Well, everybody loves gummies.
Also, while playing the new game, look what I found!
The Phantom Orange Shirt Guy strikes again!
I'm not too sure what he does, but he cleared the yellow blocks on the bottom level that he touched. Either that or he's a small bomb that clears the 8 squares about him, maybe. I dunno

Am I the only one whose first thought was 'That is the rarest gummi of them all, the gummi Venus de Milo, carved by gummi artisans who were exclusively in the medium of gummi. Will you two stop saying gummi all the time!'?

I love that game. How much can you get on it?

Only played for a minute 'cause I want to do plot stuff, but omg. That Gummy Dice game? Totally rocks.
Also rocks in the sense that it's one np per on point scored. Yayness!

About the POSG block, I'm still not sure if it's considered hard to get; I've just encountered him again in my second game, the same stage I took that first screenie. It was the fourth stage. This time, I dropped him on the second layer, and it seems he takes out all the blocks in a 3 by 3 by 3 cube around him. Rather useful, for when everything's getting cloggy.
I'm not very good at this game.

I'm not all that great at this game either, but geez, it's addictive. XD I keep having too many blocks left over at the end of each level, so my score drops significantly. Because of that, I hope they don't change the NP ratio, I have enough trouble getting 1000 as it is.
On a somewhat unrelated note, I wish they'd stop making Blumaroos with huge creepy eyes, semi-gelatinous bodies, and wonky shading. Part of the reason I thought Blumaroos were so adorable when I first came to the Neopets site was because they had these cute little bitty eyes (well that, and they reminded me a LOT of these guys ). Now they're moving away from that, which makes me wary of any possible revamp. Sure, the current art for most of the Blumaroos you can own as pets has virtually no shading and definitely could use some life in the linework, but I'd rather have it than virtually any of the Blumaroos I've seen drawn for plots, games, and even TCG in the past year.
....sorry, that was a bit long. Digression over.
