::I Almost Got It

Saturday, February 12, 2005

Exploring and playing Neopets games had taken most of my free time lately and tonight, I was so excited when I almost hit the 2144824 Neopoints Jackpot at Black Pawkeet Slots! I knew I would win it because I kept winning 5 jewels, rubies, tankard, and grog but, my connection to Neopets server kept dropping until Shockwave Director had an error and my Mozilla browser crashed.

Black Pawkeet Slots

When I signed up last month, I was given 250 Neopoints (NPs). Neopoints (NP) is the local currency in Neopian World as BlogShares Dollars (B$) is the local currency in BlogShares.

Upon signing, I fed my pet which made her bloated and I didn't know I have to send her to a training school. I went immediately to the Game Room and tried my luck/chance at Scorchy Slots. It costs 5NP for every spin until I burned all my 250NP. Bankrupt, I patiently grabbed anything from the money tree but it someone got the item before me and/or the wandering ghost had taken all the items!

Anyway, Judy, the daughter of Randy, assisted me on how to gain NP. Both Judy, Deb (BS player), and Rose (the wife of Randy) gifted me items which I auctioned few of them and I collected over 200000 NP. I didn't know then it wasn't easy to earn NP. I mishandled my neopoints and burned them all in Bruce B and Black Pawkeet Slots!

Too excited to explore the game, I spinned Wheel of Excitement but got mystery price and my pet had neopox. I visited Faerieland Healing Springs to heal my pet. I also tried my luck with Wheel of Monotony which took about 4 hours spinning before it finally stopped. Guess what I got? A gray stone which hit the health points of my pet down to 3/8! I never spin that wheel ever again.

How to play Neopets? I'm still a newbie until now and can earn neopoints between 10000-15000 NP a day. By playing puzzle and action games, each score has equivalent neopoints and have to send NP to collect it but limited to 3 scores per game daily.

I was upset when my pet got stuck in a Mystery Island Training School. It says I haven't paid yet her Level 3 course and my VO codestone as payment remained there and got stuck too.

Is she out of the island yet? That's really odd...

I'm still waiting for my friend to send me 175K Neopoints in my direction. You seem to be racking up the NP's pretty quickly. I don't think I can do 15000 a day. I tend to stick to 7000 a day, although I've been at it for years already... heh.
