Dear TNT,
I would like to thank you for the war prizes that you gave out before the end of the week. They were awesome. What were they, by the way? I would also like to thank you in advance for my super powerful 4 icon weapon that I will receive for getting 2138 points. I'd also like to thank you for giving some sort of evidence that the war was coming to a close. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see it. What was it? Another thing I'd like to thank you for was the fact that I could really tell that you really took your time with the war, or "two battles" as you stated it. By the time the war came out, you had thought about it so much that you were able to release it all in a few weeks that seemed like a few days! Thanks for how you balanced out the opponents. I mean, fresh waves sooner for the weaker side, then waiting until the war was almost over and giving less fresh waves to the stronger side was pure brilliance. I wish I had thought of that. Well, I really could think of many more ways to thank you, but I have to do school now. Thanks for the war prizes again! I look forward to recieving mine by the end of the week!
- Me
P.S. BTW, which week were you referring to? It was last week, wasn't it?

Well, i'm rather disappointed as well.
It's sad that you have to expect them to be late with everything.
Hmm, yeah, there were NOT two battles.
I don't care what The Staff says.
There were not two battles.
I've been over this before. The thieves were at a huge disadvantage Point-Wise.
Let's not even discuss the Poison, the backspacers, the huge medicine inflation, the cheaters getting 300 free points...
"Free", as in they didnt pay 30K for every other point.
The Other side getting more waves, and easier ones, at that...
I'd agree that this was the worst war yet.

When people complain about my website, I usually tell them "If you think you can do a better job, feel free to start your own better site". I think the same applies here.

Actually, there WERE two battles, signified with the pause in the middle. It just didn't feel that way. Also, if nobody noticed, neopets has a tendency to rig wars (all meridell-sided pets lost one max hp! 
), so Hannah's victory was inevitable. However, don't act like the theives didn't get another chance with the bori's! Anyways, I think neoepts should cut the "choose your side" wars, because all they are doing is causing trouble.

This is the last time i'll repeat myself.
We only got two new opponents, one was a difficulty 15 and one was a difficulty 80.
We didn't get as many opponents as the other side.
All I wanted was a fair chance for each side.

Amen. I like constructive criticism, but I always understand that The Neopets Team cannot cater to everyone's needs. If they worked on just unfreezing the accounts of PPT'ers and doing everything everyone wanted, then they'd go insane.

A bit too harsh. We all have got something we have to deal with in real life, at a certain point in our lives. Although TNT is a job, it is not their only devotion. For all we know half of TNT could be pregnant and on maternity leave. o_0

Then they shouldn't give themselves the workload/number of projects to complete that they have.

*sighs* I wouldnt be too hard on TNT, although this has been one of their... worse wars. I mean, the meridell one was great! The points were close and all that, nobody had a disadvantage, everyone kept guessing who would win! And in the end, Darigan won by like half a million points?
The one after that wasnt bad either. The war prizes were cruddy, but arent they always?
But this one, kinda takes the cake. Oh wait, I did say dont be too hard on TNT, I'm sure they have their reasons.

I promise things too, and I most of the time never do them. 
But its not like you can control when and what happens to you. I agree that they shouldn't have come out with so many new projects in this short period of time, but I guess they are just trying to keep up with TCG productions and marketing as Mr. Doug Dohrling has come up with. Right after the HaTIC TCG cards were r eleased, the Curse of Maraqua was released almost simultaneiously. And if that TCG set has been released, then the codes have been released, and marquan items (or things) have started to appear, and therefore they may have to create an entirely new plot to go along with it. 
Just too much work, not enough hours in the day.

there is a three month delay between each expansion.

Is there? Ive always thought they have most of them premade, and just releases them on a wierd system. Although I've known them to release some of the sets early (way early) to exclusive stores in certain areas of the company, but this is just a theory.
Tue Jan 18, 2005 4:57 am
nope, they have several teams working at once, curse of maraqua will probably have been in development for ... id say probably nine months by now.

you know that does hold some truth

what if TNT actually did give us some good prizes
Wed Jan 19, 2005 12:14 am
I am disapointed aswell.
1. There was only one battle
2. The prizes still haven't been released
3. The sloth end was a little to random but still good
4. They said this would be better then sloth but i highly doubt it could have been that much better
5. The way that the thieves kept complaining that they were at a disadvantage when most of the stronger neopians were on thieves side.
