The Order!

Something to consider: The Order is the only of the three with the Refreshed Faerie Quests boon, so those choosing them would be able to use that for the last four days of the Faerie Quest event if they win.

Does anyone know what kind of time it's officially going to become Day 2 then? Is it likely to be once NST flips to tomorrow?

Yes, after the prolonged Day 1, each day will be a 24-hour day, starting at midnight NST.

Has the score review issue been resolved, or are people still having excessive score reviews on games like Kass Basher? (It is at least not lagging... for now.)

I got my neomail just now, which means they're just about done. (Puts them into the "U" usernames.)

I haven't had any trouble with nps yet but i did just change my active pet so they could all have a chance at catching something and i would seriously reconsider changing them because it just took me about 10 minutes of refreshing etc to get my normal active pet back to being active. It just kept changing pet every time i refreshed

Same here, with the active pet thing - I switched while doing my dailies, and now it seems to be cycling randomly between all three of my pets. It's quite annoying.

Is anyone else having their NP total lag behind for a few page loads after playing games? Example: After playing Kookia three times, my total NP (at the top of the screen) jumped to 50000, but went back down to 49000 when I went to my inventory. After clicking to my SDB, though, it properly displayed 50000 again. Possibly lag related? It sort of freaked me out.

I figure that this event will, over time, fail to restore value to the high rarity items that are given out like candy from dailies (especially from BD drops), because they're going to be quickly replaced. More people might be inclined to hoard their prizes in anticipation of more of these events, but the prices are still going to drop in relatively short order.

However, an event like this actually might help to restore value to high rarity items that deflated due to being part of an event prize pool (like the things given out during the Spooky Food Contest, etc.) or being given out as a daily trivia prize. High rarity toys and plushies are really only good for collecting or quests, so I imagine the event pool prizes will eventually settle right back around their pre-event value, unless there's a big retirement coming up. It would be interesting to see how an event like this would effect the long-term prices on consumables or BD prizes that deflated due to an event.

The snowwager is (on my account at least) still in hibernation, and I still get a piece of treasure. I just assumed it would go away eventually, but it hasn't. Does anyone else have this 'problem'?

I think this is happening for everyone, and it definitely should have ended on the first. (The trivia question that day was even about The Snowager coming out of hibernation!) It seems like several things that should have happened automatically while TNT was on break failed: The Snowager waking up, the Charity Corner event ending on time, game ratios changing...

delicious waffles - are you getting little ticks or crosses under the items that you're putting in? Sometimes i have to wait a min before a tick/cross comes up and then i fill out the other boxes (waiting after each) and then the donate button become clickable. Hope that helps?

It still isn't working (I'm not seeing any ticks), but thanks for the reply. At least now I know what to look for! Hopefully, I'm just having bad luck because of the lag.

I have all the correct items selected for the adoption task, but the Donate button doesn't let me click it. I keep moving the items around, and putting them back in the order from the clue, etc. It just won't work. So frustrating. (Edit: The toy donation task is working fine for me, so I don't think it's just a browser issue.)

I couldn't afford to do any of the NC challenges, however I did complete all of AAA's challenges on the day of release. I got AAA Meatloaf and AAA Handheld Plushie - to have received better prizes did I need to have done something else? Or are the better prizes purely for those who did the NC half?

(Not trying to sound ungrateful, I'm just curious!)

You played both games every day, right? Sorry if this is a stupid question. I ask because the prizes you got would be at the level of people who completed 5-9 challenges, and someone who played one of the two games each day would have completed 7 challenges. I could see how someone might have gotten the impression that the games under Lulu's picture were for her challenge. But yes, definitely send in a ticket if you played all 14 games. Even if you missed a release day, you should have received 4 prizes.

It says that my faerie quest fortune cookie ends in 8 days. On Thursday, it said that my fortune cookie ended in 9 days. I wonder if this is a glitch..

This is not a glitch, but a new feature added during the birthday celebration. From the news: "Open the Faerie Quest, Game, Lab Ray, Training, Upcycle or NC archives Fortune Cookies and receive better chances at ... well, good stuff. ;) For example, Faerie Quest Fortune Cookies now allow you to get one bonus Faerie Quest a day for 9 days instead of 7."

Is anyone else starting to lose hope that Neopets will return back to the way it was? :( Keyquest hasn't been on for like a month?

It feels like it's taking forever, but TNT does seem to get at least something visible fixed every (business) day or so, and we don't know how much of the back-end is being repaired. Plus, it seems there are some staff turnovers (like snarkie leaving), and the act of physically moving has probably also caused some delay. Then there was the duping glitch that popped up and had to be dealt with, so that probably pushed basic repairs back. It's frustrating, but I haven't lost faith that TNT is at least trying. (I've long lost hope in ever seeing a real plot, but... not really transition related.)

