Back from a hiatus!

Hello all, I've been away for a few months, and I came back today and there seems to be a lot of new stuff going on (like the spinning thing as soon as I logged on? Awesome!) so yeah, I was wondering if anyone could update me with the big stuff that's happened in the last...six months I guess! :)

Hello and welcome back! I think the biggest thing that happened was the change in management from Viacom to Jumpstart earlier this year, and since the transfer the site's become a bit buggy and laggy, which the current team is still working on fixing.

And the wheel is Trudy's Surprise (which I think was introduced last month, or very early this month) and it can award up to 100,000 neopoints! Though it usually fluctuates somewhere between 15,000-20,000 most days. It was also recently changed to reset after 24-hours instead of at midnight, so that's something to be aware of if it doesn't show up immediately the next day.

I've read a bit about the bugs and things - not good, but it looks like they're fixing it (I think!)
And that's awesome! I did it earlier when I signed in, and was most impressed to be welcomed back to 2500 nps :D

Yeah, the change to Jumpstart was definitely the biggest change~
Habitarium has been removed permanently (or at least that's what I've been hearing) and Keyquest as well as a few other things are down for a while until all of the bugs have been fixed~ 
Oh also, I'm not sure if TNT has addressed this yet, but new accounts are currently unable to be made because access codes aren't being sent out/recieved :x

I vaguely remember the habitarium going (had a game on there but barely used it :/ ) and yeah, no one seems too happy about key quest going.

Haven't heard that yet about new accounts - that's awful :/

Hi, welcome back. The articles are probably the best way to catch up, here's the link

Be sure to read the one on Trudy's Surprise. It has changed to once every 24 hours exactly, and if you miss a day, you won't climb, it's back to Day 1.
