[Siniri]

I was scratching a couple of scratchcards hoping to get enough NP to buy a zed codestone when I got this RE! Woohoo! Now I can complete my training and deposit the day's extra NP instead of having to dip into savings.

You hear a loud explosion before Zed Codestone falls out of the sky and into your lap.

Edit: Just won 20,000 NP at buried treasure here!

Found 1 Dubloon here
Interesting... It is not close to Siniri's Find.

ETA: 10K at the Forgotten Shore (and 1,452 from TDMBGPOP)

ETA2: Found a Pirate Draik Egg at the Forgotten Shore

ETA3: Cry/Gloat -

Darn. Well, you win some, you lose some.

The Pant Devil appears and steals your Blue Short Hair Brush!

I had so much more valuable stuff in my inventory, including a Scrambled Rainbow Negg. Hah hah, Mr. Pant Devil!

3/6/25 ETA: Found 2k at buried treasure here: https://www.neopets.com/pirates/buriedt ... ml?112,183
Also won 5k and a Puppyblew at the Fruit Machine

Congratulations!

[Siniri]

Cry: I have two of each red codestone, so of course my first training asked for three kews. Time to do some dailies... Need a few more NP to buy it, so let's finish some daily quests....

Gloat: Customizing my pet will give me the needed codestone. Woohoo!

Edit: saw a What What What Stick at the Money Tree. The name compelled me to nab it, which I did successfully, to find out what what what it is.

The What What What stick has an extending arm and a magnet at the end for those times you just dont feel like getting out of your seat for your favourite Magnetic items.

Handy! It's an R99 toy.

Gloat: At the Wheel of Knowledge... "Congratulations! Not everyone is as lucky as you. You found an avatar! Yay!"





ETA:
Gloat: Found 20k at buried treasure here: https://www.neopets.com/pirates/buriedt ... ml?365,143

[Siniri]

Gloat: I discovered my bank interest got reset when I saw a complimentary toaster in my inventory.

Cry: I forgot to collect the extra interest because I was focused on doing my dailies.

Gloat: I remembered again when I went to deposit my extra NP before signing off for the night.

Cry: BEFORE I made the deposit (it was a happy cry)

[Blue]

Cry: The pant devil attacks! He jumps into your inventory and steals your Origami Pop-Up Book. CURSES!!!

Dang. Looks like the Pant Devil attacks have been fixed

ETA:
Gloat: Picked up a Pirate Krawk Morphing Potion at the forgotten shore

[Siniri]

Gloat: 5k here https://www.neopets.com/pirates/buriedt ... ml?206,235

[Blue]

Cry: found nothing there

[Siniri]

Cry: checked in on Tarla to see if she was in today before opening the spreadsheet, and she was on her way out

Gloat: got a retired petpet (a Flightning Bug) in the drop! I didn't know that was possible.

Cry: fell asleep starting dailies yesterday, and though I woke up three times before midnight NST, I wasn't able to actually do anything before falling back asleep each time, so Trudy and Quest Log (both just past the middle) were reset, and I even missed my daily quest.

Edit: 20k here at Buried Treasure: https://www.neopets.com/pirates/buriedt ... ml?178,268

Edit: gloat: I remembered to collect my birthday cupcake for Rosie!

Cry: I didn't actually get the cupcake. Apparently I can try again later, but the pop-up isn't appearing anymore.

Edit: never did get the cupcake. *Sigh*

Oh, well. New day.

Gloat: You've done it! King Skarl is in hysterics!

King Skarl Says:
*heheheheheHU-COUGH COUGH COUGH* Now, that’s a joke! I give it a 8** out of 1000.
You really had me wheezing there! Here, accept this gift as a token of my gratitude for bringing this grumpy grey king a bit of cheer today.


King Skarl hands you:

Exotic Fruits Pie

He also gives you 113 Neopoints!

Cry: since it's the end of the month, it's only a few days of extra 3rd place NP, and I already have gold for both kings. Not much of a cry, because it's still very nice.

P.S. The joke in question was something like: How do you protect streaky bacon from a hungry Skeith? You don't!

Edit: Gloat:: +2 levels at the lab ray today (net is -60)
Cry: +2 levels at the lab ray today (net is -60)

(It bumped me up to 5 reds a smidge early. I'm going to try to remember to zap before I train tomorrow. If I get bonus HP on my current training and either +HP or -level from the lab tomorrow, I might not have too many extra codestones. And I might crack a cookie early if we end up joining Sway.)

Edit: the lab ended up taking away the levels the next day before I had to train, so I never had to overpay!

Gloat: Ooh, shiny new-to-me prize at Grave Danger! Looks like a cool wearable called Poof of Grave Danger. Interesting...

Cry: The description is "And *poof*, just like that, the gift is gone." It's a gift. It could have been nice if it was the danger that had gone (because then it could function like a sympathy card), but it only works as an April Fools gag gift.

I did at least get a chuckle out of it. (Though I still think it would be a cool wearable if it made your pet look like they're disappearing.)

[Blue]

Gloat: Ninja Training School:
Congratulations! MyPet now has increased Level!!!
*** SUPER BONUS - You went up 3 points!! ***

ETA: Received the "It's raining... Mortogs?" Random Event! Gloat.

[Siniri]

Just won 20k here https://www.neopets.com/pirates/buriedt ... ml?177,261

And less than 48 hours, another 20k here: https://www.neopets.com/pirates/buriedt ... ml?173,224

The treasure is very close! (It's the little lake area).

Edit 1 month+ later: I finally got HP from the WoExtra! Only 5, but that's 25 red codestones saved, or 903,750. Probably about what I've spent on it, but I've also won a few map pieces and nerkmids, and the saved training time is nice, especially since I've taken a break from cookies for the last week and missed a few trainings. Only 195 trainings away from max codestones (i.e., scratchcard and potion bonanza time).

[Blue]

I had not spun the WoExtra in a while. Why not...

Gloat: Won 100,001 NP on the WoExtra! Woo Hoo!

[Siniri]

Gloat: got a +6 training bonus today! I didn't even know one that high was possible.

Cry: it was level and took me only 6 away from the next codestone training block, while my HP is still 30 away! Thankfully I'm only 3 days from finishing this cookie, and I can always pause the lab if needed... Just crossing my fingers it's not.

Why couldn't the +6 have been on any of the HP trainings I've done the last few days, including the three before this one and the one after? Maybe I'll get another one on my current training! *fingers crossed*

Edit:
Gloat: Got a bonus stat from the battle faerie while buying a mag codestone for training...
Cry: of course it was level! Only 3 away from the next training cost...
Second gloat: but HP is only 13 away, too... Getting there. One more week, maybe less!

Edit:
Gloat: +5 HP from the lab
No cry, but I will have to train level next (after the current HP training ends). I'll take whatever bonus for HP, but please only +1 to +2 for level...

Edit:
Gloat: another +5 HP from the lab, and my battle pet is officially ready for the highest training tier at 2251 HP! I zapped after I started a training, so I'll have to wait until tomorrow to officially hit it (level is 248), and then I can scratch some cards and be ready for the next double potion boon opportunity to rapidly raise HP and level even more. Woohoo!
