Personally I would like to see more games that capitalize on skill (or adjustments to current games - like cooking making you move faster in pizza palace or something). One of the many hats I wear is that of an educator, and from that standpoint I approve of the academy because it not only teaches your webbie but also the kid behind the mouse, be it motor skills, linguistic skills, memory, or problem solving. and having the motivation to go because it pays off for a game is a good idea in my book. __________________ Eeyore loves you, Blotch is thrilled he is going to be a POTM.

I did it today with 18 seconds left in the game. It is in no way an "impossible to beat unless you have exceptional stats" type game. It just makes it a bit easier. So not impossible... it just helps, which is a good reward system. "If it's hard go to KA!" is a good idea, also gives you more incentive to up your stats so winning in the stadium is a more achievable goal. And the items you get from hitting level 10... and the new moves you learn @ level 5.....
So what's the complaint about the KA aspect of the game again? | | | 04-15-2009, 05:43 AM | #4 | Webkinz :) Join Date: Jan 2009 Posts: 204 | Re: Some of us got cheated I feel cheated because none of my pets that have level 10 stats in KA can do the Rally game. One pet can't jump and the game just hangs with the other. __________________ This pizza is a symphony of flavor! | | | 04-15-2009, 11:16 AM | #5 | Gifted Join Date: Oct 2008 Posts: 1,289 | Re: Some of us got cheated  Originally Posted by iamnotanumber I feel cheated because none of my pets that have level 10 stats in KA can do the Rally game.

Forgot to say that all the other glitches and the fact you can't get the trophy is a cheat!! LOL. They need to fix the game badly. But besides all the glitches/bugs/errors I think the game in itself is well thought out.... it was just lousy execution on Ganz' part | | | 04-25-2009, 05:18 PM | #6 | zozo475 Webkinz :) Join Date: May 2008 Posts: 2,195 | Re: Some of us got gipped  Originally Posted by harveeyore I actually have to disagree, I think its a wonderful idea, because it rewards you for spending your time and KC on the academy. besides you are only playing against yourself in the arcade. so winning should be defined as beating your high score.

I also think this idea is brilliant, because I soon realized that doing classes everyday for my pet wouldn't do me any good, because I don't like the prizes, and I can never get into competions.
But now my hard work and KC is rewarded. :]
They should have more games where your Pins affect the game! | | | 04-25-2009, 05:20 PM | #7 | Happy Birthday Moo!

Pay 250 for each pet to get a fun game or unlockable at the end of your training. I have 57 pets!! 250 times 57 is... a lot, I know that much. __________________ Favorite webkinz-  named Iceheart

I do agree though that KA classes are WAAAAAY TOO expensive! They should be 25 KC or even less and you should be able to take more than three classes per day. While I am on this rant. WHY WHY WHY does it make sense that every pet can go to school individually but somehow after getting this wonderful education you only do one job per account. Shouldn't each pet be able to do his/her/its own job? It just doesn't make sense. Where is the logic? They should be designing jobs that require KA qualities to enable the job and every pet should be able to do a job every 8 hours.
By the way I am not sure where you get the 250? If each pet does 3 classes per day that would be 150KC per pet. 150X57 pets would be 8,550KC per day! If you do two jobs per day at 250KC that would take you 17.1 days to pay for KA for one day of school for all of your pets. I really think Ganz has painted themselves into a corner with this expensive school. Imagine the outcry if they reduced the price to something reasonable and the people who have paid all of this KC felt cheated. __________________ This pizza is a symphony of flavor! | | | 04-26-2009, 05:26 AM | #10 | Webkinz :) Join Date: Apr 2009 Posts: 75 | Re: Some of us got cheated  Originally Posted by Paramore909 I dispise the Kinzville Academy, and do believe we got CHEATED.

You only pay 250 per pet when you use the tutor option, but when you complete the class yourself it is only 50 kc per class per pet. I put 18 pets through the KA each day, because I am trying to collect as much as possible.
I believe that paying for the tutor is a waste of hard earned kc, because the classes are easy enough. | | |  | | 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
