After a long long wait, HKO NA is open for sign up for its Beta!

No date has been given on when the beta would start or whether characters would be deleted after the beta is over. I don’t understand why its still beta when ID already has its commercial launch.

I wonder if this is the version that we will be getting all the things we have won in events since CB. I sure hope so.

Looks like I’m going to have to split my time between HKO SEA and NA. I’m hoping to see a whole lot of familiar players on the NA server.

Can’t wait!!

Ok, this was my not very successful attempt at farm art.

Can you tell what design I was trying to come up with??

HKO SEA FB ended last nite

It was a fun FB where I got to meet old (no pun intended) GMs like GM_Calealen but also met new ones like GM_Kitolo and GM_Cyrene … check out her nun outfit courtesy of Kitolo Ghost and I also mastered the art of floating on water! LOL!

I’m going to miss all the friends I made in FB!!

But don’t fret, the commercial preview will be back on 31st July 2009 5th Auguest with “Brand new Item Mall, additional towns, additional quests and of course our SUPER FUN IN-GAME EVENTS!“

Visit the official HKO SEA Blog for updates … or just keep visiting my blog

Cya all on 31st July 2009!! 5th August 2009!!!

This happened one weekend when there were no GMs in sight!

Many thanks to Ghost, my sis, who endured my constant whining and having to do it again and again because I wanted it done just right.

Woohoo! There is going to be an ingame event in HKO SEA starting from today @ 12noon +8GMT (aka server time)

Event Mechanics:

Event: The Game Master’s Riddle

Time:  12 pm – 5 pm +8GMT

Date:  10th July 2009 – 13th July 2009 (Friday to Monday)

For more info on the event, pls visit the official HKO SEA Event Blog.

Haha, be forewarned that this post is a purely to brag

Anyway, what does a girl do in HKO when all her quests have been completed? Well, I decided that I wanted to collect all the pet cards that were available!

This is my collection of 30 pet cards that I got during the HKO SEA Founders’ Beta. The only ones I did not get (and probably not planning to get) are the ones from the leaders.

The reason being that there is only ONE leader and they take about 3mins to “wake up” so I don’t think I have the patience to camp for more than 8hrs at a single monster, no matter how cute, just for the probability that it might drop a RARE card.

Hats off to my sis who has collected 2 rare leader cards so far, the Fierce Webley and Fierce Snapper.

The 2 that took me the longest to get were the Brambly , which I got on the 546 hit and the Redwing, which I got on the 807 hit. Yes, I kept track. Almost gave up on the Redwing which was also the final card I needed.

There is still more than a week b4 FB ends, what do I do now?

After seeing all the cool farms that Cyndle made for others, I begged and pleaded her to make me one too!

Hehe .. and so one day, while I was online, she PM me, asked me over to her farm to see the artist at work!

She has planted all the plants .. now to water them.

WAHAHAHA! I loved it! I thought she would have done an “S” but it was a GORGEOUS star!

If u look closely, the strawberries in the middle is an “S”, but it got covered by the other plants.

I LOVE it!

Thanks again, Cyndle!!

** UPDATE **

A couple of players (Kaito and Miao) have uploaded the game onto Megaupload, I have not tried them so I can’t really offer much info on them. Here’s the link to both of them … u can post on the Gloot forums if u have trouble with them.

Click here to go to the Gloot forums posting for the links

** Kaito’s have all 5 parts uploaded but Miao is still in the midst of uploaded the last 2 parts.

Guess this will have to do until Gloot comes up with an official direct download link. Hopefully more ppl would be able to play the game now.

Cya all ingame!

It all started one day when I was trying to get out of the farm market and head to the Sanrio Harbor to look for Ghost …

Next thing I knew, I was stuck in a pile of hay! I could not move! I yelled to GM_Kitolo to save this damsel in distress

He was quick to the rescue but while trying to beam me to Sanrio Harbor, I found myself in a strange Farm Market right out of the twilight zone!

