Featherstar Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Heya-- I just knocked down a coconut at the shy! I'm so ultra-excited this isn't even funny. But I figured all caps would be annoying, as well as a long sting of exclamation marks, so I guess it doesn't really sound like I'm so hyped up. xDD Anyhow-- I was wondering how rare it is for someone to knock a coconut down. I've been trying for around 3-ish months. And for some funny reason, the game froze right when I knocked it down, when it had never frozen before. I freaked out at first, nearly shaking my computer, but then I checked my inventory and found I had an evil coconut there, and I got the avater. 8D Screenshots: (Two, just to show the freezing (see time in the lower corner of computer). I waited for a couple minutes before I took the first screenshot, and I waited around 10 minutes before refreshing and then closing the window to see if it would unfreeze. It didn't. :3) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Congrats! I've yet to win, but I'm very bad about trying regularly. Also everyone I've seen who's won, says theirs froze, and they panicked. (Which, I definitely would too.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAV of Gang Green Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Congrats. I've been at it for 2 years, with no avail. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kikolii Posted October 17, 2010 Share Posted October 17, 2010 Does anyone know if one shape of coconut is more likely to fall than another? For some reason I prefer the tall skinny ones =/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Does anyone know if one shape of coconut is more likely to fall than another? For some reason I prefer the tall skinny ones =/ I agree with you. It seems to me like the taller ones nearly fall over more often for me. Gah! Now I must go try to play. :laughingsmiley: Wow... I only missed once, and I actually MADE 400 NP from it. Though none fell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdcd Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 I seem to recall that it froze on me when I knocked the coconut down too. Must be what it does? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rinoa812 Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Sigh I wanna win T_T. Congrats though it gives me hope to hear that its actually winnable :laughingsmiley: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Score in Blue Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Sounds like it's winnable, but TNT just won't let you have it. Freezing just ruins it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Featherstar Posted October 18, 2010 Author Share Posted October 18, 2010 Oh, that's interesting. I didn't realize that it would freese-- the screenshots in TDN's Coconut Shy Theory page have images of the game after someone knocked the coconut down when it didn't freeze. And yes, I've always preferred the tall skinny ones since they seemed to wobble more often (and the physics of the coconut just make it seem like it would fall more easily). But the coconut I actually managed to knock down was a light-tan circular one. :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Sirius Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I don't get why, but Coconut Shy hasn't ever loaded for me in the past year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arliona Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 Congratulations! It also took me a really long time to knock down a coconut. The game froze for me too, I was so scared of a glitch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RayHumbert Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Congrats! This is the only evil, money grabbing game I play in the Haunted Woods. Been trying to knock one coconut down for awhile now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rae Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Wow congrats!! I've been trying for months and still have had no luck. I've heard rumors that certain ones are easier to knock down, but still nothing. Definitely rare! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohmyjohn Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 this happened to me today! i was doing my daily run of coconut shy and then the coconut fell and the rewards window didnt show up so i clicked it again and nothing happened so i immediately took a screenshot for proof and check my preferences and i saw the avvie so i calmed down and was REALLLY happy :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primogen Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 I have tried many times to knock a stupid coconut down with no luck. I usually just leave my cursor on the first a in again where it says "play again" and just blow my 20 tries. It seems to get me 300 nps most of the time. Congrats to all who have gotten it! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fableheart Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Hm. Primogen, Ima try your way. I've yet to get the avvie, and since it's random, I'm betting its gonna drive me bananas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primogen Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Cool, hope it works for you Behold...... Cuteness. I got that tip off the site Avatarlog which is now "On Extended Hiatus" a.k.a. deceased. :crying: That's how I found TDN, looking for another avatar checklist.

Another Avatar checklist site you could use is NeoAvs. Just pop it into google, and yeah. The interface is much simpler than TDN's, but it doesn't tell you which are retired.
