Margaery Tyrell Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Hi hi! I'm Shannon, 19, and from the USA, and I've done it again... I wrote a great introduction that described me perfectly and gave you all some fun facts about me... and then I accidentally hit backspace and all was lost. So why don't we switch this up a bit and you can ask me questions, if you'd like! I'm an open book. ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astro Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Hi Margaery, it's nice to see you here on the forums! I'm Astro/Riah. What's your favorite neo-species, and neo-color? (I love krawks, I have 7 so far!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grenthine Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Hello, Margaery! I hope you enjoy your time here with us! Hmm... a question... *thinks* Where in the US do you live? I live in Washington state. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margaery Tyrell Posted April 3, 2014 Author Share Posted April 3, 2014 Hi Margaery, it's nice to see you here on the forums! I'm Astro/Riah. What's your favorite neo-species, and neo-color? (I love krawks, I have 7 so far!) Oops, I forgot to mention my name is Shannon! Margaery is a character from Game of Thrones. Nice to meet you, Riah! My favorite species is most definitely a tie between Eyries and Xweetoks. I love how majestic/regal Eyries look - I have a Stealthy Eyrie named Pryme who I love with all my heart. Xweetoks are just adorable. They're so feminine (in my eyes) and look so lovely in certain customizations. I have a Xwee named Freefolk that I'm planning on painting Woodland and customizing her until I've wasted so much NC it's embarassing, haha. I love Krawks, too! They're so fun to customize and I love their faces. Maybe I'll morph my pet Ghoaste into one at some point. I'd say my favorite color is Stealthy because it's so unique between each pet. Between patterned colors, Maractite is my favorite. It reminds me of a Disney movie from 2001 called Atlantis. My gallery is entirely devoted to the color. :wub_anim: Hello, Margaery! I hope you enjoy your time here with us! Hmm... a question... *thinks* Where in the US do you live? I live in Washington state. :) Hey there! I've just edited my original post because my name is actually Shannon, haha. Sorry my username is so misleading! Thanks for the well wishes! I'm from Texas! But oh my goodness, I love Washington state. It's so beautiful and full of culture! I would visit there every month, if I could. Such an amazing place.

Novelista Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I knew I remembered that name from somewhere! I don't watch GoT, though, so I was thinking it was from somewhere else. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's really, really cool and a great example of a strong female character. :yes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novelista Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I'm not sure I'd be interested in the show (when we get satellite, we're only going to have the usual 3 months free of HBO and we'll probably get rid of Netflix), but I'm starting to think I should read the books. Have you read them (or any other TDNers), and if so, are they worth it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawnshine Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I've read the GoT books, LOVE THEM! However it is one of the rare instances where the show is equally as amazing. I would recommend both to anyone of a mature age. ^_^ Welcome, Shannon. Nice to see a fellow GoT fangirl around here. I'm Hailey, haic0re on Neo, dawnshine on TDNF. I feel like they're all of my alias' or something, haha. XD Anywho, how long have you been playing Neo? Do you have long breaks and then (inevitably) come back like a lot of the rest of us around here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you read them (or any other TDNers), and if so, are they worth it? It's a very violent, explicit, and emotional show, but it is truly amazing if you're even slightly into power struggles and even medieval/fantasy themes. I've read the first two books, and I loved them dearly. They're very long and seem a bit daunting at first, but each chapter follows one character, so it's all split up nicely for you. I feel like that helps sort things out in my head, haha. They're very worth it! :thumbsup: I've read the GoT books, LOVE THEM!

