• He's a dog, my favourite animal.
• He's a Bloodhound, my favourite breed of dog.
• He's yellow, an awesome colour.
• He's inquisitive and cunning.
• He's loyal and noble.
• He's always getting into trouble.
• He's got a short-temper with others but by the end of the cartoon, he's friends with them.
• He's very special to myself and my fiance.
• He was one of the first characters I met at Disneyland Paris when I first visited as an 8 year old.
• His cartoons are always really entertaining and amusing.

Magic Castle Online Guide: Part I - How to sign up and create an avatar.

Hi Disney Guys and Gals!

Today I'm starting Part I of my "Magic Castle Online" Guide. Today will be all about how to sign-up for an avatar and I'll also explain a little about the purpose of the game.

What is Magic Castle Online and why would I be interested?


MCO is a RPG where you can create a very kawaii avatar and explore the world within MCO. There are currently four worlds within the game and a fifth being added in early August. These worlds are; Castle Town (basically where your avatar lives) which also has a Castle and Downtown Square attached (more info later), Monsters Inc World which is pretty much like a set from the Pixar movie of the same name, a Pirates of the Caribbean World which is, again, like a set off of the movie and with elements of the theme park ride, too. There's also Stitch World, which looks like the town in which Lilo and Stitch live. In August, a fifth world, 100 Acre Woods, is being added but I'm not too sure of what it'll look like just yet - more news as it's available! In addition to these worlds there is a Nightmare Before Christmas World which, I believe, is only accessible between October and December to fit in with the film.

So, you basically have a goal in the game and that is to collect all the cards. It's a card collecting game, but you don't trade or fight with the cards Pokemon style.. you just receive and collect cards through completing mini games and talking to certain people. You can also buy many adorable costumes and clothing for your character and have your own room in which you can put furniture. It's a very cutesy kawaii game.

Sounds interesting? Please read on to find out how to sign up.. with a character name that won't make millions of Japanese think..wtf? (I saw someone who thought the Japanese "alphabet" was simply backwards from the "american" one... they tried to write their name and ended up with a name that, in Japanese, meant utter gibberish) I'm here to save you from that embarassment and also to make sure you set your country to "rest of world".
