PIMD: What to trade or keep?
Party in my dorm tutorial -What to trade or keep?
Items you cannot give away, trade or even gift:
Pets or Pet Supply Boxes
Hunt collection items (Most)
Timer boxes
Lite Boxes
Cash
Extra Credit
Pim Key
Furniture Key
Avatars
You can drop the following for other people at their parties but you cannot trade or gift these:
Cats
Bikinis
Good items to trade:
Shards
Furniture
Stat Items
Spinner Items
What to keep:
Bentos
Chibis
This is considered currency in PIMD. It’s good to save all of these. I would only use these when you absoltuely have too.
*Note*
A lot of people will overprice items and want you to pay in bentos or chibis. I was looking for a certain type of shards and wanted to trade with somebody.
I got so many posts on my wall where people said you can buy these shards for me for “Blank” amount of bentos. You do not need to accept these trades.
There are plenty of people who will trade without bentos or chibis.
Hunt Boxes:
People on the game will want to sell their hunt boxes (the ones that are tradeable) for bentos and chibis. Do not buy them. This is a rip off because in order to open these
boxes, you will need pim keys and in order to get pim keys, you need to pay real money and lots of it. If you pay for these using bentos or chibis, you are basically paying twice.
How to get extra hunt boxes?
If you are willingly to pay real money to open these boxes, you can ask in chat if somebody will gift or trade with you for some. There are a lot of people that do not want these boxes and will just gift them to you.
If you go the trade route, I would trade other items that are not bentos or chibis for them.
Good items to gift at Cat or Pizza Bikini parties:
If always expected in most clubs to gift the dropper of the cat or pizza bikini because the cat or bikini can cost real money and you need these items in order for the party to start.
Here’s a list of good gifts: (1 gift is usually acceptable unless otherwise noted)
Stat items
Amps
Chibis (Some people give these – I don’t)
Furniture (Not starter furniture)
Current hunt boxes(Some people don’t want hunt boxes because they don’t have the funds to open them-Check first)
Spinner Items
Here’s the bad list:
Non-stat items
1 Shard (If you have to give shards – give 5 to 10)
Old hunt boxes
Wallpaper or flooring (This is a dull gift)

IPAD Time Waster: Avakin Life
Avakin Life
Genre: Social
Summary: You have an avatar in which you use to socialize with other people.
Thoughts:
I thought this was a pretty decent game especially if you are into socializing with other human beings. I did not find the avatars all that great looking and noticed if you wanted to change your look, it would cost some money. At that point, I was just like “Fuck it,” I’ll be ugly. You do start out with an apartment which was unfurnished. I did somehow get a free unicorn and a dog but I am unsure how I did that. There seemed to be a ton of places to venture off too (Bars, parks, etc) and several events that were also going on. My first journey was at a bar because I wanted to know if my avatar could get drunk. I could not figure out how to order anything and then realized that probably cost cash too. So then, I went to a dog park. I left my dog at home though. Time was well spent at the park because I met my first friend, Martin. (He was wearing a ball gag but seemed very nice) He encouraged me to find a job after I explained to him that I needed a lot of cash to get drunk. I asked him what kind of jobs were available to a person of my quality. I told him my interests were stripping and coupon clipping. He said he would help me find my dream job. That was exciting news, I had a new friend and would soon be employed and making lots of cash. After our serious employment chat, I asked Martin to be my mail order bride. I had to log after that so hopefully, he says yes soon.
Recommend:
I would recommend this game because it is casual and relaxing. There was no goal to the game other than finding friends. My only real issue was camera movement and walking. This is a personal issue because I’m really bad at reading directions.
Covet Fashion: Tips for beginners
Tips for beginners:
Daily: Every day, Covet rewards you with 100 diamonds and 20 tickets.
Enter daily challenge.:
This is the best challenge to enter everyday because there is no restrictions and you earn $500 covet cash just for entering.
I like this one because I can put on any unworn outfit and enter. I don’t ever expect a high score with this one since I’m using whatever outfit I have but eventually that daily 500 cash adds up!
Flashback Challenges:
If you are a beginner and low on funds, do not enter the flash back challenges. These challenges can be really expensive!
The flashback challenges require several pieces from previous seasons and if you do not have those items, you will have to buy them.
Jet Set Challenges:
You can do the jet set challenges as many times as you want.
You do not earn prizes with these challenges but you do earn stars. Stars will help you unlock other jet set levels and you can earn 500 diamonds.
Jet Set Challenges usually only last 8 hours and voting begins. So you find out results pretty quick. These challenges are also easy to win.
Series Challenges:
If you have the funds to spend, do the series challenges. These are like 5 to 8 challenges.
If you do all of them, the prizes are really good and this is only for entering them all!
The only thing that really sucks as a beginner, you usually have to buy 2 to 4 pieces per challenge.
Borrow:
You can borrow items from Facebook friends and if you are in a fashion house – you can borrow them too.
You can only borrow 1 item per challenge.
Style:
Pairing the right hair and makeup can bring up the score of your look when it comes to voters.
Eventually, in higher levels, details are going to be very important. (Jewelry, handbags, etc.)
I noticed short hair and albino skin do not do well in voting. Voters tend to like long hair and tanned/darker skin tones. (Just my opinion though)
You can view the top looks on the front page and that will give you a good idea on how people vote. I noticed a lot of voters have shit taste too. I don’t know why.
Diamonds:
If you are going to buy diamonds, wait until Covet Fashion has a sale. They have a lot of sales!
Challenge Themes:
All the challenges have some sort of theme going on. Pay attention to the picture and the description of the theme.
Many voters will not vote for your look if it resembles nothing to the theme.
Funds:
Save your funds and only buy what you need for a challenge. Items cost an arm and a leg and you will run out of money very quickly.
When you do have to buy something, keep in mind that you might need that outfit in another challenge. Pick items that can be paired with other things.
Likes:
Likes do nothing to help you. It just shows that somebody thought your outfit was cool. It does not help with voting.
Unworn & Season:
Max your unworn & season bonus if you can. This can put a 3.5 score outfit over 4.0 which will land you a prize.
Edit:
You can edit an outfit up until it’s closed out for voting. This is handy if you don’t have the covet cash to buy something. Enter the challenge anyway, get the entry reward and then edit the outfit and buy the item you need with it.
Tucking in Shirts:
There is a tuck button that will tuck in a shirt. This will give your outfit an entirely different look and is helpful if a lot of people are going to be wearing the same look and you want to set yourself apart.
Models:
You can switch from classic to modern models as many times as you want. If you entered a challenge with one type of model, you have to stay with the model until the challenge is over.
Pro Tip:
Do not try to enter every challenge. This game can be addicting and you can end up paying a lot of real money to play it. Start with the Jet Set & Daily Challenges. Save your diamonds and $500 covet cash for a few days and then enter another challenge. Pacing yourself is key.
