Thanks MiniMonos Staff Thursday

Hey monkeys!
As some monkeys may know, today MiniMonos has reached 500,000 MONKEYS! That is an outstanding achievement for any website, and really deserves some recognition.

Some monkeys have decided to make this day even more special for the MiniMonos staff, so therefore today shall be known as "Thanks MiniMonos Staff Thursday"!
P.S. It is Thursday in New Zealand where most of the MiniMonos staff are, but Wednesday in UK/US!


I could blabber off all day about how much I love MiniMonos and what a great job I think the staff do, but I won't!!! Instead, here is what some monkeys around the island have said!

TechTiger

Thank You MiniMonos for helping kids learn how recycling helps the environment and how to just "Go Green!" in everday life. MiniMonos will always be the Greenest Virtual World on Earth. Thank You for your time, talent, and friendship you give us all everyday!

We can't wait for us all to make MiniMonos bananamazing for the next 500K monkeys! GO MINIMONOS MONKEY TEAM!!

MissDawg

WOW, MonkeyRock! WOW, monkeys! This is the most monkeytastic gift ever! Thank YOU so much for everything you do -- MiniMonos would not exist without you monkeys! {:(|} MissDawg

Comment your thanks/graphics, and we will be sure to add them in!

Back in July, when MiniMonos had ONLY 250,000 monkeys, half of what there is now, here is what MissDawg said about MiniMonos' outstanding achievements!

Each of those 250,000 kids has helped change the world. Here's how:
Clean water for kids in India
Every time someone buys a Gold membership or virtual good on MiniMonos, a child in India gets clean water through our partnership with Buy1Give1 and the Bird India charity. Our partnership with renewable power company Meridian Energy also provided a year of clean water for 20 kids! So far MiniMonos kids have helped provide 18,492 days of clean water to children in India.
Adopting Orangutans
We adopted our first orangutan, Monti, to celebrate our first 50 Gold members, and our second, Kesi, when we reached 250. We welcomed Pingky and Neng to the MiniMonos Orangutan Family when we officially launched out of Beta. Our "adoptions" go to support the work of the extraordinary Orangutan Outreach organization.
But that's not all! Two of our extraordinary MiniMonos members, Viper and Calypso were so moved by the plight of the orangutans that they adopted their own orangutans! Last September they adopted Mimi and Momo, seen here. Viper and Calypso have been a part of the MiniMonos community since the beginning, and have shown themselves to be such incredible leaders that they have officially joined the staff!
Contributed to the WWF Tiger Initiative
Just because "MiniMonos" means "Little Monkeys" doesn't mean we only support primates! Another project we got behind was the WWF Tiger Initiative. We partnered with WWF-NZ to sell virtual tiger suits -- and every time a MiniMonos member buys a tiger suit for their online monkey to wear, a donation gets made to the WWF TX2 project to double the wild tiger population by 2022.
MiniMonos EcoMonkeys completing real-world projects
Of all the ways MiniMonos members have made the world a better place, the MiniMonos EcoMonkey program is probably the one we're most proud of -- because it's driven by the kids themselves, making an extraordinary difference, every day, in their own communities.
The recently launched MiniMonos EcoMonkey program supports kids to tackle a real-world environmental project and earn virtual rewards on MiniMonos Island. They publish their ‘before’ and ‘after’ photos, explain why they chose their eco-project, and describe how they feel when they have completed it.
One determined US player, MiniJghRocks, campaigned to have a paper recycling program implemented at his school. Although his principals agreed, the superintendent reversed the decision, saying that similar programs in near-by schools had failed due to lack of support from the students. As MiniJghRocks explained: “Since it costs money to recycle (at least where I live) they decided it wasn’t worth the extra funds to put in something that wouldn’t be used. It makes sense right? Well, we then decided to start a petition, to prove that kids would actually use the recycling system!” The result was over 500 student signatures.
MiniJghRocks also enlisted the help of his math teacher to calculate that the amount of paper his school throws away, translated to 1,540 trees cut down per year. He wrote: “Next, we presented to our superintendent, showing him the facts, signatures, and a bit of the EcoMonkey Blog. He sat listening for a while, and [when] we finished, he, in response, also signed our petition!”
On successful implementation of the recycling program at his school, MiniJghRocks described it as: “Awesome! It’s soooo awesome. I feel like I’ve accomplished a lot and have truly changed the world, even if it’s just a little. I’m very happy. It’s just so cool :D” You can read all about MiniJghRocks' EcoMonkey Project here.
Other MiniMonos players have created eco-projects such as switching to eco-light bulbs, up-cycling old clothes to make toys, planting gardens, making useful items out of recycled materials and cleaning rivers and lakes. In all, a lot of kids have completed eco-projects so far!
Our aim with the MiniMonos EcoMonkey program is simple: One million kids taking real-world eco-action as a result of playing on MiniMonos.

That is pretty impressive! All that just from one game for kids!
Let's take this day to show how much we appreciate all the MiniMonos does for us, all the times that they forgive us, all the times that they care for us!

Thanks a lot MiniMonos!

