 Feedback FridayAs the weather heats up outside (we're almost, if not at, 100 degrees today and it's still MAY), the time must pass faster, because it's already time for another Feedback Friday, and I am fairly certain I just blinked once or twice! Check out Wizard101's Facebook and Wizard101 Central - we're looking for suggestions on housing items! If you want to participate, please take a screenshot, and post your ideas on those threads... we'll be monitoring them for ideas. We're always looking for ideas for new housing items, and can always use more eyes looking for nifty things in the world to bring to your abode!
Standard disclaimer applies: We do not guarantee to use each and every idea submitted, and questions we pose may or may not be pertaining to things we are currently working on, or will ever undertake. Sometimes, there are just technical limitations that make changing things difficult to impossible, and though we possess all manner of magic wands here, there are technological beasts out there that are beyond our grasp. Sometimes, we may not feel it is within the spirit and vision of the spiral to add or change something. Also, we realize that some of these topics may have been addressed before in other threads - sometimes it's good to pick up a discussion again. Chances are I have read your threads and would like to hear more! | | | | |

 PvP Stun Shield Update
Scaling stun shields have been added to PvP combat. When a player is stunned by a spell, the number of stun shields that appear on that stunned player are equal to the number of players on the opposing team.
If you are stunned by a spell in a 1v1, one Stun Shield will appear.
If you are stunned by a spell in a 2v2, two Stun Shields will appear.
If you are stunned by a spell in a 3v3, three Stun Shields will appear.
If you are stunned by a spell in a 4v4, four Stun Shields will appear.

GamingAngels Offering National Computer Camp ScholarshipGamingAngels.com and National Computer Camp have teamed up to offer a scholarship for the NCC’s June/July 2011 enrollment (valued at $985) to one female student (ages 8-18) for one week. At NCC, campers design a 2D or 3D video game, learn to program, create a graphic video, take apart a computer, create a home page, play tennis, play games such as Civilization, and generally make new friends. Now in its 34th year, NCC is America's original computer camp with locations in Connecticut, Georgia, New York, and Ohio.
"We’re excited to offer this scholarship on GamingAngels.com," said Trina Finton, CEO and Founder of GamingAngels.com. "It is important to encourage young women to explore technology. As an IT professional, I wish I could have attended a computer camp at that age. We’re looking for scholarship applicants that are excited about the opportunity. In their essay, we want them to explain how their game design ideas would improve their favorite game. The winner will have an exciting summer at a great computer camp program where she’ll learn how to create video games."
National Computer Camp provides an opportunity for young people from all parts of the United States and around the world to interact creatively. This harmonic integration of young minds is the primary focus of NCC. Computer camp is the brainchild of Dr. Michael Zabinski who was awarded several federal grants to train teachers to integrate computers into their classrooms. In an effort to reach young people personally, he established the first of these educational summer camps, coining the phrase “computer camps” to describe them, and then founded NCC.
