Wow, talk about easy money.

RULES: For this contest, all you have to do is be the LAST PERSON to post in this thread in the year 2006. I figured no point in putting up this board until the last day, right?

PRIZE:The winner wins a whopping 200,700 NPS! (for the year 2007!)

CONTEST DATE/TIME:So when IS 2007 officially? This is a contest for neopoints..... so It's based on NEOPIAN STANDARD TIME... which you can find on the top right corner of the front page on neopets, or on your neopets sidebar under the "log out" button. The contest ends when it becomes January in neopia... the last person to post HERE during neopet's year 2006 is the victor!

I don't know if people would cheat or not to get 200k, so I'm going to set the post limit to 200 posts to win this contest.

SO. Let it begin. Feel free to post on this board about this contest as much as you like during the course of the day... who knows, maybe nobody will respond, and you will remain the VICTOR!

How far away is midnight NST now??? If its anything before January 1st NST than you better POST!

Meh shame that forum time is the same as my time and I'll actually be somewhere at midnight

Good luck to everyone though!

Er. Forum time is whatever the user sets it as. For example, I currently have mine set to EST (-5 GMT), but I can easily go into my profile and change it to -12 GMT.

Sooo basically it ends at... *looks at time you posted* 7 PM EST aka 4 PM PST/NST? *slightly confused now*

oh.

......
........ crap.

I figured it had something to do with the timezone of the person who set up or forums or something.

WELL THEN. Neopian Standard Time it is then!

I am in NST, and it would look like it is ending tomorrow the 31st and 4pm NST time.

No, no, keep it GMT, please?

(I'd much rather it be at 7pm than have to stay up til 3 in the morning

)

The last post for 2006 in NST time must be made at 11.59 pm 31st December. You must work out what time that is in PPT Time and post in this thread at that time.

My time on PPT is set up to coincide with NST (I don't need to know what time it is at home as I have a computer clock).

That way, I know that anything posted about Neopets (example Tarla, plots, cookie-grabbers, etc) is happening in "real" time. I don't have to try and work out the time difference between me and Neopets. (Which is quite a lot because I live in Australia).

Oh, I'm not going to be near a computer when 2006 ends

It is a really cool idea game though

2007 will have been here for 2 hours for me when this contest ends, so I may have a chance! *puts on party hat*

2007 for me, is in exactly 11 hours from now, and the Neopian new day starts at 5.00pm for me, so I have no problems with the time.

Wait.

You said that the contest finishes in 24 hours, which is 11am my time, which is 4pm NST.

But you also said that it ends when NST ends.

...Which is it? o.O
