*pfft* Everyone got a copy of it. It can't be that hi...

*stares at the shopwizard listings*

3000 NP?! Last year's books are cheaper than that.

O.o It's gone up! It was 2700 or something like that when I looked earlier today. I was gonna buy an extra one to read to my pet, but I didn't. Now I kinda wish I did, if they keep rising.... I wish I could snag one from the money tree (I saw one there several times) but my connection is so slow right now I don't have a chance.

Seems that, although many more people are collecting advent prizes, there are also many more people hoarding. In years past, most Advent prizes would sell for 1np to 150 np depending on thier usefulness (with the exception of the truly great prizes like paint brushes and dubloons).

I wonder if prices will bomb when people notice that things haven't sold six months from now.

You find 813 Neopoints!!!
You find a Inflatable Fire Yooyu Ball!!!

You also find a Terror Mountain Altador Cup Cup!!!

Strange animation. Sound, anyone?

And I just got the Snow Beast Challenger! Cool! XD

I like the ball.

They basically have kept recycling the same couple of music files and the scream. Well this scream sounded a little bit different. I don't know, someone at neopets sure likes to scream I guess...

Okay, that animation was just bizarre. The sound was nothing special - just some vaguely fitting trumpet-y noises followed by the techo screaming (much like the screaming yesterday, actually).

I actually enjoyed the content of this one, in comparision of my disappointment over the first three days. The "Yay! We have sound!" is getting really old though.

I absolutely cracked up when I saw the animation. I knew what was coming with the Techo but I still laughed out loud. :roflol:

I like how TNT have made Events of the past year into animations for the Advent. Short and to the point - who needs a 5 minute clip!??!? o_O

Heh, I thought this animation was hilarious. It played the background music from the Altador Cup tournament (which is now stuck in my head again

) and then the random spazzing techo fan from the tournament wanders past and screams. (Different scream, more like a 'rah!' then a shriek of terror.)

Hehe! The animations sure are getting better. The sheer strangeness makes them great. Crazy Fan Techo randomly steps in for a scream, crazy zombies decide to come over for dinner... good job TNT. The first few days tricked me into thinking the Advent Calendar would suck this year.

Well lots have changed over on Neopets the following year. I wouldn't be surprised if we see the Game Master in one of the upcoming calendar days

I heard the music first...and my first thought was...that sounds familiar...I heard that somewhere.

Then I saw the altador cup... .i still have occassional nightmares about that cup....

Ric · #28 Post by **Ric** » Thu Dec 07, 2006 9:51 am

I would have liked it just a *little* bit longer. Just domething to keep tme interested. Which I really need right now.

Alex · #29 Post by **Alex** » Thu Dec 07, 2006 10:46 am

I want to get a job at TNT as their official 'screamer' ;P

I'm liking the later animations better than the first couple of days though.

It might make more sense to you if you have played the altador cup.
