The Daily Neopets
TheDailyNeopets is a fan site of Neopets which began in late 2005. Formerly a subsidary of PinkPT, the owner and administrator of TDN (TheDailyNeopets), Tipem, had previously ran a commentary for PPT. After a month of hard work tending to the commentary, Yukio purchased TheDailyNeopets.com for Tipem. As PinkPT did not post unreleased Neopets news at the time, TheDailyNeopets' main purpose was to do so. Over the coming year, TDN has blossomed into a fully independent fan site, with its servers based in the loungeroom of its Administrator, Tipem, in Ohio, USA.
Staff
TheDailyNeopets employs an active group as members of staff. Currently, there are 7 staff members, with one spot assigned to the Administrator (Tipem); one spot assigned to a News Poster (Hyperknuckles); 3 spots assigned to Content Writers (Samuel, PineappleJoe, Animetriplicate); and 2 spots assigned to the Graphics Staff (Tanuki, Nadyell). TDN is currently employing Content Writers and Graphics Staff via email application.
Where's Jerry?
On June 1, 2006, TheDailyNeopets began an on-site plot to find Jerry, the red Pteri, their mascot. Set up by Samuel, a member of staff, the plot involves various puzzles and is quite challenging. At the start of the plot, Bob the Detective Wocky was introduced, as the crime-fighting guru. The solutions of the plot are held in upmost secrecy; the threat of disqualification used in deterrence. Every 2 days, another part of the plot is released, with an estimate of 6 parts in total.
