# Meet the Kimbi! These little guys have somehow made their way to Faerieland. Head over to Faerie Petpets to take one a home.

# Symarilliona the Red Wocky is doing her best to impress in the latest Pet Spotlight.

# Protect your Neopet's fur from the harsh weather with one of these new Umbrellas, available now at the Clothes Shop.

# A new Story Telling is beginning right... NOW!

You are henceforth commanded to take your squad and hunt down by any means necessary a certain group of thieves that has become a grave threat to the treasury of our sovereign, His Highness, the King. No names have yet been connected with this condemnable act that the group has planned, but their leader has been described as a blue Gelert of average stature, dressed from head to toe in dark clothing. It is of utmost urgency that you find them all and put a stop to their evil deeds.

# Match the breeds and win NP! It's that easy in this new sponsor game - Nintendogs: Double Dog Matching Activity.

# A tasty selection of new Faerie Food sundaes should hit the spot if you're craving sweets.

# After lots of math that made our heads explode, the Lost Desert Prize Shop is now open for business! Once you're done there, you'll have a nifty trophy on your lookup. Clicking on this trophy (on someone else's lookup or your own) displays a handy list of all the steps completed by that person during the puzzle. Depending on how far you got, this could make you look really cool or just be really, really embarrassing.

# It appears to be raining Kadoaties and Warfs in the latest Caption Contest. Oh my!

# These new books of booktastic quality are now on sale at... well, Booktastic Books, of course.

# For you budding artists, the Ogrin is now available in the How to Draw section!

# Help Mario and friends reach one of 5 exciting locales by answering trivia questions about each location in this new sponsor game - Mario Party 7: Bon Voyage.

Oh good. That had occurred to me, but I was afraid that I'd end up using my points and not get the sidebar just to have TNT come back later and go "Whoops! Forgot to add the sidebar there! Too late for you, but everybody else, go ahead and enjoy it!"

Er, is there any trick to translating the sidebar, or will the names forever be in sanscript(*)?

* I think it's sanscript. o_O

Move your mouse over the sidebar buttons. They should change to something a bit more legible.

Well, until you mouseover them, they are. Is that what you mean?

I started playing on neopets on my friend's account at the beginning of the LDP - I got us as far as the hidden room where you put the useless crystals. Then I started my own account and didn't have the energy to map out my temple of 1k tombs, so I only got 1k points out of it. My friend was nice enough to buy my some of the cheap prizes tho.

I bought the gelatinous non-cube plushie - it fills me with glee! Maybe because it's a purple blob with little appliqued skulls and bones. Maybe because it has the word 'gelatinous' in its name. But whatever the reason - it is full of jelly and GLEE!

Aw darn, 26k short of the final prize.

LAQ · #14 Post by **LAQ** » Tue Jan 31, 2006 4:48 am

Well, it looks like people with no points don't get the sidebar. :oops:

Ah well, makes me think I should have at least done something in the silly temple.

I was only 700 points short, much like many other people.
