Wow, this video has it all – ship to ship combat, random questing, and one of my favorite crew members starting his leveling quest – I’ll help you out, Old Scratch!! And to top it off – I make Level 26!! So exciting!

Captain Ditto meets Sister Snake in Pirate101
Still questing in Cool Ranch and Big Sky, Captain Ditto and crew battle fierce Sky Snakes to find a perfect egg, to summon ‘Sister Snake’… Well, they succeed only too well, and Sister Snake turns out to be something out of a B-Grade horror movie – yikes!!
Sister Snake sends Captain Ditto and crew on yet more sky-snake related quests, to battle her son and get his fangs… yikes, they must have an awkward time at family get-togethers…
New Ditto’s Video Bloggy Thingy – July 26 2014
Another exciting Video Bloggy Thingy! OK, so it’s been a while, but I”ll try to do these more often, I really will.
Ditto talks about summer, twitter, new games, all kinds of stuff!
Captain Ditto settles the score and starts oh his dream quest thingy in Pirate101
Captain Ditto has the fancy magic hat from Brother Owl, and head to meet Raven Eyes in Bison Village. That, of course, kicks off another ‘dream quest’ that will certainly lead to more thrilling adventure… or something.
Wizard101 Contest – ‘Where’s Ditto’, housing edition…
Contest Winners have been announced!
Ditto has another all-new contest for his Wizard101 fans, and it’s all about houses! In fact, it’s all about houses you can build yourself! That’s right – Ditto has codes for new Arcane Builder houses – the ‘Midday Estates‘, ‘Meadows at Dusk‘, and the ‘Night Gardens‘ houses. In case you don’t know, these are the houses that you can build and re-configure with cool housing building blocks – I’ve had a lot of fun with these, and it’s impressive what you can build with them! Each winner of this contest will get one code for one of these amazing houses!
So how do you win? Well, Ditto is hiding out in three of his houses – if you can tell me which house I am in with each picture below, you will be entered to win one of the houses! Only entries who have all three houses correct will win, and the names have to match what you see in the game too – you can’t say ‘The Beach House’, it has to be ‘Island Getaway’, as an example.
Send your entry to dittocontest@gmail.com with the subject ‘Where’s Ditto’ and list your three answers, plus your wizard name, so I can announce the winners on my website. You have from now until Midnight EST on Sunday, July 27th to get your entries in, and the winners will be announced on Monday, July 28th.
-
- House 1
-
- House 2
-
- House 3
As always, only one entry per person please, and do make sure to include your wizard name so I can announce the winners here on the site. And to re-iterate – each winner will get a code for ONE of the above ‘Arcane Builder’ houses, randomly chosen.
Captain Ditto gets his man… um, pearl… in Pirate101
Captain Ditto prepares to snatch victory from the jaws of his recent defeat at the hands of 2 — no, 20 — Black Storm Raiders. Captain Ditto and his crew battle fiercely against the brutal Black Storm pirates and finally emerge victorious, collecting the final mystical pearl needed by the wise (and somewhat spooky) Brother Owl.
Brother Owl grants Ditto the new mystical headdress thingy and sends Ditto to give the mystic hat thingy to Raven Eyes in Bison Village. This stuff gets pretty weird – it’s fun though!!
Captain Ditto battles Black Sky Raiders in Pirate101!!
Captain Ditto and his trusty crew are hunting Black Storm raiders to collect these cool special pearls for that magic headdress thingy. Check out the (mostly) awesome ship to ship combat – Ditto looks like he almost knows what he is doing…
Ditto’s ‘Name that Pet’ Wizard101 contest winners!!
Here they are, the winners of Ditto’s fun ‘Name that Pet’ contest – well, some of them at least. You see, apparently Ditto forgot to tell people to add their wizard names to their contest entry (oops, my bad), so only a few people who entered sent in their wizard names. Was only able to post the entries that had wizard names (since I would never post your real name or your email), and those winners are listed below. There are a LOT more entries that won, however, and everyone has been sent their winning codes in email already. I really enjoyed all the entries, you are all very creative and came up with some fun names – thanks to all who entered and congratulations to all the winners – remember, there are a LOT more winners than are listed here…

Ditto Explores the new Spiral Cup Gauntlet in Wizard101!
So Wizard101 just announced the new ‘Spiral Cup Gauntlet’ card, available at Target, and Ditto just happens to have a Target right down the street, so here it is – Ditto explores the new Spiral Cup stuff, including the very weird and cool ‘Tanglewood’ mount, the ADORABLE Baby Pegasus pet, some really cool clothes, and the even more cool ‘Mystical Tome’ casting tool (Can’t really call it a wand, right?), plus a quick (and horrilby unsuccessful) look at the ‘Pigswick Fountain’ dungeon.
