Is it possible to win the Test Your Strength jackpot? ~ ewanejc
Probable? No. Possible? Yes. It was won once before. However, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting to win, I don't think Arnold likes to share his Neopoints.

They know me Well =D

I like the new halloween usul! It's cute, but for some reason I just think the pitchfork is a little off, though. It kind of looks like it's sticking it inside of it's ear. XD

*wants* The Esophagor furniture is awesome, and I love all the funky spooky foods that have been released this week.

I really enjoy playing Word Pyramid but is it possible to add a pause button. The game can be long. Please talk to the programmer to see if one can be added. Thank you. ~ tiggerbbca
After some deliberation, it was decided that this makes it far to easy to cheat in the game, and therefore, sadly, should not be implemented. We suggest you take your potty breaks before starting the game. :X

Why don't they just change the screen on a pause like they do on Sutek's Tomb? O.o

If you play Whack-a-staff-member, and when you complete a level, there is only "Next level and "Send score" Why can't there be quit? ~ _lili_99
Wow, we'd thought everyone would just want to hit us over the head forever and ever and ever! But the little "X" in the upper right corner of your browser window should suffice if you'd like to stop.

Lol! XD Seriously.

That furniture was pretty cool, especially the bed.

If there is a worse color for the Usul, I'd like someone to tell me, because I certainly cannot think of one. o_o;

So excited about Halloweening on Neopets this year. Do you think they'll give out goody bags again?? Reading the neopian times really got me in teh spirit.

[Noteka2015]

Do you think they'll give out goody bags again?? .

Would those just appear in one's account on Halloween or did you have to do something to get them?

[.:Requiem:.]

Just in the inventory, I believe. And aren't there usually more RE's on halloween?

[calvinorion]

In the past two years the Goodie Bags have been located in various random places through out the site. You have to be physically online and go to those locations to get them for yourself, they don't just show up in your inventory.

The locations were the same for both years but the only one I remember is the Town Hall in Tyrannian, or was it Tyrammet Village?

When did this happen? lol I have yet to see anybody win it. Everywhere I go, everyone knows its common knowledge that nobody has won it yet. Now all of a sudden, there was a past winner?

Eh, it's not that bad... But it IS a complete ripoff of the Halloween Shoyru, and not even a good one:



The shoyru is cute. The usul is just blah.

No, I remember this happening... no idea when, but the jackpot went down to nothing and someone had a score of 100. It was a little lower than it is now, maybe 420 million NP? Not entirely sure on the details, I just remember thinking how incredibly lucky she was. (She? I think it was a she...)

I remember a time when the jackpot went back down to 0 but I remember TNT saying it was a mistake in database :-/
