Typing Terror

This is a question for all of those people who play Typing Terror:
Currently, there are 2 bonus clockwork grundos. One is red, the words are spelled backwards, and you receive 20 points. The other is purple, the words are written correctly, but you receive 100 points.
Would you like it if there was a third bonus grundo which gave you extra points for spelling Neopian words?
(Example: A green clockwork grundo with the word "Usul" could give you 75 points)

The more bonuses, the better, in my opinion!

I wouldn't really care all that much, seeing as I don't really play the game ... but I guess it would be fine if we have it xP If we don't have it, whatever.

I would like enough broken grundos to be able to get the avatar. Even with half a dozen of them and almost perfect typing I can't get over 3500.

Sure, why not add another bonus to make it slightly easier?

If you put too many bonus grundos in, it would just make it that much easier for you to get the 1000 NP max. Neopets is only trying to make you do your best. have to WORK for that high score.

I like bonuses. 
Although, it might be too easy to spell most of the Neopian words. Maybe if the point value were a little lower it would make more sense to implement. Still...bonuses are nice.

I second that! More points = more NP

Ditto on that. I've basically given up.

OOh yes I would! I never even knew those grundos gave you bonuses, I just play and I hope I dont lose xDD I dont really noticing how much my score increases each time I spell a word. But the more bonuses the better because that means more np and that is very awesome

Sure, making it a little easier to get the required avatar score without playing the game 100,000 times would be great!

I would like the Bonus Grundos with Neopian words mainly so I can learn which words are considered "Neopian"! I play a lot of Word Pyramid and have found that many so-called "Neopian" words are everyday ones, like "Billy". I still can't figure out why Billy is a Neopian word, but I'd like to know what other common words are considered "Neopian".

My question about Neopian words is, can any word you find on the site be used as a word or Neopian word? For example, is that ugly stepchild of a word Gnorbu able to be used in Eliv Thade, TT, Word Pyramids, etc.?

Maybe not yet (haven't checked), but all species names are eventually.
