Today is the day, lots of trick or treats will be out for candy - you better make sure you have some for them! The Chobots Team has posted some very interesting facts on the Chobots Blog, and I thought I'd might share them with you guys.

  •     Ireland is typically believed to be the birthplace of Halloween about 2000 years ago
  •     The first Jack O'Lanterns were actually made from turnips
  •     Samhainophobia is the fear of Halloween
  •     The owl is a popular Halloween image. In Medieval Europe, owls were thought to be witches
  •     Halloween is the second highest grossing commercial in advertising
  •     Some towns in the U.S. have Halloween theme names, for example: Frankenstein, Mo.; Scary, W.Va.; Spook City, Colo., Candy Town, Ohio
  •     Many people mistakenly believe that Valentine's Day is the national holiday with the most candy sales, though statistics reveal that more than twice as many chocolates are sold for Halloween than Valentine's day
Wow, I never knew Halloween was so awesome! It's so cool to hear about how Halloween originated, don't you think? Anyways, have a fun Halloween - and stay safe.

It's been a bit since the last Game Night, but no worries, because there is another one this Saturday, October 26th, at 7pm Cho-Time. Game Night is when all the scoreboards around Chobots will be open and everyone can participate in trying to get to the top of the scoreboards.

A week ago a Design a Costume Contest had begun and users had to design their very own Halloween costume. Winners would have their costume added to the game and to to their inventory. Today, the winners were announce on the Official Chobots Blog. Let's see who was creative enough to win, shall we?
First we have Godlight with their Skeleton Wings design, which looks very spooky! Take a look:

Sweetz made a costume named The Mad Hatter, which shows a crazy looking costume with excellent shading:

 Twirl made a cute Cookie Monster costume, which would be nice to collect and have in your inventory, after all, it matches the Cookie Monster hat:

A couple days ago there was a big party at Mission Street to celebrate what was supposedly Nichos giving up. There was lots of magic, colors, and of course, rain.

This seemed like an ordinary party until the Nicho King and Ghost came! Yes, you've heard me right, it was all a trap. The Nicho King tried to take over Chobots and tried to turn everything purple at the party! The Nicho King declared war on Chobots. All we can do for now is remain calm.
Lastly, the winners of the best dressed at the party were announced.
Congrats to Bluewonder and Yosheh! Amazing outfits you guys!

What did you think about the Freedom Party? Do you think the Nicho King will turn everything purple? Will we be able to defeat him? Leave your thoughts by commenting below.

Alert here, following the story on the Nicho King! He has released that he will be making everything purple. I think he started off with the name tags because he turned some random users' name tags purple, like journalists! I looked at Yosheh's playercard because his name got turned purple and it turns out it truly is the Nicho King. Everything is going purple like wanted! Who will stop him?

Oh no, what will the Nicho King do next?! Wait just in, a giant Pres is now at the party and the Nicho King has disappeared! What has truly happened here is quite a mystery...
Alert! The Nicho King has been spotted at the freedom party on Chobots! Right before he entered, many users crashed and the screen was all gray, I couldn't see nothing. When the screen went back to normal, there he was with Ghost! Ghost isn't banned, oh no!

I knew it, I knew it was all a trick! The Nichos would never just simply give up. I'm not sure what the Nicho King is going to do, but I'm surely scared of him and his power! What do you think about the Nicho King appearance? Leave your thoughts by commenting below.

Apparently as it was announced on the Official Chobots Blog, the user named "Ghost" told us that the Nichos officially surrendered.

To celebrate this freedom, there will be a party on Friday, October 18th at 8:00 PM Cho-Time at Mission Street. Chobots are invited to wear blue and purple and the best outfits will win a prize!

Hmm, I think something fishy is going on. Ghost could of been on the Nichos' side. This could be a trap. Mission Street would be the perfect place for the Nichos to cause some trouble. They were known for kidnapping the staff members in the past. Although, this is just my thoughts. What do you think about the Nichos surrendering? Leave your thoughts by commenting below.

Halloween is almost here! What is Halloween without the costumes and decorations? That's why it's been announced on the blog that the Halloween Costumes are finally in the shop! It's also been announced that Halloween decorations are soon to come as well.

Now, if you head down to the shop, your in for quite a fright. You'll pass by witches and pumpkins. You may hear the whispers of ghosts and the fluttering of bat wings. A chill will go down your spine as you may think Dracula is watching you with his sharp fangs. Put on a coat, or a sweater, because it's getting cold out there. 

So why not join the Halloween fun. Put on a Pumpkin head or a Witch costume. A Ghost or Dracula suits. Or hey, why not be a mix? Citizen or Non-Citizen, you can join in on this fun, all at the Shop.

Don't forget about the Design a Halloween Costume contest, you might see your own costume in the game as well!

It was announced by the Developer himself, Elvio, that he had rejoined the team. Moments later he had a Developer badge along with Elite Journalist and Forum Legend. This is fantastic news for us because the game needs Developers in order to run, so having an amazing Developer like Elvio back on the team will really help the game. I've spoken to Elvio a bit and he plans on squashing the bugs and improving the game. I'm so excited to see what Elvio can do for us.

The Chobots Team explains how they still have a mission to keep the game safe for everyone old and young. To keep it as welcoming as possible. They are even working on new ways to keep the world safe. The Chobots Team thanks everyone for the support throughout the years.

This virtual world is full of surprises. It's becoming more successful everyday. I hope the team keeps on working hard and making it even more successful throughout the years. Chobots has an awesome community and it's very surprising how close everyone is. It has contests and parties that anyone can participate in, fun items to collect for everyone. Being a non-citizen doesn't stop you from the full adventure the world offers you, only the extra features. Citizen or non-citizen, the game is fun and welcoming for everyone. I'm glad I found this game.
