New Lenny/Mystery Picture Prize Pool

[stampsyne]

With the new system of a 2 million neopoint prize pool, it seems the answere is given away less often. Do you think it was a good change?

I like it, but given the pittance that it has been working out to since it was changed, I think it would be good to increase the size of the pot that gets divided.

I looked at the latest one, decided that I could probably do it, but that for the effort it would require the NP wouldn't be worth it.

I dunno. I was one of the 162 who got the superhero one and got 12346 and a meoclops rug. I thought that was worth surfing through all the shopkeepers a few times.

I love it as it was annoying to get the Mystery Picture and/or Lenny Conundrum right and not get anything.

It doesn't really matter to me, because I never get them now anyway. I liked MP and LC when they first came out- so easy then.

It doesn't seem to be working much, since the answer gets leaked anyway. I prefer the older version where they had an awesome item prize (for the LC anyway) and a handful of np.

I like the prize pool, because both of those contests would always be released while I'm asleep. So by the time I found out about them, let alone if I new the answer, I wouldn't get a prize anyway. So this way I have a chance to get SOME sort of prize, even if it isn't much. Although I think that if I had the chance to get the answers and get a good prize with the previous way of doing it, I wouldn't have been happy about the chance. For my circumstances though, I do like the change...

I like it because Im not usually on when the contests start and when I actually get the answers its too late to be on the top 250. This way you can get something even if you got the answer really late. And the answers aren't so open on the boards anymore and thats a plus to those who have a chance to get them...

The contests are now released at quite random times, IMO.

I don't care much in MP cause if you win you get 2k+, but in LC it's bad, everybody STILL tells the answers on the boards so if you win you just get 100+ np (and the item and trophy and avatar if you're lucky)...

i like the idea, it means i'll actually get something by the time i manage to figure out the answer, but it doesn't appear to be doing anything about people who post the answer, just as many people so after 100 nps for it, i wish they would increase the prize pool, but that might encourage the people for some bizzare reason.
