User blog:Anomalous13/Bloons Wiki News - April 10, 2012

Hello everyone, it's already time for another news blog.

Bloons 2

 * Bloons 2 is still on its Christmas update, so I don't think anything recent has happened with the game. Please notify me if I'm wrong.

Bloons Tower Defense 5
Snake River is an intermediate level track where the Bloons enter from two separate parts of the track which later join into one. Tower placements are a bit tricky here. Read more about Snake River here.
 * Many people are considering the Spike Factory to be overpowered. Do you agree with this claim? Let others know in the comments!
 * As usual, there is a new Daily Challenge today, titled "The Power of Three...Types of Towers." In this Daily Challenge, you must complete Mount Magma on Medium Difficulty using only Boomerang Throwers, Ninja Monkeys, and Monkey Apprentices. 50 Monkey Money is awarded for completing this Daily Challenge.
 * BTD5 is already at Update #12; and this update is a big one. First, Update #12 patched any various bugs. The main highlight of this update is that it includes two new tracks, Snake River and Bloontonium Lab.

Bloontonium Lab is an expert level track which has unique traits. First, you must be rank 60 or higher to play on this track, and it costs 50 Monkey Money per attempt. Also, you cannot save your progress and no Monkey Money is earned for completing it. Read more about Bloontonium Lab here.

General

 * More people are actually contributing to the wiki now. I appreciate this a lot. On the other hand, there hasn't been many spammers on the wiki lately, mainly because most of them were blocked.
 * Idea pages are actually going on blog posts now. It's about time.
 * Juicestain09 is still missing. Are you behind this E360?

Poll
The poll is still up until April 15! Go on the main page and vote if you haven't already! By the way, if you're wondering why Snake River and Bloontonium Lab aren't choices on the poll, it's because they were created quite some time after the poll was created. Editing the poll would cause rather irritating problems. Don't worry, I'll do another poll on BTD tracks sometime in the future.

Additional Stuff

 * The original Bloons Tower Defense is so fun. Popping Black Bloons is rather hard compared to popping them in Bloons Tower Defense 5.
 * I tried playing Bloontonium Lab on Hard Difficulty. It did not go well. lol
 * Would anyone like to help me with Bloons Tower Defense 2? 280 cash for a Dart Monkey is rather overpriced.