EEK! There were weird boxes and even weirder monsters in the room! Check out that Banana Kart!

GM_Kitolo worked his GM magic and b4 I knew it, I was in the Sanrio Harbor and Ghost was waiting there all along for me.

But not for long ….

GM_Kitolo found us and scared the behjeezus out of me!

I asked him what he wanted and that this was our secret spot GM_Kitolo wasn’t too happy we did not want to shared our secret spot especially after saving me and so …

He banished me to the top of the cliff! YIKES!

After a little negotiating with the almighty GM, he finally agreed to set me down peacefully.

This of cos was just one big adventure for Ghost … it wasn’t her life on the line

Unfortunately, it seems that our secret spot didn’t remain secret for long … and so we taught icygalx the art of kachiaoing GM_Kitolo! Hahahaha.

Of cos GM_Kitolo wasn’t going to sit there and let us have our way with him! He decided enough was enough and so he used his powerful GM mind control, beam all the players into his farm ….

And made us his SLAVES! He made us clear all the plant and trees on his farm as he has something special in mind for us!

He kicked us out after utilizing us for manual labor and then for the next hr or so, he was alone in his farm tinkering away. He refused entry to everyone … it was a mystery to what was going on inside.

The wait was finally over and then he invited everyone into his farm!

Oh wow! Look what the busy little GM came up with! As a reward for being his slaves, he let us farm on his farm which was a leveling heaven!

Wonder what the next adventure would be …

P.S. There is no GM mind control, don’t worry, no one was harmed

Haha, sorry for not updating in awhile but the Founders Beta for Hello Kitty Online Sea East Asia (HKO SEA) has opened and I have been lost in the world of Kitty and friends

Here are some of my adventures while in Sanrioland …

I was not able to use my original ign Starrfire7 and so I had to settle for St4rrfire7. From what I was told, its because of the filter that is in place I really that it could be fixed as I really do love my nick and have been using it since Closed Beta times.

My sis, Ghost, was one of the first ppl I met in game. Love that red hair is now one of the options in the very beginning when u create yr character.

I bumped into Serenity, now know as Seren. She was also hit by the name filter bug

I have met OoadelineoO in the Gloot forums and was happy to see her ingame

There are new GMs for HKO SEA. Here’s 2 of them. I really love nich’s kimono outfit! And there’s GM_Kitolo … who would slowly become HKO SEA’s most famous GM of all!

Met another old friend … here’s sheroyaltee. Great to see some familiar faces.

I was chatting with GM_Kitolo … btw, his name always make me smile as “Kitolo” sounds like “Where U Go” in Hokkien (I think its Hokkien, but definitely some dialect).

Anywho …. back to GM_Kitolo …. I mentioned to him my love for LTS and he said that he had some Kiki and Lala slippers!! OMG, you would not believe how excited I was! He beamed to where I was to show off his spanking new slippers!

Haha … Lala does not look like her as the hair is too short! But Kiki looks exactly like he should. I think they should make a pair that is one side Lala and the other side Kiki, wouldn’t that be cool? I can’t wait to be able to get my own slippers.

Hehe …. here are the twins!

Or are we triplets? I was waiting for the damn monster to wake up so I could whack him again!

I found Cyndle! Haha, she was in the HH open beta (I think) and has been really active in the Gloot forums.

And last but not least …. azog!

This FB so far has not really been what I expected. I was hoping more ppl would be in the game. However, because all data would be erased, I have a few friends from past betas who aren’t so keen on joining this one. More so is that it seems the commercial launch (CL) would be in Jul. With the CL being so soon after, most decided to wait as the game content would mainly be the same.

If u want to join me, go to Gloot to sign up for an a/c and download the torrent. Ya, I know, torrent … boo, but it only took me about 1 day to download. I really hope that they would split up the files and do like what HKO ID (Indonesia) did.

Hope to cya all ingame!
