Nielo

I joined Team Terror Mountain (as I do each year ), but I have to admit that if the issues with the games persist, there's a good chance I won't be playing much this year. I often find it hard enough to stay motivated to play a lot during the AC anyway, and that's when the games are running (as) smoothly (as possible)... (So my apologies in advance to any fellow TM'ers here. XD) @Neopets9738368 In case you're still looking for a way to sign up, JellyNeo has a list with direct links for those who are having trouble signing up on mobile.

Huh, I remember typing it, but I must've accidentally deleted it somehow (I vaguely recall a ctrl + z action that didn't appear to do much, but I guess it did). XD Anyway, thanks for letting me know, I've updated the post. @jellysundae: Love the lab ray stamp custom!

@jellysundae Consider it added to the list.

No problem, thanks for sending it so quickly! (I think you and I are in the same time zone, so I didn't know if you'd still be awake/online. XD) I was going to post the round right after I received your entry... and then there was a power cut in my neighbourhood, so I didn't have wifi. It's back on now, and since I'm still awake, I might as well finish/post it now. (Thankfully tomorrow's a national holiday over here, so I can sleep in. )

@aleu1986 Oops, sorry! I really need to clean my inbox out more often. Should work now, but I'll make sure to wait with posting until I've received your entry, so there's a chance I won't post this round until Tuesday.

True, should've realised. This one seemed so simple though, that I did take it on face value. XD Lol, yeah, I briefly checked there to see if I'd missed anything with it being the last Negg/Dr. Neggistential, only to see a looooot of posts about a potential plot.

I was confused about this being the last Negg as well, and a little worried since I didn't have the stamp yet. In a lucky twist that I hadn't expected, I actually did get the stamp today. Kinda curious why we were told to hurry back because "Dr. Neggistential had something he needed to discuss right away", only for him to be... elsewhere when returning to Kari. XD

... Just this once, everybody wins! Congrats! (And thanks for the votes; I hadn't expected to win, so this is a little awkward. ) For the information on next round's theme, click here.

Makes sense, I think this was one of the more challenging themes we've done. (It was on the list I inherited from Deb and I'd been putting it off because I wasn't sure if it wasn't too abstract of a theme, and also because I kept forgetting to pick this theme at least somewhere in the vicinity of April 1st. XD)

That makes sense. Maybe by posting here it's moved up a little on your brain's priority list already.

Definitely good to see you pop in here. But don't rush yourself; it's completely understandable that The Runway is not on your brain's list of priorities at the moment (or at all ).

Great gift, definitely worthy to take a selfie with.

Completely understandable; especially considering your job! (Btw, love your new(?) profile pic! )

Lol, definitely. I honestly didn't pay much attention to avatars for many, many years, so I don't remember getting most of the ones I got from dailies (including the Tomb one). But now that I do want to collect the ones available to me (to a degree; I'm never going to put enough time into getting good enough at the games to get most of those avvies), I would like the Lever of Doom one, if only so I'd have something to show for all the times I clicked that stupid button and donated another 100 NeoPoints to that lever. XD

While I didnt actually receive any additional entries since last week (I'm guessing this theme was a bit abstract), I decided to let the round go ahead anyway. I did end up creating an entry myself*, so we'd at least have 4 entries to choose from. *** Important note: Voting for yourself is NOT allowed. Doing so will result in disqualification.

It may not happen super often, but you can definitely still get stuff from this daily. (But yes, it's a very real possibility that getting the avatar could take years. I don't know how many thousands of NeoPoints I've sunk into the Lever of Doom over the years, but I still don't have the avatar. )