Thanks to AlphaMonkey and MissDawg especially. Without them, MiniMonos wouldn't exist at all. They started MiniMonos with no pay at all, and with the main purpose as "educating kids about the environment". I bet they never guessed how many lives they would change by starting it!
Thanks also to EcoMom! She has been with MiniMonos from early on, and has worked SUPER HARD for MiniMonos, yet she still finds time to login and play some Monkey Fist... LOL! I am sure MiniMonos wouldn't be the same without her!
Also, a special mention to the team that keeps MiniMonos running, often "behind the scenes"! This includes Monty, BadgerFox, Zinky, Ostrich, Tuck, and a few more I can't think of right now!
Thanks as well to Bananatastic, who is always willing to do everything with a positive attitude! He works very hard and does a lot of graphics too, and still manages to squeeze in some of the best parties I have ever seen... LOL!
And how could I forget, Manx and Viper!!! Manx and Viper are always ontop of the MiniMonos Moderation and don't allow any naughty monkeys to chat on MiniMonos, hehe! Just imagine what MiniMonos would be like without them, LOL!

We really appreciate all of your work, MiniMonos staff!

Remember, please comment YOUR thank-you's to the MiniMonos staff and we'll include them in this post!

Happy Halloween

Hey monkeys!
As today is Halloween in some countries, (and for others it is tommorow), all of us at That MiniMonos Blog would like to wish you a...

 

To do this, we'd like to show you something made by one of the oldest and friendliest monkeys on MiniMonos! This monkey is very good friends with Bananatastic, she is always willing to help everymonkey and this monkey is also an author of a few books and has more on the way! Here are her awesome pictures, which I think EVERYBODY deserves to see because they are SOO awesome :D Thanks Grannie!

 

WOAH don't you just think that is BANANAMAZING! It took her over 30 HOURS :O Now that's true dedication!

Thanks Grannie! These pictures are really awesome! And so are you :) GrannieRosie has to be one of the friendliest monkeys I have ever met, and the most talented and artistic!!! She even won Monthly Masterpiece and is giving away her prize to other monkeys!!! (More info. on that soon, hehe!)

Remember to click here to check out her website, where she posts all her latest awesome stuff! :D

MiniMonos Exclusive: Branded Cards and Eco-Promotion

Hey monkeys!
I have done some awesome detective work, and have found something really awesome!
As you may know, many games have cards that you can buy in real-life stores, and then enter a code from the card online to receive what you have bought. These are mainly for people who cannot buy things online, or don't think it is safe. MiniMonos right now has the "Zeevex" cards for just this, but the Zeevex cards do not specify that you NEED to use them for MiniMonos, as there are many other games you can use it for. It is also a bit more complicated.

Doing some cryptic work, I found this awesome exclusive. MiniMonos has been doing a lot of work in the United Kingdom lately and some members of staff were at something called Springboard, to bring more monkeys to the island. Here is what MissDawg said about MiniMonos. (Source: Springboard)

We launched TV commercials nationwide in the UK. We’ll have MiniMonos prepaid gift cards available in Sainsbury’s nationwide from October. And you’ll definitely have to stay tuned for an awesome nationwide eco-promotion in January.

Woah awesome!
First, MiniMonos is going to have prepaid branded cards in October! They will sold in the popular UK shop called Sainsbury. This is going to be awesome, and I can't wait for them to be released, I am sure it will bring a lot more people to MiniMonos. But at the end of that, an exclusive to this blog! MiniMonos is going to be having a massive eco-promotion in January! I wonder what it could be!

Will it be for just United Kingdom? Or for the whole world?  What could it be? Maybe it will be something similar to EcoMonkeys? I can't wait for it! Also for the branded cards! Hopefully they get released into more places of the world so more monkeys can get them!

What do you think of these exclusives? Right what you think in the comments!
Talk soon, monkeys!

MiniMonos Beach Ball Search!

Hey Monkeys!
First of all, Welcome to the new "Minimonos Blog" :)
There is a scavenger hunt for beach balls of the party master blog!
Here is some of the post from Bananatastic, for more information!

August has just started and many MiniMonos monkeys are getting ready to start school again sometime this month or in the beginning of September!
With that being said, it's time to celebrate the last days of summer in August and I thought it'd be fun if we had a little scavenger hunt! This is how it works...

(NOTE: The beach ball in the picture about does NOT count. There is another beach ball with the number 6 hiding some place around the Party Master blog)
Around the Party Master blog there are 6 beach balls hidden and ach beach ball has a number on it (Numbered 1 - 6).
Go through the pages on the Party Master blog to find the hidden beach balls.
Once you've found them, leave a comment on this post telling us where you found each beach ball!
Everymonkey between now and August 5th who successfully finds all beach balls will be rewarded with 500 banana chips on MiniMonos!

Awesome!! I love the idea of a scavenger hunt, I have started looking! Have you found them? You can find them by clicking HERE and looking at the Party Master Blog! Then once you have found them all, comment where they are by clicking HERE! Comment and say if you have completed this!
--Cade77 and MonkeyRock
