Point ratios changed again.

[zoaskitten]

Defender Trainer and escape from Kredulor have gone way down. Now I need 2 new 3k np quick games.

Escape went from 2.47 to 0.68

[Alex]

WHYYYY do they do this? It screws with my head so badly.

I've got a list of 3k games here.

3k games I've got listed:
Fruit Flavoured Fallout (Sponsor): 795 points
Milk Surf (Sponsor): 1000 points
Attack of the Revenge: 323 points
Bouncy Supreme: 926 points (a few people say they have trouble with this, but I've found it's a case of just practising it until it's second nature. Then the 1k is easy )
Defender Trainer: 395 points (though you mentioned you need a game to replace this, so...)
Sutek's Tomb: 654 points
Hannah and the Ice Caves: 50000 points (just play the last level)
Whack-A-Kass: 855 points

I think there's a couple more that I skipped over on there too.

[Pickles]

Ice Cream Machine just got super easy! It went from 12000 odd to 5264. {huggles favorite game}
Zurroball seems to be about the same (unless I totally missed it): 78
Snow Wars II got a little harder - I think it's roughly around 353 (can't remember), but still doable within the first round.
Turmac Roll is a little easier now...went to 1098 or so
Dubloon Disaster is ridiculously easy, having dropped from 500 to 200.

On the other hand: Volcano Run and Pterratack now stink muchly. (1700+ and 4000 respectively) I don't think it's currently possible to get a full 1k on Volcano Run.

That's all I can remember from last night off hand.

[fructy]

I hate it when they do this. Now I have to find other games that pay out well. Wocky Wobble was an easy 3k a day first, now it's dropped from 13 ratio to 2. The ratio of Volcano Run has dropped a lot too.

Are there any easy games that pay out well now?

[shapu]

Freaky factory went to 2.68.

I think the reason they do it is that they don't want people playing certain games and ignoring others with money being the motivator.

I think I'm OK with it. I just look for games that I know and am good at, and if I feel like I need cash, I play them.

[Kenjiro]

I actually see this as a good thing.

It's not like I am supergood in games or something, but there are plenty that I can play without much trouble, although the input/payout ratio might differ. with the point/np ratio changing, I have some variation in the games, instead of getting bored out of my mind after playing the same game over and over and over and... But on the other hand, changing it monthly is quite quick, once every three months or so would be perfect

[Lee]

When ever they change te ratios it really messes up my game schedual.

[Kenjiro]

Chia Bomber 2 is up again, almost the same as it was in after the July change

[Pink]

They need to pick a ratio...I'm tired of the constant changing!

[Jocelyn Spicer]

They changed Defender Trainer too?! All of my 3k games are GONE! Shenkuu Warrior went down so low, I'm going to scream! Now how will I get my 10k a day goal?! (Nooo! My dreams of Skunk Usul, Halloween Bruce, and Royal Korbat has diiiiiiiiiied!)

Here are some tips for Freaky Factory:

First off, unless you have a superfast computer, play this in low quality. It'll run much smoother, which is VERY important considering how much timing matters in this game.

In levels one through four, make sure that two of your vats are full before you make your first toy (that is, make sure that if your first toy must be red, fill the yellow and blue vats to the top first). And don't drop anything into that final vat unless you'll have at least enough left over after that first toy to make one more of the same color(s).

The key in scoring for the first four levels is the consecutive bonuses and time remaining. I have level-by-level targets that go something like this:
Level 1: 140 (10 toys)
Level 2: 320 (13 toys)
Level 3: 450 (15 toys)
Level 4: 610 (18 toys)

If you can fill up the two alternate vats in level 5 (20 toys), do so, but it's not so important.

If you're in level one, haven't made your first toy yet, and you're down to 3/4 of the starting time, just hit reset.

Don't ever pass up a glowing blob. Upgrading toys on the line can mean another 40 points, especially in higher levels.

Never just let an angel blob pass you by, even if it's just to add one unit to one vat. If all of your vats are full, drop it on a toy if possible, since that's a bonus.

Never let the grundo thief steal a toy, unless doing so would make it impossible to drop a 5-unit blob in a vat that really needs it. That's two-and-a-half toys, the grundo thief can only steal one at a time.

That should get you started. Good luck.

You should try evil fuzzles:
http://www.neopets.com/games/play.phtml?game_id=585
And read this game guide:
http://www.neopets.com/~Hanahr

You should try Attack of the Revenge:
http://www.neopets.com/games/play.phtml?game_id=527
Which doesn't really require a game guide...it's relatively easy to score the 330 points required for 1k.

There's always Skies over Meridell:
http://www.neopets.com/games/play.phtml?game_id=340
Score 255 and get 1000 nps.

And if you beat level 1 of snow wars 2:
http://www.neopets.com/games/play.phtml?game_id=544
You'll get 1000 nps without a problem.

In fact, I'll post my scores for those games below:
-Freaky factory (score for 1k: 374)
My scores: 1120, 1101, 1216 (3k nps).

-Snow wars 2 (score for 1k: 374)
my scores (after level 1): 513, 434, 616

Skies over Meridell (score for 1k: 254)
my scores: 150, 345, 280

Attack of the revenge (score for 1k: 323)
My scores: 809, 754, 339

Evil Fuzzles from Beyond the Stars (score for 1k: 486)
My scores: (all after level 4): 671, 680, 622

Total play time: about 1 hour.
Total nps: 14592.
