Post 4: Fishing
Fish
Bass'ken Lake
Found: Bass'ken Lake, Daily Chance, Dumpster Dive, marketplace Used For: Fish can be exchanged at the Fish Exchanged for rarer fish, aquarium fish and equippable items. Fish are used as a component in some Alchemy formulas.
Port of Gambino Found: Port of Gambino, Daily Chance, Dumpster Dive, marketplace Used For: Fish can be exchanged at the Fish Exchanged for rarer fish, aquarium fish and equippable items. Fish are used as a component in some Alchemy formulas.
Durem Reclamation Facility Found: Durem Reclamation Facility, Daily Chance, Dumpster Dive, marketplace Used For: Fish can be exchanged at the Fish Exchanged for rarer fish, aquarium fish and equippable items. Fish are used as a component in some Alchemy formulas.
--- will list names of fish in paragraph form, then link to the guide for further info. no images. Listing each fish vertically would be an unnecessary page stretch.
A Quick Explanation of Fish
This post refers to the fish that are found in the Game Items tab of the inventory. This does not refer to fish for your aquarium that are found in the Aquarium Items tab of the inventory.
Fish can be obtained in a variety of ways: Dumpster Diving, collecting Daily Chance and playing the Fishing game. The Fishing game is the first, and main, source of fish. When the Dumpster is empty, The Admin will sometimes grant fish *** check. Fish are sometimes granted through the Daily Chance. The rarer the fish, the less likely you are to encounter it in the Daily Chance. Fish can also be obtained by exchanging more common fish for rarer fish. This is a quick explanation, so please refer to the guides for more info.
Fish have multiple purposes:
Fish can be exchanged at The Ole Fishing Hole: Exchange Fish for a variety of fishy clothing items. You can also use the Exchange Fish to trade in common fish for fish that are more rare. You will end up with less total fish, however this is a good option for those who have trouble catching the rarer fish. The fish caught in this game can also be exchanged for aquarium fish. (Keep in mind that fish tagged [lite] do not drop gold in Booty Grab games.) This exchange is not worth it. Fish are a component of some alchemy formulas. If you're not interested in Alchemy or exchanging your fish for items, Alchemists (and other fishermen) will love to buy your fish!
A Quick Explanation of Fishing
Fishing is a mini-game you can find under the games tab. There are three fishing spots to choose from, in increasing difficulty: Bass'ken Lake, Port of Gambino, Durem Reclamation Facility. In other words, start at Bass'ken lake and work your way up to catching the tougher fish at the other spots.
In Fishing, you reel in fish (or junk) by opposing the fish's movement with your mouse. You will need a fishing rod and some bait. Each game will cost one bait. Each game ends once you fill your bucket (catch 18 total fish and/or junk). You can buy fish and bait at The Ole Fishing Hole shop.
The three fishing spots have different species of fish that can be caught. Those fish are all listed in this post. Please refer to guides for further info. You will also encounter "junk." These junk items are: cans, tires, boots and twigs (get links and actual names). For sake of space, I've listed the junk items in the next post.
You can do a variety of things with the fish and junk:
Junk - alchemy, paper hats, dresses and such.

Post 6: Paper
Paper Crumpled Blue Construction Paper Crumpled Green Construction Paper Crumpled Newspaper Crumpled Newsprint Crumpled Paper Bag Crumpled Red Construction Paper Crumpled Zerox Paper Blue Crumpled Zerox Paper Goldenrod Crumpled Zerox Paper White Dirty Crumpled Newspaper Old Crumpled Newspaper
Found: Collected in Towns/Towns 2, Dumpster Dive, Daily Chance, marketplace Used For: Paper can be exchanged for various hat items at the Ruby's Rack: Exchange Trash. Paper is a component of some alchemy formulas.
A Quick Explanation of Paper
Currently, paper can be collected in Towns and Towns 2. The type of paper you find will depend on the time of day (Gaia Standard Time).
Paper has a couple uses: Alchemy and Paper Exchange Paper is a component in some Alchemy formulas. However, there are many alchemists who don't want to spend time collecting paper. Here's where you come in. If you have zero interest in Alchemy, sell your paper either in the marketplace (5% tax) or to users in the Game Item Exchange Forum. Keep in mind that users who do transactions in exchange forums expect better prices than you'd find in the marketplace. Check both the marketplace and other selling/buying threads to see what you should price your paper at.
Before Alchemy, the main use for Paper was to exchange it at Ruby's Rack: Exchange Trash. You may exchange your paper for various paper hats. I'll link a guide below if you're interested in type of hat and amount of paper needed. However, I do not recommend exchanging your paper for hats. Never use this exchange! In today's economy, the hats are cheap. Your paper is worth more as just paper. Want a paper hat? Buy it from the marketplace. (This could possibly change at a later time.... but I don't foresee this happening in the near future.)
A Quick Explanation of Towns
Towns 2 is an upgraded version of Towns, hence the name. Towns is slowly being phased out, with Towns 2 replacing it. They're a virtual space where you can make your avatar walk around, chat, place your home, among other things. I will focus only on the item collecting aspect. Links to both can be found on the World Landing Page.
You can collect the same types of paper, trash, bugs and flowers from both virtual spaces in the neighborhoods. Towns: Load Towns. Click the Directory. A page pops up with many squares (neighborhoods). Click on a random square. Collect the items by clicking them with your mouse. Don't see any trash? Move to more remote neighborhoods. Towns 2: Load Towns 2. Look for the Phone Icon in the bottom toolbar. Click "World Map" in the top left corner. While looking at the map, hover your cursor over the various landmarks. You can hunt for trash at Barton Housing, Gambino Housing, Durem Apartments and Aekea Housing.
Any bugs, paper, trash, and flowers and you click on will automatically be transported to your inventory.

