OOPS!!! Forgot to pay my FC winnings into the bank... ^o^;; NP: 180,203 down to NP: 135,132 Hopefully I'll not do that again unless it's intentional at the start of the month!

I thankfully didn't create a tank by managing to bet yesterday for the first time in weeks! Phew!

They're gonna eat ALL the other pet's food! xD Will Ray do something for Burfin... ..... *builds tension* ..... The ray is fired at Burfin... ... and she doesn't change at all WOW Ray, talk about ornery. xDDD Bah humbug? The ray produces a giant flash of light, but Fritz doesn't look any different. When it can't even climb the Multi-level Scratching Post you bought it, you realize that malfunctioning lab ray actually decreased its level to: 3

Seems to be my lucky day today!

EXCUSE ME WHILE I SHRIEK FOR A WHILE, BUT...

That's a good point, "the Neopian formerly known as..." or similar. xD YES! I really hoping that it how this is gonna end up!

It is! I've always felt that username changes are a thing that could be monetized and TNT would have jumped on the chance if it were possible; there's people out there who would absolutely pay cold hard cash to get rid of the cringey name their 13 year old self saddled 'em with. There'd need to be an NP option too; a fat 7-or-more figure sum to justify the NC option, act as a nice NP-sink, also to deter the less pleasant Neopian (scammer, troll etc.) from changing their name all the time so people didn't know who they were... Who knows what the future may hold though!

Burfin's feelin' energetic! The ray is fired at Burfin... ... and she gains 2 movement points!!!! Nothing looks different about Fritz but you can sense something happened. It becomes evident later when it tries to climb a tree but breaks off the branch instead. The ray has increased its level to: 5

Hahaha, I enjoyed today's! Maybe tomorrow's will be the moehog chef down the faerie employment agency as Hagan's fired him. But today's equipable item seems to be the plate on the floor?? x'D

Sounds like l'il Ray sulking to me! Maybe they feel you should have a proper mourning period for the pet they've just obliterated? You're clearly not showing proper appreciation for their skills by getting another one straight away. xD The ray is fired at Burfin... ... and she gains 4 maximum hit points!!!! Well this is better than yesterday's offering! Whoa... did it actually work? Sure looks like it. Your Petpet has been transformed. Imagine that.

Very happy to be of service to a fellow TDNer! Now I just need to remember about 'em on Friday.

Hmm, that's actual coded gender though, isn't it. I wonder if what they're meaning for your pets is basically the same as what's available for us, a dropdown option for displayed gender, but it won't alter the pet in any way. So an Elderlyboy pet, could have female or whatever other options pets get, on their pet page. Stuff like that. I read a thing on Reddit a couple of days ago... some guy who's a coder saying changing pet names is pretty much impossible. Oh gosh, can I even vaguely remember what he said... x'D Something like... pet ID stuff and everything that's tied into that goes by the pet's name, rather than a unique number and names being a supplementary thing, and when site's do that it's ... I need to try and find this again, I wonder what on earth it was I was looking for to find it in the first place! Nah, I can't find it, but basically to be able to change names the entire backend of the site's code would have to be re-written. EEK! Ah, this I remember. This guy basically saying Neo's code is skilled amateur level, that's the term he used, and Nickleodeon and Viacom just added to it rather than bringing the original stuff up to standard. So basically Neopets' bones are still Adam's two decades old student coding.

The ray is fired at Burfin... ... and she loses 3 strength points And there we have the festive zap! Whoa... did it actually work? Sure looks like it. Your Petpet has been transformed. Imagine that. You should come back tomorrow and try again!

The ray is fired at Burfin... ... and she gains 2 strength points!!!! Oooh! Petpet's gettin' edgier! Whoa... did it actually work? Sure looks like it. Your Petpet has been transformed. Imagine that.

The ray is fired at Burfin... ... and she doesn't change at all Holy cow! Is that a special Petpet? It surely is. You're quite the lucky one. Cute! >:3

Ooh, hello! STFP (profile) 60 70 +10 44,000 597,000 3,080,000 +415.91% A l'il holiday bonus, mebbe? >:3

The ray is fired at Burfin... ... and she loses 3 movement points!!!! Frankie shall now be known as Fritz. How nice.

Gone for Brutes too, it's the faction that's been picked by one of the guilds so hopefully it'll pay off. Then I'll get to see if I can remember to make use of the Full Pockets premium boon, I certainly didn't last time. X'D I'm using the same method that I do with books; save 'em up until the boon comes around to get the maximum benefit.

