I have my pioneer pet SO CLOSE to graduating and attaining that Diploma.... This extra class per day will cut the time left in half... I look at it this way:
Use the extra class on whichever pet is the furthest (Level 10 preferably). Like I said I have the one pet who has two more courses to complete to get his diploma. He has the same number of classes left in each of these courses.
Right now he's got exactly 14 days to complete them. I was thinking two weeks' time and he will be through. But with the addition of the extra class, I will get to complete 7 more days extra per course because I'm taking turns on these two. So instead of 14 days, I'm looking at another week and a day. Also when he graduates, he will knock the class time down to the minimum number for everybody else!
Then I move onto my pet entering Agility Level 10.... PERFECT TIME to have an additional attempt at those miserable levels   Originally Posted by KLDKinzMom But I agree on the font for the intelligence class. I liked the old font better.

I think somewhere along the update, this was reset (because the font that's in there now is a default font), and I expect to see it get changed back shortly. | | | 08-07-2009, 10:14 AM | #12 | Webkinz :) Join Date: Feb 2008 Posts: 100 | Re: NEW Deluxe Button for Kinzville Academy!! I completely agree. I am using the extra class to finish up classes that help me move other pets through the classes faster and then I will help all of my pets graduate. I am so excited about having this extra button!
I have enough pets taking classes to complete each class for 4 pets. Once 4 pets have completed the class, the minimum number of classes will be needed for my other pets to take the class. I also find that it is easier to perfect my skills for each class with 4 pets working on a class at one time.
What a great addition to have at the academy! Chaz | | | 08-07-2009, 11:10 AM | #13 | Back in School! Webkinz :) Join Date: Jan 2008 Posts: 897 | Re: NEW Deluxe Button for Kinzville Academy!! Best. Bonus. EVER! (Well, right up there with the bonus job option, definitely). Seriously, I love this so much I can't stand it. 
I've got a couple of my sister's pets that are just so close to graduating that even getting there a couple days sooner is just so awesome! And my sister got to put through my first graduate last night and will finish a second tonight (after midnight), so I can finally catch up to her (she's got 2 graduates already). Sooo happy to see the finish line.  | | | 08-07-2009, 11:48 AM | #14 | Webkinz :) Join Date: Jan 2008 Posts: 733 | Re: NEW Deluxe Button for Kinzville Academy!! Great accomplishement, JuniperBerry. I know when I get that close, I will be happy I won't be able to stand myself!

I think somewhere along the update, this was reset (because the font that's in there now is a default font), and I expect to see it get changed back shortly. You and I think alike! I'm taking the extra classes on all my level 10 classes with the preference on agility when my oldest son is around as he isn't always able to take the class every day. Yesterday before the update, my son needed 3 classes to finish off his agility and because of the new button, my oldest son was able to finish his class for him today. My youngest is so very happy!
I really hope you are right about the font and that it will be corrected soon. I'm still able to finish the class quickly but my friend is really struggling with the change and failed her class today. | | | 08-07-2009, 11:50 AM | #16 | Gifted Join Date: Sep 2007 Posts: 1,885 | Re: NEW Deluxe Button for Kinzville Academy!!

One other thing I did notice last night was it appears that they've fixed the double gift box problem. There's no pop up box to announce you've passed a level anymore, and then no box to announce you've received a gift box at the end of Level 10. It was actually a little disconcerting at first, because I'm so used to seeing the popup at then end of each level. But I won't miss all the confusion the multiple gift boxes brought. | | |  | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | | | Thread Tools | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off
