Gah!!! I fail as a Neopets player!

I'm still in the market for an... expensive item, and I saw someone on the TP offering one for just over a million NP, plus some furniture. SCORE!

So I neomailed the trader and asked what kind of furniture she wanted, and if she'd be willing to take a Baby PB, plus some furniture (I wasn't planning on spending more than 100k or so), plus 400k in NP. It would clean me out, but for such a great discount, it would be worth it.

The catch was, I wasn't sure she was actually asking for a discount. Her account was only a week old. :oops:

So, when she Neomails me back telling me she'll probably take whatever I offer, even though someone offered a decent, appropriate price for the item, I become guilt-ridden and neomail her back, saying, "Look, you'd be better off taking person X's bid."

*beats her head into the monitor* I just. Couldn't. Do it. Nevermind that it'll take me another month to earn up the NP to buy one at the price it's usually going for now; I just didn't think I could stand the idea that I'd (potentially) "scammed" a new player.

Then she neomailed be back saying I should place my bid anyway. So I have, and now I'm wondering what's going on.... o_O

:roll: :( On Neoquest 1 on evil, won against Jahbal but lost to Mastermind. No silver Trophy, and the game dragged for months... If only RE were worth enough when I start again.... I had not enough potion to help me and I should have used a weapon that permitted to self-heal..

:x I also made another blunder, took a chance and lost. In order to proabaly gain a stat or two, I labbed our Tyrannian Uni (potion and painted $$$) and it turned into a Green Techo. Now it's a glowing Techo but it so far no consaolation. Maybe it will turn into a great looking pet sometimes again.

Is there such a thing as Worst player of the week? I'd get the trophy for sure...

On the plus side, I have a few challenge cards nearing completion.


Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicles, xxxholic, Full Metal Alchemist, Fruit Baskets, Ergo Proxy, now what is next ? hints wanted from knowledgeable anime fan.

I'm sure the lab will give you something decent eventually. It took me a month to get my darigan peophin, but I still got her (and then eventually zapped her again, but that's another story). :)

What goes around, comes around. I commend you. :hug: There are lots of players who can say that they'd do something in a given situation, but it's situations like these that really show you what kind of player/person you are.

So I've been doing Jhudora's quests to get the avvie. Today I was on quest 18 -- only two away. I had to get a rock piggy bank. Picked one up on the SW for 2500NP. Then the phone rang -- no problem, I can multitask. Well, in talking to my brother and looking stuff up on-line for him and checking his e-mail, I FORGOT TO GO BACK! :oops: Sorry, you'll have to start over. GRRRRRRR! It was only two clicks away from completing the quest!!! :cry:

My only consolation is that the rock piggy bank is going for 1000NP more than I spent -- but since yesterday's Jhudora quest was 12K, it's a very small consolation.

Well, nothing now to do but laugh... :roflol:

Thank you. :oops: I'd honestly rather not have the Faerie pb than get guilty every time I looked at my Bori.

Well, she didn't give me the Faerie paint brush, which I kind of expected. We kept in contact through neomails, and the last one she sent me told me I was in her top three bids. I hope whoever she chose actually gave her a decent deal.

:) Found a bunch of codestones a few days ago (all Orn, actually o_O )
:) Am now reselling all of the furniture and MPs I bought for that trade for a marginal profit.
:( The snow faerie got sick of me winning decent stuff off of her and hasn't given me a decent quest in days.
:cry: R0my is fishing level 89 and STILL no Fishing Avatar!

Sweet. I didn't think it would be every 50 instead of every 100.

Good, good, so I have 50 issues to write my stories and color my comics. :P

Congratulations, stampsyne! :)

Edit: Not so much a gloat as a "what the heck" moment- I just got a neomail from some guy I've never heard of, asking if I'd be his neofriend. I kindly declined, then I wandered over to auctions to check my bid on a cheap techo trans potion, only to find that he outbid me before he neomailed me! I think he was hoping... erm, actually, I'm not sure what he was thinking. :roll:
