Why can't the TYS be won??


It probably can be won, but the TYS system might work on an exponential system, i.e. the odds of reaching any level are 1.2^(whatever level). That would make the odds of getting the jackpot 82817974:1. Nah, those odds aren't nearly long enough.

I thought TYS has been won. I read it in the editotrial once.

I'm sure TYS was won... once. Maybe twice on a fluke. I'm surprised even Brucy B and Black Pawkeet's jackpots are won occasionally.

I did read in an old editorial that TYS was won once, but that it probably would not be won again for a while "Arnold likes his Neopoints". And I am pretty sure Buried Treasure can be won. I play it many times a day, and about every third or fourth day, it drops to about 100K again. So I guess I am just assuming here, but I think that means somebody won.

I don't know if this is what everyone was thinking of, but there was recently an article in the NT where someone "told" how to win Test Your Strength.... hold down the mouse button for hours.

I don't know if that's true, but I do know if I hold the mouse button down for 10-20 seconds I do get a better prize than just a fast click.

but that could be coincidence.

There was also an April Fools article where the person said you had to refresh until you got Arnold's quotes in a certain order, but they acknowledged that it was a joke in the end of the article.

I've won 20k twice from Buried Treasure.

Won the jackpot 3 times in Dice-a-roo.

I *really* want to win a Black Pawkeet Slots jackpot. I want to know what happens when you win it!

I've won a 10 dubloon coin and between 1000 and 5000 nps in buried treasure. I've not had any luck in test your strength or much luck in the slots, but I've won good money at coconut shy a couple times and gotten some nifty coconuts to boot. It's all just luck and while we all may wish we had more of it, we should be happy with what is granted to us =)

tnt reset it if i remember correctly, and also said that they did so somewhere, perhaps the editorial? o_O but no-ones actually won it, someone came up with a very good faked screenie, and everyone thought it was him, but it did turn out he was faking it.


I believe that TNT just resets jackpot when it gets outrageously high.

The most I've ever gotten on a luck/chance game is 10k.

I got 30/100 for doing that holding mouse button down for 20 second things. That's the best i've ever gotten.. o_O

Oh, and the highest i've won from the treasure thing was 20K.
