Sara Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 So. Today, I was trying to beat my old game high scores, and I came across Tyranu Evavu (Neopets' version of High card-low card). I looked up a guide for it and noticed that you could get an avatar from it. So I thought, "15 wins? Not bad...sure, why not." I played like, 30 games until I got 17 in a row. And low and behold...I already had the avatar. Silly me. Has anyone else had any "duh" moments like this recently on Neopets? ^_^ Me think Sara dummy-face. Quote
Guest shanemk Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 Not quite like that but I remember one time a couple weeks ago I decide to go see who is selling lutangos in my price group...so I'm like...I'm gonna buy all these lutango's from my competition and sell them for big profit. Well I buy out the competition from like a price range of 200-800 np then put all 36 freshly bought lutangos into my shop and sell them for 999. It wasnt until a few hours later it hit me---what was I thinking!? Nobody actually BUYS lutangos! So now i have 36 lutangos sitting in my SDB. What a waste. Quote

LOL xD Well, hey, you never know -- someone might want to buy a lutango for a gallery or a quest or something. Maybe you should try selling a few, just in case. :) Quote
Khepera Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 I made a go for the Snow Quest-avatar not too long ago, without realizing I already had it. Luckily, no damage done :P Quote
The Darkest Faerie Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 I've been finding more items than I needed on the FEA, and ended up wasting NP. :( Quote
Bree* Posted January 10, 2009 Posted January 10, 2009 I had a horribly DUH moment. On one of my old accounts, I kept on adding things to my SDB for like 3 months before realizing that I already had enough items. Oh and I watched an auction for a lab map piece that i already owned. I lost like 20k on that one... Quote
Sara Posted January 11, 2009 Author Posted January 11, 2009 One of our own mods had a "duh" moment today as well ;) Crusher says: HOLY CRAP Crusher says: I JUST ACCIDENTLY SOLD MY SECRET LAP MAP PIECE FOR 3.5k Crusher says: I meant to list it as 35k >.> Crusher says: My bad xD Crusher says: Lucky sniper :P Crusher says: *fail* Quote
jun Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 Well, All the tie really I have been after the Deserted Tomb avatar, and I didnt know, but i have had it for quite some time too! Quote
Ali Cat Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 I did the same thing with the Winter Scratchcard Kiosk for a long time xD Almost never do I win, so it took me a long time to figure out I already had it. Quote
Sara Posted January 11, 2009 Author Posted January 11, 2009 Lol <3 Just goes to show that we should all be checking our avatar lists before we decide to go for one. xD Quote
Ali Cat Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 Lol <3 Just goes to show that we should all be checking our avatar lists before we decide to go for one. xD That's a bit harder for some of us xD I rely on websites that you can quickly search through so can I avoid these situations. 284 avatars = not fun to look through manually XDD Quote

"Me think Sara dummy-face." I've been that stupid with the Wheel of Mediocrity avatar. I have been keeping on playing and forgot I already had it. At least, I think that's wat happened... I just wish my birthday would hurry up! I had two du'ahs, Once I bought a grey evil fuzzle thinknig that I will get the avvy for it but I was wrong and the second time was when i bought a (forgot colour) koi but noticed that i needed (forgot colour) plushie to get the spotted koi plushie. du'AH. I nearly bought a Pink Evil Fuzzle instead of the Blue one. At least I noticed... otherwise I would have kicked myself. Hard. And then I'd be limping. As for the second duh moment, I haven't even tried for that yet. I must get round to it... Quote
Shane for Wax Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 I don't think I've had duh moments like that when it comes to avatars. Well...with the Adam avatar I did. I thought I needed more so I took out all my np. Forgot that it needed to be that exact amount lol. Quote

Stephé Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 I priced a TCG card in my shop for 4250nps when I meant to sell it for 42500nps. Its in the person who bought it's shop right now =_=" But at least there's food club XD Quote
Sara Posted January 15, 2009 Author Posted January 15, 2009 my biggest doh was getting the lent orange grundo zapped into a baby grundo by a random event! Oh my gosh, that must have sucked. How unlucky! :( I priced a TCG card in my shop for 4250nps when I meant to sell it for 42500nps. Ouch. Snipers are evil, aren't they? >_<; (unless you're the one sniping, of course! XD) Quote
The Apple of His Eye Posted January 15, 2009 Posted January 15, 2009 I always think I've had those moments. I swear I've checked to see if I got the Snowager avatar at least twelve times. Probably because I'm so frustrated that I get blasted daily and still no sign of the avatar. I do it with concerts too. I saw the Jazzmosis concert and got the avatar. Then I saw it again and had a short freak-out moment wondering "WHERE'S MY AVATAR!?" when I had already gotten it a month ago. : ) Quote
