    I've had similar luck. Got a second one a couple of days ago and got my Shroom Chia.

    And just got another one for a whopping 2000np. Might paint one of my mutant pets...

    Well, I'm now a back street omelette dealer. My shop till is looking very healthy. Started selling at 4000np yesterday. Selling at 13,000np today. I bought these things at 200np or under. 
      
    The petpet is why I picked Jhudora. Loved the little Gruslen.
    I think the problem is that they hyped this as CC and it isn't CC. CC is unlimited donations and rewards those who work at it. This is everyone gets a gold sticky star for less than a minutes effort a day. If they hadn't hyped it, maybe people wouldn't be so disappointed. But they did. And they told us to keep hoarding our trash. And then they made it so you can only donate 30 items a day, which means omelettes are now currency as they are worth 8 points which is crashing the site worse than unlimited donations as everyone frantically buys and sells omelettes.
    We've been waiting three years for Charity Corner. To hype this as 'the best parts of Charity Corner' is absolute nonsense and they deserve all the shade thrown at them.

    WOW! The FF has been very nice to me this year! Just received another Dip in the Rainbow Pool for the third time this year. The first time was via a Faerie Quest Fortune Cookie and the other two via the Faerie Festival this year with in days of each other! Finally got my Chocolate Wocky!  I am loving this! I am hoping I get another one to finally paint my Gnorbu.

    So the prize shops are up. And I am disappoint. There are no new items - it's all just re-releases of old items. Top prize for Illusen is the Illusens Staff but top prize for Jhudora is Jhudoras Cloud Stamp, not her staff. 
    Who'd have thought it. Illusens Staff is now officially worth 120 omelettes. This site is absolutely ridiculous.
    Illusen: https://items.jellyneo.net/prize-shop-guide/?shop=46
    Jhudora: https://items.jellyneo.net/prize-shop-guide/?shop=47&points_left=&sort_by=1&sort_dir=asc
    ETA: You can tell how disillusioned I am that I've picked Jhudora because the Staff is now going to drop so dramatically in price, I can buy it from the SW in ten days. Yay. Also, completed my donations in under a minute. What an event! How brilliantly engaging it is! It will make me spend hours on the site! /fullonannoyedsarcasm if nobody has gathered.

    I've beenn absently checking the clothing shop today - not as often as I probably should but motivation is at an all time low. The Grey Faerie wants Ixi Fuzzy Markings which have gone from 5000 to 900,000np almost overnight. I paid 200,000 for the space cracker things but at least that was a definite Fountain Faerie quest and mushroom Chia is 20mil. I'm not paying 900k for a grey faerie shot in the dark.
    I should have stopped being disappointed with TNT by now. They rarely manage to deliver a fraction of what they promise. The best parts of Charity Corner they said. And then have a 30 item limit meaning the event is over in five minutes a day. It's like they want to drive people off the darn site.
    ETA: Don't hold your breath for the missing faerie quest. They never gave me my triple max of AC games on the first day despite it being a glitch that their programming team caused. I could have had a thousand more points. But nope. It wouldn't be fair. Or there wouldn't be a fair way to do it. Despite providing screenshots.

    Also, fairer to newbies only makes sense if you can donate a ton of cheap items that newbies can get their hands on easily. A newbie would find it easier to donate 150 one point items than 10 15 point items. Hell, most of us would. I'm buying tombola guys from the Hidden Tower for it which completely destroys the purpose of recycling old items.
    They do seem to have removed r500 from the page. But the 10 item limit is still there.
    I have over a thousand Shiny Obsidians that I've been stocking. But with a ten item limit and them onnly being worth 1 point, it's not worth it at all
    The inflation is also because of the quest system. Only four faeries giving quests and a limited pool of requested items means that those item pools have inflated horrendously. 
    I missed Monday as it started late in the day and I'm eight hours ahead...

    So the points have changed again. Now r200's are no longer included - thank God I only bought two tombola guys. But r98-100 has been nerfed to 4 points? And r102's at 8 points? Guess my omelette hoard may come in handy after all. I am... absolutely baffled by the chaos they are creating with this.

    And the max has gone up to 30 points. Which shows they really aren't listening. That's still far too low - considering people have thousands of items stored. And is item based not points based.

    Having just checked, I have 1070 r102+ omelettes. If everything now stays the same, I have enough omelettes for 35 days of the festival. So I'm goooold.

    im having the same problem. I can't decide which pet to take to the FF. I'm zapping y grarrl buzz and would like him to be maraquan. I guess i could keep zapping him an try for that at the lap, if that's even available. I also have three other pets I want to paint but those brushes are expensive and if i take them to the lab and try for certain colors, MPs for those pets are expensive too. I'm stuck. I dont know what to do. And apparently the  FF doesn't do burlap and I didn't see a PB for that color, so i guess zapping is the only option for that color. but as i've said, the MPs are too expensive.

