|Date: 18th of November 2011

Today I observed a new upgrade to the [[Tack Shooter (BTD5)|tack towers]], the "[[Tack Sprayer (BTD5)|Tack Sprayer]]". What they appear to have done is alter the firing mechanism to allow for 16 tacks per volley instead of 8. This should prove quite useful.

Today I witnessed what I believe is called the "[[Bionic Boomer (BTD5)|Bionic Boomer]]" which is the result of research into both arm speed (through bionic arm upgrades) and special composite boomerangs to provides{{sic}} astonishing power and flight speed.

Following the smell of burning rubber, today I ventured upon an awesome sight. [[Monkey Apprentice (BTD5)|Monkey apprentices]] apparently have perfected a new spell upgrade - "[[Dragon's Breath (BTD5)|Dragon's Breath]]".

|-

|[[File:BTD5F secret note 4.png|100px]]

|Date: 21st of November 2011

Further advances into [[Corrosive Glue (BTD5)|corrosive glues]] have lead{{sic}} to the new upgrade I saw today. The "[[Bloon Dissolver (BTD5)|Bloon Dissolver]]" eats through the Bloons much faster than previously. Not a nice way to go if you're made of rubber...

|Date: 22nd of November 2011

Though late to naval warfare, the monkeys proved again why they shouldn't be underestimated. I was lucky enough to witness a field test of a "[[Destroyer (BTD5)|Destroyer]]", a very high firerate ship. A joy to behold.

|[[File:BTD5F secret note 6.png|100px]]

|Date: 23rd of November 2011

I must admit I had been wondering how the monkeys had been able to fund the technological advances they've been making. The answer is this, the "[[Monkey Bank (BTD5)|Monkey Bank]]". Pays interest each round.

|-

!7

|[[File:BTD5F secret note 7.png|100px]]

|Date: 24th of November 2011

Today I was able to get a sneak peek of something really cool! The monkeys have developed an upgrade to the [[Monkey Ace (BTD5)|Monkey Ace]] called "[[Neva-Miss Targeting (BTD5)|Neva-Miss Targeting]]". Darts that intelligently seek out targets. Wow!

|-

!8

|[[File:BTD5F secret note 8.png|100px]]

|Date: 25th of November 2011

Seems like overkill isn't a word in the monkey vocabulary. Today I saw a Monkey{{sic}} don this incredible suit, the "[[Robo Monkey (BTD5)|Robo-Monkey]]". Two independently targetting plasma cannons. Nuf said.

|-

!9

|[[File:BTD5F secret note 9.png|100px]]

|Date: 26th of November 2011

Today I was thrilled to see an advancement in my favourite tower, the [[Bomb Tower (BTD5)|Bomb Tower]]. Not much to look at but you should see it firing! The "[[Cluster Bombs (BTD5)|Cluster Bomb]]"{{sic}} upgrade has Bombs within Bombs! Bombception!

|-

!10

|[[File:BTD5F secret note 10.png|100px]]

|Date: 27th of November 2011

Today I was surprised to see a further upgrade to what is already cutting edge tech. The [[Dartling Gun (BTD5)|Dartling tower]] has a new boost, "[[Hydra Rocket Pods (BTD5)|Hydra Rockets]]" which replaces darts with tiny rockets. A study in awesomology.

|-

|[[File:BTD5F secret note 11.png|100px]]

|Date: 28th of November 2011

Today was very special. The monkeys seem to have some [[Special Agent|mercenaries]] to aid their cause and I was lucky enough to spot the "[[Bee Keeper (BTD5)|Beekeeper]]" a BEAR no less! Seems he has been trained to fight the good fight.

|[[File:BTD5F secret note 12.png|100px]]

|Date: 29th of November 2011

Those clever little monkeys. Now, understanding supply lines, they've been able to add support to their regular towers through "[[Monkey Village (BTD5)|Monkey Village]]s". These units provide an array of benefits to towers within a radius.

===''Who Wants To Be A Bloonionaire?''===

[[File:WWTBAB icon.jpg|thumb|200px]]

''Who Wants To Be A Bloonionaire?'' was a small trivia Flash game released to promote ''Bloons TD 5''. The game presented a series of trivia questions about the {{series|Bloons TD}}, and if all 10 questions were answered correctly in a row, the game presented the player with a trailer for ''BTD5''. It was released a few days before the trailer was officially uploaded to YouTube.
