I didn't send in a bug report and I got my prize. So it's just a matter of waiting if you haven't gotten it yet.

Re: Awesome advent calendar style prizes! Get them NAO.
I haven't send in a bug report though I am still patiently waiting for a neomail from TNT regarding my Rosie prize as I visited Rosie every day including the days when she was glitched. My username begins with the letter P so if TNT are awarding the prize which glitched on the last day to everyone then it will most likely be a while before I see the neomail.

Re: Awesome advent calendar style prizes! Get them NAO.
My username starts with a, and I still haven't gotten my neomail. I'm gonna wait until tomorrow, but if I don't get something by then, I'm sending in a bug report.

Re: Awesome advent calendar style prizes! Get them NAO.
You realise this is about the Springtime thing right? I can't get NC either (no credit card). I was lucky enough to have been given some NC gifts though, and for the fact people are able to do that, I'm happy as happy as (although it would be nice if paypal users got boxes too).Katbody10 wrote: Well... that's the idea... IT WAS FREE for something that usually costs CASH MONEY. There are lots of kids/teens not old enough to have a job yet and otherwise have to beg their parents for money to buy the NC cash cards or have their parents buy those cards. This site started as a kid's site, but adults got into it and excited about the safe environment as well being pretty fun! I being one of those parents myself! I've been on Neopets for over 5 years now... my son is almost 15 now, he discovered this site through some friends of his when he was 9. He gets a very small allowance to work with, so anything to be bought comes from me, in general.
...
As far as the site I don't pay for any of it so I'm not sure what your point is. Had it been a premium issue I'd understand but it isn't. The NC Mall appears to be in working order.
Anyway, all we can do is wait. In previous glitches TNT wouldn't have even bothered posting a message about it on the news. The folk who didn't get DD prizes last year have every reason to gripe, but us for not getting out little springtime celebration, we can't really talk. It's not like they forgot about it either, it was on the Easter weekend when many people are off spending time with family, as it should be.
I'll be sending no bug report. I'll just let them get on with their jobs, my little flowers can wait!
Lols @ the pink poogle. I remember when they did that. =P

Re: Awesome advent calendar style prizes! Get them NAO.
I'm thinking they've just started sending these out because I haven't seen anyone talking about it yet.Hi butterfly_girl_22
Thank you for participating in our Springtime Celebration event! Due to a glitch, some users did not receive their bonus prize. We have identified you as having qualified for the bonus prize, even though it was not granted to you during the event. We have added this item, a Negg Hat, to your Inventory. We apologise for any inconvenience.
Regards,
The Neopets Team
Re: Awesome advent calendar style prizes! Get them NAO.
I haven't even recieved my first neomail, let alone the bonus prize one, which does not make me happy. I sent in a bug report about it two days ago, and since I have yet to recieve a form reply back I'm hopeful that they either have not seen the report yet, or are working on the problem now. I studiously collected every day's prize, so I'm going to be rather displeased if I don't get the last day's prize and bonus prize.

Re: Awesome advent calendar style prizes! Get them NAO.
I haven't gotten any neomails, and to be honest I'm not even sure if I should be getting one because it's been a while and I don't remember if I collected every day. I think I did, and I don't remember if there was an option to collect on the last day with the glitch (or a way to indicate that you tried...). I don't really care, I don't really want the prizes, and I didn't really do anything difficult to earn them. So, whatever!

QFT. I just got my first neomail yesterday, though, so I think they're just being slow. Not sure what the last couple of items were, but I throw everything in my SDB, and the last thing there is the carousel negg. My storage shed has the delicate enamel negg. Nothing in my closet, so I'm assuming I haven't received the last two prizes yet. It's okay; they'd just gather dust. I have no real goals in Neopia any more, anyway.metalmario wrote:I don't really care, I don't really want the prizes, and I didn't really do anything difficult to earn them. So, whatever!

Blue graffitied on my signature... But it made me laugh, so it's all good!

Re: Awesome advent calendar style prizes! Get them NAO.
I haven't got either Neomails or either of my Prizes yet... I've sent a couple of Editorial Queries about it in but I never saw the point in sending in a Bug Report as in the past I've either got no response or an automated one. -disillusioned- I'm rather annoyed although I probably shouldn't be. (My username starts with 'p' by the way but I don't think that has anything to do with it as I was at the Money Tree the other day and I saw one of the prizes having been donated by someone whose username starts with 'u'.) I struggle to make it onto the Computer most days... let alone every day for two weeks so I was rather proud that I managed to do it (considering I missed out big chunks in the last Advent Calender and had to do a big catch up on this year's Daily Dare on more than one occasion). -prods- I'm just... disappointed. I don't expect to get either of my Prizes now. Sigh. If they can't do a simple free giveaway properly then I... no, I'm not that disillusioned. 
The only comfort I can take is that I got the TNT Smasher Avatar the other day. -innocent cough- Yay furstration.

Well, I finally got my neomail for the missing prize on the 12th. Still nothing about the bonus prize, but I guess there's hope yet.

Same here. At this point, I can't even remember if I qualified for the bonus prize or not.amarise wrote:Well, I finally got my neomail for the missing prize on the 12th. Still nothing about the bonus prize, but I guess there's hope yet.

Re: Awesome advent calendar style prizes! Get them NAO.
I wonder what system they are using to figure out who participated or not. I just got a Neomail from TNT and was given my prize.
Hi my neoname,
Thank you for participating in our Springtime Celebration event! Unfortunately, there were a few glitches along the way. One of these problems resulted in users not receiving their Sunday 4/12 prizes. We have since resolved the issue and added Sunday's prize, Handpicked Spring Flowers, to your Inventory.
Due to Sunday's glitch, some users did not receive their bonus prize. We are currently working to award the bonus prize to those who qualify and hope to grant this very soon. We apologise for any inconvenience these glitches may have caused you.
Regards,
The Neopets Team

I have yet to receive my Neomail or prize for the 12th
I didn't qualify for the bonus prize, but I'd still like to see my prize for that day. Is it going by alphabetical order?

Re: Awesome advent calendar style prizes! Get them NAO.
My username starts with a P, and I didn't click for the prize on the 12th until later in the day (I think but it's been so long XD)... and I just got my 4/12 prize neomail today... so it looks like they are slowly but surely getting around to people.
I have no idea if I will get the bonus prize as when I tried to click to Rosie for the bonus day... all I could get to is the FAQ, so no idea if it will count.
