Ignore List Added!

It's kind of sad that there are bad players which make this feature necessary, but there is now an ignore list on WW! It is to the right of the Buddy list under the people section. If you choose to ignore somebody, you cannot see what they say.

St. Patrick's Day ONLY: St. Patrick!

St. Patrick can be found in the UK, beside the Big Ben tower. Here are the items:

1. At the Pet Park in Singapore, there is a green and yellow object above the furthest right smiling tree.
2. By the rafting game in Brazil, there is a big green leaf near the top on the left; through the indent, you can see a big green blob, which is the shamrock.
3. In the Pirates Cove near the entrance to the treasure room, there is a white line at the base of the ship's back sail; it's the scroll.
4. The housing inventory item is a leprechaun hat!

Final Amount Raised for Haiti

HERE is the original post by Aldric.


"Here are the final results of the Haiti donations!
We have achieved an admirable sum of US$589 from your selflessness and generosity, and to chip in to the effort, the development team of Wiglington and Wenks is also donating another US$300, making our total contribution US$889. Unknown to many of you - in the original US$589 - John Bittleston (the author of Wiglington and Wenks) donated US$200 too.
While it is not a lot of money - every little bit helps - and we can be proud of the fact that we have put in our sincere efforts to help Haiti. All of you contributed in one way or another - either through donating, through talking about the event, through tweeting or through praying.
This unfortunate calamity could have happened to any of us, and in times of darkness, we would certainly appreciate a helping hand. This time, you lent your helping hand to the victims of Haiti.
On behalf of Haiti and Wiglington and Wenks, I thank all of you for your support and kindness.
Let us all pray for the quake victims of Haiti and hope that they stay resilient and rebuild their lives.
The donation of US$889 will go to the HSI( Humane Society International) disaster relief funds. Once we receive the official receipt from HSI, we will be putting it up for all of us to remember this touching moment when all the players of Wiglington and Wenks united and contributed to help Haiti as one family, even though we are all from different countries, timezones and cultures.
Travel On!

Geeky Mouse Cinema & Other Updates

HERE is the original post on the official blog. We've already posted most of these, but some are new.


"Dear Quest Travelers,


Sorry that we’ve been quieter on the forums lately. Well, we have been very very busy squashing the bugs and making updates to The Travels of Wiglington and Wenks Virtual World :)
Some of you may have already noticed the updates, but just for the uninformed, here they are -


1. Geeky Mouse Cinema
Now you can view various videos from the cinema! Just scroll up and down to see the videos. We will be updating them periodically with original content we created or from our partners.
cinema
2. New Quest Travelers Guide
We now have a cool new button at the side of the virtual world screen that will link to a guide for Quest Travelers new to our virtual world!
new-quest-travelers-guide
3. Wiglington Town Guide
Wiglington now has a rotating question mark over his head, inviting new Quest Travelers to ask him general questions about our virtual world!
wiglington
4. Wiglington and Wenks New Landing Page
As there are many wonderful sections on Wiglington and Wenks besides the virtual world itself to discover and explore - like the Kids’ Forum and the WW Blog - we decided that we had to upgrade our landing page and change the look to provide more buttons and information. We understand that it may seem a little cluttered but unfortunately, we really have a lot to say and offer!
landing-page

5. Last but not least, we are working out various plans. They include -
- the selection of the Party Mod Trainees and working out a party schedule
- working out a schedule for our Mods to come on at specific times
- working out a schedule for Chee Yong, Galen, Aldric and Edrienne to come on at specific times
- the upcoming locations, historical people, games, quests, clothing, etc
- planning out a series of contests with attractive prizes
- and many many other features that will make your traveling experience in the World of Wiglington and Wenks just fantastic!
So during this time, if we are slightly quiet and slower to reply than usual, it’s because we are working super hard. But we can promise you that in time to come the main Staff members will meet you often on Wiglington and Wenks! :)
Travel On!"

The Mods of Wiglington and Wenks

THIS post tells all about the moderators.

"
Some of you may still not be familiar with our in-game moderators. So we’ve compiled their names and done up short writeups to introduce them. It might also give you Mod-wannabes what qualities we are looking for in Mods! :)

free online adventure games

The Chief - Trey
Trey has contributed much to the growth of Wiglington and Wenks. He was the first to make a post on our forum way back when we were still in our early development days. Trey gave us the boost we needed to start getting known and soon more people came to know about us. Trey has also been very active in helping us squash the bugs from the very start. Due to his significant contribution and his vast experience in virtual worlds, Trey current sits on top as the Chief Moderator to guide and lead the Mod team.
free online adventure games
Sheriff - mfruit and Daniel
Both mFruit and Daniel joined us since the Closed Beta stage.
mFruit is the brains behind the design of the Open and Closed Beta Hats. He has a flair for coming up with minimalistic designs that look both simple and GREAT at the same time. Back in the days when mFruit was not a Mod yet, he already exhibited Mod-like behavior by being very willing to help out new players and constantly contributing  designs of accessories and clothes.
Daniel constantly reminded everyone on the forums to stick to the rules and was always actively helping out even though he was not an official mod back then. He always looks after and gives good advice to new players and is well-liked by everyone.
free online adventure games
Trainee Scouts - Muffin, Clown, BIG, Shadow, Green
These are our latest Mods in training.
All of them have displayed great conviction and are strong supporters for WW who want WW to succeed just as much as we do. They have all contributed in their own special ways to help spearhead the growth of Wiglington and Wenks.
Muffin and Clown have always been happy and jovial chaps. Even in times of difficulties, they never seem to let it get in their way.
BIG and Shadow have always been extremely helpful, constantly on the run to help out new players.
Green - being a video making enthusiast - was one of the earlier pioneers who helped make WW videos and distributed them.
So there you go - the Mods of Wiglington and Wenks!
By the way - as Mods tend to be quite popular - please do not get upset with them if they are not able to accept your request to be friends. They may be either too busy or their buddy lists are already full. It’s nothing personal!"

Membership Perks

HERE is the post.

"free online adventure games

Hi Quest Travelers,

Some of you may be wondering what the perks of being a Member are.
After reviewing your requests and feed backs, we have come up with several perks to reward those who sign up with Wiglington and Wenks to be an Elite Quest Traveler (Member). This list will keep expanding as we improve and introduce more features.
Monthly Rewards
There will be 3000 rollars and 1000 WW Credits credited to our Members every month! This allows Members to gradually accumulate their game currencies so that they can spend on accessories and costumes!
Balloon Warz! Rooms
When this feature is fully launched (very soon!), Members will be able to play in special rooms as well as play longer in the rooms for more fun and Rollars! Members will be able to play in rooms up to 5 minutes and 10 minutes (ordinary Quest Travelers can only play up to 3 minutes)!
Mega Costumes and Mega Pets
There will be pets and costumes purchasable only by members at the Mega Costumes Store and an upcoming Mega Pet Store. At times, pre-sales will be held in these locations so that Members will be able to purchase costumes and pets months in advance prior to their actual release!
Special Locations
There will be special locations released along the way that only Members are able to gain access to. These means special quests, exclusive collectibles, unique costumes, games and items available exclusively to Members!
For a full list of the Member perks, click here.
But this does not mean we will be forgetting our non-Members. We will always have something for both non-Members and Members, but we will need to give those extra perks to Members so we won’t go broke and can continue making Wiglington and Wenks the best virtual world for kids ever!
