The first half of our Song and Dance Party Weekend is over! Karaoke Night kicked off just right with over 25 stepping up to the mic to sing their hearts out!  It was awesome. I even stopped in to sing my Justin Bieber parody “Rabies.” Of course, just for fun we always give out some cheesy trophies to whoever our judges deem the best.

Can you believe it’s almost August already? August is artist appreciation month and we’re challenging everyone to transform their cave into a work of art!

We know Webosaurs is filled with talented dinos, but this week we’re going to put your skills to the test. Our judges will be looking for artwork in the form of creative, expressive, decorative and unique caves. Post a comment here to let us know you’re entering the contest and we’ll send a judge to view your masterpiece this Sunday.

Good luck!

This weekend is a Song and Dance Party weekend! We’re kicking off the two day celebration with a KARAOKE night and following up on Saturday with a DANCE PARTY tournament. Put on your dancing shoes and clear your throat for a fun weekend ahead.

Karaoke Night

A party chosen by you! Karaoke Night will work just like Comedy Night. Everyone who comes to the party will have a chance to get up on the stage and sing a few lines of their favorite song. You can even invite some friends to come up for backing vocals, or do a duet! At the end of the party, the guest judges will pick the top 3 performances and award coins and cheesey trophies. The event will be held in the Understory Layer so make sure you’ve unlocked it if you haven’t already!

Where: Giant Umbrella (in Understory Layer), Jurassic Server

When: Friday, July 30th – 14:00 WST

Dance Party Tournament

Day two of the Song and Dance Weekend is an all out Dance Party Tournament. No sign ups, just show up for the event and we’ll do groups of three. A mod will be in game for each one to referee the scores. We’ll just keep going until it filters down to two people left for a final. All dances will be held on hard mode and the tournament will be single elimination. We’ll be meeting in Buckland’s Peak and all dinos will stay in the peak unless their name is called for a round. After the round all dinos are to head back to Buckland’s Peak until it is their turn again.

Winners of the Dance Party Tournament will be getting the coveted Raptor Trophies!

Where: Buckland’s Peak, Triassic Server

When: Saturday, July 31st – 12:00 WST

Iz all up in ur habitatz, eating ur herbivorez

Q: What was the fiercest prehistoric cat of them all? -Irvine

A: Well well well, Irvine. This is a great question. Obviously, sabre toothed cats and wooly mammoths and the like came long after the time of the dinosaurs, in the Early Pleistocene. You bring up a great point about the cats though, because most everyone knows about the famed Smilodon AKA “sabre toothed tiger” but did you know there were many other sabre toothed cats at this time?

There are at least 40 known genera of sabre toothed cats from the Pleistocene, and not all of them even come from the same family! For some reason, multiple groups of mammals evolved to have giant sharp teeth protruding out of their mouths. Nature has a funny way of experimenting with ways to eat other animals!

Who knew Little Fang was so lethal?

We can’t really say for sure which one was the MOST fierce, because you have to admit they’re all pretty gnarly. We’d have to go with Smilodon though, as they were the biggest of all of them. Some of them weighed up to 1,200 lbs (500 kg) !! That is how much a grizzly bear can weigh. Yeah, these guys were nasty. Add giant teeth that grew to 11 inches (28 cm) long and you’ve got a prehistoric killing machine on your hands.

You’ve asked for it and now it’s happening. This week’s Game of the Week is none other than the crazy destruction of Demolition Derby. Hop in your best derby car to destroy your friends. If ramming them isn’t enough, fire off with your machine gun or drop some bombs on a fool!

You can find Demolition Derby on the right side of the Tonto Plateau. If you need a break from getting blown up you can always shake a leg across the way at Dance Party. Oh yeah, and Demolition Derby usually gives out a lot of coins as it is. This week it should giving out a whole lot more.

Today’s party marked the end of more than a week of Cowasaurus madness. We’ve had some great times with this crazy cow/dinosaur thing. He loves grass. He’ll hug you. He’ll also poop on you. Still, we love Cowasaurus and he’s become a member of the Webosaurs family.

We had some great times in the Giant Umbrella today for his party, and ended with a few rounds of Dance Party, Demo Derby and Sand Surfing. I asked Cow to say some words before he left -

“Moooo. MOOOO. MOOO!!!! MOO MOO. MOO? MOO MOOOOO MOO”

And then he pooped.

I think what he’s trying to say is “You all have been so great to me. Making friends with you has been the best time of my life. Thanks for the grass and I promise I’ll see you again soon.”

I think…

The hot days of summer got ya down? Cool off in the exotic waters of Webosaurs Island!

While you’re there, get out your megalodon jaws and snorkeling gear and prepare for a journey under the sea. This week Webosaurs is challenging everyone to an ocean themed cave contest.  Who knows what crazy sea creatures we’ll find lurking in your underwater caves! Our coolest, most creative underwater caves will be featured here in the blog AND win a bluggin banner. Reply to this post to sign up! Our judges will be viewing caves and picking winners this Sunday.

Good luck!

MOOOOOO! Holy COW, Cowasaurus has been all over the place this week. You never know when he’s going to show up next. Except for THIS SATURDAY when Cowasaurus throws a raging cow party at the Giant Umbrella in the Undestory Layer.

We’ll be serving grass burgers, grass salads and maybe even some grass eggrolls. Speaking of which, anyone want to volunteer to run the restaurant? Cowasaurus will be on his best behavior (although I can’t promise he won’t poop out some coin codes). You guys need to get together to make sure the restaurant is running smoothly by the time he arrives.

So yo.. MOOOOOOOO. Deets:

Where: Giant Umbrella restaurant in the Understory Layer

When: Saturday – 12:00 WST

Server: Jurassic

In the meantime, you can look for hints on when Cowasaurus will show up by following us on Twitter. I’ll tweet “Mooooo” when he’s arrived on the Island.
