Faerie Festival change to October 2nd

[ChaosWolf]

Fair Neopians, we have some breaking news: although Queen Fyora was excited to unveil a new and improved Faerie Festival event this year on September 20th, forecasts of a particularly severe storm blowing in from Mystery Island have caused the Faerie Queen to delay the event.
Since the storm is setting records for unusually high winds 🌪️ the Festival has been rescheduled to October 2nd for the safety of attending Neopians. While the delay is disappointing for all involved, a little extra time before the festival means that Queen Fyora and her team have more time to work their magic.
Rest assured, Neopians—when October 2nd arrives, you will be treated to a celebration like no other. 🧚*♀️✨

aww D:
the healing springs faerie didn't seem to get the memo.

The Water Faerie says a few magical words and...

In celebration of the Faerie Festival, all your Neopets have their health completely restored!!!

Seriously, why would they delay it by so many days and then, imagine this, they wait until the day of to post it? They're always blaming it on sum bullshit too like we are children. I was really looking forward to today. Oh well!

[myonlyappeal]

Actually relieved, because I'll be traveling for work until the 2nd! That way I can be fully present.

Two weeks T_T

I bet few members here could actually code an entire plot in two weeks...

A huge bummer, this is going to be my first major event in Neopets too Still really makes me wonder what happened though, can't imagine making an announcement to postpone a big event on the day itself, and delayed by a week and more

We can tell this is your first time lol. Also meant no disrespect. I was thinking of the meme where the dude has a noose around his neck that you usually see around political times lol

This is classic neo. If anybody ever thought this was going to roll out on time.

Next will be the NC UC's. Oh, we meant December 2026.

loooooooooool classic neopets. They made a nice little cover story and everything. Hopefully the wait will be for the better this time around. I'm in no hurry. Just hoping they actually smooth out the (non-exploitable) glitches and whatnot.

I really want to be optimistic for the new ownership but this doesn't sit right for me.
Its nothing that users wouldn't have been understanding of. We get it, sites in new hands, lots of things need done and caught up. So just SAY THAT.
"Sorry, we bit off more than we can chew. We are overly ambitious and excited to get content for you while fixing the backlog of issues. Going forward we will be more realistic with timelines and our communication with you all." BOOM. Problem solved.

Why is honesty so hard. Just tell us the truttttthhhhhhhhhh.

I was so excited for the traffic the event would bring, what a shame as its been dead. I hope that is the only delay!
Day of the event announcement is pretty awful though ngl I agree.
