Re: Post minor achievements/woes here!

Grr augh blurgh etc. for some reason today I can't log into my main account after having no trouble ever before doing so-- it says that my password is wrong although I'm 100% positive I put it in correctly. And to make matters worse, I can't remember the e-mail I used to sign up for the account! I d...

Re: Post minor achievements/woes here!

Used the NC sale to finish up a pet on a side-- EarthquakeWeather ( or I use the excuse that the Acara has a parasol as a wearable to be a giant nerd about the Amelia Peabody mysteries by Elizabeth Peters)! Also reached level 50 on Habitarium! I'm really enjoying raking in the NPs, although I imagin...

Re: Professor Milton Clodbottle's Astounding Habitarium (Bet

So is it just my imagination, or do the invader bugs get nastier as you level up? I had no problem dispatching them at the lower levels, but I hit level 30 earlier this week, and since then, they've started invading in higher numbers and are doing more damage to my resources/buildings/P3s. (the nast...

Has anyone else noticed that the P3s have a new animation for when they're tired? They yawn-- and it's seriously freakin' adorable.

I got a Hissi transmogrification potion from Dr. Sloth while I was playing Pyramids!

Re: New Plot: The Faeries' Ruin

Ugh. I had to do that stinkin' puzzle three times-- the second time, I accidentally clicked on a wrong choice for untangling the tentacles.

And speaking of tentacles, I'm kinda surprised Neopets, uh, went there.

Re: New Plot: The Faeries' Ruin

The Brutes aren't actually too bad to start out-- although I've gotten to the point where both they and the Minions have about the same HP (~60), and now I'm having a heck of a time whacking the Brutes, even though I can normally take down higher HP 1-player opponents with no problems. I need better...

Re: New Plot: The Faeries' Ruin

Are they weak enough to be sockable with no stats and some kindly lent gear? So far, yup! The one opponent that's up right now starts out with 8 hp. It does mostly earth and fire based attacks, and is easily defended against with the 1-2 combo of Scarab Ring and Leaf Shield. It seems to be a bit we...

Re: Jelly and Relic Grarrls

The yellow reflection on the Jelly Grarrl's eye makes it look like some kind of wobbly demon dinosaur-- which is great, if that's your bag.

Re: New Plot: The Faeries' Ruin

I am crossing all available appendages that this will end up being a fun (and maybe even moderately challenging?! I have fond memories of sweating over the Tale of Woe chemistry puzzle) plot.

Plus, Xandra is my new favorite character on the site-- I can't dislike a grumpy librarian!

Re: Speckled & Desert JubJub's

On a related note, is there a stereotype involving the dutch and baked bread? My only experience with dutch baked goods involved almond paste and whipped cream. Not to my knowledge? I had a squint at the image--as I thought they could be cheese wheels, which are a Dutch stereotype--and those defini...

Re: New loyal user perk

JellyNeo has the details:

http://www.jellyneo.net/index.php?comments=5096

Basically, it's a shop in Neovia with random items, some of which may be of a high rarity/value. Access is reported to be limited to accounts older than 3 years.

I want an Aisha that looks like the shopkeeper SO badly.

Re: Fountain Faerie sighting!!

I ended up spending a chunk of change and doing this for now: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v668/onherwings/royalgirl.png I was getting a little tired of the lack of versatility the faerie Peophins have for customization, and I figure if I ever decide to change her back, I'll use the FF paint jo...

Fountain Faerie sighting!!
