Massive Brawl Inside YoWorld Salon

YOWORLD - A massive brawl has taken place at the Salon in south west YoWorld earlier today resulting in multiple arrests and a temporary shutdown of all Salon servers.


    The mayhem began this afternoon when one of the notorious challenges that BVG has offered to players in which the player must perform an action or dance at a location in order to unlock prizes was finally available. Of course to much anticipation, hundreds of players stampeded to salon servers in order to perform the "impatient" action in order to unlock a fun house mirror, the only problem was that the challenge was supposed to be done indoors, causing the limited space and extra lag due to so many players entering through the doors to be nearly impossible obstacles to get around. Those who got in were bombarded with friend requests and accidental badge clicks due to the lag effecting their cursors clicking the "impatient" action, causing high tensions and eventually altercations.

Not much more is known at this time about the details of the fight and suspects, but it is believed that YoWorld Police arrived 10 minutes later and were able to arrest at least 5 people, while witnesses claim that 3-4 more brawlers fled the scene after authorities were notified. More will be reported after the investigation

Beauregard Rosewood Assaulted Outside of Nightclub

A hectic scene took place outside of the Sky Nightclub in Central YoWorld last night ending in injuries and arrests.

Beauregard Rosewood, famed capitalist in YoWorld was attending a cocktail party in the upstairs lounge of the club on Thursday night with his fellow family member Maria when he was confronted by popular Metal singer SLOP who has been known to revolt against the Rosewood family in the past. Beauregard reportedly bumped into SLOP near the bar area and chaos ensued with SLOP yelling slurs and shoving Beauregard repeatedly. After Maria and other Rosewoods got involved in the argument, SLOP according to witnesses "lost it" and punched Beauregard in the face knocking him down and repeatedly striking him on the ground with punches and kicks.

Police were eventually contacted by witnesses and they rushed inside to pull SLOP off of Beauregard during the fight. Beauregard was unconscious by the time authorities arrived and had to be carried out by paramedics where he eventually regained consciousness outside of the club as SLOP was being escorted into a police car. Maria

and others were reportedly "in shock" and have refused to comment on the situation.

SLOP was later released on 1,000 coins bond and has to take anger management classes. A court order is set to ensure that SLOP has to stay 500 feet away from all Rosewoods.

David Anderson Files Appeal to BVG

   Today has definitely been eventful in the city of YoWorld, especially for David Anderson, former entrepreneur who was notably banned on his main account over two years ago for reasons still not specified by Big Viking Games.

    Anderson, 17, filed an appeal on his second account today in order to get unbanned. The company has not issued a statement yet, but will in the forseeable future along with a verdict.

"I'm not really confident to be honest. They give you a 200 word limit and you have to somehow make your reason valid, which is tough considering how strict they are. If I do get unbanned, I will be forever grateful for being allowed a second chance and I will change my ways for the better. If I'm NOT unbanned, I will forever hold a grudge and spread the word about how I was targeted for no reason. I am not giving an ultimatum, just stating the two directions my life will go depending on the verdict."

Fist Fight Outside Music Store

The Music Store in South YoWorld is back open today after a fist fight caused some damage to the exterior.


    At about 1:15pm today, YoWorld police were dispatched to the music store because of two men fighting and arguing in the street and blocking traffic as well as causing damage to the windows of the store.

Jim Polanski, 23 and Mark Seymour, 22 were inside of the store browsing the music gear before the fight broke out. Witnesses say that they were reportedly arguing over a limited edition Fender Stratocaster when Seymour shoved Polanski, causing him to get irate. Eventually throwing fists and causing a disturbance, the employee behind the counter shoved both men outside of the store and locked the doors in an effort to break up the fight and send the men their separate ways, however the attempt failed and both of the men started fighting in the street and throwing each other against the outside of the building, cracking windows and causing damage to the doors.

Police eventually arrived after multiple witnesses called 911 and took the suspects away in handcuffs. Both men are being charged with assault, battery and disturbing the peace.

Meth Lab Found in Vinny's Diner

YoWorld Police have confirmed that the meth lab found in today's drug bust belonged to Vinny, 36 of YoWorld who owns the diner and formerly worked at the coffee shop.

