Neopets Birthday!

Thu Nov 15, 2007 1:29 pm

Play games 5 times instead of 3
Monthly freebies reset

Any other freebie type things for Neopets' Birthday?

Just noticed that both Buried Treasure and the Wheel of Excitement are 0 NP today.

There is free training at the Swashbuckling Academy all day long for pets also. ;)

Eeek, thanks for posting that.
Wouldn't have found out otherwise.

The 5 scores per game are great, but Jelly Blobs of Doom is buggy and keeps telling me I scored nothing instead of giving me the 1000 points I earned. [EDIT: as of 9:30pm NST, JBoD is working again. Hurray!]

Thanks for the head's up on training. I've got my 3 non-battle pets in the academy, including the lab rat. I'm sad because a Faerie quest pushed my battle pet over 40 HP, and when I tried to knock it down with Deadly Dice on Halloween, she got bumped up to 42 instead. :( (DD is 3am for me, so it ain't happening except on Halloween -- although I think I might have to set an alarm to get her back down rather than pay all those extra NP for training.)

There's also an increased chance of RE's today (both good and bad), so it might not be a bad idea to play Dice-a-Roo, Sakhmet Solitaire, or Cliffhanger.

I hate to sound negative, but the birthday sidebar looks terrible! It is very grainy. It looks poorly resized to the new layout.

I just tried visiting Coltzan's Shrine again and was able to get a second result for today. I've read some guides saying it's a twice-a-day daily, but I've never been able to get more than one prize a day. So this might be a birthday thing, or it might just be that this is the first time I've made it more than 12 hours apart on the same day. Just thought I'd offer it out there for others to try (and no, Fruit Machine didn't let me go twice).

Worked for me also. Thanks for the heads up!

The shrine is always a 12 hour delay, that's not special. :-)

Ack, I wish I had seen this topic sooner, here it is 10pm NST and I just find out about all of this (except the 5x games that happen every year). The training would have been wonderful to have started at midnight NST all the way to midnight 2 hours from now. I have 15 pets, all of which whose stats kind of matter to me! :P

I'd also love for Neo's birthday to not fall this close to finals *faints*

*pouts* I tried to come here yesterday cause i knew everyone else would know the other special 'birthday' things that i didnt and the site was down so I missed out on everything except the extra plays of games and reset freebies...... and the only stupid random event i got extra was 'a green dragon flies over' I'm disappointed..... oh well. I did get a few items from playing dice-a-roo yesterday atleast.
