    emily_speck_15 got a reaction from micheee in Graduating University Soon... What now?   
    Most good companies will work with you a bit.  Do whatever you think is best for you, but know that you can ask to start like a month after you graduate to give yourself a break.  Looking for a job can be stressful and I wish you the best!

    emily_speck_15 reacted to Aquamentis12 in Hulking Wraith help on medium?   
    No problem!! For the Sword of Malum, that part of the plot I BELIEVE Is part 19, by going to the Forgotten Graveyard.
    This should help...I'm not 100% certain, it's been awhile. But the instructions on how to get there should be at this part of TDN's guide.
    http://www.thedailyneopets.com/wraith-resurgence/the-note-graveyard
    Both should be very useful against Hulking Wraith.
    I would replace Fire-Spitting Energy Shield with Blazing Embers, and Malums Sword should replace the Staff of Devilish Laughter. Blazing Embers and Malums Sword will be your two most powerful weapons.
    You should also get a Downsize! GRANTED, if you use the Throw Pillows strategy, you won't need it's defense, but Downsize! will block 50% of all damage for ONE round of battle, it's also once PER battle. Avoid Downsize Power Plus. It's expensive, it's retired, and it vanishes for good after ONLY 1 use. So, I would replace Corrosive Spear Wand with Downsize! and if/when you add a Healing item. I would replace the Fiendish Key with whatever Healer you get.
    You've got an abundance of Weapons in the set you show in th4e Screenshot you posted, but not a ton of defense items. Throw Pillows defense really isn't needed, but there may be battles in the future where you want to fight differently, normally. ;)
    Golden Compass is fairly weak in attack, but it blocks 3 icons of darkness. You may want to replace that one next, but for now, it's ok if you want.
    Best of luck!

    emily_speck_15 reacted to Mouseykins in my account has been frozen for multiple account abuse   
    You have already been told you won't be unfrozen, so any attempts to negotiate this decision may not provide any positive results.
    Neopets has certain rules. Using multiple accounts and abusing them is considered a form of cheating. Accounts that have been frozen for cheating reasons will not be returned.
    Here are the rules:
    You may not share accounts with ANYONE! Only you, the account owner is allowed to access your account. Side accounts cannot participate in ANY activities that gives out items or neopoints. Random Events are the only exception to this. Trudy can be turned off in your preferences page for side accounts. I strongly suggest you do this for future side accounts. Also a good idea is to set your side with a different theme then your main. That way you can easily tell which account you're logged into. By allowing your sister to access your account, you violated Neopets rules. Even if they were unknown to you. The only thing to really do right now is start over with a fresh account and maybe create one for your sister and keep her out of your account(s).

    emily_speck_15 reacted to BEE. in Yay to the future!   
    So, back in August 2017, I signed up with a distance learning university here in the UK called The Open University. You don't need qualifications to be able to enrol, which is good because I have none from school due to illness. (I did try and get them after leaving school, but because I'm still ill, it was difficult trying to get in class). I did get a Level 1 certificate for Animal Care back in 2011 though, so that's something! Anyway, I feel useless, not having any GCSEs or A Levels, and I want something to put on my CV for when I am eventually well enough to work, so I signed up with the OU on an Arts and Languages Access Module, which helps you get back into studying, and build confidence, etc. I decided to give it a go to see if I was capable of studying a Uni level.
    My first assignment was a reflective piece, which I thought was bad, but it turns out it wasn't! I scored 80%. I was completely shocked as I was expecting 55% (I had a dream I scored 8%...)
    My second was on poetry. I'm a writer, but I've never liked poetry as I'm more of a story teller, but I gave it my best shot and scored 69%. Small drop, but I was very happy with this result.
    Third assignment, I chose history (2 options to choose from) and it was on Chartism. I had to use extracts from a speech, and I was worried I had misunderstood the quotes I had chosen to use, because of the different language used back in 1839, but it seems I understood it better than I thought because I scored 82%!
    I'm now working on my final assignment, due at the end of May (managed to get well ahead!) and I'm excited, and also nervous for the end of this module. Last Wednesday started the process to enrol on to a degree, BA (Honours) Arts & Humanities, starting October 2018 and I am very, very excited! I just need to wait for Student Finance England to open for part time applications. Because I'll be studying part time, it'll take 6 years to finish the degree, meaning i'll graduate in my early 30s, but that doesn't matter. I'm planning on specialising in Creative Writing, but I won't start that until two years from now :(  (I know I'll have to do poetry again then, but I'll just do my best. Maybe I'll come to like it?)
    Sorry this was so long! I just wanted to share my excitement with everyone :)

    Wow!  You have some great items!  What I would suggest is buying a freezer, H4000 Helmet is going for 4.5 million right now, which would allow you a guaranteed freeze of your opponents.

    emily_speck_15 reacted to Aquamentis12 in Just some good ol' St. Patrick's Day fun!   
    Happy St. Patrick's Day! If you don't observe it, then Happy Day everyone! LOL
    I thought I would share this. 6 years ago, the St. Patrick's Day after my dad passed. I received a dvd made from the ONLY surviving recording of my Dad, his brothers and my Grandfather, performing in a church basement of a rural Irish community in WI, back in 1984. It took me about 12 hours to cut it up into clips, and upload it to youtube, including video processing time because I couldn't add a description before that was done.
    Anyway, the music selection is a mix of Irish, Folk and Western. Some things I'm sure were changed or tweaked a bit. That is the Nature of Folk music after all. Of the dozens of performances they did, this tape was the ONLY known to still exist. We don't know what happened to recording of other gigs at other places.
    Anyway, I hope anyone checking it out enjoys the music, the fun and Grandpa's "Terrible" jokes. ;)

    The Volume is pretty quiet, I didn't know how to amp the clips up when I cut up the video. So feel free to crank the volume on your device. There will be NO surprise increases of volume in any of the 25 vids! ~_^ Running time is about 90 or so minutes.

