Founders' Beta has been a real success and it’s thanks to you!  As the game winds down and officially closes at midnight EST on November 8, 2008, the time has come for the last, the greatest, the best event yet: the Founders’ Finale! We’re making the countdown to the end of this Founders’ Beta a lot of fun, and we’ll be giving away real diamond pendants generously provided by MBLife, so join any (or all!) of the contests in the Founders' Finale for a chance to win!

The action starts on November 7, 2008 at 9pm EST. Here are the activities.

Blog For Thought

Share your Hello Kitty Online story!  Use your SanrioTown account blog to write about your experiences in the game, your best or funniest moments, the friends you met in the game, or anything related to HKO.  Creativity is king here!  Add photos, videos or music to make your blog post better.

Crop Circles

Show off the precision of your landscaping skills!  Nothing is more refreshing than a day in a beautifully landscaped garden.  Use your farm to arrange your crops to grow into shapes or patterns, make colorful combinations, or draw a picture made of crops!  

A Day With Hello Kitty and Friends

Got a talent for art?  This one is for you!  Draw your avatar together with Hello Kitty and her friends. Your drawing must be about something you have done in Sanrio Land – for example, planting your farm, cooking for charity, running back and forth on quests, or anything else you enjoyed doing in Sanrio Land!

Body Doubles

Do you look like your Hello Kitty Online avatar?  Send us pictures!  Mix and match avatar clothes and hairstyles or dress yourself up in real life to look like your avatar!   We will pick two winners (one male avatar and one female avatar) based on similarities between their photograph and their HKO avatar!

The Kevent

The Kevent is an obscure event shrouded in mystery, wrapped in enigma, riddled with puzzles, surrounded by inscrutability, and doused with a healthy dose of bewilderment.  And that’s as much as we’re going to tell you about The Kevent. What is The Kevent? You’ll have to log in to find out more!

See the HKO Event Blog for the respective deadlines of each event.

We are grateful to you for participating in Hello Kitty Online and helping us to work on the game.  All participants of the Founders’ Beta will receive special privileges in future versions of Hello Kitty Online. Furthermore, players who have completed the Build New York quests and competitions will receive special recognition in the New York City zone in future versions of the North American edition of Hello Kitty Online.
