Training is really bad now. the codestones have inflated and failed to deflate. a lot of them cost over 5k, when they used to cost about 4k or less.

lol. Well, really more like crying than laughing...but still lol.
I remember when they cost less than 3k. At least they're not in the 8k range, and TNT is trying to deflate codestones, or halt their inflation anyway. After all, they've made them available through other outlets(like Geraptiku, IIRC).

I wish Tiki Tack would start stocking codestones also. There are so many good ways they can think of to release codestones.

On the other hand, buy up some codestones and save them on the side, you could make a quick chunk of change off the war.

But being an old man as far as age goes (I've been on neopets since 2001,*sigh* how time flies when you are having fun), I've seen a noticiable change in the Wars. I wasn't able to participate in the Maraqua or Ice Caves wars (In fact I think the last war I really participated in was er....the one before the Maraquan or something like that. Probably something to do with outlaws or something like that), but from what I hear, TNT is almost specifically making it harder for the mid-range people, and is allowing the lower levels to make some quick np. Which I kinda like, since it is harder than it was when I started to get up there, since back when I started you could get a map piece a day.

Anyway I know that I will be stocking up on supplies before I hear anything on the news about a new plot. *runs off to make a withdrawal*

I've already completed my new battleset; it cost me about 200k, but that's probably nothing compared to what it may cost in a few weeks. I'm saving all codestones I find/win for resale (my pet's stats are pathetic enough that I can still use Krawk Island's training academy if I want the cheaper price), and the same goes for any weapons or potions I find.

This is my first war, and I want to get off on as good a start as possible. I'll probably still royally mess up, but at least I'll have tried. :roll:

Well, I went out tonight and sank about 160k into codestones before they go up any more. :-)

I already had a pretty good stash, so that should (I hope) be enough to carry me to 200 strength if I decide to go that way, or to sell for a decent chunk of change if they don't. I added to my stock of stickies, too.

I still hope it's a while before the next war, though. I want that 200 boost, dang it.

It would be a good idea for anyone to do that, whether or not you are near or past the nearest boost. Selling them at the peak of the war makes excellent economic sense.

Part of the reason I got back into neopets was because it's easier for me to see what I have been learning in my Macroeconomics Theory class. Neopets is actually a good place to demonstrate the principles of economics, but eh, I've probably put everyone to sleep, so I will stop there :roflol:
