Finally got the Plasma Wearable! Now I just need the book and the plushie!

I have the stamp (yaaaaay! First time) and then two slushies and the petpet from the plasma negg (booooo, I wanted the wearable!). I definitely want the plushie from the rocket negg (they have already dropped in price significantly so even if I don't get one, I'll buy one). And the book and the plasma effect wearable. After that it's dupes of stamp/book/wearables for later re-selling.

I do both currently! Training via cookies is definitely a huge boon! But yeah, the codestone prices are ridiculous. I just paid 45k+ for the Cui's. And typically, this mornings training also wants Cui! In comparison to the smoothie for the Earth Faerie which was 2650 and netted me 2 defence and 2 HP. Huge difference! I'm just plodding my strength up via the training school right now. And taking whatever Faerie boons I can get for everything else!

Glad to know it's not just me! It's been driving me crackers though. Mass tickets sounds like an awesome plan!

I'm having fun and games around the site at the moment as it keeps glitching on me randomly. When buying from user shops I get the 'this transaction has expired' despite only just opening the page. Followed by 'you've reloaded too quickly' that can last for several minutes and even after refreshing the shop proper. On several occasions, I've had to go to the user's profile and re-click on the shop through there in order to get the thing to work properly. In my SDB I'm getting told I need to put my PIN in. Which would be fine. But I put my PIN in first time! So I have to go back, refresh the page and then withdraw items again. Is anybody else getting these weird glitches and do we know why they have started happening so frequently?

Does the Secret Ninja School always want a Cui Codestone from me?? I have so many red codestones stockpiled, but so very few of them are Cui and the repeated reliance on them has reduced my stock to the point that I've had to buy more. I'm in double digits for all of the others (or close enough) and yet it's Cui, Cui, Cui!

Apparently according to the Reddit hive mind, camo is meant to be a ferret. Either way, both are fairly boring colours. Meh. The outfit feels a bit bleh as well...

The origami colour is very cute indeed!! I love the scales going down the snout! Not so sure about the spiky things. I agree with @GlitchtaleLover that they might work better without all of them there...

Just bit the bullet and sold my AC stamp from last year. That's a ... scary amount of neopoints... I was chuffed when I saw that my shop had netted me another million, but this takes the cake! Reason I sold in the end? I am never, ever going to have enough neopoints to complete the stamp albums now, so there seems little point in using such a darn expensive one!

I finally got around to re-stocking my shop and pricing everything - bought a months Premium for the SSW as the collectible was also cute this month. Made over a million and still got a full shop. Most of it is lower priced books/stamps/clothes now admittedly.

I wish I'd got through my backlog before the new inventory became the only inventory. Poor planning on my behalf, but yep, definitely NOT an improvement. I'll refrain from buying any more. It's not as though I actually need the CC points in honesty. If CC ever happens again. I got stuck at the 36 mark as number 36 was at about 40 hits and counting and my irritation got the best of me. I stick my pets in the flea hotel and be done with it, I'm afraid. There is: https://thedailyneopets.com/neoavatars/pinatas-amp-candy But it's only for the first pinata you break. I'm hunting 'cheaper' CC items as you can often buy the Pawkeet ones at a very low price and they have the possibility of one or two six point items in them. Which is how I came to have a stockload. Bought them whenever I saw them cheap and then couldn't be bothered to break them. Only I waited too long and now I have to do it via the new inventory. I used to just re-click on the item in the old inventory and it would 'refresh it'. No reloading, no back button. Just use it in the pop up and then click on the item again in the full window. Why do they have to make things more tedious... Oooh, I'll have to try that and see if it's any quicker. I'll report back!

I mean, they weren't fun before but now the page reloads every time it's just mind numbingly tedious. I've done 16 out of 52. And so far I'm not having good luck either 6 points: 6x Jelly Bean Pirate Chest, 3x Candy Pirate Earrings 2 points: 7x Pirate Hat Toffees, 4x Pawkeet Pencil Sharpener, 6x Fire Candy Buttons, 4x Glowing Top, 4x Buried Treasure Crackers, 4x Rice Crackers, 3x Wooden Pirate Ship, 2x Stripy Spinning Top 1 point: 3x Altador Yoyo, 2x Dipped Orange Bonbon Urgh. And there's 36 to go...

That's for the base pets anyway. There are almost always a few exceptions where specific colours appeal to me though. So grundo's do very little for me but I like the Halloween and Marshmallow ones. Burlap Meerca's are cool, the Woodland Techo was nicely done, And often the Mara/Mutant versions are cool, although again species dependant.

He had some awesome days last month apparently. Unfortunately I missed the big wins by becoming active again during a Trash Week. On the plus side, you've missed Trash Week! (Trash Week being a week of upsets where either 13:1's won in the positives or there were double upsets and so the safety bets didn't cover the possibility.)

Yay! I've been trying to get this for ages... when I remember at least!

Yep, you need to do all ten bets. Always do all ten from the same person and it works best if you stick with that person for the long haul as different betters have different rates of winning and if you try and pick and choose you can find yourself losing a lot. When the opening odds come out some arenas will be positive - so they have one 2:1 and three higher numbers (7:1, 13:1, 13:1 for example), meaning there is a decent chance those 2:1's will win. The higher the other numbers, the better the positive. Other arenas will be 'boosters' - a spread of lower numbers like 2:1, 3:1, 4:1, 7:1 - giving them a chance of winning bigger when you add them to the positive. Bets will use the positives arenas as the 'base'. Decent booster arenas are then picked, so seven bets for instance may go to boosting two arenas (say a 2:1, 3:1, 4:1, 8:1 and 2:1, 3:1, 3:1, 13:1 - the 13:1 doesn't get a bet as the chances are so low). Remaining bets will be used on safeties (you want to cover any of the non 13:1 pirates usually to cover your bases) and if there's a bet left it will go on a base bet (the 2:1's from the positive arenas alone). If you don't use all ten bets, you significantly reduce your chances of winning anything.

Samurai also works! I think it was the horns that made me think Viking in honesty!

Oh I love that outfit. I will have to wait for prices to drop and then start hunting down the pieces. It'll be a bit of a culture shock for my Plushie Shoyru, but well worth it! The Steampunk is well done as well. It doesn't seem as obnoxiously busy as many of them are! Reminds me of Vikings, I think.

Yeah, my current plan is to hold off to sell until the plot. I have a ton of tan codestones I can offload at the same time. There's just over a mils worth in non plot inflation, so I hope to come out reasonably well. Particularly as I will keep collecting from the Battledome... I'm going to make a loss on the Parachute First Aid Kit regardless though! I paid 800k odd for it. It seems to have settled at 230-300k now. We'll see if a plot can boost it!

Yeah, this is more or less where my brain is. I may hold onto it until April 27th to see if inspiration strikes in terms of a new name. If I can think of an awesome killer bunny name before then, I may have the best of both worlds! I've done quite well out of this Vandy zapping though. I got a Desert zap a while back and moved the clothes across to my Toy Vandy (re-painting the Desert one a base colour before moving back) for a cross paint that cost me zero! Yeah, my thinking was save the cost of the morphing potion as even the base colours are 1.8mil-2mil odd. Then paint baby myself. Made sense in my head but I didn't think through the chances of getting really cool zaps! Yep, exactly! That's a good idea! Deadline of April 27th to come up with another name or this one turns back into a zapper!

I have to admit, I thought these were all quite clever and enjoyed reading through them!

Looking forward to Lutari and Cybunny Day! I always like seeing what new things come for the Kougra's as well, even though I no longer have one. My pets don't seem to have done me too badly although I'm side eyeing the raw potato and yam-lime pizza!

The mushroom markings are very cool. Although yes I agree that the eyes are ... a tad bit overblown. It works quite well on the Tyrannian Chomby as well, although the moss isn't great with the spikes unfortunately. And the eyes can be a miss! Toy Chomby is quite cool as well!

So I've been zapping a pet in the hopes of getting a Cybunny. You see, the pets name is LovelyMassacre and that led to this idea: Inspired by Killer Bunnies as you can imagine. Only the last lab zap turned him stealthy and I have to admit, this also kind of fits the name, doesn't it? Plus he does look kinda awesome. Do I zap over the Stealthy and continue hoping for Cybunny... or do I give this one up as a lost cause. Keep him Stealthy and try to think of another name suitable for a killer bunny by April 27th Cybunny Day?

So I've been on off zapping for a Cybunny. I now have a Stealthy Vandagyre. Not quite what I had envisioned in honesty!
