NEW DAILY: The Coincidence

[713160514]

A portal appears in midair, and you see Hanso and Brynn arguing. Behind them, an artefact glows brightly and then explodes, raining hot dogs everywhere.

got nothing :(

[Bright ^_^]

Nothing seems to happen. Oh wait, check the floor! You might want to catch that Veespa before it crawls away.

Wow! A petpetpet. What is this?

[Welcome Back Apathy]

Decrease in defense by 1.

 

I wonder what the probability of random avatars is...for me, it's worth any price to get that :P

[HomuraAkemiTheHero]

I lost 590 neopoints. I spent almost the same amount for the items. I hope tomorrow will come out better.

[hrtbrk]

This is pretty cool. If only they would remove the ridiculously expensive items from the pool. :wub_anim:

[cat_attack]

I actually received something:

 

 

Robot Petpet award: First you see a bright flash of light. Then you see metal pieces being pulled in as if by a magnet. Slowly the pieces assemble themselves into a Flipperbot. Technology is neat!

[Fernael]

I got this:

 

An electric current starts to fill the room, but quickly leads to smoke. When everything has settled, you see that there is something different about Frozenfire_999999. Oh, no... It looks like their level have gone down by 2!

 

Seriously?

 

Note: Frozenfire_999999 is my active pet, and my items are taken.

"A portal appears in midair, and you see Hanso and Brynn arguing. Behind them, an artefact glows brightly and then explodes, raining hot dogs everywhere."

This could end up to be very interesting.

:(

It took the items and I lost one level on my active pet

 

not sure how it is going to effect things with avatars being given out, like the stamp one. Also a lot of people are getting some very large stat increases, (sadly not me) makes me wonder if training is going to be pointless ?!

[Novelista]

Yeah, I got a nay, too:

A crew of Alien Aishas docks with the ship, comes aboard, snaps photos of everything they see, then leaves for their next tourist stop.

I was completely ready to toss it out, but if you're getting avvies and P3s (potentially a lot of money), it might be worthwhile...

[x3xpotterx3x]

I did
1x Meepit vs Feepit game guide
3x Icy Snowballs
1x Pink Faerie Snowball
and I got

"

It also DID take the items from my inventory.

 

SO CONFUSED. People are getting avatars and increasing/decreasing stats.
Is this an extended joke?

[kjgymnatics19]

I got the Battleground: The Sway avatar!!!

 

So excited only 3.55% of TDNers have it!

[Fernael]

This is on the New Features page today:

 

Thanks to your help, it looks like the Random Events machine is running again! Yay! If you enjoyed working as a scientist's assistant, you can now visit The Coincidence every day! Go on an errand for Dr Landelbrot, and you just might get to press one of those shiny buttons at the end. That's a worthy reward in itself, right?

 

So yes, this is a daily.

[becca6500]

I got 1833 neopoints.

 

Are the avatars a glitch or a joke? I'm really confused! I hope its a joke.

[jcpet]

"A fog cloud swirls past you. Was that Corbin and Kell inside? They appear to be having a tea party with a monster."

Not sure how I feel about these random events. At least I have a lab rat though...

[ashleagh]

An electric current starts to fill the room, but quickly leads to smoke. When everything has settled, you see that there is something different about CHARMANDER_03824neo. Oh, no... It looks like their defence has gone down by 1!

 

 

 

 

 

Ah man!! I hope the level decreases are only by one...spent too much time training *lol*

[Angeló]

ok ... this stamp avatar thing is ridiculous ........ i mean retired avatars are OK in my opinion ... but I totally refuse to be handed an avatar that some people spent over 100Mil NP on .... I'm seriously hoping this is an extension of April Fool's .. otherwise lots of people will just quit ... and junk items will keep inflating ,!!!

The Avatar event is meant to be super duper uber rare - we are currently looking into the event rarities to make sure that this remains the case!

So, the Avatar thing isn't a joke?

Actually, wait, hold on. This is from page 14 of the same topic:

The avatar event has been deactivated for now.

I like this new daily a lot. o3o

That's my thinking as well. It seems to be uncommon that people are getting avatars (let alone the uber rare ones like the stamp avatars) and according to the quote that Bright ^_^ just posted, it's going to be even more uncommon in the future. But why is it a thing to start with? The hard-to-get avatars are an achievement to be proud of, and it cheapens it to have some people get it without doing the work. I'm not going to lose any sleep over this, it's just a game after all, but I do disagree with it.

Posting in this thread is fine, but you should also try posting here in the official "asking-for-help-with-The-Coincidence" thread. Unfortunately Stagnant Puddles of Water are the most common thing being asked for, but hopefully someone can help you out!

[Saxen]

My computer froze up so I wasn't able to see what I got *facepalm*. Wasn't an avatar though :/ boo

[juicebox]

Didn't think to C&P my random event but I got a Robocrush (petpet).
