Anime Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 The prizes for the recent Charity Corner event are being awarded to participating users via Neomail. Users who made the Top 10 Most Generous Neopians List have all been awarded 10,000 NP and 1000 NC, while everyone else who donated at least one set of toys will get 2,000 NP and 150 NC. Prize messages are being sent to users in alphabetical order! Keep an eye on your inbox over the next day for yours! This is a lot of messages to write... Spritzie, Ruto, Spyke and 5 others 8 Quote
Aquamentis12 Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Wow, nice on the NC for the top donors! Can't seem to access neo right now, I hope they're working on the lag issues as well as sending out the Charity Corner prizes! EDIT: Finally was able to get back into Neo, but had to login again for some reason. Anyway, the Charity Corner NM came so that's pretty cool. :) Next year maybe I'll have to donate more! LOL Quote
Shelley Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 EVERYONE who donated at least one set of toys will receive 150 NC?? :O That makes me very happy indeed ^^ Quote
Finn the Human Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 I only donated r90+ toys so didnt get much past 75 without getting broke but eh, 1000 NC seems a little disappointing for people who spent hours donating for the top prize giving over 10k donations. Quote
Anime Posted January 7, 2015 Author Posted January 7, 2015 The lowest I saw reported was someone who donated 4 times and got it, so while I didn't see that specifically, I saw low enough that it'll liklely be all. They probably did it this way because the lag prevented a lot of people from donating as much as they would have if the site had been stable. Quote
passiflora Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Interesting - I wonder how long it will take to award all the prizes. I haven't received a neomail yet. I'm pretty happy about the NC thing; when I first head about it as a prize I thought it might just be for those who donated to the NC portion of the event! Quote
nightfall8705 Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 I've gotten my 2,000 NP, but no NC, and no Neomail yet. I'll keep my eye on my inbox though! :) Quote

They're going in alphabetical order, so it'll take some time before everyone gets theirs. Last I heard a couple hours ago they were on the a's and getting close to starting the b usernames. Probably sometime tomorrow afternoon. :) Quote
Zephyr Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Wow 1,000 NC. I think that's pretty sweet. I don't know why some people find that amount to be paltry. I mean I'm aware that there are some who spend way more on NC. But still, IMO, that's a nice chunk of NC. Or maybe I've been keeping a hawk eye on my budget for too long that 10 bucks feel like a big sum to me xDD But then again, I'm the kind who gets excited over free 125/150 NC :P Anyhow, no complaints from me regarding the prizes for this event :) Bodhi 1 Quote
Shane for Wax Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Oh wow that's actually a pretty nice prize in addition to the Gift of NC and the Stocking Stufftacular prize (which I'm not crazy about but hey I can always give it to someone who didn't participate in the thing). What a poor time for me to have a name beginning with 'r' tho. Maybe I can get one of those capsules with the neat background. Quote
1_groovychick Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 I got my email and prizes today. I'm quite happy with the award. Yes I spent more than I received, but I'm still happy with it. :santa: Quote
Cloysterbell Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 I just got my message and I'm a C username so looks like they're going at a pretty decent pace. Quote

Want to swap and have a username starting with 's' instead? :P (You'd have to figure out some magical way to switch usernames on our accounts but not the actual accounts themselves, though. Being banned is not on my Neopets-to-do list for 2015. XD) As to the prizes... on their own they might not be that amazing (though I would hardly call them bad, either), but when you combine it with the avatar for the gift-tag portions and the fact that we did get items for each set of donations... not bad at all.

Shane for Wax Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 No thank you, I'm used to being near to last in real life to begin with. :P Tho my name is like right in the middle of the alphabet. Quote
Margaery Tyrell Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Ouch. Gonna have to wait until the "N" usernames are addressed. I should have picked aryastark as my username. Quote
Lia Seeya Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Got my Neomail, NP, and NC! It was such a lovely surprise! :D Quote
decchild Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 My username starts with a 'x' stop complaining you lot (j/k)... I wonder if they'll do the CC again this year. Thoughts? Quote
hrtbrk Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 There is/was a tracking post on the Charity Board if anyone gets bored/curious as to where they are.

I kinda wondered if they'd leave it open year round, add a few more item tyes and just remove the whole Top 10 thing. It would keep allowing rarer items into the market and lowering the junky items from dailies. Quote
Anime Posted January 7, 2015 Author Posted January 7, 2015 If they decide to leave it up, then they may make it a daily- say, 5-10 turn ins a day? That would help prevent the inflation from getting out of hand but still allow for a steady stream of items to leave the market. That said I highly doubt they'll do this again any time soon.... and even then, the focus will likely be a different item type. Mouseykins and Emily 2 Quote
Shane for Wax Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 I hope they don't make it year round cause of the economy being ridic as it is. It'll just encourage more hoarders and stuff and cause people to artificially raise prices etc., Quote
Neopets9738368 Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 Any award of neocash is great :) I hope they don't do it again though, Food club was horrible the entire event and inflation was everywhere. Quote
AllTimeMarr Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 NICE! Now I have enough to buy a KeyQuest token... though I'll wait until my NC is gonna expire or KeyQuest gets fixed XD Quote
tk421beth Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 That is a nice prize. The NC will also come in handy! Quote
Drumbledore Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 >Opens up neo to see a letter from the team.>Insert panic.> Its free nc and neopoints!>Everything went better than expected.For real though, that's not bad considering you got prizes for donating as well. Quote
nousha Posted January 8, 2015 Posted January 8, 2015 I'm happy with the prizes and I'm also happy the prize for the first 10 wasn't some gorgeous item or petpet I'd be envying them for :) :) Quote
