They've done it again everyone! WC Maps CHANGED again!!!

Thu Feb 16, 2006 7:24 pm

TNT has made the World Challenge games screwy again with us.

We no longer are unable to play the "unpopular" games so it prevents "cheating". Now, we all have to play the same games and try to earn our source of income. :x - Think of this, the people who are good at those games get to succeed furthest while we players, say one who played Carnival of Terror or Extreme Herder, and was fantastic at that, now suffers greatly!!! :x

AND on top of that they've limited to THREE PIECES a day. :x

I am SO FREAKING FED UP with this! It's making me very very angry with Adam, Donna and everyone else who allow this, who say yes to this. Once again, RESTOCKERS and AUTOBUYERS get to succed in the world of Neopets, while Gamers suffer beyond anything in this game. :x

UNFAIR

- Yes, I know I sound harsh. This needs to be talked about because this is complete DUNG by TNT! :x Maybe they'll actually listen to their players, you know, THEIR source of income for once before they start loosing real players and this site becomes ruins.

...Well, there went any chance of me ever completing a WC map. :(

The only gave I ever won pieces from is 200m peanut dash. Now thats not there anymore! Not that I have playded in a long time but still! If I wanted to now I can't!

The three map pieces I can sort of see - if you look at Escape to Kreludor, for example, two players (who I won't identify) have been at the top of the leaderboard every single time I've played, and I play that game hourly and daily. So they've basically cornered the market on that game, making it VERY difficult for anyone else to win a piece.

But it should be three map pieces per game, or three per world, per day, rather than three overall.

The unpopular thing - that's not cool. Just not cool.

That I would be a *BIT* more happy with Shapu, but you know like I know and the rest of Gamers who WC Play Fairly won't ever see that, because they're all not listening they're players anymore.

They're so fludded with these blessed advertisements and all these useless things (Did we really need Elephantana day yesterday?) instead of securing the site, getting rid AUTOBUYERS and people like Kaos, they're more interested in Pet and Theme days and making money by selling cheap items for outrageous prices, then taking care of their loyal players who play fair.

I agree that this is very unfair of TNT, limiting it to three pieces a day should have been enough. It seems that they don't try hard enough to deal with cheaters and the like, instead they punish everyone.
At least there is still one game left that I'm acutally pretty good at! But I only started doing the world challenges last week so it's going to take forever to get a whole picture now. It's just so annoying that they've done this!

Oh, and won't this make the prices for picture pieces go up since there will be fewer of them?

Thu Feb 16, 2006 8:30 pm

I will never get a whole picture now. The two games I had a chance of winning are gone!
I sent an angry question about this to the editorial.

Where can I get a list of games that are still eligible? Do I have to
click on the World Challenge icon of each one of them to see if it's there?

That is what I would say todo Betty. No one really has sene this yet, and I learned from my guild, Battlers Pride, about this and it has me outraged because I like playing for WCMaps once and a while and I'm all by 7 pieces away from completing one of them :(

Wow, this is ridiculous. This basically tells everyone us Restockers have it easy-- which will probably fuel more than unneccesary conflict. Unfortunately I'm shocked to see TNT making it so that.. well.. we do.

But then again this can and will probably even make more people start to want to learn how to RS more, and everyone will have even more competition. Blah. This is just.. ugh.

Looks like they updated the faq:

http://www.neopets.com/s/index.phtml?tr ... int_id=419

This does not help taking out the only games that I have a slight chance of even getting any peices on. I can live with the peices being randomely given but to take awayteh games and leave the ones that everyone else has no trubble getting isn't my idea of exciting.

-When you complete the third and final picture set, you have the option to clear all the pictures and start all over.
-All the prizes have been re-ordered to match the difficulty levels with a few new prizes thrown in.


I hate to say it, but I think I take back my opinion. Now you have the option to clear all the pictures and completely start over? As in being able to do the first and second again?. They've even got new prizes now-- which could actually be better for profit.

This is unbelievable. They are screwing up the MP system even MORE. ARGH!

sigh. :(

Who says Carnival of Terror is unpopular? It is just takes a LONG time to get a good score. Unpopular my Gnorbu!
