Did you know this isn't true ??

[TDG]

Several "Did you Know ?" facts are pure fiction and aren't true at all...

Did you know that Kikoughela is the only disease that has two cures? Kikoughela Drops and Kikoughela Syrup will both take care of this condition. - Mary Taylor

No longer true thanks to the Lost Desert Remedies shop

That the names Flotsam and Jetsam are names of a chaper in The Lord of the Rings by JRR Tolkein? Cathy Taylor

Actually Flotsam and Jetsam are names for shipwrecked debris which is where Neo claims to have gotten the name from

Did you know that the Fuzio, a former available neopet, was turned into a Fuzzle? He looked like a mean ol' Jubjub! - Sora65

Actually the Fuzio was turned into the Kyrii. Fuzzles your to be Flurbies (I think) but were changed to Fuzzles after a lawsuit with Furbies (Need confirmation on the Flurbie thing)

Have you ever looked at the Blue Fuzzy Negg really closely (go to the Neggery, it's bigger there)? Well the 'fuzz' isn't really fuzz at all! They're numbers! - Jennie

Not anymore they're not. The negg was redrawn and the fuzzs became actual fuzz

Did you know that the Asisha was introduced as aliens? - Sora65

Actually the aisha did

I don't have the exact quote but there's one about Kyriis not eating any apple based food when in fact it will merely give them a disease instead of them refusing to eat it

And of course a few new fact ones

Did you know that Achyfi is Welsh for yuck! - the_dog_god

There are random events that can turn your pet Red, Blue, Invisible, Baby or any other random colour (The random colour random event is seperate to the others) - the_dog_god

Find any other ones of these to discuss ? Post 'em here

wow you must really miss IDB XD

[TDG]

You better believe it

[Jasujo]

wow you must really miss IDB XD

Lol! That's too funny. I needed a chuckle this morning. ^.^


Where did you get those quotes to begin with? Is there really an event that will change your pet a random color? I don't think I've heard of that one before.

[Carson]

Actually one of those facts are wrong, Achyfi is not the Welsh word for yuck, Ychafi is the welsh word for yuck.

Trust the welsh man. He knows *nods*

Another one that isnt technically true

Did you know that mynci is Welsh for monkey? Now you know where that cute neopets name came from!

The welsh word for Monkey is actually Mwnci, though that isnt a great deal of difference =:0p

A few "money" making tips are also quite... meh. They seem to be written up in two minutes and not well thought out..

It seems that almost all the "make <amount> in a month" guides just tell you play games!

Guide to Making 1,000,000 nps in 56 Days!

This is a guide to make you rich! But you must averaging good score returns at TONS of the games! This method is also a little time intensive. Without further ado, Here is the guide!

First play Ultimate Bullseye! This is EASY! Score 35 or higher and then send your score! If you get 34 and below, RESTART THE GAME! After you play you should have nearly 800 nps!

Now play Volcano Run. This is a bit tricky! You need to score 1200 each round! So this may-be one tricky one for some people! After you play, you should have nearly 2000 nps!

Then play Usuki Frenzy! This is probobly the simplist one! Score 195 each round! You should get about 290nps each round! After you play you should have nearly 2870 nps!

This is where you may take awhile! Play Scarab 21, Pyramids and Sahkmet Solitaire until you are atleast 10,000 nps richer! OUCH! After you play you should have about 12870nps!

Next, play Chia Bomber! You should be able to score 400 nps per play! After you play you should have 13870 nps!

Now we go and play STOCK MARKET! You should buy 100 shares in a Good Stock market. You should not have much money left over! Buy 100 shares each day for the 4 weeks and you will be rich!

So after the buying of stocks you should have 5000 nps left! When the 4 weeks is up, there should be about 300,000 - 1,000,000 nps depending on how many shares you bought!

Now we go and put that money in the bank!

Lets play more games!

Play Meerca Chase until you get a score of 300 each round! You should make 900 nps! Cash in pocket: 900

Play Chemistry for Beginners! Get 500 each round! Then your Cash in Pocket will be: 2400

Play Chomby and the Fungus Balls. Get 350 points each round! You should get 1050 nps! Cash in Pocket: 3450 nps!

Now go to the bank and take out your 5000 nps! Cash in Pocket: 8450

Try to figure out the mystery picture! You will get 500 more nps! Cash in pocket: 8950

Play Whack a staff member! You must get 600 per round! You will get 900 nps in total for all three plays! Cash in Pocket: 9850

For your last game, play 200m dash! Score 800 per round and you will be done for the day! Cash in pocket : 11000 (approx.)

If you times 11000 by 56 you get 616000. Go back to your stocks. You will notice that they are HUGE numbers (if you have correctly invested in the right stocks! Congrats! You have 1,000,000 nps!

I think this is misleadingone too:

Tip 2: DONATE A LOT!!!!! This increases your chances of winning stuff off the wheel of excitement/mediocrity thats GOOD! for once, and increases the occurrence and quality of your random events! And a tip! If you get something from the money tree, re-donate it. It is getting stuff to donate for free! And also buy lots of worthless Island merchandise and donate that, its a cheap way to land heaps of mula!

This is just common sense:

When There is a restock time go to the Chocolate shop a but any milk chocolate or any other chocolate in there that is shaped likes a pet then sell it. Most Chocolate is worth 1000+ np.

More common sense:

1.) Look for a Nova in the battle magic store. It's about 500 np. Then look for it in the shop wizard. It's about 2,175 np. Hmm...

2.) Look for an Organic Red Apple in the health food store. It can be lowered to 7 np. Then look for it in the shop wizard. It's about 50 np. Hmm...

3.) Omelettes. You get them for free and are selling from 20-200 np.

Even MORE common sense:

My roommate told me that a way to get rich, is to buy and sell books. At first I was doubtful, but then I put it into work, and, let me tell you it does work. But you must be careful not to buy books that people are selling cheaper then the store. You can buy books 400/less and sell them for 600/+.

Buying and selling books works because people want to make their pets smarter. Also because of faerie quests and jobs.

Also, I saw a tip a while ago, and it said something along the lines of:

Buy scratch cards and sell them! The Races to the Riches Scratchcard sells for about 700 neopoints! Create 4 new accounts and thats 3500 neopoints every <timeframe>!!!

I think its removed now...

[DM was on fire!]

Where did you get those quotes to begin with? Is there really an event that will change your pet a random color? I don't think I've heard of that one before.

I think it's the "a stream of water falls down on your pets" random event or something like that.

[TDG]

Heheh - trust Adam to post false Welsh names on Neopets.com

Anyways - the random colour one is really rare but its about a Torrent of Multi-coloured water falls down on <pet>. You hear a mad cackling in the sky

(Or something along those lines )

[o_0]

Something has happened!
A torrent of multi-coloured water falls from the sky and DRENCHES tunaypinoyboy!!! You hear evil cackling from the sky...

They were probably just trying to make it more pronouncable.

[SpiraLethe]

They were probably just trying to make it more pronouncable.

By replacing it with another consonant.

Shh...you weren't supposed to point that out. =P
