FutureTXTurkey Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 I was at the money tree and there were like a million scamanders there... So I click on one I got the screen you can see attached below. Does anyone know what this is about? Has it happened before, and is there any significance to it? I've never seen it, and I was thinking it could perhaps be there start of some site event, or maybe something to do with a plot? Updated: The were supposedly donated by the user: Scamander-In-Chief, but when I search for that user it doesn't exist... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superfly Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 This is quite odd. I've never heard of it before. I'm going to look into this and see what's up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoOlogy Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 I decided to try my luck at the Money Tree because of this and Scamanders do appear and that does happen. The funny thing is that when I was typing in "Scamanders" and saying it to myself as I was typing it, I realized it is "Scam Enders". My guess is that they are probably supposed to distract bots from taking everything off the Money Tree. I think the mystery is solved. (I also searched "Scamander" and it doesn't show up as anything in the main Neopets Search) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awesome_Paul Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 I've heard about this. The petpet are worth a few million each but they are impossible to catch. If you do catch it, you always get that screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cara Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 Well in my curious state I decided to head on over to the money tree to see if I could find any and sure enough there were loads of them, all donated by this Scamander-In-Chief person. Looking at the screen that comes up I cant help but think of the trick TNT played on users with the advent calendar one year where it said we were given a wand of super nova, only to have the pant devil come and steal it on the very same page. TNT can be so cruel at times. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strategos Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 The user's ID is actually Scamander_in_chief, as Neopets does not accept hyphens in usernames. He/she is a Neopets Monitor older than Adam, so it's a fake account for this purpose only. This is probably not indicative of a plot, as this has happened in the past, a few years ago.
