The Official Alyssa's Star Challenge Thread

To access Alyssa's Star Challenge, go into the Charm Forest under the Things To Do MENU and to the far left is the fairy Alyssa click on her. I suggest you see Alyssa before you go charming, because often if I do charming first Alyssa freezes up.

Ok, here is some advice:

You can click on the shiny little stars or you can wait and see if a comet flies by.
Sometimes you will see a comet and you have to try to catch it. sometimes you will only get the fancy words "shooting star" and sometimes it shows a colored comet. If you get a comet you win a prize.
Like a piece for the space suit. If you get the fancy words you get ---fancy words.

If you click on a star and catch one, Alyssa will offer to trade you for it. She will offer you a pixie puck worth KC. If you choose to trade you do not get a puck. you get KC. If you miss it says miss and you keep trying.
I did sell one of my stars and I didn't get the puck--just the cash value

I think this is like Arte. you need to try and collect them all and in the end you should get the throne. I think it is a glitch that some ppl have received one in their docks already
see post 110 for a pic of the throne!!!

Once you find something your turn is over, just like in the gem hunt.

It helps to keep track of your stars with the help of a checklist

Sun Sparks

* Web Wonder
* Zinglow
* Spectaculight
* Enchantrite
* Pyro Pearl
* Lightening Lantern
* Illustrolite


Glow Flakes

* Nocturnite
* Magmimite
* Deelight
* Divinadime
* Moon Bloom
* Flouraflite
* Frost Flake


Astro Emblems

* Marrowmile
* Chlorocosmo
* Skyprint
* Nightnote
* Blushing Bulb
* Twilight Twinkle
* Lunamite

Also if you get more than one of the same star you keep multiples like in the gem hunt


As you collect your stars you will notice a change in the center of the page


The first day the star challenge was added to WW some lucky ppl found the grand prize throne in their docks:

FROM BERT X

Quote:
My info shows that all of the Astro stars can be found in Charm Fairy, Chef Gazpacho, Knight of the Round, POTM Medal, Wishing Well, and Zingoz constellations.

All of the Glow Flake stars can be found in Knight of the Round, Plumpy, POTM Medal, and Wishing Well.

And finally, that all Sun Sparks can be found in Plumpy, Wishing Well and Zingoz.

This leads to a VERY simple strategy that would find ALL of the stars!!

First, look at which type of star you need the most of, then this is your plan for that day:

If you need Astro Stars, click on Zingoz, Wishing Well, and POTM Ribbon. Do them in that order too, it will give the best chance of finding other rare stars.

For the Glow Flakes, click on Wishing Well, POTM Ribbon, and Plumpy -- again in that order.

To get Sun Sparks, click on Zingoz, Wishing Well, and Plumpy, in that order.

It is surprising, but true, that you only need to click on these 4 constellations to find every possible star!!

Of course, you will find many other stars in those constellations too, but eventually you should get the ones wanted. At least this assures that you are looking in the right places, much like choosing the correct mine in the gem hunt.[/color]

By the way, the Sun Sparks are a very hard group to find -- out of the 8 rarest stars, 6 are Sun Sparks, so look for those the most.

Stars found least often have been Lunamite (#1 Astro), Frost Flake (#1 Glow Flake) and then all of the Sun Sparks, except the Zinglow.

In order to help you find the locations the four main constellations mentioned by BERT_X, here are pictures of how they look before and after they have been clicked. Finding the correct star color and arrangement can be tricky but this should help you out:

If you have not done your star search today please help.

PLEASE if you all could keep track of what stars you click on and post that info it could help WI figure out if there is a pattern to collecting certain stars from certain clicks (constellation).

For example. if you click on a star and you get Arte's face and you have found a star You can write down

top right -Arte - yellow star-- Zinglow
and if you want you can write the amount Alyssa offered you (60)

If your not sure about the color, the location will tell us.
This can help us figure out how to find all the different star's and then unlock the big prize (the throne). or it can help you figure out where the expensive stars are. please everyones help makes a huge difference. Please post your findings on EXOTERIC's thread.

ALYSSA's STAR CHALLENGE (ASC)
===============================
Mapping the sky and comet prizes.

Alyssa's Stars

Many WI members are contributing data to see if there is a pattern to finding Alyssa's Stars.

