Strawberri Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I've been visiting the Turmaculus for what seems like years, but my petpet never gets eaten (so I can get the avatar!). I use this guide to get an idea of when he might be awake: http://www.neopets.com/~picovamde But still he only ever wakes up to give me a gift, or does nothing. I heard that if you hit him, you're more likely to get your pet eaten. Is that true? Has your petpet been eaten? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephie23 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 My petpet was eaten on the first time i visited him. I dont really remember what I chose. I dunno if that even matters, or its like symol hole where it doesnt matter what you pick. I was so upset, I loved that little petpet :( ... but I got the avie, so I guess I was compensated.. *sniffle* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Ryan Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I've been trying for a long time to no success as well. I can't confirm the hitting rumor, but I can say that you should keep trying anytime you can and hope that someday you get lucky. Good luck. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masaryk Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I'm still waiting on this one too, so I don't have any real advice for you. However, the Turmaculus times petpage suggests that many people get the avatar with an Abominable Snowball (likely because it's cheap) and by dumping cold water on Turmy. I guess that might lend some amount of credibility to the "being mean/violent when waking Turmy increases your chances of getting the avatar" theory. Then again, maybe it's coincidence.

stephie23 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I dont know that thats true.. I dont think the petpet matters at all .. i had a cheerlub (spelling? :P hes a fish..) .. and i think i might have sang to him ... i really think its just plain random! :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tre Le Coco Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I've been trying since that avatar came out and still haven't gotten it! lol One day it shall be mine >.> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apollo Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 The party line is that it's 100% random as to what action results in what consequence. I have also been trying to get this avatar for far too long. I bought a really cheap Petpet for my secondary Neopet, and I'm currently wondering if that may be holding me back... maybe the more expensive the pet, the more likely it is to be eaten? - Apollo ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephé Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I got the avatar with a newly attached Tencals (around 400np?) In my opinion, I think it is totally random. I don't know how long I've been trying for this avatar, but TDN's Turmaculus topic has really helped me whenever someone bumps it. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fashiongirl25 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Ha! I've tried a million times and only ever got one thing: a level up. :( I think it is random, but I don't have any more patience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krawk Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Do something "bad" to it when it's the hour for it to wake up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deepti M. Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Sadly, Turmy hasn't ate my petpet yet, but I've been using my Floud, and the Dump Cold Water on him method Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stephie23 Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Thanks, I didnt realize it was such a hard avatar to get... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deepti M. Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 I suppose it depends with everybody, as it's a completely random avatar to my understanding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
