3-5K a day total from the two games I play (word poker and koujong.) Not fast enough for games that involve dexterity, and computer too slow for restocking.

Impossible to say, since my main source of income is the stock market, which tends to produce big whacks of NP at one time with large droughts in between.

In periods when I'm actively trying to make NP I guess I might try for a minimum of 15k a day to cover my stock purchase, sometimes more, sometimes more like 12k. Other times I go through phases when I do nothing but my dailies and I obviously get much less.

It would be interesting to sit down and play games on Neo for an hour and see how much I can make. Maybe I'll do that sometime this weekend.

I decided to see what I make while playing on an average weekend day. I played about 6 hours worth of Neo.

My day was mainly filled with NQII - (was stuck on Faeries, now stuck on Hubrid Nox).

I made 15,086 nps just going about my average day on Neo:

WC - 1019 nps (nps from 1st three games were collected yesterday).
NQII - 1000 nps (beating those darn Faeries)
Shop Till - 13067 nps (about 60 small items sold).

As you can see - I spent quite a lot of time on line but didn't really make a lot of nps, but on the other hand - I didn't have to try and 'earn' these nps - they were just the outcome of an average day.

I didn't play any games except for SaS for WC and NQ II. I could add about another 9,000 nps to that by playing my favourite 3 games.

I make about 20K a day playing games, and that's it. I can't restock for beans, and I haven't been brave enough to try the stock market yet.

I think I'm doing really well with a couple million in the bank... until I compare myself to everyone else. :oops:

I probably earn anywhere from 0 NP to 50,000 NP on any given day. It depends on how much time I actually have to play and if Neo is being glitchy or not. Weekends are usually more profitable as I have more time to spend on Neo.

I'm probably in negative NP per day now, hehe. My stocks keep dropping.

Nada. Zilch. Zero. Nothing.

Like some, I make nearly all my money off the stock market. It takes up very little time - I have a notepad with a list of all the stocks and the maximum I've seen them at. I update this list maybe once a week.

It's more of a "been there, done that" thing. The games I used to play daily bore me now - same old routine gets to me. I play them on occasion for fun, not NP.
Also, I have too much NP for it to make a difference. With the time I have now, maybe I could make 50k a week through games - which is nice and would get me somewhere fast, but it's not worth it if it bores me. It's what it looks like daily that makes me decide. Half an hour for 3000 np (assuming it's a game I enjoy)? I could've just sold a stock for thrice that. *Shrugs*

The other way it goes up is through plots - I always love doing those and watching my numbers rise. ^-^ Sell whatever I get unless I really, really like it.

I like having lots of money, but now I'm quite happy to chuck it around. ^_^

I can make 31.3k playing games for an hour on Neo, apparently. I'd probably make more if I did it regularly and knew for sure what gave the most NP per unit time, as opposed to just winging it based on "This is pretty fast, seems to pay out well, and doesn't drive me insane playing it."

I'd probably have picked up a few hundred more if one of my cats hadn't been patting my knees for attention while I was playing Mootix Drop.

It was an interesting exercise but I think I'll stick to stocks. :-)

When I was on ALL the time, I could make over 100k a day. I have given up restocking entirely. I used to restock for hours! (when I was unemployed). Now that I have reached my NP goal, I have no more desire to restock. Now the only NP I make in a day are from my freebies.

It truly depends how much effort I want to put into making nps. Other times, if I just win a codestone or a faerie from Tombola or another free game, I sell it and get some extra np's. Usually I'll get two or three in a week or two. *shrugs*
