During this event, users could join '''[[Lulu]]'s Masterful Plundering''', where Lulu raided her cousins' bedrooms for exclusive [[Neocash]] wearable prizes. | |||
Each day, Lulu and the player could find two prizes, one in Aristotle's room and one in Abigail's. In order to raid one of the bedrooms, players had to purchase the key to the room from the [[NC Mall]] for 700 NC. There were two keys to buy - one for each of the rooms - and buying one of the keys allowed the player to earn all the wearables from that room for the entire event. | |||
Activating the keys awarded the player a bonus background wearable. | |||

==Behind the scenes== | |||
The theme for this challenge plays on both the [[wikipedia:internet meme|internet meme]] of [[wikipedia:Pirates versus Ninjas|pirates versus ninjas]] as well as there being two rivalling training schools on [[Mystery Island]] and [[Krawk Island]] - the [[Mystery Island Training School]] and the [[Swashbuckling Academy]]. | |||
The titles of the challenges also referenced other works: | |||
*''It Takes a Thief...'' is part of a [http://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/british/it-takes-a-thief-to-catch-a-thief proverb] about catching thieves. It is also the name of of two TV series, one beginning in [[wikipedia:It Takes a Thief (1968 TV series)|1968]] and one beginning in [[wikipedia:It Takes a Thief (2005 TV series)|2005]]. | |||
*''Now You See Them, Now You Don't...'' refers to the title of a 1972 film, ''[[wikipedia:Now You See Him, Now You Don't|Now You See Him]]''. | |||
*''In Space, No One Can Hear You Play...'' is a play on the tagline for the 1979 film [[wikipedia:Alien (film)|''Alien'']], "In space, no one can hear you scream." | |||
*''Four Scores and 56 To Go...'' is is a play on the phrase "four score and seven years ago", from [[wikipedia:Abraham Lincoln|Abraham Lincoln]]'s [[wikipedia:Gettysburg Address|Gettysburg Address]]. | |||
[[The Neopets Team]] reported that [http://www.neopets.com/ntimes/index.phtml?section=editorial&issue=623 complaints about the trophies] they received this year led them to make one set of trophies silver and the other set gold in the [[Games Master Challenge 2013|following year's challenge]]. | |||
===Bug=== | |||
Day seven's challenges originally all required a score of 5 to complete, rather than the scores they actually asked for. | |||
