The Forum is back + more news!

Bonjour mes amis!

I'm happy to announce that the Forum is finally back! YAY!

You can access it by CLICKING HERE or simply go to Chotopia's main website and follow the link at the top. I can't wait to see you guys there!

I would also like to congratulate Enhance on their promotion to Agent! WOOT! Enhance was hand picked by the administration to become an Agent and I am sure they are going to do an amazing job! CONGRATS!

Furthermore, visiting the Agents page I noticed that Agent101 is no longer on the list, which is sad. I hope everything is alright with him.

In other news, the Easter design is finally complete! HURRAY!

Enjoy it for the whole month of April and don't forget to give me your opinion in the comments section. I always like to read what you guys think.

Until then, this is Omi signing out!

Are you an Agent?

Because if you are, this post is for you! But if you're not, keep reading because there is still something for you! HEHEHE

Bonjour mes amis!

If you are an Agent there is currently a meeting that is taking place in a few days.

For those of you who can't see the picture:

March 31st

9PM Cho Time

Agent HQ - Utopia

Agents are encouraged to attend as there will be many important topics to be discussed. As promised, for those of you who are not Agents, there is probably going to be an Underground party right after the meeting, so you are also encouraged to attend. You obviously don't want to miss it!

I also want to congratulate Simplexi for winning the Spot the Difference Contest. CONGRATS!

As always, since there will probably be a party after the meeting, I will post the banner on the sidebar.

Until then, this is Omi signing out!

So many things to announce!

Bonjour mes amis!

WOW! These couple of days have been hectic! I have so many things to say that I wonder if I can cover them all in a clean and short post. I will certainly try! Meanwhile, this is what you'll find in today's blog post:

• Comic contest winner
• New contest
• New party
• Agency
• A look at March's Citizenship item: the Luigi costume
• New UI (User Interface)

Comic contest winner

The winner of the comic contest has been Knighty! CONGRATULATIONS!

He has won 10 days of Citizenship, 10,000 Bugs and a comic! Very good job!

New contest: St. Patrick's day fashion contest!

For this new contest we will have to call our inner Donatella Versace, Mark Jacobs, Coco Chanel and Ralph Lauren, because this contest is all about fashion!

There are some very specific rules, so I encourage you to CLICK HERE to read them all and submit your entry. GOOD LUCK!

New party

You certainly can't miss this party! If you can't see the image, the text says:

• DATE: March 16th
• TIME: 9PM Cho time
• CITY: Chocolate
• PLACE: Park

I certainly hope to see all of you there! As always, I will have this banner posted on the sidebar.

Agency

Let's all give a round of applause to Brian1king and Jaydee, our newest Agents! I know you guys are going to do an amazing job!

CONGRATULATIONS!

Luigi costume

As I told you last time, my Citizenship renewed yesterday, and here is the Luigi costume!

It works like any other suit, so you can't have anything else on, or else it will be taken away.

New UI

The old disc UI has now been replaced with a more space friendly UI. If you head over to the game you'll notice that the interacting buttons are now located throughout the sides of the game.

Remember to vote in the poll at the main blog to let the team know what you think about it!

Newest Agent poll!

Bonjour mes amis!

The time has come again to vote for a new Agent! This time the list is smaller, hosting only five (5) candidates compared to the eight (8) from last time.

The complete list of candidates goes like this:

• Brian1king, reprising his candidacy from last time
• Enhance
• Jaydee
• Omiguy (ME!), also reprising my role as candidate
• Vegas

Once you've casted your vote you should get a confirmation like the one below. Remember that cheating will get you disqualified, so don't forget about the golden rule: honesty is the best policy. 

Thank you to the Chotopia team for selecting me as a candidate. I'm really humbled to be considered worthy for the position. The ballot will close on March 12th so be sure to cast your vote before then.

I want to wish everyone good luck and may the odds be ever in your favor!

Third month of the year brings three types of news!

Bonjour mes amis!

March is the third month of the year, and it is only logical that I give you three different types of news so that we obtain a bonanza of number "threes"

1. New job openings!

Click to enlarge

The Chotopia team is currently looking for new moderators (precisely 1 to 2 of them), so if you meet the requirements head over to the Jobs page (which you can also access by CLICKING HERE) and apply for a position.

They are also looking for temporary testers for the new mobile app. So if you love helping in any way you can, this is the position for you!

2. New Agent poll coming soon!

Once again the team is on the lookout for possible candidates to participate in the poll. This time, however, things are going to be a little different. If you head over to THIS POST you will be able to post a comment recommending no more than two (2) Chobots to participate in the Agent poll.

The two users who receive the most votes will participate in the poll alongside other Chobots selected by the team. You are also prohibited from nominating yourself.

3. Drawing contest winner!

For our last topic, I want to give huge congratulations to Honey for wining the drawing contest! Way to go! The prizes were:

• 10 days of Citizenship
• A paintbrush
• Valentine's jet pack

I also wish to congratulate Magicman for being the runner up, winning 5 days of Citizenship and a paintbrush! Nice work guys!

So tell me, what do you think about all this? Are you going to recommend someone for the Agent poll? Are you planning on applying for a job? Don't hesitate to tell me in the comments section below.

Until then, this is Omi signing out!

Meet our new Agent!

Bonjour mes amis!

Let's give a big round of applause to the great Agent101 who has become our newest Agent! WOOHOO!

The team has not made an official announcement, but I went to his playercard and saw that he was already given his Agent badge.

And although the team had said that more than one Agent was going to be selected, I checked Sony's and Bebot's playercard, who gained second and third place respectively, but neither of them had the badge.

Furthermore, the Agent page only features Agent101 as you can see below:

Therefore, I am assuming that the only Agent selected has been him.

Which is why I want to congratulate him on this magnificent achievement. I know that you're going to do a fantastic job as Agent.

Until then, this is Omi signing out!

Once a week you will compete, let's gather around for Agency!

Bonjour mes amis!

Pay close attention because the information in this post is very important!

First off, let's talk about the weekly competitions that are about to begin very soon. Starting on January 7th there will be a WEEKLY competition in Chotopia. Say what?!

Yes, you read that right. Throughout the month of January the competitions in the game will only last one week. Furthermore, only the first place in the scoreboard will receive a reward, so it will definitely be a little more difficult to win. Omi are you serious?

YES I AM! Not only that, but I also heard that the same person CANNOT win more than once! That means that more people will have a chance at the amazing goodies that the staff will give the winners. YIPPIE!

The schedule is as follows:

• January 7th- Sliders Competition Sweetbattle Competition
• January 14th- Cow Mission Competition
• January 21st- Asteroid Competition
• January 28th- Nichos Mission Competition

If this turns out to be a good move, the team might extend the weekly competitions to February too! So take your starting positions and let the race begin!

In other news, the team wants to inform everybody that because there are only two (2) Agents in Chotopia right now, they will be looking actively for new additions to the group. It is important to remember that Agents are special Chobots that are always looking to improve the game. Whether it is by searching for rule breakers or looking out for the general well-being of the game, Agents are there to offer support to the staff.

The team will select one Chobot to become an Agent and another group to be part of a poll. This poll will consist of players that the staff believe can make a good impact if they become Agents. Furthermore, more than one winner from the poll could be selected to become Agent, so be ready!

Until then, this is Omi signing out!
