Eesh, Blue. I'm sorry I've been sending them to you. I was trying to find the stats that suggested it should be a net positive, but of course now I can't.

Do you want me to stop sending them?

Don't worry about it. It was my choice to use them It has been a fun experiment, and I might try a few more of them. How does that go? Throwing good money after bad? For full disclosure, I spent ~250k on 2 bubbling fungus because the odds were supposedly better. Wound up even on stats. Complete waste of NP.

I think I can still lose 13 more strength before losing the boost?

Maybe we can do Order this week on the Obelisk Battles? I could the refreshed quest boon!

Blue, that's reallllly rotten luck with those. Bubbling Fungus is supposed to be better, for sure, but...eh. The next hospital prize pool should have some positive-only strength boosters, so you might be better off waiting for those?

Thanks, Pickles! I got a fancy glass tea set... A toy worth 1k. Could be worse. But could also be a lot better!

Blue, I'll keep sending any more I get, but hopefully we'll unlock the next prize pool soon (and get lots of the strength item).

Ooh. A Rod of Supernoava!

Err. I mean a Red Neocola Token. Much better than colored pencils

I noticed for the last 2 days in a row the plot points given when battling are 5 less than before. 3 rounds of 50, then the 4th round is only 45... It was 4 rounds of 50 each :/

Thanks, Pickles!

Blue, JN had a note about that. Apparently it says the wrong amount in the dialogue, but it actually does give you the right amount of points if you check your rewards page.

Interesting. TBH, I rarely look at my points page.

Tarla is in today! Remaining times: 2:10pm, 7:30pm; main Lime Swirly Negg (R84, 3 negg points) (https://tinyurl.com/NeopetsTarlaTimes -- thanks Bean and Edd!) (drops are occurring as of the time of this edit; main was 7:16am)

Warning: I finished both hospital shifts this morning at 6:20 and started new ones. (I always visually confirm that they're both on shifts before leaving the page, and after this, I also did training and scratchcard kiosk, so I'm 100% sure I finished this -- I remember putting both on a second shift and visually confirming).

I happened to accidentally click on the hospital page at 7:30 and decided to confirm they were both on their shifts (because I have anxiety, though not full blown OCD). But my second pet was not on a shift! I resubmitted her shift, but of course now they're out of sync.

I've had other issues where I've had to reclick through the dialogue tree before the shift showed up, but it's never shown up and then poofed before. I don't know if it's from server issues, if it was just a one time fluke, or what, but I'm quite annoyed because the midnight/6am shift was perfect for me, and I'll eventually lose a shift at some point now (as the 1:30 shift gets later and later, I'll eventually sleep through it).

I recommend refreshing the page after you submit your shifts and confirming that your pets are still signed into a shift.

I'd be less annoyed if both had failed to sign up, honestly. I should just go ahead and resync them, but I'm stubborn like that...

Daily Tasks:

5) Battle in BV wave I and/or II
6) Daily quests and Trudy and regular dailies
7) Altador Cup (Unless you're Meridell)

These daily chapter updates have been...interesting.

I will try to update the main links threads later today. This weekend was a mess, and I've ended up with a minor cold, so I feel...fuzzy. Bleh.

Interesting event in the battledome yesterday. I have admittedly become lazy battling the voidlings by not bothering to use the faerie ability to prevent their attack (it's 2 less clicks per battle), then on the last wave use the LEV and Lens Flare... When I started this, I thought, "I hope they don't have some sort of weapon that can cause a void disease like Juni...' One my rote battles (Lev2) abruptly ended after the 2nd voidling (wave 2) and I received NP and 50 plot points. But, I still had 3 rounds to go to max out plot points... Turns out my battle pet was too sick to battle. Uh oh. Fortunately, it was Watery Eyes and I had the cure in my SDB. But, lesson learned.

Apparently, when the void opponents use the Void Blade, there is a small chance of getting Watery Eyes. Definitely make sure to Lens Flare every time to avoid this.

No new plot page today for a change.

TNT did actually do what I was worried they would, and released the previously found Plot Points Fortune Cookie. If it wasn't giving people more points towards their trophy for Void Essences, I wouldn't be too upset about it, but...it is. I hope this was just an oversight and will be fixed. Otherwise, it's just a way of getting your max points for the day faster, and getting some extra points for the prize shop (which is still distasteful, in my opinion). Definitely will not be spending any NC on this thing.
There is another cookie that has been found. We'll see if/when it gets released.

I saw the Plot Points Cookie in the NC Mall, but the description sounded odd:



This is really unclear to me. Do you get 2X the daily max points, or do you reach the daily max points 2X as fast? i.e. Instead of 200 points for battling, you get 400? Or you just need to battle half as much (e.g., 2 rounds on level 2) to get to 200 points faster?

ETA: The PP Cookies seem to be selling well. In the time it took me to write this post, they sold ~24 of them. That is good for Neopets perhaps (and for us - It's ~$60 real money into TNT's bank account for this one item in a few minutes. Will go towards paying the staff, servers, internet, etc. to keep Neopets alive and solvent)

ETA2: In the time to add my ETA, 50 more were sold.
