Or you risk a glitch problem, or site downtime...

#1 Start an Illusen or Jhudora quest
#2 Transfer items from inventory to/from tranding/SDB/Auctions.
#3 Transfer np's to or from bank

I tell ya, these midnight problems seem to happen too often lately, and the lag is insane.

Anyone else think of anything?

1) Leave a loaded gun by the monitor (you might be tempted to go bird hunting)

2) Leave a portable propane grill by the monitor (you might be in the mood for poultry)

3) Leave a hammer by the monitor (Jpg files are not squishy. They shatter. Especially when they are displayed on a screen.)

Now I certainly agree that the midnight glitches are just plain poo, but it would be nice to spread them out a little

Being as its the exact time i'd be playing neo quite a bit, i think they should move these glitches so it annoyed more timezones :evil:

Edit: *off topic*, kimberly, is that the hippo off that 92.9 advert?

lol jxpop,

*places hammer by monitor and digs out camping stove* i'll bring the marshmallows

and playing games at the time when it ticks over isn't a good idea, and the servers might glitch and think you are playing a score twice, and freeze you for cheating on flash games

fftopic: and zorg, it does look like it

*does the hippo dance to the shake it song* lol, i love that ad

Good one, Lord Nword. Same here--lucky for me that it's 2 am when a new day begins in Neopia---after hearing this, I will remember to never leave a bid on a trade overnight. It would be just my luck to have the person accept exactly at midnight NST.

But, I have had my share of glitches hit at any time of day--particularly when that snowager is asleep.

1: Go to the General Chat Board (when it existed)
2: Go to the Newbie Chat Board

what you shouldn't do is fall for scams. at 3 am here, i'll be too drowsy to tell anything so i'll probably fall for a fake login or something dumb like that. the next morning, i'll be like, crud, what did i just do. like hung-over from neopets

OK, you can tell I am out of it today. I just got the joke --as in "Fly away, little red birdie, fly away."

A hungry cat sleeping on top of the monitor might do the trick too.

1. Play Flash and/or Shockwave games (because of the 12am NST reset)

2. Be Asleep (Seriously, it's 8 in the morning here in the UK when it is 12am in Neopia)

Me... I should not be playing neopets then in the first place. I should be driving to work

Although... if I go early I can have a bash on neo for a little while
