Welcome to Fantage Plaza!

Hi! Welcome to Fantage Plaza! New here? Read this post prior to beginning your adventure!

Introduction

Fantage Plaza is a blog set up like a mall, plaza, market– whatever you want to call it (despite some stores being not what you’d find in a mall). Each page represents a different store and/or service provided. This way, it’s like a virtual world in itself.

Despite it’s unique setup, Fantage Plaza is like all other Fantage blogs– you receive updates, tricks, and cheats. But there’s one additional thing you receive that most other blogs lack– services.

Fantage Plaza is a user-friendly blog and is always glad to accept feedback. To contact us, please visit the Management Office. To continue reading this post, which is highly recommended for new visitors, click “Continue reading →” below!

Absence Explanation– and possible new blog!

Hello! Pollee here! Wow, I haven’t posted in a trillion years. I just popped by to say that I’m so sorry! I’m sixteen and school is really driving me crazy, and I’m also a competitive ballerina, so that requires a lot of practice. But recently, I’ve been looking at lots of Fantage blogs and I really feel bad about ditching Fantage and viewers who were relying on blogs I worked on for updates. I’ve decided that I MIGHT make a fresh, new blog and start updating. It won’t be a permanent affair at all, but I feel bad and I miss blogging.

So, what do you think?

-Pollee

P.S.: please reblog this. I’m feeling quite alone 😦

EDIT: I’ve made my blog! Check it out at http://fantagefollower.wordpress.com

Liebster Blog Award

Hey guys! I’m pretty sure you’ve all heard about the Fantage Liebster Blog Award someway or the other. Thank you so much to cloud82 for nominating me for this award.

Okay, so in case you don’t know how exactly this works (like me a couple days ago), here are the rules:

The Liebster Award is awarded to bloggers with under 200 followers to try to promote their blog a little and also bring together a community of bloggers. The rules of the competition are as follows:
• The nominated user must provide a link bank to the person who nominated them.
• Provide 11 facts about yourself.
• Answer 11 questions set by the person who nominated you.
• Choose 11 more people and ask them 11 questions.

Like I said before, cloud82 nominated me.

• The nominated user must provide a link bank to the person who nominated them. ✔

Okay, so here are 11 facts about myself.

1. I’ve lived in 2 different states (in the United States) in my life.
2. I go to a private school.
3. I love drawing and swimming.
4. I was obsessed with Webkinz in 2nd grade.
5. Unfortunately, I have a problem with procrastinating. I eventually get all my work done though.
6. I started playing Fantage in November 2011 (the same month Cool Cat Hair was released, but I don’t remember that).
7. My first favorite color was blue. Then it changed to pink, then purple, then blue and green, and now turquoise.
8. I love Skittles. Especially the sour ones.
9. Right now, the song “All of Me” is stuck in my head. I like pop songs the best.
10. I love Pinterest and DIY projects.
11. I like Sprite and Coke mixed together better than either one alone or any other soda.

• Provide 11 facts about yourself. ✔

Here are the questions asked by cloud82 and my answers to them. Phew, this was so much easier than making up my own facts.

1. Fantage or WordPress? WordPress allows for more creativity. Fantage is more interactive. Hmm, this is hard. I’ll go with WordPress.
2. Converse or Vans? Converse. I really like the white ones but too many girls have it at school.
3. Favorite word, and why? I don’t really have a favorite word.
4. Would you accept these free tickets to Japan? Of course! I love traveling, and I’ve never been to Japan before. 🙂
5. When will you stop blogging? This summer or next summer.
6. Thoughts on Tumblr? I don’t really use it, but it seems pretty mainstream.
7. Do you use Picmonkey? why or why not? When editing, I use PicMonkey, Preview, and PowerPoint. None of them are good enough to stand alone. If they are, too many people already use it. Wow, so many p’s.
8. If you had unlimited money, what would you do with it? I’d donate an unlimited amount to charity, go on vacations every weekend, buy a new outfit everyday, and give unlimited amounts to some people.
9. What are your thoughts on Vintage Gold? I don’t really like it, but I guess it solves the problem of scamming on Trade n’ Sell. I mean, if Fantage targets young kids, then they can’t risk being sued by an angry parent, right?
10. You’re home alone and you hear a strange noise. What do you do? It depends on the sound. Maybe go see what it is, or call my parents or the police.
11. What do you wish for? I can’t tell, or else my wishes won’t come true.

Happy Earth Day!

It’s April 22nd, and that means that it’s EARTH DAY!

After reading this post, go outside and enjoy the fresh air. This Earth Day, think about the planet, really, because it’s just a circle hanging in the middle of the universe and we are so lucky to have it! Apparently, Fantage doesn’t think we need to acknowledge Earth Day, so there’s no event, as far as I can tell. Here are some ways to protect our Earth.

 

• hug a tree
• spend a day without electronics
• use both sides of the paper
• donate to WWF (a wildlife charity)visit their Canadian site by clicking the word WWF
• take shorter showers
• walk to school/work instead of driving.
• close taps while you’re brushing your teeth
• reuse, reduce, recycle, compost and donate instead of throwing away
• remember how lucky we are!

Lots of love,

 

Pollee

April Fool’s Day Event–Deluxe Preview

Hey, guys! I’ve decided that since I’m so busy, I’m not ever going to do full blog posts about the events, but it wouldn’t be right to just let the events fly past, so I will be doing DELUXE EVENT PREVIEWS, which give you a brief, advertisement about the event. It will be written like a movie preview, so, imagine it’s a video. 

