I snagged Tavi Mountain Gear Shorts on a tea set, so Tavi said I can keep them. Now all I need is her hat.

There's a special prize that you have to click on to win during the campfire game. It won't show up on the list, but you'll only win it if you do click on it. So far, I haven't noticed it, but I would probably overlook it even if it did appear. Here's the info from JN:

Very rarely, an additional item can appear on the board, and although it will not display in the checklist, clicking it will reward it as a bonus prize. The item is a pumpkin stick, which looks like a jack-o'-lantern lollipop.

This is good to know. I do not recall if I have seen that or not, simply because I was not looking for it. At this point, you know what is typically on the list and can click on the items without even looking at the list

Finally got the Tavi Mountain Gear Hat! That's all the wearables I wanted from the Void Within games, but I'll still play them when I have the time to try for the books, stamps, gallery items, etc. I enjoy them.

I've been playing both games every day for the items. Still trying to get the Scary Tree Stamp and have it actually award. Got the Tea Time Stamp (finally), but still waiting on the other one. Campfire has some sort of bug where it doesn't award the prize it shows sometimes. I've seen I've narrowed that down (for me at least) to finishing before 1:11 on the clock. If I finish at 1:12, no prize. 1:11, it works fine. I did see the Scary Tree Stamp once...but it was before I'd figured out the timing thing so I didn't actually get it.

Good to know about the times. I have played occasionally on my slow-as-molasses-in-January computer which takes more time off the clock just because it is s-u-p-e-r laggy. Today, I went ahead and played on my "regular" computer and it works great. And... I just picked up the mysterious Pumpkin Stick as well

ETA: Description of the Pumpkin Stick is A curse on you! :lol:

ETA2:

Apparently, it is an 8 icon (light) Battledome weapon as well.

More trivia: It was originally released exclusively as a prize for Lenny Conundrum #44.

Wow, Blue! I've been keeping an eye out for it since just after the plot ended and never seen it. Congrats!

I don't think I have to worry about the clock. I lose too much time on my phone clicking wrong items, and on my PC, it's too fine motor skills for me to finish that fast with my non-dominant hand using the mouse. Pretty sure I'm hard stuck on the bronze trophy -- and lucky to have gotten that.

No luck today. Tavi didn't give me a single doable quests, and the others both gave me duplicates.

Edit: and the next day I got the Understanding Forest Fires book! (And my sixth circuit markings, same as I got yesterday). Time for Tavi... And on her second quest, she asked me for the (duplicate) item I won from the campfire yesterday! ... Only to give me my five hundredth Kyrie explorer TCG.... And the next two quests were also overpriced, so we'll have to see if I remember to check in with her again today.

FINALLY got the Scary Tree Stamp again, and it awarded this time! Persistence paid off. Happily in my album now.

Persistence paid off! I also finally got the scary tree stamp.

That's it for the album items. I still need some of the rare foods, book on fire, greyed expectations, gigantic bonfire, and the pumpkin stick... Skipping Tavi from now on. The only one of her prizes I'm missing is the electric Aisha plushie, and I don't care about that one. Woohoo! I actually enjoy the other two mini games, but Tavi has always felt like a chore.

I got the Pumpkin Stick today, finally! Woot!

I still haven't seen the pumpkin stick at all, and I've done it every single day. It's one of 12 camping prizes I'm still missing (plus one Voidworks(.

Did you guys play on hard when you saw it?

Pickles · **Posted:** Fri Feb 28, 2025 5:25 am

This was the first time I've ever seen it. I've played on hard and as far as I know, every single day. It jumped out like a sore thumb because I'm so accustomed to the items that belong there now that I was like !!!!! It's the Pumpkin Stick!!

Siniri · **Posted:** Fri Feb 28, 2025 4:04 pm

Thanks! Good to know I'll see it when it's there. The prizes I'm still missing are split evenly between the two lists, so I just keep playing on hard. And it seems like the prizes repeat when I (very rarely) have to replay a level because one of them is too hidden and I run out of time, so I feel like it's just luck of the draw if you play every day.

Blue · **Posted:** Fri Feb 28, 2025 10:07 pm

I also was playing on Hard. I was pretty much at the point that I knew what each needed item looked and mostly stopped looking at the list on the right. Ditto for the "bogus" items. I will bet that the pumpkin stick will jump out at you for being out of place when it finally appears.

Soooo....there were screenshots taken that the plot was supposed to continue today (some people caught the timeline having an update that listed today's date before it was removed), but...this is now in the news today. So...who knows when it'll start back up now?

Hello, Neopians! Thank you for your patience and understanding as we revamp the upcoming chapters of the Void Within plot. We’ve made phenomenal progress, and although we were hoping to resume the story around this time, new priorities such as Quest Log adjustments and adding value to Premium have set us back a bit. Due to these delays, we will need a little more time to ensure the plot is the very best it can be.

We apologize for not being able to return to the plot as soon as we were originally planning and hope that you can sit tight just a little while longer. Our goal is to have the plot ready to start back up within the coming months, and we will be sure to release updates as soon as we can share a finalized return date with you!

We are terribly sorry if our admin updates got your hopes up for the plot resuming today, but we promise that you won’t have to wait much longer. Thank you for bearing with us!