    Hello all you wonderful people
    I'm Miche and I am slowly making my return to both TDN forums and Neopets! It's been quite a few years since I have been on TDN but I have been on and off of Neopets in that time. I've been away because school has taken up most of my life but I will have completed by degree in April. With that said I am excited to have lots of time open in the near future to get my accounts more active and to chat and help out anyone in need! If you have any questions to get to know me a little more please ask away!
    Looking forward to seeing you all around the forums !

    Well, today's (9 Mar 2018) Neopian Times Editorial (Issue: 818, 9th day of Running, Y20) had this question and answer:
    ref: http://www.neopets.com/ntimes/index.phtml?section=editorial&issue=818
    So I guess @kayahtik's wish came true. I noted that Scrappy said "soon" three times. And I'm really hoping we will see movement on this plot, next week. However, I do get nervous when Scrappy say's "soon", as her definition of soon, doesn't match mine. I guess we will see.

    These days and days of total zero are just so BORING. 
    And they make me more and more convinced that there's currently no actual means for progression because they didn't take people not getting healed enough to actually leave the Infirmary into consideration.

    emily_speck_15 reacted to rntracy1 in Healing my pet   
    Are you visiting the healing springs every 30 mins to both heal your pet and buy a healing potion?  There are times when the faerie is good and will give you a full heal.  Also, make sure you are NOT keeping your battle pet in the lodge.  I feed mine just enough to keep it not hungry because when you really need it, feeding your pet adds HPs.  Also, blue furry neggs add HPs.  It says 5hp but because you are also feeding your pet, you increase by more than 5hps.  They are cheap but your pet has to be hungry.  Those are a couple ways I know of to heal your pet.

    I think you're giving them too much credit, but we'll see. xD
    They may have all been drinking themselves into a stupor over the long weekend because they don't have a clue how to get the patients out of the Infirmary, and right now are all hiding in their beds with massive hangovers, hence no update.

    Just saw this on the Neoboards and whet to the "Achievements" section, and noticed there is a "new" achievement for "Healing all affected site features". It is shown under the mortal and pestal, and wraith ectoplasm/wraith blood icon - the one for making all of Taelia's Concoctions. A little late to the party (meaning the new achievement, since we haven't had to clear Wraith Fog for a while, now), but I hope we don't have to clear Wraith Fog from any other/new places in Neopia. Mine is not currently "green", when I hover my mouse over it. Not sure what is going on. Still hoping this "plot" will end soon.

    emily_speck_15 reacted to Aquamentis12 in General Battledome Questions   
    @lojoco49 As for the prize data, the TDN staff spent quite a long time, many months, battling each 1p opponent to collect prize data. Oddly enough, after many months of fighting Tekkitu and Plumbeard, I never once got either of them to drop a Zed Codestone. lol I still have my notepad files from those days and the opponents I battled. Different arenas and different opponents usually seem to have some exclusive items. Anyway, if you wondered about where the prize data came from, that's the story. lol Short version of course. ;)
    @emily_speck_15 I like Jelly Chia, mainly because he drops some Jelly-related stamps and a book. Though the stamps aren't as valuable these days as they were when the prizes started dropping from the dome. ;)
    Your equipment looks good, though the shield and parasol would only be useful for certain opponents. As has already been mentioned/suggested, checking out the 1-player opponents profiles will show you their arsenal and you can change your defensive equipment as needed to fit whomever you're fighting. Keeping a few cheaper defensive items in your SDB to handle different elemental-icons is a policy I hold to and recommend for other battlers as well.
    As for Codestones. I HEAR the Koi Warrior gives a lot of those, which is why he's pretty popular with people.
    Neopia Central arena fights come with a LOT of food prizes, but sometimes you'll win a Chocolate Ice Cream, which is still a big seller. I still don't know why it's so much more popular, and sells for so much more than other ice cream cones. LOL
    If you're a Neopets premium member/subscriber, the Cosmic Dome offers Nerkmids as prizes too. Those are pretty popular to sell or use with the vending machine.
    For training, if you want your pet to have balanced stats, you should increase your defense to 85 so it's equal to your offensive boost. Though if you Zap your pet with the labray, based on what I've read about it in past years, defense is likely to be reduced a fair bit. Though Strength and HP, as I understand it, tend to go up. I still recommend a balanced training approach though. High HP is good for outlasting an opponent, but it doesn't strike my fancy, kinda seems like it'd be a bit boring to simply outlast your opponent. ;) Just my opinion on it. It's still a viable, legit way to go though. Anyway, your next strength boost is at 125. Here is the boost-list, just in case you're curious about the boosts and when you'll reach them.
    http://www.thedailyneopets.com/battledome/strength-defense-boosts/
    Movement, the only reason to train movement is for a couple of pieces of BD equipment. But most of them either aren't worth it, or in the case of the Heavy Robe of Thievery, glitched. Stealing is glitched/not working right now, but the movement requirement for the Heavy Robe of Thievery is only 201. I am not aware of any other piece of equipment that has a movement requirement higher than that. But I wouldn't actively train Movement. If you get a random air faerie quest, or some movement points from completing Kitchen Quests on Mystery Island, then that should add up fairly quickly. :)
    Hope this helps, and happy battling!
