trial 13: Something different!

I saw clouds and a description, but it automatically went back to BV before I could read it all.

Looking at my browser history, I have two screens in a row of the main BV map. Didn't realize I should have taken a screenshot.

You saw something, I know it! What did you see? That’s all?! Oh, this is infuriating! So close, yet so far! What am I doing wrong?! What? Oh yes, yes, those unfortunate side effects. I’ll return you to your previous state, I promise! Just – not right now, please!


Yep, first effect! Invisibility, whee! I thought I was immune, but now I've got superpowers, woot, woot! Time to head over to Jelly World and walk around, freaking people out by the mysteriously appearing footprints!

Oh, and I got a hair mote, too. Eww.

Edit: Guess that's just what you get when you get an effect. Got another one.

Trial 14: WoK,

You feel a tightness around your upper body and for a few moments, all you can see is bright spots of light that are constantly disappearing and appearing in different places. Is this what the future looks like?


Yup. Blurred vision. And Purblare Jam.

trial 15: Royal Potionery, Dandy Decimal System, agility reduced from 9 to 8

Guess my luck streak has ended.

A sharp pain shoots through you and all you can see is a single point of light that seems to be growing bigger and brighter. What could possibly be on the other side?

3/15 affecteds

I worry about how stat changes will be restored. If you're training, will you get the full number back, or only back to what you were before it started? (I'm not training this poundie, so I'm not personally worried.)

I notice the end of the URL for the effect had "=16" at the end (I should have copy-pasted it instead of the text). So I guess there are at least 16 different effects?

Trial 14@ Brightvale Armoury
Received: Tangella
5/14 unaffecteds

So I'm late to the party (probably because I've been sick), but I just now connected the fact that if you're not affected, you don't see any sort of "in between effect" page, you just go straight to the location. Probably only noticed this now that I've had a few more unaffecteds in short succession.

Trial 11 - Brightvale Fruits - Bronze Mote - Not affected

Good observation, P! I think you are right about that.

That's why I thought my first "affected" screen was a new phase at trial 13, P! I had no idea what was happening... There seems to be a different one for each condition. (The end of the url is "trial=X", by the way. I wonder if you could capture the whole URL from your browser history and revisit each affected trial.)

Trial 16 was at the grocery store, lol. BV flag, unaffected, and I think at the potionery

And here's trial 17: speckled, greater air potion, at the motery

(couldn't remember where I went for this one and had already gone to my inventory after hitting the back button, so I checked the history and did find the URL: http://www.neopets.com/dimensions/2/ind ... l?trial=17 "What's happening?"
http://www.neopets.com/dimensions/1/ind ... l?trial=15 "Where is this?"
http://www.neopets.com/dimensions/2/ind ... l?trial=14 "What's happening?")

I can't find trial 13's in history, but there are 2 different affected screens, apparently (maybe 3 if 13 was different... But I kind of remember it being a "what's happening.")

Anyway, time to go back to sleep. (I fell asleep on my couch when I got home from the gym, around 9pm. Glad the alarm was on my phone and did wake me up. I've got groceries to finish putting away - nothing perishable, thank goodness. Dinner didn't happen, but I'm not hungry now... Should probably still eat a little something to tide me over, though.)

Edit: trial 18: WoK, unaffected, ancient arcana

Trial 12 - Starburst screen - Brightvale Colouring Pages - Night Mote & Blank Yellow Tome - health reduced from 87 to 78

Losing 9 HP is big, or was it a 10% loss? Hmmmm

ETA - I also noticed that MyPet was rather hungry as well. This is unusual considering that she is staying at a Neolodge right now and should be bloated.
