jellysundae Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 LOL...ah well, looks like we'll get the avatar EVENTUALLY then. Never fear guys, we've still got the trophies/prizes to be disappointed in yet! ALSO...it's a pretty damn big LOL that the avatar says "TNT at work", but it doesn't work!

Wish I would have known that from the beginning but it definitely made it a lot easier lol Oh my goodness me too!!! I am so glad that I figured that out, I don't think I would have been able to make it as far as I did. Even with the Tab button I had to take breaks. (My joints aren't the strongest.) Sure glad I'm done for this round. How many donations are you aiming for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't really aiming for a specific number since this was my first year but I'll be happy if I get a trophy. Kinda bummed I didn't pay close enough attention to get the avatar but it was still a lot of fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was around 300 as well, and then got really carried away with things. I honestly didn't think I would qualify for the avatar because I missed the first 1.5 days. I am looking forward to the trophies and prizes! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrtbrk Posted February 9, 2017 Author Share Posted February 9, 2017 Well this is messy. It also looks like they removed the Fall 2015 one from users who unlocked it yesterday :/ jellysundae 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouseykins Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Do we know if the solution is to donate once every day? Or how this new one is unlocked? Quite the mess TNT has created here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hrtbrk Posted February 10, 2017 Author Share Posted February 10, 2017 I'm not 100% on the donate four days in a row thing. The boards seem to say different things and a lot of us here have also donated 4 days (or every day) and still haven't received it.

The boards only talk about those who didn't get the Charity Corner 2015 avatar, and are getting the new Charity Corner 2017 avatar. Some who have gotten it, have donated for 7 days, but some have said they got it by donating less day. It seems the avatar is "glitched" being awarded for those of us who did get the Charity Corner 2015 avatar. As far as I can tell, no one who has gotten the Charity Corner 2015 avatar has been awarded the new Charity Corner 2017 avatar. I know I've donated for 7.5 days. I really hope if they can't fix it by midnight NST tonight, they at least award it with the basic trophy and up. I guess we will see what TNT/JS does... If you look at the page source code, it looks like they used the code from the last Charity Corner, which used code from the first CC. You can see references to the "most generous Neopians". That was from the first CC where they had a leader board going. I can understand using previous source code, but at least test it first. The avatar awarding code looks the same as last CC's. *sigh* I guess I shouldn't be surprised. This is from the same TNT/JS that didn't seem concerned about changing the "Daily Question".

The boards have so many theories, but I don't even know what to believe in. I hope neopets fixes this. I really want that avvie and if I don't get it I might send a very strongly worded complaint to them.

nicolelouise Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 So my question is, for those of us with the previous avatar who have the glitch affecting us, since the event is going to end very soon, how/where will we get the avatar? If it required 'one more donation' to activate it for everybody else, how will it work for us? We're not going to be able to make one more donation.

Trophies still have to be awarded. And they are usually awarded after the event ends. So, they could award the avatar along with the trophies. Well, that could be one way. Not sure what TNT/JS will do, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angeló Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 i donated for the last time 15 minutes before the event ended and no avatar :( on the other hand I made some good NP from selling my R90's and I just fought in the BD and got 3 R90's lol ... i think i have gotten a total of 3 R90's in the BD during the WHOLE week the event was live (im now almost sure they changed the ratios of items/codestones during the event) Mouseykins and jellysundae 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I received a boat load of codestones and only 2-3 R90s throughout the event. Normally I get fewer codestones and more books. Lets see what happens when they release the prizes. I'm hoping they changed the requirements for the avatar and instead of it being x many days of donating to be those who earned a trophy from bronze up since usually just participant tiers don't get an avatar.

jellysundae Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 *sigh* This has turned into a bit of a hot mess, hasn't it? And there we were thinking JS was getting better... More of us were calling them TNT now, had you noticed that? I think that shows that subconsciously we'd started trusting them more, but now it's looking like some/one of them at least isn't deserving of that trust. *pokes lazy coder in the eye* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jellysundae Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 So the hot mess continues! Well, for me... Firstly, TNT seem REALLY keen to tell me how much they appreciate my participation. Which has resulted in... But, TWO exclusive items, I hear you cry?! Why yes! Not only the WONDERFUL yellow hard hat, but - be still my beating heart - a reflective vest too!! Marvel at the amazingness of it! AND - now really, can you take any more excitement at this point? - because of the neomail glitch, I got THREE of each of them! A positive BOUNTY of riches! *coughs* Right, sarcasm aside - I can put it to one side though it is an effort! fear not sarcasm I will return for you soon <3 - I donated 1000 times to get this silver trophy hate to think how many were needed to get the gold one.

Well I'm not happy.... I thought they'd lower it this year :(( I only donated just UNDER 500 because my computer started glitching. I'm still ticked about none of this stuff being awarded..... lol I'd spend the NC before they notice and take it away! haha Also what is with all these construction things? I don't see these items becoming very popular or worth more NP in the future Ugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see these items becoming very popular or worth more NP in the future Ugh. Yeah, I was pretty shocked at only getting a silver trophy, especially as the event was shorter than previous ones. I was about bored to DEATH of the buying/donating cycle when I still had 100 to go, but I didn't want to give up at that point. For an event that does a much needed job of reducing bandwidth and subsequently their costs, you'd think they'd do more to encourage people when it comes to prizes. Seriously. The items are special and r.101 too, Of course... Funny you saying that about the NC, I go totally the other way and am afraid to use it unless I get frozen. >_< I'm gonna leave it to sit for a few months.

missmadiemay Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 Nothing weird for me, I was awarded new avatar bronze trophy 200 NC and some ugly helmet.

Let's take a guess at what it will be...some work gloves? Some steel toecap boots maybe? Or how about a grimy and battered old Thermos flask so they can have a cup of coffee after all their hard work? How about a pick axe? So they can go and play on Minecraft instead of wasting time on Neo events for rubbish prizes. midnight_spell360 and Musical_Shoyru 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
