Syrin of Neopia Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 I've never seen the anything about Smuggler's Cove restocks in the News. Is that a premium users thing or am I just missing something? Also, (I'm sure there's probably an article on this somewhere) but is there a "good" time to try and get a rare chocolate from the shop for that Chocolate Avatar or is it just a "refresh, random, best of luck to you" type of deal?

Sweetdang Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Refresh at restocking times, which are :08 - :10 seconds past the minute - you can easily tell because any item past 5,000np will get you the avvie. :) I got that from here. :) Quote
Masaryk Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Every time they add a new item to the Smugglers' Cove, it is in the news, but TNT doesn't outright state where the new item can be found. If you see new weapons pop up in the news, that is likely where you will find them. Or fail to find them, since you can only refresh there every 20 minutes or so. It's largely about luck. Quote
The Meepit Commando Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Yep, luck, something I don't have, I'm starting to think TNT hates me o.O Quote
Syrin of Neopia Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 Thanks, Sweetdang. I will have to work on my restocking skills. & yeah, luck is clearly a factor lack on Neopets Quote
Tedhaun Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 Refresh at restocking times, which are :08 - :10 seconds past the minute - you can easily tell because any item past 5,000np will get you the avvie. :) I got that from here. :) Thanks to you Sweetdang, now I'm going to try my luck to snag an r90+ Chocolate/Candy Item from the Chocolate Factory. I've been pretty good at restocking over at Icepets when it came to snagging three Tech Traptur MPs (really coveted over there). Quote
Sweetdang Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 I'm tying it out myself. No worries, happy to help. :) Quote
Spritzie Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 I've never had any luck with getting a 90+ rarity item for the Chocolate avatar. I keep forgetting to try when the time of day is better. Quote
rachiee Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 I won't bother with restocking until I get the motivation to start doing so. I kinda want the Chocolate avatar, but not as much as some other avatars, such as the Brightvale one. Sadly, every time I spin the Wheel of Knowledge I always get something like knowledge from King Hagan or a cheap book or weapon. Or I end up one or two spaces away from the avatar. I also want to start feeding Kads one of these days, but again, I don't have all that much motivation at the moment :P Quote
Spritzie Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 I think the Kad avatar will be far away for me to achieve. Same with Kelp. I spend WAY too much on it last week, without success. I'll probably start working on game avatars next. Quote
rachiee Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 Oh god, game avatars. They're the bane of my existence as well as the high score tables. :S The only games I'm okay at are Imperial Exam, Usuki Frenzy and sometimes Turmac Roll... and there aren't any avatars for those games. I would totally love it if there was a Turmac Roll avatar. I don't see why that doesn't exist yet considering it's a fairly popular game. Quote
Spritzie Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 I have a few game avatars, like Typing Terror and Carnival of Terror, but that's about it. (Not counting easy to get ones with guides, like Grand Theft Ummagine, Dice Escape and the Castle of Eliv Thade.) Quote
Ruka Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 I have none. :( However, I'm aiming for Kass Basher avvie (so close the unlocking the bat level, 444) and the Hannah and The Pirate Caves avvie, but that game won't load! I wonder why... Quote
Spritzie Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 The last time I tried to load the Hannah and the Pirate Caves game, it didn't load for me. I haven't tried again. Quote
Ruka Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 Mine too. Hannah and the Ice Caves will load for me, but Hannah and the Pirate Caves wouldn't. :( Quote
Spritzie Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 I don't think I've tried the other one. I know at one point, the Pirate Caves one worked. The Gourmet Club Bowls was the only Shockwave game I could never get to load. Quote
Anisha Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 I don't think I've tried the other one. I know at one point, the Pirate Caves one worked. The Gourmet Club Bowls was the only Shockwave game I could never get to load. I haven't played neopet games for... AGES. :D I should go and try some. Quote
khaos Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 I never play any Shockwave NP games. :/ I don't have the plug-in. Week = has gotten very slightly better. :/ EDIT: Prankster! (Or Anisha, as some people call you) I don't know you very well, but at least you're back! :D Quote
rachiee Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 I never bothered with playing games like HATIC/HATPC and Gourmet Club Bowls because I've never downloaded Shockwave. :| I don't know if it's worth downloading though because all I want to do is play those games that require the Shockwave player... In other news, I'm really happy and excited right now. :woot: Quote
khaos Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 Yeah, I downloaded Shockwave, but the game was as slow as CRAP. It was lagging like a wolverine. (NVM that if you don't get the reference) The game was, Something Slorgs.. I can't remember. :/ Why are 24 guests stalking this topic...? Quote
rachiee Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 I don't know. It's actually kind of common for there to be more than 5 guests stalking this thread for some reason. *shrug* I think the game you're talking about is Attack of the Slorgs. I thought it was the only game with "Slorgs" in the title then I found out there's a game called "Slorgs in Space," which must be pretty new. IDK. Quote
khaos Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 Yeah. Attack of the Slorgs the one wih the Mynci Yurble..? :P Slorgs in Space, that was made a year or so back. :D Quote
rachiee Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 Aha, so that's why I don't recognize it. I took a long break from Neopets (and the internet in general) from like, September '09 until January '11. xP I did take several short breaks in between though. Also, it's a Yurble and not a Mynci :P Quote
khaos Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 ARGH, I DONT REMEMBER ANYTHING. :S Staffies, does This --> :fez: relate to Fez fom That 70's Show? Quote
Sweetdang Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 WHat time of the day, actually, is considered "better"? EDIT: Sorry, I was talking about chocolate restocking didn;t flip the page. :P Quote