    It seems they removed it now, but originally the point spread listed r200-500 as worth 15 points. I agree that the NC items should be kept to a seperate system.
    The 'fairer to newbies' argument is, idk, like yeah maybe it's a little unfair but that's just part of being a new player, you're not going to be able to participate in stuff to the same extent that older players can. I've been there myself lol, and I just waited for the next event. Which I suppose only works if they do these events more regularly than they have been over the past few years!
    I really hope that if they're willing to remove the r500s from the general prize pool (assuming that they were meant to be included and that wasn't just a typo) that they lift the cap.

    The NC element should be in a completely seperate part. Like previous years. Otherwise it's pay NC to get NP which goes against the rules of the site itself!
    I have 75,000 items. If I collect dailies for the full 14 days that's another 500 items odd. I will be able to donate about 1/4 of the random junk I accumulate during the event itself. 
    There's the whole 'more fair to newbies' argument. But how? r200 are worth 15 points. Cheapest is a baby paint brush at 600,000. So 6,000,000np a day for 150 points. Or 150 Shiny Obsidians for more grind but what? 10np each? So 1500np a day. But you can't get 150 points through Obsidians if there's a 10 a day cap. 
    It screws everyone - the old players who spent hours over the last three years prepping. The new players who can't afford 15 point items to donate. And any player who can't afford NC. TNT have outdone themselves on the ridiculousness here.

    I do wish they'd go back to giving us a day and a half for the first day of any event. It hadn't started by the time I logged off work and so I missed the first day. They know people are in different time zones and they always used to account for that but haven't for the last two events. It wouldn't be so bad if they set the event to go live at midnight NST, but it's a pain in the rear when you have to wait for them to program it to start and if you're eight hours ahead you miss it.
    Rant over.
    First quest

    Which would be awesome as it's a 300np item. Except shop wizard is showing the cheapest at almost 500,000np. Why do people have to be like this. I'm refreshing the main shop page instead. I swear previous years weren't this bad.
     
    Has anybody else seen the Charity Corner side of things update? I can't find it on the main website, but it's all over the neoboards and Reddit. So ten items a day with the best points being for NC items. TNT have successfully destroyed Charity Corner AND turned it pay to play. I thought they were planning on listening to their user base this time?
    Edit to add: https://www.jellyneo.net/index.php has all the information.

    The pay to win aspect is ridiculous. I have a decent amount of NC junk in my bank luckily, but not enough for the entire event, and I'm sure not giving them any more money after the NQ fiasco, so I'll probably be out of luck for whatever the top prize is. On top of still having mountains of worthless junk in my SDB.
    Just disappointing really. Even for my usual expectations for TNT.

    It's because if you buy say 10 of a gram/cap, maybe 2 of them will have the bonus item - if you're lucky. When it stacks, you have to actively remove the top one from the inventory before you can check the next one. It's a pain in the rear. It's why we used to use the old inventory where nothing stacked - you could check each item individually.

    I have a mutant side and used FFQ's/Premium Perk to get the really expensive options a while back. I saved the cheaper ones to do at my own leisure as they were all 1.5mil-2mil potions. Looking at prices now, they have absolutely sky rocketed. Almost every potion has an inflation warning on it. So the last three in my original plan would now cost 21mil instead of a max of mil.
    I think Cyrenye is definitely going to be Maraquan. It does fit with both plays on the name, particularly siren.
    If I want the Shroom, I need more pet space. May have to wait til next month. Can't justify near £20 on virtual money for pet slots this month...
    I'm a bit of both. I see no point in using the FFQ for something within 3-5 million. I can easily spring for that myself. So Baby. Tyrannian and Faerie are all non runners. I don't pick colours by cost, but certainly aim to get the best deal if using a freebie! So Mara or Shroom are the best options.
    The Mara brush is definitely pricey and it does fit the pet name! I need to buy more pet slots on a side to have a new pet anyway, it seems!

    No I hadn't - that's brilliant!
    I do like the idea of having a mushroom chia. Which considering I always hated the Chia's is...unusual for me! I'll sit on the quest whilst I contemplate names.

    I'm sorry I'm a bit confused by your transmog option, but here's my opionion for your others:
    Before I read your Cybunny's name I thought maraquan or oil, and having read their name I think definitely maraquan.
    In terms of the Hissi, I too like the faerie (and likely easier to customise/more variety), although I am also a sucker for lost desert, especially this design.
    I also have to agree with Angelo though. I have been trying to work out which fruit/veg chia to get for years (no joke), now that there's a sroom option, well that's pretty difficult to pass up too! I suppose it depends on what matters more to you currently - the best value/savings or which pet speaks to you most even if it's not what you expected.
