April 1, 20197 yr 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
April 1, 20197 yr 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. Sorry to burst your bubble
April 1, 20197 yr 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.
April 1, 20197 yr Author Oh curses!! I let my guard down because April Fools day was yesterday here. Haha, must remember for next year
April 1, 20197 yr This had better be their April Fools prank. If it's for real, I'm going to be royally ticked off!
April 1, 20197 yr *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. ?
April 1, 20197 yr 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
April 1, 20197 yr 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.
April 1, 20197 yr It's good to see Granny has a sense of humor. I thought it was an entertaining April Fool's joke.

What was last year's? It's entirely slipped my mind at this point.

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. ?
April 2, 20197 yr 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 ?

I was certain I read somewhere that our unused points could be kept for next time - can anyone confirm this or recall where that info came from?

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!! ? ??
April 21, 20197 yr 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
April 21, 20197 yr @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.
June 17, 20197 yr 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! ?
June 18, 20197 yr 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!
May 10, 20206 yr 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.
May 10, 20206 yr 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?

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.
