Advent Calendar 2023

[Ridley]

I feel like a broken record. I said a while ago that the only people who would want to be "community ambassadors" are cliquey weirdos who want to transform Neopets into their and their friends' personal kingdom. Everything they could ever say to TNT is self-serving. The only thing they are an ambassador for is that tight group of elitist buddies.

But I also don't believe we should just give everybody every rare thing in the game. There would be no point in playing without goals.

I heard the ambassadors were complaining to TNT about it all day so if it got removed you know who to blame.

TNT Dom is literally in Hong Kong at a convention or something. TNT has a convention in HK and in Los Angeles this weekend. There is an almost zero chance they've done anything to the prize pool.

Look man I just wanted a pea for my battledome pet. I'm not overly rich or any of the sorts but as someone who doesn't have much knowledge in the BD that pea would of been a lovely addition to my small BD set I have. It would scrap out my Void blades I've been running.

I hope during the month of december myself and others can at least obtain one. I just want one - I don't even want to sell it. I just want it so I can at least have a fighting chance in the future BD plot in 2024

Silver lining...

At least currently it'll cost like $150 USD to buy one instead of over $500 like before

I heard these things were worth a billion or so. Was it just 1B or several?

Why? Attack peas are just status symbols at this point. I would argue they always have been since they're avatar items as well. There is nothing you would use it for in a utilitarian sense outside of 2P or if they rose the Monoceraptor from the grave. If you need something to beat up BD opponents for items, Illusen's Staff was given out recently or you can grab something like Sword of Thare. If you want something to show off then you're shooting yourself in the foot by throwing it on the Advent Calendar.

I was never able to afford SAP, always dreamed of one, now I don't care anymore.
TNT is just killing our goals and the whole point of the game.

Making everything whorthless doesn't seem like a good way to fix the economy

They are going for 300mil at auction today, how is that worthless? It's still going to be worth a lot after this month is over because lots of people want two of them.

You know, being a player that had to create goals to even play the site anymore...this whole thing acually DOES incentivize some of us. Maybe I can have a little fun there again

I've never particularly cared about getting the SAP, it was always an unattainable item for me.
If I get one, neat, if I don't, I don't care

I just find this all extremely hilarious.

[Delibird]

It almost seems like the Wand of Supernova joke but it actually happened to the lucky few that got the SAP.

I would love to get one but it feels like the odds are against based on all the complaints. It's still unlockable at the 2.5%?
