Note: I know this was posted in the mc donalds giveaways thread, but that's a general one about mcdonalds giveaways and it has 7+ pages, so I did this one to talk about the... joke.

You also find a Rod of Supernova!!!

... but as you to go pick it up, the Pant Devil appears and runs off with it

Hmm, does this remind me some advent calender joke? I wonder... today is the 13th, but not friday...

Why don't they change it to something else? Why always rod of supernova?

Actually if I recall correctly, this year's advent calendar 'prank' was a Wand of the Dark Faerie, not Rod of Supernova

Could be wrong though

Yup. It's time they came up with something more creative...that prank has become a cliche already!

Just one of the many jokes that neo does.

You know, we should actually get the Pant Devil as a challenger after that :p

It is strange...but kind of funny in a way :lol:

I wonder what people who didn't know it's a joke would've thought when they saw that they 'found' a Rod of Supernova?

Well, I'm just glad I got my wocky plushie :wink:

As usual, i'm sure the neoboards were full of people complaining about the fact. And slowly figuring out that EVERYONE had the item stolen *shrug*

I knew as soon as I saw that that it was a joke. Something they have pulled far too many times...

Well most people who just signed up to Neopets because of this promotion don't know it so they had to pull it someday during this.

I guess I missed it. I didn't get my wocky plushie though. :? But I got my neopoints.

HollyPop · #14 Post by **HollyPop** » Mon Jun 14, 2004 9:24 am

They've done that in at least two, if not three, advent calendars.. I think it's three, seems like they pull it every year.

Does a RoS actually do anything useful?
