Chief Poobah Reports On The Road To Canal City
by Kat de Claw on February 6, 2009
Please look away if you’re squeamish to monsters or can’t handle stomach-churning images. Luckily, I was able to snap this picture from behind an overgrown shrub before this monster was able to catch up to me. But just look at it! I wanted to show you what we’re up against once we begin work on the road to Canal City. Don’t get me wrong, I would never put any of you in danger, but I’m going to need your help.
I’ve been scouting these dark areas of Wildwood Forest with fellow Dizzywood inhabitants and we think we’ve found the road that will take us through. It looks like we’re almost ready to begin work. You’ve got your construction hats on, right? And safety glasses?
You don’t? Oh my, if you don’t have either of these, there is absolutely no way that you’ll be able to begin working on the road. I won’t have that, it’s much too dangerous!
My job as Dizzywood Chief Poobah requires me to watch over all of the Known Lands and keep it clear of any harm that can be brought on by Emperor Withering or anyone else. And these monsters, infesting our way into Canal City are no exception! How else are we supposed to get past these swamp monsters if we don’t work together? We’re making such great progress, and we’re so close…we just need the proper tools and machinery to get us through. Our hats just aren’t enough!
I’m going to ask my dear friend Chanjo if he can lend a hand and help us build something that will help us get through this road. In the meantime, encourage others to rally with us in the efforts to get to Canal City. This is going to take all the Dizzy power we can get!
Dizzywood Chief Poobah,
Kat de Claw

New Backpack Icons
by The Dizzywood Team on February 4, 2009
With the recent release of Silver Explorers we’re sure that you may have noticed some new icons next to some of your backpack items.
If you see a gold key next to any of your items that means that you have a Gold Explorer only item. After you’ve upgraded your account to gold, you’ll see this key next to special new clothing items, powers, and more! As a Gold Explorer, you’re able to:
Get Access To Special Missions & Rewards
Privately Message Your Buddies
Customize Your Name & Chat Bubble
Customize Your Multi-Room Mansion
Get All Silver level benefits!
We now have Silver Explorers! And just like Gold Explorers, there is also a special key to distinguish any item that you can unlock if you’re a Silver Explorer. As a Silver Explorer you’re able to:
Buy Furniture For Your Home
Stylize Your Explorer With New Clothing
Get Access To Creative Home Templates
Unlock Special Powers
Grow Unique Plants & Place Them Anywhere
Get Multiple Skateboards
A smiley face next to any of your items means that you collected that item before February. Anything you got in Dizzywood before February is yours to keep, as a special thank you for being a Beta player! These smiley faced items will stay in your backpack forever, and you will always be able to use them anytime you’re in Dizzywood!
Backpack items that don’t have any of these icons next to them are FREE for everyone!
Some of you are testing our free trial month of Silver Membership. We hope you’re having a great time, and remember that come February 28, 2009, you’ll have the opportunity to renew your membership and stay on as a Silver Explorer to continue earning cool new items!
No items will be removed from your backpack, but depending on the level of your membership, you may not be able to use them. Items and features that you’re not able to use will appear grey in your backpack, so when you decide you want to renew or upgrade your membership, those items will be ready for you to use again!
You can get more information on Explorer Memberships or compare plans to see what’s best for you!
Now that we know what these icons mean, let’s all make sure we’re ready to start work on clearing and rebuilding the road to Canal City!

A Fun Adventure Awaits
by The Dizzywood Team on February 1, 2009
Hello Explorers
This morning you may have noticed that we had some glitches with some new things we’re doing. No worries, though, because Chanjo and our team of engineers are working on fixing the problems.
We just announced that Silver Explorer memberships are here and we’re giving everyone who joined Dizzywood before February 1, 2009 a free month to be a Silver Explorer.
We are busy getting all those free memberships to everyone (there are over a MILLION to hand out!) So please don’t worry if you haven’t got yours just yet. It’s on the way!
Very soon, it will be time to open the road to Canal City. But there’s a lot of things that we need to do before we can reach it, like stopping the monsters who are on the road. We’ll need help chasing them away and repairing the road, and Gold and Silver Explorers are the first to get to help! So in the meantime, collect as much monster repellent as possible from the new missions, Monstrous Rumor and Galvanize the Repellent.
Get ready for a fun new adventure. Canal City awaits!

Pathfinders At Work
by The Dizzywood Team on January 30, 2009
Chief Pathfinder Burrows is calling his team of Dizzywood Pathfinders to action! Work on the road to Canal City will begin soon and Pathfinders are helping Explorers gear up in preparation. Construction helmets are being passed around by Pathfinders everywhere, so keep an eye out for our helpful friends. They’ve been given special instructions from CP Burrows to deliver helmets to as many Explorers as possible. The work that’s going to be needed to rebuild and clear this road is going to take all of us, so make sure you find a Pathfinder to help you get your construction helmet!
Want to become a part of the Dizzywood Pathfinder team? CP Burrows is always looking to expand his team, and with so many new and exciting things happening in Dizzywood, now is the perfect time to pay him a visit in the Crystal Catacombs. As a Pathfinder you’ll get the inside scoop on everything Dizzy, secret codes to unlock top secret blog posts & more! Find out how to become a Pathfinder from CP Burrows himself.
Tip: Look for crates with the official Pathfinder seal (pictured above) and click on them to get your construction hat.

This Just In!
by The Dizzywood Team on January 23, 2009
A small group of inquiring Explorers just came to us with this news. What follows is the conversation that took place right after they came to us with a picture of what they saw:
DW: Can you tell us what you found?
Anonymous Explorers: We were skating through Presto’s Edge and saw all these barricades! Who’s trying to block us from entering?
DW: There have been rumors going around that inhabitants of Dizzywood have been trying to find a road that will lead everyone to Canal City.
Anonymous Explorers: Canal City? Oh yeah! We heard that the road is blocked because of monsters. Should we be scared?
DW: Not at all! Chief Poobah, Kat de Claw has been working hard, banding together with the inhabitants of Dizzywood to find a way to clear the road. There hasn’t been much luck though. With the Cloud Sprites returning ill from poisonous gas and Quill being warned away by swamp monsters, there’s no one that can tell us what lies beyond those barricades.
Anonymous Explorers: Woah…
We want to hear from you!
What do you think? If it’s swamp monsters that are blocking this road, how will anyone ever get through? What are your ideas, and what do you think would be the best way to get past them?