 

The one day of the year where everything gets messed up…

The day of crazy heights, the day of cool, free items…

Fantage’s new event…

April Fools’ Day! Coming soon to you!

 

 

 

Leaving… forever?

Hey, guys, I’ve decided to quit blogging, forever. I’m sorry.

The Evolution of Virtual Worlds

Hi guys!

I’m so sorry for my inactivity. First of all, school has kept me so busy. Second of all, I found a new virtual game that I like much better than Fantage. It seems to me like the new virtual worlds keep improving, while the older ones begin to lose their charm… anyone else feel this way?

This is my virtual world history…

First, there was Poptropica. All little kids loved this game, where you could travel to exotic islands and become the hero and be rewarded with a shiny, gold medallion. Best part was that parents and teachers considered it educational!

Second, there was Webkinz. Stuffed animals + virtual worlds + games + friends= lots of fun for younger players! Like Poptropica, it was considered educational, but the kids playing it never felt that way!

Third, there was Fantage. The best part about this game was that there was constantly something new to blog about, but I didn’t begin blogging until late in my 2nd year of playing it. Now that it’s been three years of playing it, it just doesn’t appeal to me anymore.

Before and after Fantage, there was Pico World. This game was so much fun, I can’t even express it in words. I can’t believe I forgot about it in my first version of this post. In fall of 2012, it closed due to lack of staff, and I was back to playing Fantage. There’s a Japanese version, but unfortunately I am not Japanese and do not understand their language.

Fourth, there was Transformice. Mice, cheese, and shamans! I tried this briefly, and I loved it for the short time that I played! Shortly after I started, I discovered a new game that I honestly didn’t like much at first, but I began liking it quickly.

Fifth, there was ?. Really, I just don’t want to get anyone unwillingly addicted– at least not yet. It’s a virtual world obviously, and you get your own home and avatar. You can earn coins and gems, so much more easily than you can earn eCoins on Fantage. There’s a shop similar to Trade n’ Sell, and there are limited items and mystery boxes that you can get. There are hundreds of games available for you to play, and you can level up your avatar from playing this. There’s also a fun trick to level up, and it’s not exactly a cheat since it’s acknowledged by the staff. You can also add friends, hold events, dance, shop (they let you try on things before buying them!), and so much more! I’m not going to tell you which game it is yet… does anybody have any guesses?

Enough of games for now. I’d like to mention some things not related to virtual worlds:

• Shoutout to pollee! I’m amazed by how much devotion she has shown to this blog! Thanks so much!
• Has anyone seen Divergent yet? I went with my friends yesterday and I loved it 😀
• Did the WordPress interface change recently? I noticed this while adding the hyperlinks… To me, it seems kind of iOS 7-ish. Not bad, just different.

Anniversary and News!

Hi, guys! Today was my WordPress Anniversary of one year. I joined a full year ago, wow! I also realized something. I joined because I LOVE blogging! And here I am, part of the best blog ever, not even DOING anything! I decided that I want to change that, by posting more. I will be writing the event posts, and every time there’s a Fantage update, I will be doing that.

Also, candy and I have a big surprise for you guys, so get ready, you’ll love it!

Home At Last!

Hi, guys! I’ve arrived home safely! Hurray!

However, when I arrived home, my laptop was broken, and we took it to the shop. It was proclaimed “physically damaged” and sent away to be examined, but they gave us a free, temporary one. The temporary computer is not the same, however, and is harder to type on. I’m very thankful that they lent us this computer, and I’ll be able to blog regularly again.

Yay!

Ads Begone!

UPDATE (3/5/14): This does not work with the ads that have “Want to Skip This Ad?” or “Game Will Start After This Ad” at the top. Sorry!

Hey guys!

I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one frustrated with Fantage’s new ads on the sidebar and before games. Seriously, trying to play Bobo Fish while your page is constantly refreshing for new sidebar ads is not fun. Neither is waiting 2 1/2 minutes to play a 30 second game just so you can complete the new Cosmic Bingo. Thankfully, I’ve found out a way to eliminate the wait time for the pre-game ads.

Honestly, the trick is so simple most of you probably figured it out. I don’t even know if I should call it a trick. But for those of you who are a bit slower in devising these tricks (like me!), here it is!

We all watch videos on Youtube, right? So I’m pretty sure we’ve all skipped to parts of the video before. You can do the same for these pre-game ads!

Go from this:

To this in one click:

And in three seconds of watching an ad fade into darkness, to this:

I’m not sure if this works for the eCoin ads, because (last time I checked) they require you to watch the whole video for the entire length.

Sorry if you figured this out a long time ago! I’m just excited because *finally* I won’t have to wait 5 times the game’s duration to watch an ad.

New Author Introduction

If you couldn’t already tell from the title of this post, I’m the new author here at Fantage Plaza! My name is Pollee and you might know me from some of the blogs I’ve worked on previously, or from the Fantageville xat chat, where I work as a moderator. 

I would say that I’m quite a responsible, mature person and I’m very friendly and open, so feel free to contact me for help, or if you want to chat. I like proper grammar and photography and shopping and I’m also interested in journalism and creative writing. I’m a competitive dancer as well.

I’m just positive that I’ll have a splendid time working here. I am writing this post from my iPad, because my family is traveling, but I’ll be back and ready to attack in four days, tops. When I post, I’ll try to use pink writing so you can identify me.

So much love to each and every one of you,

~pollee~
