Is anyone else experiencing a huge amount of lag?

Yes, I would say it is from the Daily Dare. The lag started as soon as DD came live on site at about 1am NST.

Yes. >.< Loads of lag.

Does anyone else think that maybe the Daily Dare might actually tie in with the plot?

Probably not, but we have a story with them this time instead of just "here, have a challenge." They got kidnapped by some mysterious bad guy.....

That's interesting. At the top of the Daily Dare story page, it says 'Chapter: 1'. Does that imply there could be more of a storyline...?
I think they might tie in. Looks interesting.

I don't think the 2 are tied in. TNT had the Daily Dare last year--I think it was last March, also. As far as the Chapters go, I can't remember if we had a story explaining why we had to challange AAA and Abigail. I THINK there was something, just maybe not as potentially elaborate as this year's.

I want them to be tied in, but I don't have enough info yet to speculate.

It looked like a Wocky kidnapped AAA and Abigail. Is there a wocky in the Sloth plot (that we know of, yet?).

And I've noticed the lag. It was slow going doing my dailies this morning!

This petpage:

lists all the combos for the Orn symbols.

Within the list given -
jpg4 - Look for the Key of X and the Result of 8
jpg5 - Look for the Key of X and the Result of 8
jpg10 - Look for the Key of C and the Result of 8
jpg 16 - Look for the Key of 0 and the Result of x
jpg 17 - Look for the Key of 8 and the Result of 0

They will be the only combinations for you to solve the message.

X= Mau Codestone symbol
8= Vo Codestone symbol
C= Lu Codestone symbol
0= Orn Codestone symbol

Daily Dare is out, new challengers, and I've not maxed out the first wave yet, I'll never get these done

I haven't noticed a lag...and while I don't think the two events are tied to each other, I'm not going to put it past TNT. What possible use could Dr. Frank Sloth have for the two gaming neopets? o_O

Arogance, I'm pretty sure (maybe check the editorial?) that if you havent done the first two steps, then the BD stuff doesnt count...

The new plot is really awesome, but isn't it sort of unfair that those of us who are stuck on the decoding can't continue on with the plot? It's only the second step, and if I have to finish the decoding to do the rest of the plot, it will make me sad. *sad face* ~cheeseworld101
That step came out weeks ago. We try to make sure there is plenty of time for you to figure out the puzzles so that you can continue on with the plot. We understand that some steps are difficult, but we have to make sure there is something in the plots for all levels of people. We are sorry, but everyone must pass that plot step, though, to continue on with the plot.

That would be a real kick in the teeth, now even more I need help to beat these mods

I couldnt work them out logically, just go through em with brute force. Try option 1 with 2 and 3, then 1,2,4 etc. Takes a while, but you get there eventually.

Gosh, TNT is giving us plenty to do! First the plot, now the daily dare too. Not sure how I feel about it. On the other hand I do really like these activities, but it is a bit much. I wonder why the didn't host the events on different dates. If you'd spread the events out over the year, wouldn't there be a more constant flow of players over the year? But I like both events so I can't complain.

These are my BD stats so far:
Garoo Elite Junior Squadron +201
Garoo Elite Strike Commanders +75
Garoo Elite Specialist Riilan +10
Mutant Grundo Scouts +150
Virtupets Militia +45

I'm going to fight the grundo scouts up to 200 and maybe I can get a few wins on the garoo strike commanders and the virtupets militia. That's enought for me

Does anyone think there will be win limits this time? I'm not really sure. On the one hand I think there will be win limits, because it's the only way the get a balance between the two parts (so it won't overshadow the puzzle part completely). On the other hand TNT is leaving the oponnents open for quite a long time.

If someone could give me weapon recommendations here, that would be great! I think it just kind of slipped under the radar after the downtime and I'd like some advice (however late it is) now that the war is on. Thanks!
