I'd always love to see a random 1-out-of-every-1,000-users giveaway of something more expensive. A random Paint Brush, a Draik Egg, a H4000 Helmet, something like that.
But more realistically...I like it when they give out disappearing items like books and food. Clothes and back-to-school items are yech.
Even of something more expensive, I wouldn't like to see things up in the price range of Draik Eggs. Some of us Draik owners would be quite upset if suddenly a few thousand more of us appeared. XD;
I know you didn't mean that exactly =p Maybe a few random of the more 'normal' paintbrushes, like pink, orange, strawberry, skunk, etc, and things that are expensive, but not so much so. Like rarer petpets and such. But then lots of people would go 'omg that's unfair I didn't get anything, just this crappy tshirt!'

Ohh ohh! Give out Eraser of the Dark Faeries! That'd be hilarious, nobody would 2P battle for months...

I'd love it if whoever gets the sidebar first takes screen shots of their inventory, points on hand, pets and petpets etc so we have a clue as to what they were doing or had and such so we can try to assemble it as I aint going to the advent ont he final day till I got a better clue, will send husband in first this time hehe

I'm going to sent a mail to the Editorial on the last week of November, begging for a sidebar clue. I'm afraid we'd need to do something over the course of the month. Anyway, AC petpets are always cute, and I'd like a t-shirt for my gallery.

I wish I'd done that last year. I might still have the screenshot of the page I got the RE on, but it's on a comptuer on the other side of the country at the moment. I'd try it again on a side for you guys if it weren't against site policy.

So...I ask again...what was given out last year?

Hey! Thanks, eh! So basically, it's mostly junk items with the occasional good item. I noticed that there was more than one item for each day. Do you have to check it more than once a day?

You only have to check the Advent Calendar once every day. You'll usually get 2 presents and some neopoints.
On another note, I hope that TNT is looking at this thread for future ideas. I think some of the ideas here are great!

I'm probably the only one, but I'm hoping for furniture. Preferrably not Christmas themed. I really like Neohomes, like in the Neohome spotlight, but I'm too cheap to buy much for mine. Just enough basics to seem cozy for my pets: bed, desk, lamp, rug etc. Advent = cheap. Cheap = good!
I wouldn't complain about (decent) weapons and codestones though.
Clothes/food/plushies/petpets/PBs are pretty much all the same to me... I just sell 'em.

I like to invent items, so maybe they might make something like this.
Grundo Fun Dough- This fun dough toy comes in a grundo shaped container.
Slothy Coffee: Strong, thick, and very hot, just the way Sloth likes it.
Wocky Talkie: You can talk to other pets all around neopia if you have one of these.
Won Tonus: These spicy little vegetarian won tons are shaped like Tonu horns.
Wasabi Christmas Snack mix: Dried peas coated with Wasabi powder and little red rice crackers make an addicting snack for wasabi lovers.
(I really really really want a neopet version of this, because I became addicted to it after trying it. Wasabi is so good.)
Krawk Wok: All the meats and veggies krawks love, stir fried together in a mildly spicey sauce.
Seafoam Candy: This bubbly candy is fun to eat, even underwater.
Seafoam Pudding: A Maraquan treat, this fluffy green stuff looks like seafoam, but tastes very much like pistachio.
Peppermint Candied Apple: A sweet red apple covered in white chocolate with peppermint peices. The stick part is a peppermint stick, so you can eat the whole thing!
Pretzel Candied Apple: A tart green candied apple covered in chocolate. The stick part is actually a big pretzel stick, so you can eat the whole thing!
Leaches and cream: Only the best leaches and finest cream are used, if that makes you feel better.
Macaroni and fleas: Pretend the little black flecks are pepper.
Violet Shake: A new flavor of shake from Illusen, this one is made with candied violets.
Laughing Tombola Man Plushie: We don't know what is so funny, but his laughter is contagious.
Two Front Fangs: If all you want are your two front fangs, this gift might be just what you need.
Spiked Punch Bowl: This punch bowl filled with purple punch has spikes all around the edges.
(This would be a darigan item)
Christmas Watermelon: These were an unexpected harvest this year on Mystery Island, but it is just perfect for those who crave fruits in the winter.
Minty melt and gones: These candies just melt in your mouth.
(I think Mint melt aways are copyrighted, but maybe not. I just love them!)
Pecan Pie: All pie lovers will tell you that Pecan pie is the best pie there is!
Spicy Roasted Pecans: Once you tast them, you can't help reaching for more.
Honey Roasted Pecans: These are so good they are gone before you know it. Better buy extra.
Sweet Potato Pie with whipped cream: I just love sweet potato pie during the holidays. If you are going to have some, be sure to add some whipped cream.
Candied sweet potatoes: Sweet potatoes all baked up with cinnimon, sugar, and butter. The ooey gooey marshmallow topping is the best!
Meat-Filled Pinata: This Pinata is shaped like a leg of ham and filled with lots of meaty treats for your meat loving pet.
Christmas Symol Plushie: It is so cute, look at the little hat.
Feepit earmuffs: Now your pet can have fluffy ears like a feepit.
Christmas Feepit Plushie: Aww, it is so fluffy and cute.
Figgy Pudding: Oh bring us a figgy pudding and bring one right now!
Snow Turkey: The shape of a turkey with none of the annoying meat flavor.
Carved Turkey: For pets who like to eat wood.
Turkey of the sea: They say this mollusk tastes just like turkey.
Web Wrapped Turkey: Looks like a spyder has wrapped up this turkey.
Jelly Turkey: A huge turkey shaped jelly that tastes like cranberry sauce, how confusing.
Turkey-on-a-stick: This turkey cooked tyrannian style!
Cloud Turkey: This is a turkey shaped cloud plucked from the skys of faerie land.
Marrow Turkey: I don't know how they managed to grow this marrow into the shape of a turkey.
Stamp Stamp Stamp Stamp: This is a stamp with a picture of a picture of a picture of a stamp. You get dizzy just looking at it.
Gross food:
Clamberry Sauce: Did you say cranberry sauce....?
Christmas Mootix Plushie: This little plushie's smile is sure to put you in a festive mood.
Caroling Mootix Plushie: If you listen closely, he will hum you a song.
Spyder garland: This is special garland spun by spyders.

I wish I had that animation; does anyone have a link to that? If so, thanks

It wasn't Nabile, but it was still funny nonetheless.
Sat Nov 18, 2006 7:33 pm
Oh wow thanks IcyBlue

*whacks head for not remembering who Tomos was trying to kiss*

I only really go to the AC to see the animations, I was really disappointed last year because my computer was on the fritz and I had to use a library computer that had flash animations blocked
I do lurv plushies though. They're so nifty!