post 7: Flowers .
Editing ***
Found: Collected in Towns/Towns 2, Dumpster Dive, Daily Chance, marketplace Used For: Flowers can be exchanged for various bouquets at the Barton Flowershoppe: Exchange Flowers. Flowers are a component of some alchemy formulas.
A Quick Explanation of Flowers
Flowers can be found in Towns/Towns 2, Dumpster Dive, Daily Chance, and the marketplace. The main source of flowers is Towns/Towns 2. To gather flowers, walk around Towns/Towns 2 and click the flowers. They will automatically be transported to your inventory. Certain flowers appear at specific times of the day, please refer to the guides below for the times.
Flowers can be made into bouquets at the Barton Flowershoppe: Exchange Flowers. There are three sizes available depending on the amount of flowers you want to use per bouquet. You may also use ink to color the wrappings and ribbons. Please refer to the guides below for more information.
The Barton Flowershoppe Flower Exchange is the only way to make these bouquets. You may also buy bouquets in the marketplace that other users have made.
I do not recommend this as a source of gold. Bouquets are usually worth less gold than the individual flowers and ink. If you want to earn gold, sell your flowers and do not make bouquets. If you want a bouquet, check the marketplace. It might be cheaper for you to buy one from the marketplace than to make one.
Please see post 6 for an explanation of Towns/Towns 2.

Post 10: Casino
Found: Bought from Prize & Joy for 1g each (can specify amount), Daily Chance, Marketplace. NOTE: Tokens sold in the marketplace usually cost more than store price. Not worth it. Used For: Used to play Blackjack and Slots. You can win tickets by playing Blackjack and Slots.
Found: Daily Chance (rare-ish), marketplace, Slots, Blackjack, Tiles Uses: Tickets can be exchanged for the items at Prize & Joy. Tickets are a component of some Alchemy formulas.
A Quick Explanation of Tokens
Gaia has two games that take place at the Gold Mountain Casino: Slots and Blackjack. (You can see the casino on the world map in Isle de Gambino.)
The Gaia Slots game can be found on games tab. Slots was Gaia's second game and first game to use tokens. It's like playing a slot machine. You use Tokens to play the game; you win Tickets. You can bet 1, 2 or 3 tokens per try. Your chances of winning are random. You'll likely lose lots of tokens in the process. I didn't find a good guide so I'll add some extra info. You win tickets when you get two of a kind or three of a kind. To get two of a kind, the two images must be adjacent. And you get three of a kind when all three images match. You can double your potential reward by betting two Tokens per round and triple it by betting three Tokens per round.
The Gaia Blackjack game can be found on games tab. It follows the standard rules of Blackjack, plus some cheating. Check the guides below if you want to learn more about the game. You use Tokens to play the game; you win Tickets.
If you don't want to play Blackjack or Slots, then I'd recommend selling your tokens to others who want them. There are no other uses for Tokens.
A Quick Explanation of Tickets
The main use of tickets is to exchange them for items at the Prize & Joy. A secondary use is that some Alchemy formulas require tickets as components (namely Alchemist's Case and Philosopher's Cache).
Tickets are sometimes found in the Daily Chance. Tickets can be won by playing Slots, Blackjack and/or Tiles. Slots and Blackjack were explained above (under A Quick Explanation of Tokens). I'll explain Tiles below (this paragraph). Tickets can be bought in the marketplace. This is a much faster way to earn tickets, however, usually much more expensive. When in the marketplace, be sure to search by "unit price." This should allow you to find deals where you pay less per ticket bought. Keep in mind that increasing bundles of tickets usually cost more (convenience charge placed by users).
A cheap, slow way of earning tickets is to play Tiles. Tiles is free to play and can be found on the games tab. Tiles can be connected either by background or animal type. Each round you play requires more and more chains. You can earn tickets by finishing each round. Each new round will require you to levy your current winnings pool for the chance at more tickets. Play more and more rounds for a higher payout. If you cash out, you'll have to start all over. If you lose a round, you leave with 0 tickets and must restart from the beginning.
