Ooh, scheduled downtime while I'm asleep? Lucky~!

is the void plot coming back?!
also i'm glad this is during the night for me ^^

I would imagine the Neopies are next on the Neo-agenda (February). Perhaps TVW Part III comes in March, and Negg Festival in April/May, Altador Cup in June, TVW Part IV (finale!?) in August/September.

Hoping TVW doesn't stink out the Negg Fest. We really don't need another site event going on hiatus.

Here we go again - another week of problems! Can't wait!
by samaanthag on January 20, 2026 8:28 AM NST
@pancake: That sounds rather optimistic! Let's keep the spirit up Still, I doubt they can do two full parts of a plot in one year and I doubt Part IV is the finale. Part III will focus purely on Ozzy's troubled past (is my assumption), then part IV will be more politics and plotting on what the next steps will be. Maybe part V can be a finale. Keep in mind that the main "heroes" still know nothing, nor do they have anything... Unless Baelia explodes into a weapon of mass colour or whatever XD

Interesting. Make sure to do dailies early in the day, I guess?
And in the past it's sometimes taken longer than expected.

IN ROUGHLY 20-30 MINUTES NEO IS ABOUT TO ENTER DOWNTIME!

If you're reading this and have things you still want to do on Neopets (like your Quest Log), DO IT NOW!
by pikachu315111 on January 20, 2026 4:35 PM NST
@pikachu315111 It's 2h38m early >.>
by maninshi on January 20, 2026 5:22 PM NST
@ maninshi:
Hehe, whoops, my bad!

Though, that said, if you haven't done Quest Log yet you really should no matter if you have 2 hours or half an hour; what are you waiting for.

So I guess it helps if you remember what day it is. Doh!
by amberzan on January 20, 2026 9:00 PM NST
Why is the site still down?
by jws1988 on January 20, 2026 9:06 PM NST
@jws1988 ime maintenance usually runs over the time they say
by berriganify on January 20, 2026 9:08 PM NST
Plz gib back neopets. Me addicted.
by zotz on January 20, 2026 9:18 PM NST
Hope it does not run into midnight, I didn't get to do the daily quests yet! owo;;
by fancypants200 on January 20, 2026 9:24 PM NST
@jws1988 neopets downtime must be expected to take 10x as long as estimated
by oreosenpai on January 20, 2026 9:24 PM NST
North America Pacific still down.
by anydarnedthingeez on January 20, 2026 9:26 PM NST
Ugh I hope it starts running again soon - I haven't done my dailies yet
by danceypants246 on January 20, 2026 9:26 PM NST
North America Eastern, still down. Didn't do my dailies today & was my last day of a streak.
by xlynzerdzx on January 20, 2026 9:27 PM NST
IT'S BACK!
by contessa on January 20, 2026 9:27 PM NST
North America Pacific is back sans
by anydarnedthingeez on January 20, 2026 9:33 PM NST
Hmmm.. Have we noticed any changes? Doesn't seem too different to me..
by apophis324 on January 21, 2026 12:02 AM NST
Oh wait, never mind. There are Neopies tickets available in the Mall. That must be what the downtime has been for then, as expected
by apophis324 on January 21, 2026 12:03 AM NST
The NC Neopies tickets were there yesterday afternoon so they didn't take it down for those. I've not seen anyone comment on any changes that are noticeable.
by bearden61 on January 21, 2026 5:07 AM NST
I noticed that you do not have to open the daily quest log before completing quests now? I don't know if that's an update from the scheduled downtime but my gosh I've been waiting for this! Love it <3
by mopsquad on January 21, 2026 6:07 AM NST
@bearden61: I see. I didn't mean that TNT took the site down to bring in some NC Mall stuff, but I meant that they took the site down to implement the Neopies. But if these tickets were already there, then maybe that wasn't the reason either.
by apophis324 on January 21, 2026 8:49 AM NST
@ apophis324 I was hoping the Neopies would be starting today, if it does it's usually later in the day and should be 1 1/2 days for the first day of voting. They didn't give a date in the blog only that the NC tickets would be released on the 20th and that the Neopies would be earlier this year, late January. I'm thinking maybe 27th with the NC portion starting that day, no idea just my personal thoughts. The Neopies always ran longer than the NC portion and even with the additional 7 days of NC still will only be less half the days of the actual Neopies. I haven't seen anyone mention anything new or updated, maybe it was just some backend maintenance.
