I fell in love with them when I spotted someone else's Faerie Ruki on Reddit and started playing around with them. I ended up creating two on Ruki day with similar names (Rukicubs and Rukacub) as I couldn't decide. So if my foster sister doesn't want the spare one, I may end up with a Faerie one as well in the future! They can be twins! I'll keep looking at the Spring brush to see if it goes back to it's previous price... and keep refreshing Tyrannian petpets in case I get lucky with a reasonably priced Rock!! That Kiiyak is strangely woodland looking though isn't it!
-
And you were right - it took rather a lot of patience and practice but I managed. I've been trying Extreme Herder today... my top score is 192 so far... I swear those petpets are frankly suicidal!!
-
Well, the Feed Florg avatar is almost achievement enough, but I might just be in line for a trophy!! Heck, I'll happily take bronze!!
-
HOLY HELL! Weeks worth of trying and I got it!! And with a score of 263 I might even be in line for a trophy if I'm lucky!!
-
I think that was one of the reasons I was drawn to them, as that is definitely my semi-permanent custom for that pet. I have a couple of np clothing items left to go and that's it. Whilst I frequently mix and match with my main account customs, I don't have enough items on my sides to do the same!! Thanks! I was quite pleased I managed to trade for the various NC items for it!!
-
Thanks! One more down... only like ten million to go!! The Mibble is very cute - I like the rocky texture. The Rock I just like how it looks like a piece of bark, which seems to fit well with the Woodland Ruki!
-
That Spring Ona is also adorable!! And I wouldn't have to cough up the 500,000np for the PP Paint Brush at the moment!! I may have to pick one up as an interim petpet, even if I do end up exchanging it out later down the line!! I have a Desert Babaa on another pet and as there are so many to choose from, I'd prefer not to duplicate species if possible... Yep, interim petpet decided on! According to JN, the PB has been hovering around 1.7-1.8 since March-ish, but 1.4 is the lowest it's been since 2017, so I'll take that!!
-
Oooh, I hadn't thought of the Spring Petpets... but they are very cute... and I even have a Brown Slorg that refuses to sell in my Shop! I may wait a while to see if the Spring Paint Brush comes down in price mind... as it seems to have doubled since that Spring Slorg came out!!
-
I hit my savings goal at just the moment to realise that the Woodland Paint Brush had decreased in value from 1.8 million last I checked to 1.4 million!! I'm just debating over a petpet now... I like the Woodland Rock, but Rock's are extortionately priced!! More affordable options would be the Woodland Juma, Mibli or Ukalie...

Is there a Limit on Gallery Size?
Secre replied to Sciurus carolinensis's topic in Neopets General Chat
You have far more dilligence than me! Keep trying, the spooky gallery surely can't be neglected forever, particularly if you are continually adding to it!! -
That does work beautifully!! I love the extent we go to in order to hide the pumpkins!! I'm almost glad it didn't... I spent way too much real money as it was!!! I was really glad I splurged on the 16 pack though - there were several excellent items in the pack like the Poison Vase and Skulls Foreground, Gnawing Zomutt and the Vile Vegetation Foreground and even Lil Frankie Comes to Life! I suspect I'll use the rest as trading fodder, and have already managed to trade the Pile of Bones Foreground for the Fire and Ice Background!!

I think whichever way you look at this, we have a responsibility to protect the environment we live in and we are failing massively. As @jellysundae remarks, our neglect may have significantly wider consequences than just 'animal species die-offs'. If you take it just on one micro-spectrum, you have the loss of bees from environments. Last year 40% of honey bee colonies died off during the winter and they are my no means the only insect declining in population. This has been forewarned as the precursor to a sixth extinction event on earth and could obviously have catastrophic impacts. A number of plants, such as many of the bee orchids, are pollinated exclusively by specific bees, and they would die off without human intervention. This would alter the composition of their habitats and affect the food webs they are part of and would likely trigger additional extinctions or declines of dependent organisms.
-
Apparently if you remove items at the same time as pricing them it can also muddle up your prices and put the price ahead of it in accidentally. Not sure how true that is, btw. Just something I've read on Reddit!!! But congrats! I was really chuffed when I sniped one of the bubbling bags at 20,000np!

I mean, I've just been stocking things in my SDB because I hate spending 20k on upgrading my gallery, so OUCH!!! Have you ever tried for the Gallery Spotlight!??? -
Hah, the pumpkins are nearly covered up in my spider web foreground which is a double win. But yes, it is very, very nice. They've really captured the silhouette of the trees against the sky. Yes, unfortunately it was the bonus item for buying the 16 pack for the Haunted Mansion NC event and I suspect it will have a reasonably high trading value on it once Waka etc update their logs, I'm afraid. Thanks, I tried it out with a few of my pets, but most of them already have their spooky groove going anyway, which she was still in regular Autumn getup!
-
I mean, how spooky is this???! I imagine it would be striking enough on it's own as well!! I mean - yep!!
-
Finally got rid of the sad grey colour and got a luminescent glowing instead... only a slight improvement!
-
Some excellent suggestions, thank you both!!! The Dark Secret Background and the Perilous Catacombs are perhaps my favourites I think. I shall continue to ponder, as I have all month before I can send her over to her new home. I really like the Shenkuu Mansion Background, but it's right on my price limit... so we shall see how generous I end up feeling!! Thanks again both of you!
-
I've never really played with Meerca's either as I've never owned one... so this could be fun!
-
So my stuck pet is about to get adopted out! She's going to someone's son and I want to surprise him with a background. So stealthy backgrounds anyone? NP only and preferably under 200k... or thereabouts.
-
Eh, often or not when I make my own bets I tank mind you!! What I've started doing is taking Garet's bets and then fiddling with them - so I didn't like the fact that he'd ignored Sproggie yesterday on the three arena bets. So I took the (hopefully) least likely 'safety' bet and ditched that, replacing it with the 52 Sproggie bet... And got lucky on it!! I've treated Harpoon Harry's as a positive today and ten bet Admiral Blackbeard though, so this might well end up not working so well for me!! But I figure with a 60:1 win day, I can afford to lose a day if it comes down to it!! And I think Boochi is being a tad optimistic today and so have gone with a less risky approach. I’m not confident his four safeties are as safe as he says, particularly Treasure and Shipwreck. The last bet is a risky chase, and I should probably have removed Goob from it to have it as a regular safety, but I got greedy!! Wish me luck!!

I've done quite well this week as I've been playing with bets to cover additional safeties. Yesterday was an absolute win as I dropped a safety (risk!) to add Sproggie to the three bets and came up trumps!!

November starts just in time for the UK to go back into a full lockdown. Hoping for good things for the birthday! And let’s see if the Vandragyre colour is less hideous than the mutant!!
