    does anyone else have a suggestion?

    If you're seeing this:image.thumb.png.e00920eb35ae4b0446f280a5ef6052d1.png

    what you need to do is enable flash in your browser. It disables itself every time you restart your browser, unfortunately.聽Click here:

    and change 'Flash' to 'Allow', then reload the page. If that doesn't work, then you might want to contact support.

    finish? Hollow laugh.聽 Farthest I've got (once) is Gorignak V part two. Bart had 14852 pts and I had 11700 or so. But I can see the more I do it the farther I'm progressing so will keep trying.

    You got this!! And you'll never have to play it again once you win聽馃槈

    While the prize fund/share of 0 definitely indicates something's off, I appear to be able to buy lottery tickets just fine. What kind of error are you getting, @CoconutDragon?

    I'm getting聽Error:聽We could not add this lottery ticket into the database聽, but I think that's because I usually use pre-made links to buy them. It works if I plug them in normally.

    Now onto Feed Florg!! I'm debating whether to try for Assignment 53 or Volcano Run after that!!

    Congrats on the avatar!!

    I recently got A53 after a bit of practice and it was actually not too difficult! Although it's easy to say that now...I'll admit I used quite a bit of blue language while doing my run throughs聽馃槄聽I'd recommend a combo of the JellyNeo guide and bartdrunkey's video playthrough:聽https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njsK-yxQJM4

    The person you're following is clearly not with these six聽

    I got 30:10 from Garet

    Yep, when I first wanted to get into it, I tried Garet's (and others) bets but I couldn't figure them out, so I migrated to reddit and managed to figure it out there! Jelly's explanation for neocities is really good! Definitely follow that if you're following Garet or someone else off the boards. If anyone is interested in using reddit, I follow WiselyAltruistic and nsheng because they've got both great luck and really good explanations of their bets!

    Just filter posts by Food Club, and today's thread will come up at the top, or if you're on mobile, search the 'Food Club' tag.

    Every bettor will be posting their copy/pasted table from Neocities so you can decide based on the odds which one you want to follow. The simplest way to pick is to read their explanation - they'll usually say the odds to profit/win, odds to double or triple (or better!). If they don't, check out the table! It looks inscrutable at first but there are two main things to look for:

    Screenshot_20201008-1554592.png?width=29

    First, the "TER" is the Total Expected Returns. Don't take it as gospel, but it gives a good idea of how profitable a set will be if it wins. 10 would be breaking even, and anything higher than 10 will be a profit. The higher the better! If you're feeling daring, Neocities has a "Max TER" button, which will maximise your returns, but the odds of winning will be聽puny.聽

    Second, the Odds and聽Probability. Ignore the Cumulative and Tail columns when you're starting out! This is what tripped me up the first time haha. Your odds of completely busting and not making any money are listed under 0:10 and the probability for losing this set is 31.125%. Anything below 10:10 odds will lose NP, and anything above that line will win you money.聽

    As Wisely explains below, this particular set has a 53.2% chance to profit (i.e. above 10:10 odds), and therefore a 46.8% chance to lose money. If you win 20:10 you'll double your money, if they're 30:10 you'll triple, and so on. This set has a 4.2% chance to triple, but you might be hesitant about the high bust odds. These are all things to take into account when you're browsing the bets!聽

    Screenshot_20201008-1554472.png?width=29

    When you've found a set you like, just click the FC round number at the top of the table and it'll take you to this table's Neocities page, with all the bets inputted. Then, just like Jelly explained, put in your "max personal bet", "set all bets", and then click each "place this bet!" button individually.聽

    Sorry for the wall of text, but I'm eager to share my good fortune with everyone! I've played for 2.5 months and made over 3M profit with reddit bets, almost enough to support my expensive hobbies聽馃槄 Hope this helps!

    She got me to use the neofoodclub thingie, and patiently explained until my beleaguered brain understood what I needed to do, and so...

    *drum rolllll*

    First time I've managed to FC for a VERY long time! :D

    People in general love buying clothes and stuff for their pets, letting people have the option of creating new uc pets if they want wouldn鈥檛 have significantly lessened the amount of people who would spend money on nc, it would have made聽the whole black market uc ring nonexistent, and those hundreds and hundreds of players that left in droves because of the conversion probably would still be playing. Seems like a win win!

    I recall Snarkie commenting on the whole conversion issue, and that they regretted not straight-up converting every single species/colour rather than cherry picking. Pound chat would certainly be a lot less active these days...