    After being thrown out after an argument with the diner owner, Jon Henderson notified the police of a strange smell and small amount of smoke billowing from below the building. Police from all over rushed to the scene to question Vinny, but he refused to open the doors of the diner for investigation. Vinny then pulled out a pistol and threatened to shoot unless they left to which they called the YoWorld SWAT team. They eventually busted open the door and Vinny was taken into custody.

Within minutes of searching the diner, authorites came across an entire meth lab in the basement of the diner. When asked by police, Vinny explained that he wasn't making enough money from selling food because energy was discontinued, forcing him to take a dark road.

The employee at the Furniture Store next store to Vinny's Diner declined to comment.

Police and hazardous waste professionals have closed the doors to the diner and boarded up the windows to avoid the press and random citizens wandering into the building.


Vinny is currently incarcerated at YoWorld Correctional Facility and will be charged with Assault, resisting arrest, disturbing the peace and possession of methamphetamine. He may be sentenced to 1-2 years.

Outrage Over YoCash Prices

Many people have been expressing outrage these past few days in YoWorld. The reason is none other than YoCash prices.

Big Viking Games offered a new promotion for YoCash last week which caused an uproar in the forums. The "deal" was 20 YoCash for $4.99 USD. Many players, including gold supporters expressed their opinions and claimed that unless the deal was 50 YC for $4.99, they wouldn't be buying it and would take it as far as boycotting YoCash completely.

Our reporters went down to the Factory District of YoWorld and asked some noobs for their opinions on the ordeal. Many said that this debacle is reminiscent of the YoCash Boycott of 2009 where hundreds of noobs joined together, attempting to rid the game of the currency completely as many were struggling to make coins to buy food for energy, get clothes and have a good experience overall.

Viking Jess commented "We won't force anyone to buy anything, so you're more than welcome to hold out for a deal like that! Different deals for different players "


Local YoWorld player BrandonPLUSH also commented 

"I think the reason behind all these deals having less YoCash is due to the glitch in the mobile companion app. If the monthly active players of YoWorld are 70,000 and the google play store says that the app has 10 thousand downloads, I don't think that includes the apple store."

     While BVG staff has promised changes to the prices, many citizens are still confused and are not quite sure what to think. Big Viking Games has a history of taking advantage of people's money, so who is to say there won't be an uprising against the company in the foreseeable future? More info on this story tomorrow.

YoWorld Stock Market Hits Record High

YoWorld equities notched fresh record highs on Thursday thanks to comments from the President of YoWorld  that specific tax reform plans — something “phenomenal” in his words — would be announced in the next two or three weeks. This single handedly revitalized the pro-YoWorld dynamic on YoWall Street that had faded in recent days amid political bickering, a poorly received increase in YoCash prices and worries over possible trade wars.

This also restores some of the worry that players would give the stock market the cold shoulder. As the prices keep going up, more and more players are investing as the lottery ticket industry is starting to receive numerous complaints and boycotts due to being rigged and unfair.

In the end, the Yeiland Wutani Corp moved up 193.51% , the Rick Roll Industries moved up to 1.85% , the  Get Jazzed Corp also moved up 0.6% and the Schrodinger's Financial moved 70% higher. Treasury bonds came under pressure, snapping a four-day winning streak; the YoCoin was strong against the Farmville Coin; oil gained 1.3%, despite some very bearish inventory data earlier this week; and gold drifted lower.

Yoworld Scammers Banned From Game

Today was a successful day for Big Viking Games, current owners of YoWorld as over 5 notable scammers were caught in the act and banned from the game.

    After receiving numerous reports from players around the city and eventually investigating a YouTube channel dedicated to busting scammers, moderators from BVG caught up to the alleged scammers in the Alton Tower district of the city. Names have not been announced as of now, but Viking Drew issued this statement;

"Names of the scammers are obviously out in the public due to all of the controversy surrounding them, though they were later changed to avoid being caught. We don't really feel comfortable releasing IPs and names as we still need to protect players privacy no matter what crime they have committed."

Fellow friends of the scammers declined to comment when our reporters caught up with them at Vinny's Diner on the west side of the city.

The crimes include: Money laundering, pyramid schemes and a price jacking business. A prostitution ring was also shut down, but had no connection to the scammers.

No more information was given about the massive bust as only Drew agreed to speak with us. More on this story tomorrow.
