I keep hearing people saying that, but I cannot seem to see where it says that in the news paragraph. If someone could just point where in the news paragraph it says that you can only unlock it today that would be great.


Well obviously you click "news" on the side bar. Then you look/scroll down past all the dates of old news. It has today's date and says "Today is randomly devoted to winter" and then the paragraph after that has all the info.

Today is randomly dedicated to Winter!
As we won't be doing any more wintery-themed things for a long while, we thought it only fitting to go out with a bang! You may notice a slightly different side bar. Everyone will have this bar for the whole of today, and if you can figure out how to get it, you can unlock this bar to use any day or the year!

You didn't understand. What they meant was where in that paragraph does it say it can only be unlocked today, which from what I read it doesn't say that, it only says it's available too everyone today and that it can be unlocked, but it's never specified that it can only be unlocked today

I think we all jumped to that conclusion based on prior sidebars. Whether that was right or not, well we'll see.

Yes, but what sort of answers my question is...

It seems to me they are saying that we have it for today, and if we unlock it anytime, we can use it anytime. Oh well o_O

look above your post and you'll see that they say everybody will have it for the whole day, if you don't unlock it today, it disapeers, like the birthday sidebar, if you do happen to figure out how to unlock it, you can use it any time, like the halloween one

I think we should just quit trying, man! We've been on all day trying, believe me, I wasted 2million on ideas for that sidebar today. Maybe Neopet's hasn't activated it yet?

I think what they're saying is that is really just an assumption. Perhaps we should think of this more like an avatar. We have no idea if we can only get it today or if it is something that is so complex, it could take us weeks to get it.

Edit: messed up quotes

That is what i meant, we are just assuming it can only be unlocked today, it never actually states it "Disappears"

Has anyone with a good enough pet tried to beat Snowager in the Battledome? I've tried Snow Faerie and beat her but Snowager is too strong for me

I agree if everyone on here today could not unlock it, then maybe it can not be done. I hope it is like a avatar and then we can unlock it anytime. if it is due to the fact that neopets has not activated it then that is just cruel.

Prolly a red herring TNT added, but only 1 place in all of Neopia has weather saying snow. I wonder..... *goes back to playing there.*

Thu Feb 03, 2005 2:05 am

knowing how :evil: TNT is 99.8% of the time, i can assume that it is gonna be like those random day avatars where you can only get it that day, and after that, its retired, like the mind control lab one for instance.

Thu Feb 03, 2005 2:09 am

I really like to hope that if it was intended to be a one-day-only thing, and no one unlocks it, that TNT will extend the time or give a hint or something.
