Hey Everyone,

Today, I thought I'd interview Jasmingirl about her position as a Moderator. She has been with us since November 2019, and as a valuable member, she and many staff are respected for their work here at Chotopia keeping it alive and active as possible. Please be sure to say hello to Jasmingirl!
Firstly, how long have you been a staff member for?
I'm not sure but I think since November 2019.

How have you enjoyed your position? Has it been going well?
Ooh yeah - I enjoy being a Staff Member, also posting on the main blog for Chotopia has been enjoyable, and being there as a contact point for help.

What do you like about your position as staff?
I like to improve the game with some ideas, hosting events, planning them and adding them to a document. Since I was a child I looked up to the mods. Now I am one and enjoying this really well. Fun fact: I was an Agent on .de.

Are there any new plans for the future of Chotopia?
We're currently designing some new items and try to develop some new Events. Also, we're trying to have a contest and every second contest, there will be a creative competition.

Are there times where your role as staff gets difficult? When do you think this happens? This can be a form of college or even work.
Ooh, I mean Chotopia is a part of my free time. I'm a college student and having a mini job. So when I have a day like Uni plus Work, I can't take part in daily Cho, as I have to dedicate my time there.

Do you think Chotopia has a lot to improve?
I mean we have construction sites but nothing impossible to be done! We're trying to hire a new Developer to be able to change over our ideas into reality.

And finally, if you had the chance of making a minigame, what would it be and what kind of game would it be? 
We love to play hangman or Pictionary here at the Wall. What about a little mini-game like that? Maybe memory would also be really cool here in Chotopia. If NPC's count to be a minigame: I wanna redesign Cupid, and include all cho's who have done all missions.

What an incredible staff member, but that doesn't mean that Jasmingirl is the only staff who gets this, all of the staff are well respected for their work at Chotopia and I hope to interview as many as I can.
What do you think of Jasmingirl? Do you think she is doing great?

Hey Everyone,

Happy Valentines Day! Today's the day you spend time with your friends, family or even your lover. As I see it, the day is more about happiness than sadness, but if that's the case, then see someone who will make you happy today, and if you are alone today, make your own Valentines Day! I wish you the best today and I hope today you spend it at your happiest.

Hey Everyone,

I just wanted to let you know about the recent events from yesterday on the 12th February 2020. As always there was a Valentines Day Party on Chotopia at 8pm Cho Time, and as the party progressed; there was a lot of exciting magic and then the rain came! Followed by that we had a quiz, which had some excellent questions about Valentines Day and a lot of them were interesting to participate in, and although I didn't know some of them, they definitely helped me learn more about Valentines Day.

But followed by that, Anna had a surprise for all of us. After a good party with a lot of magic, as well as rain, which came with a lot of items following the theme of Valentines Day, I was surprised by what came next; suddenly Anna stopped and then told us all that I was going to become an Agent. When I heard this I thought Anna was not serious about this, but before hinted that a Cho was going to become an Agent. When I heard this I was thinking "I wonder who it could be?" then thought, and I doubted that I would be picked, as I don't usually think about it. Then all of a sudden, I saw Anna say "We are picking Honest to become an Agent" my heart raced, and I couldn't say anything, I was speechless to the fact that I had just become an Agent.
As a member of the community, I thought I would just be a Citizen and only just that. But after today's party, I have given the rank 'Agent' which to some, may mean a lot. But to me I had never achieved being an Agent, I've never become an Agent in a Chobots Virtual World. Ever since Chobots.com and through many others, I never achieved that title; but now I have.
I want to thank everyone who came to the party as you would have witnessed me becoming an Agent, and because of this I want to say thank you for being there; for me to become an Agent is something that I've just achieved and now that it is so, I can't stop talking about it. As I've said, I mean everything, but also I want to thank the staff for choosing me to become an Agent.
With all the best to the future of Chotopia.

Hey Everyone,

There is so much to post. As you read this, you'll find that there is a lot to cover, so let's get started by talking about the Poetry Contest, which will be ending on the 13th February 2020, so don't forget to submit before then, so make sure you submit as you won't be able to participate in it.

Hey Everyone,

I thought I'd do a post about Facts about the Gamezone Minigames in Chotopia. There are at least five different minigames to play, but these are just a few to play in Chotopia! Which one have you played before?

Let's begin by talking about the various different minigames there are:

1. Asteroids - This minigame is like space invaders but it involves Asteroids in space, your objective is to shoot as many Asteroids as possible to get points, and if you get hit, the game ends. As you progress and shoot Asteroids, they increase; which means you need to shoot faster.

2. Choboard - As a Cho, one of the sports of Chotopia is Choboard. The aim of the game is to collect as many blue balls as possible, whilst avoiding the rusty gears that fly at you, but the catch is that the speed of your Choboard increases as you collect them, so be careful of the gears!

3. Pinball - One of the main points of this game is that it works like a pinball game, try to avoid getting the ball in the hole at the bottom, knock the ball up and get as many points as possible, and as you do that you level up depending on the number of points you get.

4. Crab Game - This game is a one versus one AI (Artificial Intelligence) minigame against someone who isn't real, the aim of the game is to hit the puck into the other's net, just like football/soccer.

5. Robofactory - All you need to do here is match the gear colours, at least three to match to get points and to clear the levels, you need to match all of the gears to get to the next level of the minigame.
All of these minigames give you bugs, which is the main currency of Chotopia!

What do you think of these minigames? Do you have a favourite minigame?

- Tier 2 ($14.99) - 3 Month, 75,000 Bugs
- Tier 3 ($27.99) - 6 Month, 175,000 Bugs

2. Double Bugs Multiplier - As you play minigames around Chotopia, you'll earn double bugs! This is well deserved as it removes your 1x Multiplier and replaces it with a 2x Multiplier, and if you want to have even more bugs in Chotopia, buy the Player Boost on the Shop under Features, for only $5.00 and will give you a 2.25x Multiplier for 30 days. Which means by combining your monthly membership and your boost, you'll get a whopping 5.25x Multiplier! This will be a great combination if you want to earn lots of bugs.

3. Exclusive Chat Bubble - One thing that is great about membership is that you get a green chat bubble, which helps you stand out from the rest of everyone, as being a Chotopia Member means you're the VIC (Very Important Cho) and means that Cho's will respect you.

Hey Everyone,

There's going to be an Agents Event on Cafe Street at 7:00pm Cho Time on the 7th February 2020, hosted by Antonio involving hide and seek. Not only that but they are taking the event to Rope Street to play the rope game and may involve party magic too. And if you missed the recent posts, then you must be aware that there is a Rope Competition as well as a Poetry Competition. Hopefully, you'll get involved and enjoy the event festivities as well, because the Cho Staff is the best at doing these events.
What do you think of this event? Will you be participating in this event?

Hey Everyone,

I thought I'd come out with top five dailies you should do in Chotopia. As some individuals may not know what to do in Chotopia or are bored and want something to do, well here are my top five dailies that you can do or must-do during your day to day life in Chotopia.

1. Do your Chotopian Quests - This can be from Choproff to other quests in Chotopia. And if you didn't know, then you better start them, as they give items and/or bugs.


2. Do Missions from the Mission Agency - Bring a friend to play the Cow Mission and spend at least 30 minutes on feeding Daisy, and do your Nicho Kingdom Mission once a day.

3. Do at least three Minigames - From Space Racing to Sweet Battle or even Garbage Collector, these are Minigames you should do every day to keep yourself from being bored.


4. Do your Weekly Challenges - This is found on the Dashboard on the side of your map, there are weekly challenges to do that you can do, and if you do complete them you get cool prizes!


5. Do your Daily Spin the Wheel - Make sure you spin the daily wheel, as Chotopia gives you one spin a day and sometimes you can get sweet prizes from the spins.

Hey Everyone,

There's an active member of the Chotopia Community who I've seen being very active. Nightfury0 is the active Chotopian of January as he spent 70 hours on Chotopia last month! The loyalty and activity of this has allowed them to become the January's Most Active Chotopian. They are rewarded $2.50 from Chotopia Staff in the Chotopia Market, as well as a unique shirt. Congratulations to Nightfury0 for being the most active that month!


Next up, there's going to be a Tug o' War Contest. Starting from the 1st of February until the 9th February there is an on-going contest going on. Can you prove that you're the strongest Chotopian? Battle out your friends or even Chotopian's around you at Rope Street.

Hey Everyone,

I just thought I'd share with you this fantastic graffiti by Puzzle10.


They appear to have drawn two individuals sitting at a bench at night. And what seems like a park or at a lake, and seem like they are on a date. Puzzle did a fantastic job of drawing a Valentines Day art, more Cho's should draw more often and show me their art, as I like seeing what people draw! What a fantastic drawing by Puzzle, I hope to see more drawings like this in the future of Chotopia. And if you do draw something, please let me know and I'll check out your drawing.

What do you think of Puzzle's drawing?

Hey Everyone,

Hey Everyone,

I thought I'd like to talk about Chotopia Rules Awareness and how you can follow them correctly, as well as spreading awareness for the rules, as sometimes we all forget the rules and act without thinking about the rules and how it can affect you in-game.


These rules have to be followed, and all members of Chotopia Community know about the rules, but sometimes anyone can go against these simple rules, and so it is always best to remind them about the rules, and if we didn't have these rules, Chotopia wouldn't be a safe environment. Here are the rules broken down:

1. Do not ask or mention Personal Information.
This can be a real name, home address, phone number, and any form of personal information.

2. Do not express or chat with sexual or violent content.
This can be any rude language, teasing in conversations, or even actions that aren't appropriate.

3. Do not bully or cyber-bully anyone.
This can be name picking or giving mean names to others, or even words that hurt others.

Chotopia is a fun and friendly environment for everyone and any form of breaking the rules can result in disciplinary actions, please be mindful about the rules in Chotopia and really think before you act.

What do you think about the rules in Chotopia? Now that you're aware, do you think you'll spread the awareness?
