News for Wednesday July 12, 2006

#1 Post by hawtie »

Today we are going to start off with a new batch of Grarrl-themed Fun Images!





There is a new random event that will start showing up on the site starting today!

Something has happened!
A rather dashing Chia drops by and hands you: Starry Droolik Cap. What a nice fellow! You should put it on to show your thanks.




Fruit enthusiasts may want to take a look at the latest Site Spotlight - Fruits!


This week's PPL award has been given to the Drackobunny. Well done _Amakusa_, Buntrella, Scrags, Ooogli, and all the others.





Keep a watchful eye if you go against Garin in the new Better Than You...


Get ready to bounce because the Garden Centre just brought out four more trampolines!





A new Lenny Conundrum competition has begun. The answer to last week's was 9635 square millimetres. 907 people guessed the correct answer earning themselves 2206 NP each.


You can now decorate your desktop with the new Funny Face Tiled Background.





There are four new Gift Tags available to attach to your gifts.


A big "Congrats!" to joonlui for winning the Pirate Cave Of The Week award!


The Super Happy Fun Snow Shop has four new icy Tuskaninny-themed treats for your Neopet to enjoy!





Can you get the meals back from the bully in the new sponsor game Kid Cuisine: Bully Bubble Pop?





Lastly, if you haven't yet, make sure to put in your predictions for the best and worst of the Altador Cup! If you're right, you'll win yourself an extra prize! Submissions will close on 13th July at Noon NST.

And to keep you updated on prizes, we're still calculating everyone's individual scores and will hopefully be ready to hand out prizes early next week. *fingers crossed* There were were millions and millions of games played, so we're checking and rechecking scores to make sure everyone will get their proper prizes! Thanks for being patient. :)

For some odd reason the image of the new random event reminds me of the Happy Mask Man from Legend of Zelda.

But thanks to ppt with the unreleased thread i knew of the secret cooking pot and i thought if i created one now for sure i'll be one of the first people to have one and attached it to my pet which i did, and for sure i've been getting my doubts about winning but wow finally i won.=D

Blech, another Chia. As if the one that doesn't look like Adee but has the same name isn't annoying enough.

AC prizes? I don't care about the stinkin' AC, I want plot prizes!

But that sounds like the prizes for the Altador Cup, not our beloved plot.
Signature, eh? We'll see about that...

Main reason for losing marks - misreading the question! :oops:

I always assumed they'd be released together, but probably won't be the case ;)

I agree - we want our plot prizes!
