How does everyone out there like this place so far? There seems to be one common problem between all of us. Acquiring CLAMS! Yes, this does appear difficult, but there are a few ways that this article may help you out. Here is a list of some of the easier things you can do to gain clams.

• You can go to the bullentin boards and post a message or two. Even the responses that people give you gain you clams!

• Go to the left-hand side of almost any page you can go to in Whyville, and look at the top of the bus. Click on the red satchel. When you reach the page that this takes you to, click on the top, middle button. This will not only tell you how many clams you'll earn in the next upcoming week, but if you click on the blue print, you can go directly to the games and such that earn you points!

  For example, solving the "Spin It!" game will earn you some points depending on the award you get.

• After this, go to the top, right-most button. Once this page pops up there are a few other links to games, but these will be in your bonus category. These games are a little more difficult, but the easier way to get clams is voting on your favorite room, house, or face.

These are all only a few ways to get clams around here, and maybe if you do go to the boards, people will respond and tell you other ways. So, how much easier could it actually get?

Ok, all you Whyvillians. Every one has been asking the same question:"How do I get more clams?" Here's an answer. You can:

• write an article for the Times
• play a Spinlab game
• submit something for the Sun Spot
• go into the House of Illusions and look at all the illusions
• post on the BBS

There! I hope that solves some of your problems. Myself, I do some of these, but I have 4 clams because I spend a lot of clams.
