My family isn't really into Christmas, but a week before, my husband and I treated ourselves to a Wii and quite a few games.
 
From my in-laws, I got a gorgeous rock pendant necklace, with beaded chain that they made. From my sister-in-law, I got a little cast iron skillet with chocolate chip cookie mix.
 
Here on TDN, I got so many amazing gifts from everyone. :D

Naked 3 palette. Nothing else matters, really.
 
 
Just kidding. Got some clothes and Despicable Me 2!

I had a good Christmas! Not as much as previous years but as my brother and I are grown now (I'm 21, he's 18) that's to be expected. I got a total of $300, some nice new stud earrings, a sewing machine, Pokemon X, LoZ: Link Between Worlds, a new scarf, gloves, and winter hat, a nice bath set from my Aunt, and I've got a Homestuck baffler coming in the mail (What Pumpkin is kinda backs up atm). Oh and a small pile of chocolate. And I'm headed to a gift exchange with friends this evening so I'll get some more stuff.

Some great books that I wanted copies of (apparently borrowing the same book from the library multiple times is weird...), a couple really cool glassware pieces (Daryl Dixon beer glass! and this lovely mug from Scandinavia and the World) and a beautiful Charmed series DVD set. And lots and lots of chocolate xD

* Ipad Air from my mom
* Ipad Smart Cover from my sister (to be bought still)
* Angry Bird mousepad from my cousin (it's cute)
* 2 books from my grandmother. One is about self medication and the other is about cooking with vinagar.
* Going to see my dad on saturday, so I guess that's when I get his present too. Usually money.

Since Christmas has gone and past for 2013, it'd be great to what everyone here at TDNForums got for Christmas this year from their family and friends (and Santa).
 
Well, here's the gifts I got for Christmas this year:
 
Axe Phoenix Bodyspray (3-pack with identically-scented antiperspirant deodorant)
Everready Flashlights (2-pack with one small and one large flashlight)
$15 Gamestop Giftcard and $20 in cash
Nintendo 3DS (Midnight Purple)
Nintendo 3DS XL (Silver Mario & Luigi Edition with Mario & Luigi Dream Team pre-installed as a bonus)
Pokémon X and Pokémon Y (both versions)
 
How about you? What did you guys get for the holiday season?

A brand new Winter-themed MME has been released! This gorgeous gown is the first stage, how beautiful will the future stages look?


MME17-S1: Winters Eve Ball Gown
(550 NC)

Hello there, tdn.
We haven't seen us in a long time-span.
I might be returning for real this time.
Although i might not be playing Neopets anymore.
 
 
- Omega.
 
 

Definitely buying. I have a dress weakness xD

I love the new color! It's very pretty. I've always loved pastel colors and the combos they've used on these are very nice. I can't wait to see more. :D

Christmas Lutari  

Pastel has bee released as a new pet colour! Currently, there are 4 species that can be painted with the new Pastel Paint Brush. Look out for more species to be added soon!
 


Pastel is available from the Rainbow Fountain with use of a Fountain Faerie Quest. If you obtain this new colour through the lab ray, please let us know.

We have a preview of an all new Mysterious Morphing Experiment that will be entering the mall soon.

This gown is sure to bring us some dazzling stages. Stay tuned to TDN for more information on the upcoming release of this MME.

Hello all!
 
We've been running into a bit of an odd issue with our pet lends of late. We've occasionally had pets returned to us with increased stats, something that we would much prefer to not happen in order to keep transfer costs down.
 
As such, we would like to request that everyone refrain from training ALP pets in any way (from actual courses to faerie quests). We understand that occasionally stat boost REs happen, but please keep the pet out of the line of fire by have one of your own pets active unless strictly necessary to obtain an avatar.
 
Keeping your own pets active also goes a long way to preventing rare color or species changing REs from hitting ALP pets, so really doing so is an all-around good thing!
 
Thank you!

TNT has been sending out a survey regarding the NC Mall. Not everyone got it, but it basically asked questions about what types of items you usually buy, additions you'd be interested in and what changes you would like to see so you become a more frequent shopper.
 
Of course, I've already submitted my survey, but I have more to say!!! So what do you think...
 
What types of items do you usually buy?
What additions would you be interested in?
Additions you liked this year?
What changes would you like to see?
 
Please keep it constructive. If you never plan on using the NC Mall than this topic may not be for you.
 
----
 
What types of items do you usually buy?
I find myself usually buying seasonal prizes or game tickets now-a-days. I used to buy caps but feel like the chance of getting the LE is still way too low, despite them upping the probability, and so it's just a waste of money. I also just wait until the daily items are on sale at the end of the year (if I'm even interested in them)
 
My favourite, and biggest purchases, are seasonal items and events (like Neggstravaganza and Halloween) or from games. I think you get the most bang for your buck there. They usually offer a nice variety of items and styles.
 
What additions would you be interested in?
The survey mentioned NC only map areas, and the only way I'd support this if it was Lutari Island. But I do wish there would be some sort of way for users to win neocash, or boxes, or SOMETHING. Getting a 50nc item from the money tree is cool and all, but not that exciting. It's not going to make people who don't get neocash that often go out and buy neocash for the first time.
 
I think frequent Mall users should be rewarded somehow. The gift of NC is too small and only once a year. Future Fashions isn't really a 'reward' either. There should be some sort of wheel or something that allows users to have a chance at free NC or gift boxes or SOMETHING to keep them spending, but also offer something they want/use. No one wants 40 hair bows. If you spend 500 nc in a month, you get a spin (or whatever). Keep the amount needed to spin reasonable.
 
Additions you liked this year?
Adding the Archives wheel, flashback passes and colour specific wearables was a giant step in the right direction. Keep inflation down. Keep colour specific owners happy. TWO FOR YOU!
 
What changes would you like to see?
- Even greater chance of getting LE items.
- LESS chance of getting doubles from games (I spent a 5 pack and got 3 of the same item in a row. These low tier items are given out the most and very difficult to swap/trade. Plus, who wants to eat a gift box for something that has little to no value due to its supply? No one.)
- Lower ticket prices for games/events. I want a deal, especially if I have to buy more than one ticket pack for the same event (lookin' at you GMC/ AC!) Additionally, I would be more willing to buy two 10 ticket packs for games if there was a greater deal. I'm a frugal kau.
- Upcycle cookie is way, WAY too expensive and the prizes need to be changed on a frequent basis.
- Lower GBC prices. I get it's a cash cow but COME ON!!!!! It's our only chance at being able to move items. Why gouge us.
- Boxless item transfer between side accounts.
- Boxes for buying neocash online
- MORE MALE CLOTHES. FOR THE LOVE OF FYORA. MORE MALE CLOTHES.
- If you add a skirt to a set, put a matching shirt/top with it. Somewhere. Somehow.
- MORE sales. I wanna go buckwild and indulge. LET US DO IT! Even if it's a flash sale from 12 am - 12pm.

So I heard people talking about making their pcs run slower so they could get the Snowroller avvie more easily - and then I had an idea.
I remembered when I was a kid playing Neopets (on a terrible, terrible computer) and back then I was the master of Freaky Factory! But that was before the avvie was released...
 
So I tried it today: opened several games at once, plus KeyQuest, plus a 4-hour long youtube video that I set to max quality. And ta-daaa! Freaky Factory was slower than ever and I managed to get the score for the avvie! (after 5 tries, but still... :P )
 

Today I got the Snowroller and the Grundo - Snowthrow avatars as well as finally getting some of the ones that requires a lot of refreshing (finally :D )
 

 
And thanks to Spritizie I got the Let it Snow avatar, too, which is one of my favorite winter avatars ^o^
