Megs (meganlikesbooks) | 376 comments Teresa, that message kind of scared me. I haven't had any drama, but who knows if that has gone through my captain or something. I am hving fun though, so I guess that's all that counts.

I hope you are enjoying wobble as well. So far it's been a bit intense, but also lots of fun for me.

Diane ~Firefly~ | 2438 comments Wow, I didn't even realize they sent a message until I read these comments. For some reason it didn't show in my email.

But it was surprising as these challenges are supposed to be fun!


message 6953: by Kelly (new)

Kelly (ladykatala) | 5020 comments Wheel-a-thon is coming out soon. Each of the games has very different moods to them so hopefully it resets everyone back to sanity :)

I have magic spreadsheets. And they're almost working! Yay!

Cathy M. (mccathy77) | 5976 comments You ARE a genius with the spreadsheets, Kelly! I want to be like you :)

Sarah | 3273 comments I am trolling Cathy. Hello everyone. I am not even doing this challenge, but I am on WOBBLE teams - a flying squirrel thank you very much... and am up way past my bedtime - taking a reading break. Saw some posts here that may explain our lovely email today. Now gonna investigate to see what all the drama is about. Ta ta for now.


message 6956: by Sarah (new)

Sarah | 3273 comments Well that was uneventful - no drama here.


message 6957: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (rebeccasg) | 3799 comments Oh no I'm sorry there's drama!! That's so hard for the mods to deal with cause they're already putting so much into this very intricate challenge.

Wheel a thon is awesome I hope everyone will get back into the fun spirit!

I'm gonna be trolling around the WOBBLE boards whenever I have extra time at work. Not being able to listen to audiobooks at work is killing me.


message 6958: by Kelly (new)

Kelly (ladykatala) | 5020 comments We also have some fun stuff we're talking about for launching after wobble is over. So there's lots of excitement ahead :)

✓. Birds of a Feather Probably Can't Fly Well Reward: 4 Experience and a bird friend. Your befriended bird will come visit every Sunday and leave behind 1 Bird Feather. You may feed him again during the week to receive extra feathers. DONE 19/7/16

How do the extra feathers work? Both on same day? One day apart?

You can get the extra one right after you feed him. It won't change the normal sunday delivery.

Reva (revans) | 2481 comments Thanks. Just getting my Ducks in a row (LOL) for all the spells. Can we expect to use some spells by this coming update?

I'm hoping so. I may even release one of the other elements too. I'd like to get base spells of all the elements out soon.

I'm still wrapped up in wobble spreadsheets right now but all willing that wraps up tomorrow afternoon so that gives me about a week to do rpg :)

Are we ever going to see Advanced Training for Puppies?


message 6964: by LaLine (new)

LaLine | 411 comments I'm really enjoying this latest update here. But sometimes I have a hard time dividing my attention between here and Wobble. Glad my wobble team hasn't had any drama. It's been fun and I'm looking forward to the Wheel-a-thon segment. But I'm more excited that I'm so close to getting my phoenix!


message 6965: by Reva (new)

Reva (revans) | 2481 comments With my mom back in hospital I haven't had much success in putting together a proper emporium offering, HOWEVER I do have a miscellaneous assortment of books that might help those putting together BARNS, GARDENS, FEEDING BIRD FRIENDS, Phoenixes, KITCHEN-TWO, BAUBLES, BEDS ETC.

Any requests for Monday and onwards?

Cathy Galloway | 878 comments Sorry to hear about your mom Reva.


message 6967: by Cathy M. (new)

Cathy M. (mccathy77) | 5976 comments Hope for a speedy recovery for your mom Reva! Hang in there :)

Do have a request for a book with a bird please! Can't seem to find any short ones or ones I feel like reading right now...


message 6968: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (rebeccasg) | 3799 comments Hope your mom is doing better Reva!!

Does anyone have a recommendation for a "book with a metal in the title or series". All the ones of mine that fit I've already read.


message 6969: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (rebeccasg) | 3799 comments Also for doors on a cover....does it have to be clearly defined doors? Or can it just be a building that implies there are doors we may not see well?

You have to be able to see the doors.

Ok thanks!

Also for the horses/rabbits mentioned...does it have to be a rabbit physically in the book? Or would something like "this is a good place for rabbits" count?


message 6972: by Kelly (new)

Kelly (ladykatala) | 5020 comments If it wants something in the book it should be specific and present in the scene. If it just wants the word then it can be a passing type of comment.


message 6973: by Reva (last edited Jul 27, 2016 10:40AM) (new)

Reva (revans) | 2481 comments Whoohoo! Thunderbolt and Whirlwind spells done and dusted. Will we be needing more peas and carrots? ie should I continue planting the garden?


message 6974: by Kelly (new)

Kelly (ladykatala) | 5020 comments Spells will be used for the next phase :)


message 6975: by Reva (new)

Reva (revans) | 2481 comments Understood, but will we be using peas/carrots for anything else?


message 6976: by Morgan (new)

Morgan (faeriesfolly) | 522 comments You will continue to be able to use spells against upcoming monsters too so there's that?

