Almost Time...

It's almost time for the lions of Jamaa to leave. I know it's sad for Jammers who don't have one, but it's for a good cause: more people need to know that the lion population in Africa is decreasing fast. Make sure to buy lions before they're gone, if you don't already have one!

Lions are on the last page of the Diamond Shop animals!

Summer Break

The summer solstice was two days ago, on the 21st, and that means that it's officially summer! AJ's suiting up for the season with today's Rare Item Monday, a Freedom Sword to celebrate Freedom Day in Jamaa. Freedom Day is based on the United States of America's freedom day, which is known as Independence Day (taking place on July 4). Make sure to get the Freedom Swords before they go!

The Freedom Sword is on the third page of Jam Mart Clothing

With the newly-arrived summer season will come the Freedom Party. It's not here yet, but the two other summer parties (Heatwave Party and Cruise Ship Party) are still up and running.

New Adventure!

Hi! General here. Today, I will explain many updates that have occurred in Jamaa...

There is an awesome new adventure available now: Bubble Trouble! It's the first ocean adventure! I was so excited when I saw this!

Me, starting the new Adventure

Also, it's sad but true...lions are leaving the Diamond Shop in two weeks! If you don't already have one, get one before they're gone!

The notice in the Jamaa Journal about lions leaving

Daily Spin has changed, too. Now, you can get rare prizes and there's more chance of spinning diamonds. Spirit armor, once available as a member's monthly gift, is now available in the Diamond Shop...this may sound good to new members, but not to me (now my spirit armor is less valuable...).

The last update of the day is how there is now 50 colours to choose from when you colour your animal. This is good news!

A Notable Rare Item!

I don't normally do posts on RIMs (Rare Item Mondays), but today's was a surprise: it's a rare worn blanket! If you already have a purple worn blanket from the Leap Year Party in 2012, don't be sad: it's not the same! I was happy that it's a different colour (ocean blue), because other times AJ has rereleased items (such as the imprisoned phantoms rerelease, which I was not happy about) and that makes Jammers who have the older item unhappy. See the pictures below for an idea of what it looks like!

The ocean blue worn blanket is on the first page of Jam Mart Clothing items, which is a rare occurrence. It is sold for only 200 gems, and it is not a members-only item. Regular worn blankets were originally sold during the "BETA days" of 2010, when AJ was first starting. Since then, AJHQ has released two versions of rare worn blankets because many Jammers were discovering that the original worn blankets aren't easy to find.

Glitches

Hello, fellow Jammers! Every so often, Animal Jam "glitches" when you are playing it. If you are wondering what a "glitch" is, it is a technical problem common in electronics. Today, at the Summer Carnival, a glitch happened to me when I was trying to buy a giant octopus plushie. Take a look at it below!



I don't know how all of these items were called rare, and I especially don't know how it used the gem symbol in the Summer Carnival Shop (only tickets are used there). I also wonder how much gems #6228 is...

Below is another glitch where, even though I am COCO2405's buddy, I can't go into their den (and I'm not in their den, either). I don't know how it happened.

That's about it for today!

Finally, Another Ocean Rare Item!

Today is another Rare Item Monday! Today, the item made me quite happy - it's a rare propeller! I consider this bluish underwater clothing item is the second-best rare water item AJ has ever made, after the Bubble-Tron 5000. Called the "Turquoise Rare Propeller" on the Daily Explorer, this item is available in Bahari Bargains for only 950 gems. It is the only item in the shoppe that is not on sale as of now.

The Rare Propeller, available for 950 gems!

In other news, I met a duo of dolphins at Bahari Bargains who were very nice and respected the Animal Jam Rules. They are both examples of my favourite type of Jammer: the nice ones! Remember, Jammers, make sure that you listen to the AJ rules!
