It's been how long since the end of the Altador Plot? I was super excited for today but Neopets slapped me in the face when they didn't release the prizes. :cry:

You'd better believe I was disappointed.

Feh. Another subpar Ixi Day. And I can't even take advantage of the training because Tandreia is too high. No weapons. Not even an art gallery. Clickable av. Bleh colors.

*yawn*

The free training hasn't been activated yet either, but I'm also surprised at the lack of a gallery. I want that robot ixi toy. The pop too.

Meh. No art gallery?. It better be late! I have an entry.

Free training won't be activated for another 2 hours until it officially hits July 11th in California.

I failed to notice that they skipped the news for the 10th and was thinking it should be about over soon.

What the HECK? I submitted a picture for Ixi Day and then TNT slaps me round the chops by not even putting an Ixi Day special in the Art Gallery

Aww i was really excited for today, they said the altador cup related prizes would be given out early this week, I was hoping today bummer...

Tue Jul 11, 2006 11:42 am

Eh, not too bad. I've already started the free training with my 2 Ixi, one of whom I just painted Tyrannian.

The 2 coolest Ixis on the whole site!

They released the Kau day stuff today finally.

ANOTHER CLICKABLE? FOR IXI DAY?

No weapons, no gallery, no cool items...bleh. My favourite pet has been done injustice, IMO. But maybe I'm just overreacting.

At least we got a cool colour last year... (maraquan). sigh.

Tue Jul 11, 2006 8:46 pm

Ehh I wish there was more of a challenge than a clickable but oh well. Only food toys and a few morphing potions. Well today is a rather disappointing Ixi day but oh well.

Most likely the next Art Gallery will be Ixi releated. It might have been to early to put it up, or they didn't get quite enough good entries and they're waiting for more? :thinking:
