December Monthly Freebies
  • Posted by Jen
  • Posted on December 1, 2019, 12:49 am NST

Today marks the start of the month of Celebrating with lots of daily gifts from the Advent Calendar to come. It's also time to collect your freebie foods and neopoints for December!


Advent Calendar
December 1st marks the first day of the Advent Calendar. Visit each day for gifts and animations. You're able to check out our Advent guide for full coverage.

Once again this year, each Advent animation will have a secret clickable item (this year it appears to be a Santa Hat) that will award you a random Neopoint item once per day.


Winter Starlight Celebration and the Snowager
Today also marks the start of the Winter Starlight Celebration. The Snowager is now hibernating for December - he is asleep every hour of the day. Visit him once a day at any time to steal a piece of treasure!


Donations
We're getting closer to meeting our 2019 fundraising goal but are still a wee way away. If you'd like to donate to help keep JN online and ad-free you can check out the details here! Just a friendly reminder the month of December is your last chance to get our 2019 Donation Trophies!

Neopets Birthday Twitter Q&As
  • Posted by Herdy
  • Posted on December 3, 2019, 2:22 pm NST

As advertised during the Neopets Birthday celebration, TNT have posted some answers to questions on their Twitter page. The questions were answered by Scrappy, Jade, DJ Skellington, Binary_Supagoo, and Kikocat. The questions answered were:

Q: Have you considered making Neopets available as an app?
A: Yes and we are currently working hard on it! As we get closer more and more details will emerge!

Q: When will the mobile site be LIVE?
A: We don’t have a specific date at the moment, however, our team is working hard to get everything ready as soon as we can.

Q: Are you planning on more Ghoul Catchers levels, or are your efforts focused elsewhere?
A: Efforts are focused elsewhere right now. We have a lot of exciting projects in the works & want to make sure we dedicate all our time & attention to making them the best they can be.

Q: Why is it so hard to get unconverted pets?
A: Unconverted pets haven’t been “available” on the site since April of 2007. The artwork for those pets was discontinued when we introduced the NC Mall and the hundreds and hundreds of wearable items.

Q: Are you ever going to make a forum specifically for your older audience?
A: While we understand that a lot of our users have grown up with the game, Neopets is still a kid-friendly community where we want everyone to have a safe and open space in the game.

Q: Will we ever see more official Neopets merchandise?
A: Yes, you will! In fact, we have some new merch being worked on right now that will be available to everyone soon!

Q: Any plans for bringing back Key Quest?
A: At this time there are no plans. Our attention right now is on converting all of Flash to mobile.

Q: Any chance we can see scarier Darigan pets?
A: That’s an interesting request, we’d love to see some ideas from you guys on what you’d like to see!

Q: Will Vandagyre ever be able to wear the old clothing and customization accessories from before they were released?
A: Hm, not sure about this one. It would definitely be a big effort and is not on the horizon for us currently.

Q: For people with all their dream pets maybe there could be a dream item giveaway for them?
A: Interesting idea! We could look into adding that to the Dream Neopet Giveaway event. I'd love to hear from you guys if that is something a lot of people would be interested in.

Q: Will any game come out soon?
A: We are working on making a new game for the site, so keep an eye out

Q: Have you guys every considered doing Twitch streams for all things Neo related?
A: If by “Twitch” you mean “NeoCam”... just you wait!

Q: How are customization spotlight winners chosen?
A: We take your votes & look at the top entries, & we choose what we like based on that. Other times we choose whichever doesn’t matter their rank. In essence, there is no method to the madness it’s mostly random.

Q: when will Sid come back?!?
A: Punchbag Sid is just biding his time...

Q: Are there any plans in place to build different tiers of premium for more perks/benefits?
A: We have looked at adding more perks and even possibly breaking it up into tiers and is something that would probably happen a bit down the road

They closed by saying that there will be additional questions answered in the future, but it is unlikely they will be any submitted now (as the deadline was the end of October).

Dream Neopet Giveaway
  • Posted by Dave
  • Posted on December 10, 2019, 2:51 pm NST

The annual Dream Neopet Giveaway is now live!

As in past years, you may select one of your Neopets and select a new colour/species combo that you would like them to transform into. 40 Neopets will be selected to be transformed. You must select your Neopet by Friday, December 21st 11:59 PM NST.

Things to Remember
If your Neopet is lucky enough to be selected, their clothing will be placed into your Closet before the transformation. You'll start off with a naked pet if you win. If you enter an Unconverted Neopet, that Neopet will be converted if selected to win. You may also only enter using one account. It can be a side account or main account—but only one!
