

I'll put up some Game Night reviews and pictures up after the event in case any of you can't make it :)