You're the one who's still got them, despite them repeatedly taking on pensioners.

Don't forget the chips in the vaccine! There's a whole lot of people with very strange ideas out there, isn't there... that's nothing new though, I saw a program about the 1918 flu pandemic, and the reactions and behaviour from people - from the government down - was much the same as it's been this time around. We've just got a really efficient way to spread misinformation now though. All we can do is try our best to not become a statistic ourselves. There's gonna be a whole lot of people across the planet who are more than happy to have a really good reason to avoid the regular get-together and the accompanying yearly family rows.

HA! Yes... but it they tell people not to, and people do it anyway, they're done their due diligence, haven't they. It's the peoples' fault if they choose to ignore what they've been told, not the government's for not enforcing the rule in the first place. I fully expect demands for a general election after this, gotta say, or for Boris to go join Teresa May on the back-benches at least, I mean what party would want to take on the Covid debt? Is Keir Starmer ready for that? So sadly true. This is why I fear the worst after Christmas, especially in families with students who have come home from Uni. xDDD That's such a generational thing! Learnt from his dad, no doubt? lol. Breeding out in you though? xD Does he have a smart meter? I thought of the typical turn-the-light-off-when-you-leave-the-room Scrooge mentality of some when those came out, aware that they're the worst kind of enablers for that. It does tend to be guys who succumb to it, too. Yeah! At least it's plateauing now, but jeez. D:< I think the simple thing here is - and this applies globally - if everyone had been taking care and following guidelines from the start, the world wouldn't be in the mess it is now. Those of us who have been doing so have kept things from being even worse than they currently are, there's a thing to think about! @_@ @iheartsaku you have a sensible country! Give it a pat on the head from someone hiding indoors in the UK. xD

I'm really hoping they do move those goalposts to be honest. It's insanity allowing people to mix to the level they've currently set. I saw someone on the news last night saying they were watching to see if figures spiked in the US after Thanksgiving to help with the decision and I was sat there like, "WHAT?!" because they have spiked already! They declined a bit for the few days after Thanksgiving; while people incubated the germs and maybe weren't getting tested over the holiday, then they shot through the roof; that's when the US surpassed 200k cases per day, and has continued to do so. This from today's New York Times. There's that spike you're waiting for... Someone else on the news was saying about trusting people to behave sensibly... really?! Where have you been for the past nine months, mister? 0_o Something else that was said, which was very telling; that in a normal year there's a spike in elderly people being hospitalised with pneumonia after Christmas, always... so family gatherings are like Russian Roulette for grandparents any year, but this... *shudders* Talking to the public on the news about it and they're all "but we've spent all this money on food now!" Which would you prefer? Wasted food or dead parents... tough choice? The stuff about opening the window to dispel the virus seems like dangerous nonsense to me, too. Who the... *coughs* heck is gonna do that? One window open for a few minutes, maybe... until there's an exclaimation of "sod this for a game of soldiers, I'm cold!". That's not gonna help, you'd basically need all windows and doors open to create proper air flow; while you all sit there, in your coats, and eat you stone-cold dinner... this'd be a farce if it wasn't so scary. T_T This Christmas bubble thing... I've not seen a single thing about how if you want to form one you'll need to isolate first... you're doing it @Secreis that simply because you realised you'd have to? Or has it been mentioned and I've just missed it? It's so important that it should be mentioned every time the Christmas bubbles are talked about. It's definitely not something to do the " it's commonsense, surely!" kind of thing about and not say anything. Not saying anything lets people think they don't have to then... their cries will be, "well no-one said anything about needing to isolate first!!" after their festive lunch for 15 turns into a super-spreader event that kills 50. If everyone could be tested and then isolate beforehand things would be 100% fine with this scenario, I feel; that'd be a logistical nightmare but it's the price people would have to pay, the one for not doing that could be far more costly... and I worry that the people who are selfishly insisting on a big get-together are the ones least likely to isolate first. I await the outcome of Christmas with horror to be honest. As you may have already guessed, I'll not be getting together with family myself. x'D We're gonna wait until the weather's nice enough to sit out in the garden again. EDIT *poker face*

As far as I know there's no limit other than just one item per layer?

Confusing indeed about the pounding of zappiness then! 0_o The ray is fired at Burfin... ... and she gains 2 maximum hit points!!!! Times New Roman shall now be known as Frankie. How nice.
