Pink Poogle Toy Forum

The shop wiz looks normal but when you search for something and click to take you to the person's shop to buy it, it sends you to your shop instead.

And the buddy doesn't do much other than occasionally pop up on your screen giving you some "advice."

edit: Bug eye just told me twice to "get away" from him and that he's glad he's not one of my neopets and he keeps getting bigger as well.

Has anybody get him as your neobuddy? The HC is filling up with this topic.

Yep. Got him here as well.
It IS April first today so I was expecting something like that.
....wanted Princess Amira....

Yep go him. He's awesome. I just choose random answers though and ended up with him.

It's not an April Fools joke. It's Neopets gone wild.

Lame. At least some of Bug-Eye Magee's quotes are mildly amusing. And at least it's not a true pop-up; you can click on anything the picture doesn't cover. But it's getting really annoying trying to do my dailies.

I don't think you really actually ever got charged in Neocharge -- I thought it took you to a page where they said April Fools when you went to pay (I'm not sure though -- it's been a while -- at least that's what I expected when I clicked to pay to see how they continued the joke).

AAAACCK I fell for it! I forgot it was april fools! LOL



Although, the technology used to make the little pop ups and such might be put to use later on in the game. Maybe this event is being used to test the pop ups for another reason?

hee hee... lets make it three. I got him too.

I think everyone gets him... He was tied with Sloth for me though (84%)

Yeaaaah I keep forgetting that its April Fools Day too.

BugEyed Mc-I-Hate-You-because-your-so-annoying.

nuff said.

other than that everything is working normally for me... i just bought something from the shop wiz and its all good

Everyone got bugeye. I happen to like him. Makes me feel noticed.

No all did. I heard a minor group of people got someone else during my surf on the HC. I wish there was a way to get rid of him. He's being really annoying right now because he keeps stalking me, either shrieking how he had enough of me or giving me useless tips.

EDIT: Found out that the other buddy is Sir Fufon Lui

Heh. Did you know that "neobuddy" is blocked on the boards? I peeked in to see if anyone was going nuts, and discovered that.

Does the joke have any effect on premium users? I took the quiz and have been doing all my dailies and I haven't got a single popup.

'cording to the boards, you should be able to see it. It won't happen *all* the time though.