Haha, gotta list all of those nicknames - I'm on so many different sides it's hard to keep track! I've been on Neo almost 11 years now! (I created surfcat08 when I was eight years old. It's hilarious looking at my old lookup.) I used to take breaks for years at a time but I think I'm back to stay this time. What about you? Been around for a long time? I love your list of interests! :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shelley Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 *gasps* A Game of thrones Fan!! :D oh my goodness, don't even get me started...I'm so excited for season 4. Although I have to admit I'm not yet finished with dance with dragons...I was interrupted with some other books and decided I would take a break, as they are a LOT to take in lol. nice to meet you :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azurablue Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Hi and welcome to TDN! I hope you love it here. We're all pretty friendly here. Game of Thrones (A Song of Fire and Ice) is pretty brutal in the later books and the series diverged a long way from it, but if you look at both of them as separate entities, they each have their own merits. What I find most fascinating is that no matter who you side with, there really isn't anyone that's a "nice" person. They're all really cutthroat. There are no real "heroes". A small bit of advice to those who are having trouble keeping track of it all: try writing down the page number for each characters' chapters and reading only one "person" at a time. Like only read the chapters named Tyrion, then go back and read someone else's chapters, and so on. It gives you a more linear viewpoint of exactly what each of them is doing. I recommend doing this after you've read the entire thing as it's written, of course. It's only for catching all those subtleties that you might have missed the first time through. Works wonders.

muertadivina Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Hello Shannon and everyone else, my name is Vanessa and i too am from Texas. I also have been a neopets user for many years. Like everyone else i occasionally have taken the said break from neopets from time to time. I always seem to be drawn back though. Unfortunately, i have missed a couple plots this way though. Oh well. Wow, i feel so out of the loop with my lack of "Game of Thrones" knowledge. haha. Perhaps that shall inspire me to find the the first season and start watching the show. Everyone have a good day out there in Washington...texas...wherever you may be Oh yeah, btw, maractite totally does remind me of the Disney Atlantis movie also. I have always though so.

Margaery Tyrell Posted April 4, 2014 Author Share Posted April 4, 2014 hey how are you? are you good at restocking? any tips? thank you : ) Hey, I'm doing great - thanks for asking! I'm actually getting a lot better at restocking lately! Yesterday (Half Price Day) I restocked a Happiness Faerie Plushie and some other random plushies/stamps that I put in my shop. My only tip is to keep practicing! Whenever you miss a restock, just think of how you're closer to catching it each time. You'll get the hang of it soon. :yes: *gasps* A Game of thrones Fan!! :D oh my goodness, don't even get me started...I'm so excited for season 4. Although I have to admit I'm not yet finished with dance with dragons...I was interrupted with some other books and decided I would take a break, as they are a LOT to take in lol. nice to meet you :) I'm only on A Clash of Kings, so at least you're ahead of me! I'm a very slow reader because of some processing problems, but the series really keeps me motivated! I cannot wait until the season premiere! It's going to be amazing. I've already had everything spoiled for me, but I'm excited to see how the show handles things. :king: Hi and welcome to TDN! I hope you love it here. We're all pretty friendly here.

Thanks so much! I'm really impressed by how welcoming all of you are! I absolutely love how the characters are so multi-faceted. It keeps things fresh, unlike other books that follow the usual hero and villain tropes. I've definitely had to get used to how the books and the show differs, but it actually helps to make things more interesting for each medium. I don't thing some parts of the books would work on television, as well as parts of the show not working in the books. I'm very excited to see how they work in different things for this next season! And that's a really great tip for readers. Maybe once I finish the series, I'll go back and do that. ^_^ Hello Shannon and everyone else, my name is Vanessa and i too am from Texas.

Hey there, Vanessa! Nice to see another Texan on here! Oh wow, I see you're from SATX. Me too! Neopets really does suck you back in. I can't stay away, haha. Yeah, I've missed some plots too. I'm pretty disappointed about that, because some of them looked really interesting. Hopefully we get a new plot soon because these events are starting to get a bit repetitive. Definitely check out Game of Thrones, though! It's so, so interesting and exciting. And let me know what you think if you do end up watching! Right? It's just like in that film. My friend actually just gifted me a Maractite Flishy today to put in my gallery. I can't get enough of that color! <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muertadivina Posted April 21, 2014 Share Posted April 21, 2014 Hi shannon. Vanessa here...again. If you are interested, I set up a couple trades of maraqua stuff i have at: http://www.neopets.com/island/tradingpost.phtml?type=browse&criteria=owner&search_string=van13air . Unfortunately, my maraquan war token is untradable. All the stuff in the trades is freely yours if you want any of it. It isn't necessarily maractite stuff, but you might be interested anyway.
