Not sure what that means, but cool, I guess? I'm glad they're doing stuff and trying to let us know what to expect.

From what I understand, this is the new way of "unconverting" your pets. The AMAs made it sound like it will be a wearable item that goes in your closet that you can put on or take off, effectively letting you unconvert or convert whenever you want in customization. Keep in mind...I'm not positive that this is how it will work, this is just how I've understood it to this point. I've kinda slept since the AMA that touched on it.

ETA:
Maintenance has been given a time window. Plan your dailies accordingly!

Thank you for your patience and anticipation, we can’t wait to reveal what we’ve been working on!

Thanks! I typically do my dailies around noon NST, so as long as things go to schedule, I should be good.

Dear Neopians,

The community has been buzzing with excitement following the announcement of NC Pet Styles launching on January 23rd (01/23), 2024, 10:00 AM NST. Since there seems to be confusion and questions surrounding the release, we'd like to clarify a few things the best we can!

We understand reservations and concerns with such a big change, however this is a catalyst for positive growth and a brighter future for Neopia in so many ways. We hope we can all come together to embrace this improvement, adapt and move forward.

We hope you're as excited as we are!

~ The Neopets Team

P.S. Keep your eyes peeled for a special discount on launch day!

Don't forget that the site will be down January 22nd 11PM PST and will come back up January 23rd, at 10AM PST.

I guess we'll see how this goes. Mr. P took lots of screenshots of his UC pet just to make sure he had it in case something goes wrong and he has to put in a ticket. I remember being jealous that he had the option to not convert at least one of his pets. (Okay, I am still a little jealous he had the option, NGL

).

Thanks for the reminder, P! Today was an "unusual" day in that I could not do my dailies at my usual time. Fortunately, I was able to get them all done just now, well in advance of the site downtime. If they stick to their timeframe, I should be good for my usual dailies time tomorrow.

I have seen a lot of hubbub and furor over the whole UC thing. Not 100% sure I care, or if will even affect me at all. We shall see what tomorrow brings. (It will not be my needed car parts because they are stuck at the FedEx hub in Memphis. They were supposed to be here today, but now it *might* be Thursday. Ugh)

Siniri · **Posted:** Tue Jan 23, 2024 8:00 pm

The site is still down for me. Hopefully it will come back soon!

Still down at 3pm NST

Something is happening...

An angry red Pteri flies past you, trying to scare away some pesky Meepits that have found their way into the Maintenance Tunnels.

The wires they are chewing on look pretty important...

Sparks start flying from the exposed pieces... Oh no! This looks dangerous and might take a while to fix, why don't you check back later?

I would never want one, but those Meepits sure are cute.

ETA: ~5pm NST - Site seems to be up, albeit laggy.

Quest Log does not appear to have reset.

Siniri · **Posted:** Wed Jan 24, 2024 1:10 am

It's finally back up!

But it's very laggy, so I recommend not trying to do anything with too big a potential consequence if it glitches.

Blue · **Posted:** Wed Jan 24, 2024 1:36 am

Also getting a lot of these:

...and again the Red Pteri around 5:20pm NST.

...and it's back. With more lag.

Dailies are taking forever. And I don't think my Trudy spin is going to take today.

Pickles · **Posted:** Wed Jan 24, 2024 3:06 am

We are struggling our way through dailies. Eeeesh. Took FOREVER, but I got all the quests done and managed to get Trudy to spin. I'm not sure I'll bother with any other dailies today. Except maybe the lab ray. Because....lab ray.

Siniri · **Posted:** Wed Jan 24, 2024 3:39 am

I just finished my quests. I can't get Trudy to load on my phone, and I can't get past the birthday screen on my computer to log in because of the lag... I really don't want to be reset so close to the 100k, so I'm going to keep trying.

Blue · **Posted:** Wed Jan 24, 2024 7:42 am

Site working much better now (~11:30pm NST)

Pickles · **Posted:** Sat Jan 27, 2024 12:17 am

New avvie celebrating the 1000th issue of the Neopian Times. Visit the 1000th Issue to get it. I'd suggest reading the editorial while you're there - there's a few bits that are interesting.

Also, there's a new site theme for everyone based around the Neopian Times, as well.

Blue · **Posted:** Sat Jan 27, 2024 1:37 am

Awesome! New Avvie! Thanks Pickles!

I almost asked "how do we get the theme", but it's already an option to choose. I set it as my current theme for now, but it's kinda busy.

Also made me realize that the "new" site pages use a different theme than the "old" site pages.

ETA: ...which I should have realized since the settings for each are right next to each other on the settings page... :wall:
