Question Number 2

Our next question that we recently received is from Anthony Deathsong! Here's what he asked:

Question: "Do you you think Pirate 101 will be better than Wizard 101 or will Wizard 101 stay on top?"

Answer: "We believe that Pirate 101 might have some improved game mechanics and better graphics since Kingsisle has been around for a while now and it has gained numerous employees. However, we also believe that the story will be equally as exciting and interesting. So, it basically comes down to your personal opinion. If you like pirates, swords, and stuff like that then you might like Pirate 101 better. If you like wizards, magic, and things like that then you might like Wizard 101 better. Who knows? Maybe you will like them equally. Kingsisle always surprises us with wonderful things so you never know what might happen. All you can do right now is wait and see. :)"

Thank you for your question Anthony! We answered it as well as we could!

Question Number 1!

Michael and I have recently received our first question! However, this person did not leave their in-game so unfortunately we can't give credit to them. The question given to us and the answer we gave are listed below.

Question: "How do you guys make you and your website known to the community?"

Answer: "Michael and I make ourselves known by communicating and interacting with the community. We both have twitter accounts and I have a Facebook account. We also help people A LOT in Wizard 101. In addition, I attend the live shows of Pieces of 8 Radio and Ravenwood Radio. As for our blog, we promote it by just talking about it on twitter and asking our friends to inspect our website and add a link on their webpage."

Thank you for your question! We answered it to the best of our ability :)

New In Game Screenshot

As you can see below, this is a screenshot from Pirate 101 that was taken by J Todd Coleman. If you look at the picture closely, you can see that there is a resemblance to the Wizard 101 game interface. For example, the experience bar and the chat menu are close to the area where they are in Wizard 101. The health meter seems to be in the same location as well. So, thank Mr. Coleman for this picture my fellow pirates! If you look at it closely some of your questions and mysteries might just be revealed...

Beta Keys!

I have recently found out that Pirate 101 will be at comic-con! In addition to this piece of great news, I have also discovered that they will be releasing 10 beta keys! Of course, compared to the number of people going to this event, that is a small (very very very small) number. Well I guess we will find out more in the future.


You can find more information about comic-con here.
(if you click the word "here" it will take you to their official website)

My Pirate Name...

A few hours ago, Pieces of 8 Radio announced an interesting contest. The details of this are as follows


  • Create your own personalized Pirate 101 Name 
  • Examples: One-Eyed Jack (The Friendly Necromancer's Name)
  • Send the Email with your name to their email
  • There will be 3 winners
  • Each winner gets 5000 crowns to spend on Wizard 101 or Pirate 101


This contest naturally interested me so I am currently working on a name. Of course, I am not only doing this for crowns but to create a name to represent me in the community. So, lets hope I can come up with something!

No News

As I am sure you are all aware of, there has not been that much news about Pirate 101. Naturally, many people are disappointed by this. However, I believe we can infer that Kingsisle is working hard on their two games because of this. In fact I have a feeling that the beta for Pirate 101 will be released soon. This of course is just a random guess and is not an official announcement. So turn that frown upside down my fellow pirates! Cross your fingers and get ready for the journey of a lifetime!

On Vacation

I am sorry for any inconvenience my fellow pirates, but I will be on vacation for the next week so I will not be able to post that much :( . But when I get back I will upload some special surprises that will be worth the wait!

How Often Will I Post?

The answer to the given question above is EVERYDAY! Isn't that awesome?!?! I know some bloggers who post only once a week or even once a month and I find that ridiculous! So, for the benefit of the community, I will post every single day (unless there is an emergency or if I am on vacation). I hope this post makes everyone happy and filled with joy.

Who Am I?


Hey everyone! My name is Jackie Unicornsinger and welcome to my Pirate 101 blog!


I have had a history with blogs, MMORPG, and even podcasting. I have played many games such as Yu-Gi-Oh!, Pokemon, World of Warcraft, Wizard 101, and many others as well. So, when I first saw Pirate 101, I knew I had to play it . Now, since the game is not released yet, I have decided to start a blog about Pirate 101 to provide information and news about it.

For those of you who don't know, Pirate 101 is a MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game). It is currently in an Alpha testing stage. This means that only a handful of people that have a connection to the company of Kingsisle are able to play. Later this year, the Beta will be released and more people will be randomly selected to play the game.

To wrap up my first post, I would like to state what the purpose and goals of this blog is. They are as follows.

1. To Create a site where people can find information about the game.
2. To Make this the best Pirate 101 blog possible.
3. To Connect the Kingsisle Community together.
4. To Have Fun! :)
5. To Tell a Story about my adventures in Pirate 101 (once it releases).

Thanks Everyone! I hope my blog becomes a big hit and that everyone likes it!