One thing I've noticed is that TNT has been personally responding to people on facebook in the past few days, which I don't recall seeing much in the past. I'm hoping that this means more people will see their accounts returned, and perhaps that they're getting closer to being able to turn attention towards the more minor glitches.

Neopets will be celebrating their fifteenth birthday on November 15; I'm really hoping they'll have their issues sorted out by then so we can all enjoy the celebration.

In regards to the Scores Galore...I can only send the usual 3x NOT 5x as it indicates. Feh, I am disappointed with Neopets and their conversion! :grrr:

Scores Galore ended on the 12th, so no one can send 5x anymore. (If you're still seeing the Scores Galore banner or countdown clock, though, then that is strange.)

Is there an updated list somewhere of all the known glitches/bugs? It's difficult to keep track of what's fixed and what isn't. :(

I've been wondering this, too. The only problems I'm personally still encountering are the BD error that forces me to send my moves twice and occasional lag/down time (that may or may not be transition related).

Is anyone else having issues with the wheels? I get a block that says "an error has occured, try again later" and when I refresh to try again, it says I have already spun :(

This happens to me occasionally, even before the transition. The spin still happens when it does, so check your NP total/inventory for results. (Sometimes, it will take a minute or 2 to show up.) If it seems nothing happened on, say, The Wheel of Mediocrity, that means you hit the 100 NP space, etc.

Game ratios change on the 25th of every month, and that happened as usual on September 25, so there's nothing strange about what happened with Kass Basher. However, I'm not sure what happened with Splat-a-Sloth, as the ratio changed to "?=1 NP" and it awards no points.

I seem to be able to send scores again in the games I was getting the "Challenge posted..." error on, and I haven't changed anything on my end. Is it fixed for others?

For me, as long as I stop short of sending five scores, I can play each game four times each day. Any that I sent five times on the day that Scores Galore began, I'm locked out of, getting the "Challenge posted..." error message. I'm also unable to send scores for the games I played five times on subsequent days to see if the glitch was still happening. I suspect that the glitch was never addressed, but that upping the number of scores we were allowed from three to five per day "fixed" that it was stuck on the last day we sent three scores. (I really don't know how to explain myself well...)

Working five times per day (that I've found): Clockwork Codebreaker, Fashion Fever, Catch the Petpet, Petpet Pair-Up, Hot Dog Hero, Darigan Dodgeball, and Tunnel Tumble. I suspect there may be other games that weren't part of previous game challenges that will work five times.

Has anyone had success getting their games unstuck by changing their browser, clearing the cache, etc.? I'm reluctant to try, because I fear logging out and having log-in problems.

I've been having an intermittent problem with sending scores for Escape to Kreludor. Since the transition, I've been getting the following message when I submit a score:

 

"Challenge posted, however, max scores already posted for today."

 

The issue is that I have not posted any scores - this is my first game today - and I haven't been involved in any challenges.

 

Unable to open a ticket. The weird thinng is that yesterday it let me post 5 scores with no problem and now it's back to the above message today.

 

Does anyone know if this is a known problem and/or is it happening with other games as well? This is the only game I've had the problem with.

 

Thanks in advance for any comments.

As far as I know, this is happening to everyone for most games. Many people have reported that Fashion Fever and Catch the Petpet seem to be unaffected, and I've personally been able to play Hot Dog Hero, Darigan Dodgeball, Clockwork Codebreaker, and Tunnel Tumble two days in a row. I really wish TNT would have fixed this before starting this fall's Scores Galore - knowing that I couldn't send game scores was tolerable before, but it's really bugging me that I'm missing out on all those extra plays.

The good news is scores are sending for all the games for me now (and 5 times!). The bad news is that I'm still getting the "Challenge posted..." error for any games that I sent scores for yesterday. So, hopefully TNT gets that fixed today and makes Scores Galore fun.

This is one of those times that I wish TNT would just post a list of known issues, crossing them out as they believe they're fixed, with a request to submit issues not listed or that you're still experiencing. (It would also allow them to point out some things that people might think are issues, but are common or unrelated things on the site.) It would help people understand that they're working on the problems, and possibly reduce the number of tickets to wade through.

the site has been acting up for me for the last hour. I can't battle (gives error), price my shop, use SW or post on neoboards. I just get a this page is not available message and my internet connection is fine. I cleared my history and cookies, managed to log in again but I still have this issue. Can anyone help?

I can't help, but can confirm that I'm having the same issues trying to battle. I also was unable to do some other dailies without getting an error.

They refer to this as taking place over what was planned to be "a fortnight of relaxing diplomacy," and it looks like the Hieroglyphic Dictionary will be on sale until the 24th, so I'm assuming this will be a roughly two-week event.

can those who were already logged in before the issue browse the site okay?

I was logged in before the problem started, and it seems to be working fine for me.