I don't know if you're meaning "outside of the phases" or if you mean anything else as far as using them for combat AND for something like cooking.


message 6977: by Kelly (new)

Kelly (ladykatala) | 5020 comments Right now I expect them to be used just for spells. I'm open to doing something else with them.

But new monsters will be much easier with the appropriate spells.

I've already grown and used the 3 sets of peas and carrots to qualify as a caster of the Whilrlwind spell.

My question to Kelly, given that the garden is repeatable, was whether she was planning to use peas and carrots for any future quests especially since the August update approaches.

Since it appears that it's a distant possibility, I'll hold off.


message 6979: by Kelly (new)

Kelly (ladykatala) | 5020 comments I'll try to have a big august update. I have some plans already.


message 6980: by Reva (new)

Reva (revans) | 2481 comments Cool. I could use some big monsters to kill. I'm close to leveling up so I wouldn't mind resetting my HP after a big battle. ;-)


message 6981: by Kelly (new)

Kelly (ladykatala) | 5020 comments I'm thinking a series of monsters or something. 4 Horsemen of the apocalypse, the 7 dwarves, something like that :P

message 6984: by Kelly (new)

Kelly (ladykatala) | 5020 comments Maybe Zombie hoard.... I could do a whole series of zombies... this could be fun


message 6985: by Reva (new)

Reva (revans) | 2481 comments Lex Luthor and his gang?


message 6986: by Kelly (new)

Kelly (ladykatala) | 5020 comments Tempting. I wanted to do the super hero team challenge at one point so I still have idea's off of that.

There's probably a few months worth of stuff here.

I like the idea of a chain of monsters that gets progressively harder since then everyone can participate up to a certain point.


message 6987: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca (rebeccasg) | 3799 comments I love all the monster possibilities! I am always impressed by your creativity with the monsters.


message 6988: by Daphne (new)

Daphne (daphnesm) | 937 comments I have a question - Once we've gotten and cast the spell 3 times and have learned it, do we need to do the quests for the supplies EACH time we want to cast in battle?


☼♎ Carmen the Bootyshaker Temptress ☼♎ | 7238 comments Hi everyone. I've been trying to get all my books in the right place before updating my thread but I noticed there's no GC available :( oh well I'll keep writing and then post what I have. I've been bouncing between reading, updating and have an awesome time with Wobble. That took some major thinking. Great job Mods! A lot of reading getting done and more to add to my RPG :D

From my understanding, you'd need the ingredients to continue to cast it.


message 6991: by Alyssa (new)

Alyssa Lane What's GC.?


☼♎ Carmen the Bootyshaker Temptress ☼♎ | 7238 comments Gift card. Sorry I'm so used to abbreviating

Hmmm. Maybe we'll release some more soon. :)

That's not the impression I got when I asked Kelly about needing more peas/carrots and continuing to plant the garden.

Kelly just confirmed it above:

Kelly wrote: "Daphne wrote: "I have a question - Once we've gotten and cast the spell 3 times and have learned it, do we need to do the quests for the supplies EACH time we want to cast in battle?"

Yes."


That's why I was confused earlier as to why you wouldn't want to continue planting, since that spell might come in handy for upcoming monsters as well as those items potentially having other uses in future (because we never know and Kelly is good at surprising us with new stuff).

I plan on having a little stockpile set aside once I'm done with my training runs.

You'll need the same reagents for any further use of the spell in actual battles (next phase and then with new monsters later). Because certain monsters will have differing vulnerabilities to the different spells as she'd stated earlier here when the spells were introduced.

I think Gift Card?


☼♎ Carmen the Bootyshaker Temptress ☼♎ | 7238 comments That would be greatly appreciated Kelly ;)

I see the reply above from Kelly just said that we do need new supplies for each cast. I couldn't tell for sure the way it was worded. Any chance we can get those spells/quests reworded so it's super clear that we need to complete the quests/collect the supplies for each cast?

Otherwise I imagine half the folks won't and half the folks will, and that's a big difference in abilities. :)


message 7000: by Kelly (new)

Kelly (ladykatala) | 5020 comments Will do.

I'm planning on having uses for spells (and probably a new spell) in the August update.
