What makes everyone so sure that the green apple thing is a glitch?

I'm surprised that we haven't gotten any backgrounds yet...

A green apple is item #1. Whenever an item giving code is mucked up, it seems to revert to giving green apples. I remember the cove had a tantrum one day, and resulted in very expensive apples. My bet is something went wrong on one of the servers, or with one of the username databases and it reverted to apples

Also in 2005 there was a Green Apple glitch with TCG's - if you tried removing them from shop, SDB etc they turned into Green Apples - an old thread here has the topic.

The simplest explanation is usually the correct one.

I see no reason for TNT to deliberately give out Green Apples and continue to do it now for 4 days.

TNT always have reasons behind the things they do and the Green Apples seem to have no reason.

Argh, green apples

People at the boards are all saying today's event was a real lame one and a let down.


For everyone who thought today's advent was lame, remember the staff will not all be back until Wednesday. If they released anything really good, but had a glitch with it, then no one would be around to fix it. They will probably release the best stuff later, when everyone is around to appreciate it and to fix any problems that might arise.

That would be a great explanation.. but it never used to be that way. I remember when I got my Christmas Petpet Paint Brush on Christmas Day. Today was such a let down.

Man I didn't get green apples, but I'm sorry to everyone who did.

I have also wondered if customisation will eventually have sound - when I saw the Lenny Dancer Music Box I thought how nice music would have sounded.

I pray to all the gods that have ever existed that never happens. XD
(sorry, I just really hate music or sounds of any kind on websites)

Well, I'm not thrilled with today's prizes or animation. But I kinda liked the kacheek. He looked a bit embarrassed to be there, hehe.

You find 920 Neopoints!!!

You find a Grarrl Nutcracker!!!

You also find a Basket of Peanuts!!!

The Grarrl Nutcracker is a wearable and supposedly a toy, but you can't play with it.
The basket of peanuts looks more like a basket of sunflower seeds or pecans.

[Xerophyte]

I just love the look on that Grarrls face when it takes a bite out of the table. xD

If I knew how to, I'd totally make an avatar for myself out of that clip.

[Arka]

That look just as he opens his mouth is great!

I wonder what kind of nuts are actually pictured... Brazil nuts, maybe?

Back to the music discussion, I don't like music on any page I try to load. I already have a slow dial up, and when there is music, even if it doesn't completely load, it slows down the loading of the page so much that I usually have to give up on loading that page. It isn't a matter of seeing that there is music loading and stopping the page to avoid the music. Not enough of the page loads to see anything until the music is loaded.

[smudgeoffudge]

That is SO NOT a basket of peanuts. Basket of almonds maybe, but on my corner of Earth, peanuts don't have pointy ends like that.

I just love that little grarrl nutcracker. It looks cute as a trinket. I was thinking our pets could hold it, which would have been nice too, but at least my baby pet can wear it.

I hope they eventually come out with a set of nutcracker clothing, It would be really cute. Although I wouldn't use the mouth piece part. I'd just like the suit and hat and shoes.

Definetely. Brazil. Nutz.

[Pickles]

Loved the animation today! And definitely loving the Nutcracker!
I've been lucky enough not to be plagued with the horrid green apples yet. Hopefully now that TNT should be back in the office, it won't happen anymore.

I didn't know you people still existed :o

I kid, I kid.

LOL! Yeah. Too rural here, and Satellite isn't something I want to try. I hope eventually that the phone company will come through with Internet service for us.

At least Neopets and PPT don't take too long to load. The Advent Calendar, for example, loads in about 5-10 minutes.

I love my pets in the wearables we have received from the AC.
