22nd November
Introducing our newest combo Petpet - The GX-4 Haseebot!
This week's first Pet Spotlight trophy has been awarded to Lendenyo the Lenny.
Ahh! Poor Jimmi and Woogy a gigantic Haseebot has smashed their see-saw in the new Caption Contest
Now you can learn how to draw the kind Soup Faerie, with this step by step guide.
As this week is a bit of a short one with Thanksgiving in the middle, we will be changing the Story Telling Contest. The Story Telling Competition will be extended over two weeks so there will be eight parts in total instead of the normal five.
"Avast, ye scurvy maggot!" the pirate Blumaroo shouted, brandishing his sword. "Hand over yer treasure, or prepare to be walkin' da plank!" He reached forward and attempted to snatch the treasure, which ended with both parties locked in a tug of war stalemate.
This stunning Background featuring Kanrik would look great on your desktop!
There are some new Buddy Icons for Aim and MSN featuring some of the main characters from the Hannah and the Ice Caves plot.
There are some new pictures for you to look at in the Art Gallery. Also later on this week we will be having a Battle Faerie themed art special, so if you have any pictures of the Battle Faerie, be sure to send them in.
We have a new Neopedia article about the Deserted Fairground.
You can now paint your Ruki Speckled and your Yurble Pink if you so desire.
The Halloween Techo has been updated, now he looks a lot spookier

Darn... I should've read the news... I had a really good caption for the contest but I said Robot Hasee instead of whatever it's called.

A Battle Faerie-themed Art Special, eh? I wonder if this means that Wednesday's random theme will be the Battle Faerie...? Do you suppose we should expect a Battle Faerie avatar?

Aw. I'm a sad they changed the Deserted Fairground Neopedia article. I liked the old one. The new one is just regular.
That GX-4 Haseebot sure is cute, though.
Also, the games said 5x plays this morning, but as soon as the news came out, they switched back to 3x plays. I knew I should have played the extra games while I could.

At least the yurble won't have to worry about crossing the road at night.
My colour causes road accidents.

To those who are looking for the previous Neopedia entry that was "removed":
http://www.neopets.com/neopedia.phtml?neopedia_id=196
(it's under "The Deserted Fairground" not "Deserted Fairground" as the new one is
)

Ixistant: lol...so true. Pink Yurble makes accidents. That color is blinding!
Why did TNT make Speckle Ruki's BD poses so...tiny? =/ Just look at it to Pink Yurble...looks like it's about to get squished.

Aww, the games went back to 3 plays instead of 5? The birthday day news said between the 15th and 22nd, and they were down for an entire day (not that they wanted to me and not their fault), but I took between the 15th and 22nd to mean that as of tomorrow, the 23rd, games would go back to 3 plays a day.
I was looking forward to one more day of decent np from games! Thnks we should have this extra day to make up for the day no one could log in and to help people who lost stuff.

It might still get in, I recall a caption ages ago in which someone called a Kadoatie a "Blue Aisha" O_o

I thought it meant the 22 was included as well.
Guss I should have played this morning.
Mon Nov 22, 2004 9:54 pm
maybe the 22nd was included up until the time they posted the news, just like the B-day didn't start UNTIL the news was posted. Or am I just confused?
Mon Nov 22, 2004 9:58 pm

Yep. This morning, after the day changed, you could still get 5x plays. It didn't change back to 3x plays until after the news came out.

Was the Galem MSN icon accidently saved as the AIM icon? The AIM icon used to flash the words 'The Boss' but now it just says 'Galem' in red letters.
Actually, now that I think about it, a Galem MSN icon wasn't ever displayed in the news - could it be a new one they meant to upload, but when they did it overwrote the AIM icon?