Gear is available up to level 100 – but Ditto is still only level 77, so he didn’t get the top end stuff. I’m sure it’s awesome!
I do like the Tanglewood Vine mount – I wasn’t sure at first, I’ll admit, because it’s really different, unlike any mount I’ve ever had (in any game, really), but once I watched it a bit, it really grew on me (no pun intended… OK, maybe intended a little bit.) I love the animation and it’s jut so different – it’s really cool. I’m definitely a fan. Of course the Baby Pegasus pet is just mind numbingly cute, it’s so squeeee!
Ditto is back from vacation with a brand new Wizard101 contest!!

I have a bunch of fun pets to give away, and all you have to do it name them! Send me an email at dittocontest@gmail.com with the subject ‘Name that Pet’ and choose a pet from the below list, and give me a name for the pet.

Ditto is going on vacation!
Well, it’s that time of year – school is out and Ditto, Miss Narrator, Chip and Carl are all going on vacation!! Miss Narrator says we are going someplace tropical and fun, and Ditto cannot WAIT! So Ditto won’t be posting while we are away, since ‘tropical and sunny’ tends to not have internet access (and really, if we’re being tropical and sunny, why would we want to be on the internet??) So until our return, always remember to play safe and have fun!!!
Tropical and Sunny!
Captain Dito is training up his pets in Pirate101
If you remember, the last time Ditto played around with Advanced Pets he did not do very well. Since then, Ditto has been learning all about Advanced Pets, and in this video Ditto explains what he has been doing to train up his pets – thanks to suggestions from his awesome fans! Training and Pet Snacks are super important! Ditto gets into a training battle to see how all this training paid off…
So yes, Ditto lost again – but that is OK, it was a lot of fun and we got some good rewards! And the pets don’t seem to mind… Well, Lord Midnight gets a little cranky when he loses…
Announcing Ditto’s ‘Spiral Petfinder’ contest winners!!
So here they are (better late than never) – the winners of Dittos’ fun ‘Petfinder in the Spiral‘ Pirate101 contest!! I had so many GREAT entries, and a lot of people even decided to do fun graphics too! I’ve posted the winners below, and some of the fun images people sent because they were so great! Thanks so much to everyone who entered, and congratulations to all the winners!!
Grand Prize Winners!
- Crazy Ashley Moone
- Sneaky Scarlet
Runners Up: (more…)
Captain Ditto’s first PVP Pet brawl in Pirate101!!
Captain Ditto has been training up two of his pets, Mighty Max and Lord Midnight, and we decided to try some real PVP! It took a while to start a match (probably because Captain Ditto has only unlocked two slots, versus three or four) and the brawl ended up being two against three! It looked like we were outmatched, but the Pet System makes sure it’s even. How do you think Captain Ditto and his pets did?
So I’ve trained up Might Max to Level 42, and I got Lord Midnight my Ebon Spectre to level 39, so they’re doing pretty well! For training strategy, I make sure I pick the highest level training task I have the gear for, and then I sometimes even set a timer on my phone so I can log back in when the training is done and get another training started. (Yes I’ve actually done that… Miss Narrator thinks I may be crazy…) I also make sure I also have lots of yummy pet snacks- they REALLY like that, and it definitely helps with the training!! I also make sure my crew do a lot of pet tasks, to get more pet training gear – I think that’s the biggest thing that slows me down is when I run out of pet gear, so I’ve got to so more pet brawls to make sure I’m well stocked up!
Boss Fight Video – Ditto versus the Dark Night in Avalon!
It’s Boss Fight time again, and this one is a doozy…. Ditto faces the dreaded Dark Night! And he’s just a cute little Marleybone doggy, he’s kind of cute! He’s a 12,500 health Death boss, so Ditto grabs a Life henchman to help out.
This fight is a LONG one, and it’s touch and go a few times – it’s a really good fight, definitely. I think if I’m going to be facing these massive bosses more often I need a new spell that packs some extra punch!
Captain Ditto learns about Pet Sparring in Pirate101
Captain Ditto continues to learn about Pirate101 Advanced Pets and finds out about Pet Sparring! Of course, having no idea what he is doing, Ditto doesn’t do all that well… but it is definitely fun!
New Pirate101 Contest – Petfinder in The Spiral! Have you seen my Flying Fish?
