behemothrules Posted December 3, 2011 Posted December 3, 2011 I was just wondering, when you are trying to get the lever of doom avatar, if you have all your neopoints in the bank so the lever can't steal from you can you still get the avatar this way? Or do you have to let the lever steal from you every time? Quote
Angeló Posted December 3, 2011 Posted December 3, 2011 even if you have 0 NP on hand , the lever will steal 100 and you will end up with -100 NP Quote
behemothrules Posted December 3, 2011 Author Posted December 3, 2011 Well right now, I have 60 neopoints on hand, and every time I pull the lever it says "How odd. Nothing happens when you pull the lever." and I don't lose any neopoints. Quote
Angeló Posted December 3, 2011 Posted December 3, 2011 yes , if you have less than 100 nothing happens and you can't get the avatar but trying to "trick" the system by having 0 NP won't work , according to Neopets logic .. you can divide by zero :worried: <_< I stand corrected .. apparently you DO need to have at least 100NP on hand in order for the lever to work .. when it says "nothing happens" then nothing happens .. but you CAN have -ve Np ..

behemothrules Posted December 3, 2011 Author Posted December 3, 2011 Oh okay thanks alot, i would have felt pretty dumb if i spent hours pulling the lever like that thinking I was super tricky :sad01_anim: Quote
Saxen Posted December 3, 2011 Posted December 3, 2011 Btw -- If you're going for the avatar I'd recommend getting about 100k on hand and clicking away until you get it. That's how I've gotten it both times :) First time was something like 30K spent, second time more like 90K. It really depends on how lucky you get though, as I understand it some people have spent hundreds of thousands D:. Doing it all in one go is how I've heard of most people getting it though ^^ Good luck! Quote
leedom111 Posted December 3, 2011 Posted December 3, 2011 Ugh. I really want the avatar, but that's a lot to spend... I just go pull it a few times when I remember. No luck so far :/ Quote
Alice ☮ Posted December 3, 2011 Posted December 3, 2011 I've all but given up on that avatar. When I'm a rich billionaire neopian *cough*like that's ever going to happen*cough*, then I'll take out a few hundred thousand and try for it in one go. But for now, I'd rather spend my NPs training my BD pet :) Quote
bluewisp16 Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 Good luck! I didn't think that avatar was all that hard to get. I must have gotten lucky. I spent 10k a day on it and on my third day I got it. I didn't realize at the time it was hard to get. I hope you get it and will try and sprinkle some of my luck on you. :yes: Quote
woodnymph Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 I've been doing it 10 times a day without fail for about 5 months, thats about 150k and still no avvie, but i might try doing it in one go. see if i can get lucky EDIT OMG it worked and cost me just over 10k Something Has Happened! You are now eligible to use 'Lever of Doom' as an avatar on the NeoBoards! Quote
rhino_loupe Posted December 5, 2011 Posted December 5, 2011 Congrats woodnymph! I would try too but... the wheel of extravagance is sapping all my NPs :sad01_anim: One expensive avatar at a time! Quote
youngrace Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 I've been doing it 10 times a day without fail for about 5 months, thats about 150k and still no avvie, but i might try doing it in one go. see if i can get lucky EDIT OMG it worked and cost me just over 10k Something Has Happened! You are now eligible to use 'Lever of Doom' as an avatar on the NeoBoards! ♥ yay! *throws confetti* the lever only cost me 3.5k, i think i lucked out Quote
J Dawg Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 I think it took over 15K before I got the avatar. Quote
sakura_blossom221 Posted December 9, 2011 Posted December 9, 2011 I think i only spent about 6k on it before I got it. It really just depends on how lucky, or unlucky, you are. Quote
bataclops Posted December 10, 2011 Posted December 10, 2011 I just got a couple weeks ago. I would pull it 10x a day when I did my dailies that way it wouldn't seem like that many neopoints all at once. Took me over two months to get it though so it probably makes more sense just to do it all in one go and get it over with :) Quote
Angeló Posted December 10, 2011 Posted December 10, 2011 I used to spend 20k daily for God knows how long .... I think I spent more than 500k over all on it .... Quote
sftangliz Posted December 10, 2011 Posted December 10, 2011 I got it after pulling that silly lever for hours, three days in a row. How much I spent? I don't know but a lot! I don't have the magic touch on the random avatars. Now I am working on another hateful one, Edna!!!! Quote

I've done tons of her quests with no such luck! Quote
eddie Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 Urgh, this seems like a pain... I'm gunna wait a week for my interest to generate 100k and then I'll use that so I won't waste that much money :P Quote
Nicole C Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 thats a super hard avatar to get:( I've been trying for a long time but didnt manage to get it, but I've had a friend who got it on her first shot!!! total random good luck! I'm trying it now and looking at my hard-earned np flying away from me:( This post has been edited by a member of staff (Neomysterion) because of a violation of the forum rules.
