Viva Piñata: Trouble in Paradise recently arrived on my doorstep, thanks to a very kind and generous friend of mine. I was horribly addicted to the first version, easily logging over 100 hours on that game. Many days and many nights were spent romancing my piñatas, separating fights, building homes, growing gardens, buying accessories, and basically becoming a Viva Piñata master. A new adventure awaits me with the sequel, and thus a new adventure awaits you as well. In this game you have the ability to name your piñatas and that is where you come in. If you would like to be a piñata in my garden and have your existence chronicled, just sign up here. I’ll do occasional updates on who is getting it on along with all of their basic entertaining adventures. Do be aware there are risks involved as you may have an untimely end (I cannot be held responsible if you get eaten by another piñata) or if you are promiscous around my garden, others will find out. I also have plans to accessorize many of you in the most embarassing and cutest way possible. So just leave a comment if you want to be a resident in my garden and updates will start shortly!

Posted by alakai on October 8, 2008 at 1:54 pm
Yes please!
(*goes to garden to name his squazzil “Hawty”)
Posted by ALTEX on October 8, 2008 at 2:02 pm
sounds awesome, i’m in for it.
and let us know how the game is, i loved the first one but i’m not sure about buying the new incase it’s just the same game.
Posted by ReverendTiki on October 8, 2008 at 2:14 pm
Yes please. I hope i dont get eaten or die. Lets hope for the sake of us all that Hawty is better at Viva then Halo!
Posted by bs angel on October 8, 2008 at 2:17 pm
You chose a good time to start commenting Sniperfive40. This should be fun!
I was a level 106 in the first game if that tells you anything ReverendTiki. The beginning will be rough since some pinatas have to eat other pinatas as mating requirements but I’ll just reincarnate anybody who gets killed off. :)
And Squazzils are one of my favorite alakai!
Posted by Rhamsey on October 8, 2008 at 2:19 pm
my friend had a pinata named after me in the first game. a roario worth well over 30k. but, he killed let me die when i was sick (within 2 days too). something im sure he would do in real life if he has the chance.
anyway, i trust you so much more than my friend. so i would love to be one of your pinatas! i just hope that my pinata is the one eating others, not being eaten.
Posted by Tristan on October 8, 2008 at 2:19 pm
I want to be in ! =D
Posted by Eloco on October 8, 2008 at 2:36 pm

Posted by Nid on October 8, 2008 at 2:43 pm
Love this game. Can I be a Geckie called Nid? Thanks.
Posted by soulofaqua on October 8, 2008 at 2:49 pm
I say… A pinata named after me? Count me in daer!
Posted by Jim 028 on October 8, 2008 at 2:51 pm
Sounds like fun. I’m sure I will be a pleasant addition to your garden. :)
Posted by Stuicide on October 8, 2008 at 2:52 pm
Yes, I need to be in this magical garden of angel’s.
Remember, I supported your first foray into Pinata crazed gaming.
Posted by Qix on October 8, 2008 at 2:56 pm
This is a great idea. Look forward to seeing MendicantBias gettting eaten by SoulOfAqua.

Are we going to get screen-shots of our namesakes?
Posted by bs angel on October 8, 2008 at 3:33 pm
I’ll snap some pics once I start putting accessories on everybody, definitely!
And don’t be afraid to keep signing up. There are more than enough piñatas to go around. :)
Posted by Morphen Jar on October 8, 2008 at 4:10 pm

Posted by AT-AT on October 8, 2008 at 4:53 pm
Do they even have walking tank pinatas?
Posted by Fogun on October 8, 2008 at 5:44 pm
Yes, I’d love to participate in this as well.
Posted by bs angel on October 8, 2008 at 5:51 pm
I think they have llama thingies AT-AT. That should be close enough. LOL, …
This will be fun! I remember my friends would just think I was so weird any time I would talk about what was going on in my Viva Pinata garden back with the first version. I expect it to go just the same this time around as well. :)
Posted by Mrs Doublefire on October 8, 2008 at 6:10 pm
Count me in.
Posted by Waffle Deluxe on October 8, 2008 at 6:30 pm
here to hoping to not end up being an emo pinata!
Posted by Trader Sam on October 8, 2008 at 6:42 pm
Some part of me is terrified to see where this is going, but hey I’ll volunteer my name. Hopefully I’ll have the game soon, I found the original reminded me of the countless hours spent playing Harvest Moon on the SNES.
Posted by JawReich on October 8, 2008 at 7:02 pm
Put me in there please! :) Ought to be fun.
Posted by Das Kalk on October 8, 2008 at 7:12 pm
now i really want to play this game, but there’s too many others coming out… in a side note, Hawty, I would be honored to be a pinata in your world.
Posted by Senor Leche on October 8, 2008 at 9:15 pm
Can I be a frog (I think they’re called Lickatoads)? I’ve always wanted to be a Prince in disguise.
Posted by TTL Tortacular on October 8, 2008 at 10:19 pm
I’m pretty offended that I wasn’t already in your Pinata garden.
Posted by CancaN05 on October 8, 2008 at 10:59 pm

I’ll sign up, but it looks like you’ve got plenty already
Posted by bs angel on October 9, 2008 at 11:14 am
No worries Naepa, I’ll add you to the list! There are tons of piñatas in the garden at any given time, plus they get eaten and and smashed frequently too so I will be cycling people in and out. There’s room for everybody!
Posted by DareDizzle on October 9, 2008 at 11:15 am
Oh man, daredizzle, or DrDreHole, or Gm’sWifeSmasher will all work if i can grab a spot in your garden (umm, sorry if that sounded dirty in any way)
Posted by Naepa34 on October 9, 2008 at 12:23 pm
Do we get to know what kind of pinata we…or our viva internet selves…are?
Posted by e house on October 9, 2008 at 2:41 pm

I was in the middle of my first official VP addiction when i RRoD’d (friday night) . . . almost level 50 . . . now 2 weeks of no gardening.

Posted by Herr General on October 9, 2008 at 4:57 pm
Sure, I’ll join.
Posted by Trixie on October 15, 2008 at 11:19 am
Hi Hawty!
I would LOVE to be a squazzil! Or maybe a preztail! :) I’m more hooked on VP:TIP than I was on the first one….and thats really sayin something! I grew my first palm tree last night. :) I’m at a level 37 or 38 I think. So far to go!
I will name one of mine after you as well. Love your site…always entertaining!
