Games NP Rates Down?

Mon Aug 25, 2008 11:13 am

well yeah, I was playing the games and found out that i did not get as much NP as i used to with the same scores o_o

For Example:

You get 1000np when you score 800 and over in Bash Kass right? I got 800 something D:

MayEdit: Topic moved to Neopets Games and title changed to something a little clearer :)

the scores change every month, i think around abouts the 24th (which would make sence). I guess the kass ratio must have been changed for the worse.

Here's a petpage that lists the old ratios if you want to check if any have changed: http://www.neopets.com/~Zip_Lightfoot
They don't have this month's yet, which is understandable as it's only a day into it, but they have all the previous ones.

Actually that Kass ratios is the same as always. You need 863+ points to get 1k np, as it has been for quite a long time.

Usually they adjust the ratios on the 25th or 26th. Seems they managed it right on time this month, judging by the games neoboard being full of "Oh no!" threads. :P

Maybe I'm reading this wrong, but why would the 24th/25th make sence? I've always found it weird that they start around the end of the month, rather than simply at the 1st of each month

I think what Rachel meant was, it's been the 25th since they implemented the system, so it makes sense that the change would be noticed now. :)
There's no telling why they chose the 25th, though. It might have made more sense to TNT to *not* do it the first of the month, as a lot of other stuff probably goes on then.

The change was announced and implemented on the 25th. So, the changes occur on the 25th, at 2:00 AM-ish NST.

Worth noting: FGN Guild has a fairly up-to-date list of current game payout ratios (though the September figures aren't up yet). That list is viewable here:
