Where are the plot prizes?

Maybe they're telling you all to go outside and stop worrying about plot prizes.

Oh, that exercise equipment wold be <i>perfect</i> for my Pirate Blumaroo boxer! I hope that they were actually released, so far I haven't been able to get any of them as search results...

EDIT: But I did find one of the "missing" Desert scrolls. Looks like even more of the missing items are getting properly released! So for those of you looking for those new petpets, might want to search again. It would be nice if they'd explain what had happened and/or apologize for not making the items available in a timely fashion - but I'm not really expecting that to happen. It <i>is</i> nice that they're correcting the mistake, though, don't get me wrong.

What's with all this boring news lately? I mean, in my opinion, it's nothing exciting at all. TNT, you're not as fun as you use to be. With anything.

i was stuffing myself with Gummie Bears while reading the news.

*squee* She speaks the truth! I found my quillty!

110k?! Aw man, that's going to put a dent in my PB fund. But my Lutari's worth it.

Edit: It's a Palmplat now, for those searching for it. And the doggy petpet it was announced with is now called a Barlow.

You know...since they are doing a "Health & Exercise" day, the least they could have done is brought back Grundos Gym--just for the day.

HAHAHA!! ZING!

[SaturnJuniper]

i find latley that all the news is just routine stuff. Like the winners to all the many competions they run. New avatars get me somewhat excited but all the items that arent actually released dont. I used to be excited to see what great developments they had made in the game but now its just boring

[mercurius]

this is getting rediculous. . plot prizes. . cup prizes. . .I'll take anything!!

I very vaguely remember Grundo's Gym, I remember playing around with it but I don't remember what it did/gave you. What did you get from playing it?

You could get a ton (literally) of NP if you played often enough. You could do one round of exceises each day. If you did all the exercises, you got 250 NP every five rounds, you'd get a membership card. For each membership card you had, you gota 2,000 NP bonus when you finished the round. So if you had five membership cards, you'd get 10,250 NPs from the game when you finished the round...ten membership cards--20,250 NP...etc.

Ah...Grundo's Gym. Good times, good times. Too bad I didn't make riches playing that...didn't know you could make so much np from it!

Routine stuff is right.. its getting semi predictiable
