4th March - Gadgadsbogen!

* Every year the fruit trees of Mystery Island undergo a remarkable change. Some whither and die, while others spring up with new and exciting fruits. Some of which have never been seen before. This monumental event is always accompanied by a massive party that carries on well into the night.

Selling Drillaroot in my shop. It's one of the new fruits, and it looks like...

A drill.

I'm happy with the direct link to the inventory from your NP amount. ^.^ I never bothered bookmarking all the hotspots, I always 'walk' there, this'll save me time.

Which link did they change? I'm the same way, I "walk" where ever I'm going so that is very useful, but I all the links I click take me back to the same places.

Up where it says your USERNAME, PET, and NP, click on the NP. That's the link they changed.

If anyone feels like restocking a Meturf and selling it to me without jacking up the price so much, PM me Or I could just try to restock one myself... Okay, so maybe I'll just wait for the price to go down (which will be soon, as they are pretty common).

Ahhhh.... but that doesn't make much sense...

I like the link to the inventory, but perhaps they should change what it says or something? No new person would ever figure that out unless they just clicked it randomly or were told by someone.

Well, they'd probably notice that those words up there were clickable, so they would probably test them all out...

The meturf is adorable.

Actually there are many things on Neopets which will remain unknown to us if we didn't go find out ourselves. Also as Moogum said, newbies will probably try out every clickable thing to see where it leads anyway.

I feel that it is too small, however. I would have preferred a larger icon.

Heh, honestly, a link that has neopoints on it would be the first thing I click.

The bank would probably be a more logical place to link it

In case anyone cares, the new fruits are:

Astranna
Lesser Bearded Plant
Cloudberry
Combfruit (whose description explains how the Islanders are not creative with the names)
Drillaroot
Gleenut
Melowhirl
Spiraberry
Turnihar Berry

I wonder which are retired now...

so no one knows yet which fruits are retired?

It IS!

HEHEE. Wow, completely randomly, I clicked on the new fruit link in the news, just as the shop stocked, and managed to get myself a Cloudberry for 500np
