What does TNT want us to do for the random contest ? Just write a story or what?

The submission box won't actually let you enter more than 25 characters, so it looks like you have to enter a number or a short-yet-witty phrase.
I shortened my rant by simply putting "MUCH TOO MANY ENOUGH!" and it fit, so I'm happy.

Hmm...I was able to submit a lot more than 25 characters.

Kryse! I absolutely <i>adore</i> your avatar.

Thanks I like it too . I prefer Sailor Saturn but didn't feel like going out and trying to find a good picture so I just stuck with Pluto.

I've been annoying my dad by eating up the bandwidth by downloading various series of Sailor Moon

Ah fun fun, but they have such pretty box sets out for all of them except for Stars, but I can understand the poorness, and I suppose if you dont live in the US which is possible. Now lets stick to neo before we get yelled at.

hehe, ok

Then I guess it just didn't like me.

I was able to submit WAY more than that.. like.. two paragraphs.. just no commas or periods. *nods*

I believe it's because they have something scanning our entrees for random words and if we had it - we won. (they did it before)

So was I. I submitted a paragraph.

My entry:
Well my temple only has 420 tombs, so I shall be expecting a refund!
Needless to say, I NEVER won a caption competition

So no one knows the answer for the latest LC puzzle?

-edited-

hmm... could use some help for once

We discuss the LC over in a different thread in Neopets Help. Look for LC'ers over there.

We don't post the answers for LC's, though. So everyone who is posting their math over here should probably stop.

Automated computer programmes will be the downfall of me.

Credit to Jellyneo for this... but lookie what is (probably) going to happen in the next part of the plot!

Bye fruit machine.

[Kryse]

it's 4am and I'm off to bed. G'night and thanks for all the fish! I mean help!
*note to self: do not try to be funny at 4am*

Hey, I thought it was funny. And its only 9ish here. (maybe I just have a bad sense of humor)

Edit:

Bye fruit machine.

No not the precious fruitmachine!

Does anyone know what types of guards Amira has? All I can tell are Tonu, Elephantes, and Rukis, but some of the long shots have what look like Grarrls and/or Lupes.

I hate having to try 12 different doors just to find a statue so I can be buried in scarabs. It would make so much more logical sense if a part of the riddle gave what symbol you needed. Having a 1/12 chance of moving on with the plot isn't fun in any sense of the word. TNT obviously thinks all of us sit infront of the computer all day and have nothing better to do than to wait 1 or 12 hours for our next chance to advance in another one of their ill-concieved monstrocities they call "plots".

I'm sorry if I sound a bit harsh, but I like it when I'm given all the information I need to advance. I don't care how hard it may be to pull that info out, I just want the info to be there. I'm not a big fan of guessing on what to do, if you haven't guessed already.

Hi. This is my first post, but I've been lurking for a while- and I appreciate all of the help I have found here. I have finished my tablet and my prophecy.

My question, hopefully not stupid, is this:

In the news, this was on the page...

"I was just minding my own business, when somebody wearing a long coat came sauntering in. Well...not sauntering really. I can't explain the way they moved. They didn't appear to be taking steps of any kind... Anyways...that isn't what is important. So they played Potato counter, right? Well, and get ready for this...they got the right answer in under 5 seconds! Smart, huh? I bet a person like that could solve ANY quest."

Is this just random? Or could it have ANYTHING to do with the plot? I am probably grasping at straws, but hey- seems like most of us are pretty anxious at this point.

I tried getting the potato count right in under 5 seconds, but couldn't do it with only 3 tries in a day-

I checked it out and it's just part of the NeoAdventure Spotlight Winner's story. Pretty sure it's irrelevant to the plot.

EDIT: Oh yeah and welcome to the boards!

On the contrary, I think TNT know not everyone is on 24/7, that is why the clues are slow in coming.

As this is a game played by people from all walks of life, different time zones and different mental ability it would be unfair just to throw out all the clues and let whoever was on at the time to work it out. It gives a fair amount of time for everyone to work on the clues.

The Temple was there without clues for weeks before all the "tablet clues" came out. It gave more people the chance to look around, map and find all the important doors - statue, libraries.

I like this plot, it gives thinkers a chance as well as battlers ( as a battledome fight will come in to it.)
