New Split! Previous thread is here. Last page of prior split is here

FAQs - Trudy's Surprise

Does Trudy's Surprise reward only Neopoints? Are there any bonus prizes?
There is a chance to receive an bonus NC prize!

How many Neopoints will I earn each time I use Trudy's Surprise?
The amount of Neopoints awarded will keep increasing for each consecutive day you play! Each day you come back and spin again, you can increase your prize. If you play 25 consecutive days, you could win 100,000 Neopoints, then the counter is reset to Day 1 to work your way up again!

How often can I use Trudy's Surprise Slot Machine?
Trudy's Surprise Slot Machine can be played once a day. It will be available on all pages, but will disappear once it has been used, and will not be shown again in the same 24-hour period. The day will reset at 00:00:00 NST.

I got less Neopoints today from Trudy's Surprise than yesterday. What happened?
The prize pool resets if you miss a day, or after 25 consecutive days.

The Terrifyingly Bad Luck Bonus sounds terrifying. What is it?
The Terrifyingly Bad Luck Bonus is awarded for having, well, bad luck. If you play and your slots machine shows up 4 different items, you have the chance of being awarded extra points. However, you can only win this bonus once in a while. So, if you have Terrifyingly Bad Luck more than once within a week, well, that's just worse than terrifyingly bad luck and even we can't help you.

Am I guaranteed a Terrifyingly Bad Luck Bonus during a round?
No. There have been confirmed rounds with zero Terrifyingly Bad Luck Bonuses during the round. But, there have also been confirmed rounds with two Terrifyingly Bad Luck Bonuses during a round!

Days 1-5 and days 10-24 all have identically "bad" BLBs of only 2,500 NP

The "Good" days have the following bonuses:
Day 6: 5,000
Day 7: 7,500
Day 8: 9,375
Day 9: 5,000

Here is the info for what matching is worth vs. no match:

Days 1-5 and 10-24: 500 NP/item matched (so 2 matches are worth +500, 3: +1000, 4: +1500 vs. no match)
Day 6: 1000 NP/item matched
Day 7: 1500 NP/item matched
Day 8: 1875 NP/item matched
Day 9: 1000 NP/item matched (except 4 matches is worth 1250 more than 3 matches)
Day 25: BLB and matching are each worth absolutely nothing!


Interesting info:
Minimum Round payout: (No matches on all days and BLB on Day 25 ): 445,375
Maximum Round payout: (4 matches on all days and BLB on Day 8 ): 495,500

Amount paid out by TNT on or about 2/28 for a misadventure site maintenance hiccup: 491,500 (match 4 on all days and BLB on Day 25). Nice.

Day 4, Matched 0, 5.5k

My 7-day streak reset again yesterday for no apparent reason. Really tired of that happening. Really tired of it.

Also, in case you didn't see it:
Hello Neopians! We know site lag has been frustrating lately, and we truly appreciate you sticking with us as we work behind the scenes to improve performance. As part of these efforts, automated alerts (including Trudy’s Surprise notifications and others in the Alerts tab) have been temporarily disabled.

Actually happy to see the removal of the Trudy's notifications. My experience has been that this notification was intermittent and did not work properly. Sometimes, it would show up after I spun the wheel.

Day 6, Matched 0, 9k

I had to make myself a bookmark for Trudy again because the notifications were how I'd get to her. Ah, well.
I have also noticed that the majority of the time, the first time I visit the page, it resets my week to 7. I am now being conscious of refreshing until that number is correct. I think not doing so is how it reset. Irritating, but yeah.

That is really strange behaviour, P! Weird.

Day 6: matched 2, 10k and Spooky Shadow Aisha Plushie

Very strange, Pickles. When something like that has happened to me in the past, sometimes clearing cache helps, but other times, no matter what I do, certain pages just won't work for like a week or so. I got locked out of spinning the WoK for over a week right around when they added the wheel ads, and though at first I thought it was related to that, I realized it wasn't.

Day 7, Matched 0 - BLB! , 18k

It seems to be 100% tied to the lag. If it lags severely, the week streak resets. If I refresh multiple times, it eventually corrects itself. If it doesn't lag like mad, it seems to be OK.
