lojoco49 Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 I am really quite excited about some of the perks in this preview http://www.neopets.com/charitycorner/2019/perk/ Particularly The Hidden Wheel! Looks like collectors might finally have a decent chance at some retired and special stamps without having to spend megabucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emily_speck_15 Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Oh.. Ummm.... I think this might be the April Fools joke... They typically always run one, and a lot of them seem unreasonable. Case in point: Get exclusive access to the Hidden Tower during its stock-taking shut down hours to grab an item and make off with it before anyone notices it’s gone! Which could be a 10 Mil+ np valued item I could be wrong, but this seems like too much to not be a joke.

Azariah Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 I was about to say the same thing. I mean some of them have some grit and could be a preview but most of them seem... unreasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteWolf Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 This had better be their April Fools prank. If it's for real, I'm going to be royally ticked off! ikids 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellysundae Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 *cackles* Quote Oh Gross Do you dislike battling on a full stomach? This perk will change that! Feed your Neopet any gross food and then go into battle right after - your Neopet will puke out their meal on the opponent, causing a significant reduction in your opponent’s health and damaging any food-based weapons that they may have equipped for the turn. That made me laugh, rather a lot, yep, I'm still firmly in touch with my inner 6 year old.

hrtbrk Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Clearly a joke but I hope that the event actually starts before we get into the Easter goodness because I don't want to wait until after lol gypsyknees, WhiteWolf and LekkerLekker89 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellysundae Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 I approve of this, so much better than last years (who's sat trying to remember what last year's was now, huh?) and I like the imagination they used for these, makes me hopeful for any new genuine perks they've come up with for this year's CC.

That could be because it slipped by you entirely at the time, lol, it was very easy to miss. It was plans for a Neopets theme park in China. It was all just too thrown together to work well as a prank though, sadly. Kind of like something some grade school kids might put together over a weekend. HA, and maybe it was. The best bit about last year's was this. I LOVE it when they can laugh about things like this, and it is so VERY true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GillyTook Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Oh. That's kinda funny. I saw their post on facebook yesterday, but it had this on the post, so I figured the joke was that the rewards couldn't be found Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neopets9738368 Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 The recent news says to use your points now.... so I guess there is no rollover? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What they're saying in the news is this is your last chance to use any points on last year's perks, not that they've recanted on left-over points being rolled-over. My perks have expired today, I need to pay full price for my stocks!! charelan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
granny63020 Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 I am trying to ready my SDB for this years CC and I have been looking at the point system for last years CC. I don't see R-99 mentioned so I'm wondering if this was just an oversight and there were points awarded for the R-99. Also why the C behind R89. Rarity Points R79 - lower 1 Point R80 - R89C 2 Points R90 - R98 6 Points R100 8 Points R101 1 Points R102 - 107 4 Points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellysundae Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 @Granny63020 The table on JN for last year says this: The points you receive depend on the individual items' rarities. Here's a breakdown: r1-r79: 1 point r80-89: 2 points r90-97: 6 points r98-r100: 8 points r101: 1 point r102-r179: 4 points r200: 15 points That's subtly different to what you have, but either way I don't think you need to worry about r99s not counting.

The info I posted came from TDN when I searched for CC 2018. I didn't try searching JN. Thanks for posting. JN is much more detailed than TDN.

jellysundae Posted June 17, 2019 Share Posted June 17, 2019 I think I've discovered a non-perk of Charity Corner, lol. I chose quest refresh from the Obelisk so cracked open a fortune cookie. How is this related to CC, you're wondering? Because so many people got rid of so much stuff during CC that faerie quest items are EXPENSIVE right now. The Red Sandcastle Set the dark fae wanted for today's quest JN gave a price of 650 NP for, I couldn't find it for less that 2k, every quest so far the items have been similarly inflated. Plus of course I have zero chance of having the item already because all my random stuff went for CC too, lol. So something for me to try and remember for next year - don't open a fortune cookie too soon after CC! midnight_spell360 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mischief51 Posted June 18, 2019 Share Posted June 18, 2019 i'm so excited, i got the more for less perk and was able to get 4 game avatars in two days! i'm especially pleased because two are games that i played ALL THE TIME as a kid (ice cream machine and tnt staff basher) and i always wanted those avatars but was never quite good enough. woo! jellysundae 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellysundae Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 I've just spent my last 100 perk points on the Round Round Round perk. Now let's hope I actually rememer to repeat my spins for the rest of the day! I only spin the Wheel of Mediocrity; always a modest profit to be made throughtout the day, unlike the Wheel of Excitement that rips you off most of the time. And there we go, profit I'll take it.

granny63020 Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 Hi Jelly, I have a little more than 2000 points left. The reason I haven't spent them is I used 5000 points to buy the Limited Edition perk and I didn't get it. I sent a ticket to neo and have never received a reply. I asked them to reset or whatever they do so I could use the perk or refund the 5000 points. Any suggestions with that problem? Also, any idea when the next CC starts or if the points are going to carry over? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's looking like the AC's going to be the next event, so if CC's going to happen this year it coming along at some point after that makes sense. but who knows? All we do know is that points absolutely will not carry over again, they were very categorical about never doing that again. granny63020 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