Contest time again, and this time I’ve got a fun one! Everyone is talking about pets, pets, and more pets, and there are so many pets these days, a few are bound to get lost! Well, I don’t want YOUR pets to get lost – that would make Ditto sad – but with so many new pets in The Spiral, YOU just found one wandering around lost, and you need to find it’s owner. How do you do that? You’re going to create a ‘Spiral PetFinder’ ad for this strange pet you’ve found, describing what it is, what it looks like, and at least one interesting distinguishing trait. Like so:
FOUND: Small orange flying rabbit with blue paws. Seems to enjoy yum and carrots, makes a cute squeaky sound when you pet him under the chin…
The pets don’t have to be real Pirate101 pets, but they can be; it’s totally up to you! Send your ‘Spiral Petfinder’ ad to dittopirate@gmail.com with the subject ‘Found Pet’. The contest will run from now to Sunday, June 15th at midnight EST, and winners will be chosen after that. For winners, I’m going to award the top five best ads, as chosen by me and Miss Narrator, and then the remaining winners will be chosen by random drawing.
So what do you win? Why, pets of course! One of three great new crowns pets, plus some crowns!!
-
- Grand Prize – Clownfish plus 10,000 crowns!
-
- Hammerhead Shark plus 5,000 crowns!!
-
- Thresher Shark plus 1,500 Crowns !
And there will be a few other prizes too – a secret for now… So get your entries in, and have fun with it – I can’t wait to see what pets you found out there!!
Ditto recites the poem ‘Jabberwocky’
About to battle the fearsome boss monster Jabberwock in Avalon, Ditto takes a moment to recite his favorite poem, Lewis Carolls’ ‘Jabberwocky’…
“Jabberwocky” – Lewis Caroll 1871
‘Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!”
He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought—
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.
And as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!
One, two! One, two! and through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.
“And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!”
He chortled in his joy.
‘Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
Captain Ditto explores Advanced Pets in Pirate101
More fun changes in Pirate101! Ditto starts exploring the Advanced Pet system with the ‘Silly Pet Tricks’ quest, and winds up at the amazing ‘Petathalon’, where he learns all about pets and other fun stuff! First, he trades Mako Mori a cool trinket for a pet egg, then he heads over to Bestia to the amazing Petathalon, where he learns all about cool pets, pet training, pet breeding, and pie! OK, maybe Ditto was just eating pie while he was playing…
Ditto gives a tour of his new ‘Arcane Builder’ house in Wizard101
Ditto has gotten the awesome new ‘Arcane Builder’s Bundle’ in Wizard101 – a fun (and pretty addictive) new housing system where you can basically build your own house out of cool building blocks. It really is fun, and Ditto gives you a tour of what he’s been working on – it’s pretty exciting.
Captain Ditto explores the ‘New and Improved’ Pirate101
So Ditto is finally checking out the ‘New and Improved’ Pirate101, with Advanced Companions, Advanced Pets, and other cool stuff… Of course Captain Ditto really has no idea what he’s doing, so this video is a lot of clicking buttons and seeing what they do – but in a cute, fuzzy way that will hopefully be highly entertaining!!
Ditto finds the Living Ember… Then things get weird.
May 21, 2014So in our last adventure, Ditto defeated a fire giant to get the armor for Clara Ashbury. Still riding his noble bunny steed, Ditto gives Clara her armor and retrieves the Living Flame to help defrost the frozen fire elf village, yay! Not so fast!
Ditto’s Video Bloggy Thingy for May 19th
Hello, it is the Ditto with another Video Bloggy Thingy! It has been a while – Ditto has been very busy with lots of stuff, sorry about that. But here me is now, so on to the twitter report!
This morning Ditto has an amazing 1899 followers! Wow! Me is still planning on doing something cool and special when I hit 2000… Wait and see!
So the games – well, like Ditto said, he has been very busy lately, so me haven’t played as much as I’d like. In Piate101 I’m still in Cool ranch, though I made a couple nautical levels lately! In Pirate101 Ditto is nearly done with Avalon, so that is pretty exciting! Hopefully me will be done pretty soon.
Ditto hasn’t even been playing Hearthstone much – that is a fun game with exciting, quick-to-play matches – I like jumping in with my mage or my rogue every now and then, but not so uch lately.
One thing I have been doing is enjoying myself outside – the weather has been perfect lately! I’ve been out riding my bike, and playing with Chip on the swingset, and even helping greenly in his garden – that’s a lot of fun, and we’ve got lots of plants coming up! Ditto wil have to make a video of that soon! It’s just like Wizard101 Gardening. Ok, not really – but it’s still fun.
So that’s it for today, have lots of fun in the spiral, but make sure you unplug once in a while and enoy the beautiful weather! If the weather is nice where you are, of course…
Have fun and play safe PLOX