Get involved and post your findings daily or weekly. The thread is always being updated. I spend about an hour each day on the updates.

It's VERY important that attention be given to the 'click-able' star's location in the Constellation (there's 2 per constellation). It is MUCH better to mention the 'click-able' star by it's location in the Constellation and not by it's color.

Collecting this data will help us approximate which constellation to search when looking for one of Alyssa's Stars.

We are trying to map the sky with this data and see if a pattern emerges but it may simply be random as well. Keep posting and feel free to use the current information to find a Star you need!

Please remember the click-able star's Location in the Constellation::

At first we asked you post the color of the click-able star but there has been some confusion as some people see colors different and screen displays may vary per user.

Therefore, it is essential that you list the click-able star location you clicked (not just their colors) that reveal the constellation. Each Constellation has 2 click-able stars. Please see images below.

For example each Constellation will have two stars to click on in:

A. Top right or top left

and

B. Bottom left or bottom left

Also, mention if you get a Star from the same click-able star even if it's been posted before. Repeat information is useful too.

============================================================

Collect this Data ::

1. What constellation you found Alyssa's Star?

2. What click-able star you clicked on?
(Top/Right or Left OR Bottom/Right or Left)

2. The Name of the Star you found?

3. How much Alyssa offered you?

Post like this ::

Arte - Top Right - Zinglow [50]

<Constellation> TOP/ left or right or BOTTOM /Left or Right <Star received> [Value]

Posting like this is much easier for me to read and update - TY

The Click-able Stars: (2 per Constellation)

The click-able stars are positioned:

A. near the top, either right or left in the constellation
OR
B. near the bottom either right or left in the constellation

*except, some are just on the top and bottom (like zingoz).

Posting your results by using the click-able star position is more precise than saying it's color. When the data was first being collected we said the color of the star we clicked on, but that left a margin of error if someone saw a blue star as a purple star and a green star as blue star ect. So, saying Top Right, Top Left, Bottom Right, Bottom Left or Top or Bottom is the very best way to describe what star you clicked on.

It is far better to list the click-able stars by their 'location' in the constellation. If you look at the picture attached here you will see all the constellations' click-able stars. It shows the constellation before and after you click on it.

Comets and prizes (Comet colors and Prizes)

SHOOTING STAR OR COMET INFO::

You see a shooting star...you click on it. That shooting star MAY contain a comet. If it does not contain a comet it will reveal the word SHOOTING STAR across the screen (you will not get any prizes) and if you have any turns left you can continue to look for more stars. There will only be one shooting star per account. It can sometimes come after the first constellation you click on. I find it usually appears within 25 seconds and the net will disappear just before it shows up.

If it does contain a comet, Alyssa will appear on the screen with a colored comet, [there are 5 different colors] and from the data collected it appears as though each color comet will randomly yield one of 5 prizes as listed below. You will not have any more chances to search for stars after winning a prize.

Results:

It does not matter what height the shooting star or the color of the comet as it is always random.

One member reported winning a Kinzplasma Television from a comet (no comet color mentionned) = this may have been a glitch.

Some have also received the Color Catastrophe book (which was an item previously purchased with a code). = this may have been a glitch.

And, when it was first launched others prematurely received the throne which is believed to be one of the grand prizes.

Please post your findings as follows::

1. Comet Color: Green / Pink / Blue / Yellow / Purple
2. Was the shooting star or comet flying higher or lower on your screen?
3. Prize received: Solar Shoes / Solar Slacks / Solar Helmet / Solar Belt / Solar Jacket


Updated to post #281
Data collected so far::

Green: Solar Boots [5] Jacket [17]
Pink Comet: Solar Slacks [8]
Blue: Solar Helmet [18]
Yellow Comet: Solar Belt [10]

ALYSSA's STAR CHALLENGE PICTURES & CHAT THREAD by CHAOTIC

Deep down in the Charm Forest where the the Horizon meets the sky..a few Webkinz gear up with their telescopes and spot some very special constellations. They use their dandy little nets to scoop up Alyssa's magical stars. Sometimes they are lucky enough to capture the much sought after comets using their space shuttles, flying saucers and flyers! After a night of star gazing the elite Star Catchers retire to a charm infused space theme room.
