Wizard101: Time Warp




In this article we will look through the major, revolutionizing changes to Wizard101.



In October 2008, pay to zones were introduced. This revolutionized the way some people play the game. It allowed them to be able to play at their leisure and not have to worry about their sub ending in a month



In January 2009, Dragonspyre was introduced and we fought Malistare! Also, new starter wands were created for new characters. 
In March 2009, the shared bank was introduced to the game. Also, Zeke moved from his old Olde Town spot to the point we know of today
In April 2009, the quest arrow was introduced so we wouldn't get lost in massive areas or dungeons!
In May 2009, a variety of houses were introduced. Also, the game added voiceovers - which gave the game a totally different environment that everyone enjoyed. Just imagine it without it! Lastly, marks were added so you could mark and return to a selected location. 
In July 2009, the lovable gruff bears of Grizzleheim were added to the Spiral. 
In October 2009, mounts were introduced to the Spiral. The mounts sparked all the quirky ones we have now. Also, the crown shop was introduced to the game, and Zeke no longer sold the items in it.

                                                          

In September 2010, Selena Gomez took a quick jaunt the spiral and with her came a new quest. 
In October 2010, Celestia was introduced to the cast of worlds! The cap was raised to 60, and along with that, the schools star, moon and sun were introduced.
In December 2010, gardening was introduced to the spiral. It was a way to get snacks and regents for free or very little money!


In May 2011, Wintertusk became an extension to Grizzleheim. The new level 58 spell quests were introduced alongside.  
In August 2011, Wysteria was introduced with it's little snotty pigs and elegant headmistress. Teleporters were also introduced, which allowed connections to more than one house. 
In September 2011, Zafaria was introduced and the cap was raised to 70.


In May 2012, Avalon was introduced with it's regal creatures and elegant music. The cap was raised to 80 and new pets were introduced to hop along ours side.
In November 2012, Azteca hurled itself into the spiral with it's looming comet and Morgranthe. The cap was raised to 90.


In August 2013, the world of dungeons Aquila strolled along. New minions for all the schools came along with it.

That's it so far! We hope to see this game expand alongside this list! Thank you, and make sure to follow us on Twitter @SGeographic.

Interview with housing extraordinaire, Paige Moonshade!


(Click the banner to see Paige's amazing fansite!)

Hey guys! Paige Moonshade was nice enough to do an interview with Spiral's Geographic Society - a new, but improving fansite! We will have an interview weekly if we can get volunteers. This interview will revolve around Paige Moonshade, housing extraordinaire! We will ask her questions regarding her love for housing, and how it feels like to handle being a moderator and an official fansite owner. Enjoy!

1. Most of the people on your fansite recognize you as a Housing Extraordinaire. Where did this profound love for housing come from?

Paige Moonshade:  I have always had a love of decorating. Online gaming made that love even stronger. From fancy detailed houses to the basics of storage/garden houses. I dunno, I can remember rearranging my bedroom all the time as a kid. 

2. You're a moderator on both Wizard101 Central and Pirate101 Central, and an official fansite owner. How do you manage to run smoothly on all 3, and does it get a little hectic?

Paige Moonshade: Oh boy what a loaded question! Wizard101 Central was the very first site I ever check out for game information. I have always considered Wizard101 Central and Now Pirate101 Central my in-game home. I got into blogging after because I wanted to do more. A friend told em about blogging and I found The Friendly Necromancers. I started out pretty rough but once i made my first housing post it was history I found my spot.

3. When you logged into Twitter and realized you had 2,000 followers (congratulations!), how did you react? How long did it take you to accumulate all of these fans?

Paige Moonshade:  You should of seen me hit 1000. I'm still so very humbled by all my fans . When one of them told me I was at 1980 I was in shock. Simply amazed. Thank you so much everyone. You mean so much to me.

4.  We recognize you're a fan of both Wizard101 and Pirate101. If you could see something added to both games (a world, a companion, a piece of gear) what would it be? 

Paige Moonshade: Wow. Wizard101 more animated/interactive furniture, any new furniture is always something I'm looking for. Pirate101 I would love some mannequins, also Ship to ship pvp sounds really fun.

5. We know you're the first to get hands on when any housing update comes in - what is something you would like to see added to the housing part of the game? Do you think Pirate101 will get a gardening alternative, maybe fishing?

Paige Moonshade: Fishing! I would love fishing instead of gardening for Pirate101.

6. Lastly, is there anything you'd like to say to your fans?

Paige Moonshade: Thank you! Never stop being you. Thank you all so much ((hugs)). You make me feel so honored to know each of you.
