Latest Neopets News

Woohoo, position #19125~!

Why is the in game timer counting *up*? Time keeps being added at random intervals.

Lol it's true. Event Ends 03H : 40M
*Two minutes pass* Event Ends 03H : 42M
*Another minute passes* Event Ends 03H : 43M

How very Neopets.

¿Will the thophy and the avatar be granted once it finishes?

The event ended on the 14th. The timer now is just matching the current NST timer.

Whoever thought of this event should be fired.

drougy wishing someone would lose their livelihood over a browser game event that was kind of poorly handled is...

Harsh, drougy.

Not TNT's best work but the ranking certainly gave me an impression of how many active players there are on the site participating in current events. I also think this was mostly done to test out the new app, which is a good idea honestly.

The way this event was handled was awful and the obvious cheating is going unchecked. They are "aware" of it but refuse to take action.

Really love this game. Will it be added permanently to the site after event completion?

It's actually already a permanent part of the site!

And I agree, it's a big improvement over the original Sakhmet Solitaire

currently on position 3919 i've been trying for days to beat my personal record but i can't do it TwT idk how you're supposed to reach the top 100
but it was pretty okay as an event imo

Oof, just scored ~2280 and didn't bring my score to leaderboard. So it's already fixed or ?

i don't care if my position is 20923, i'll just be happy with winning something

I've gradually been increasing my high score, but never checked the leaderboard.
Just saw that I'm #7277 with a score of 2151, and I'm happy with that, knowing that there was never any way to get into the trophy zone.

dani_b_roccks scores are only updated once a day at midnight NST. Your new high score will post for the final scoring tonight at 12 AM NST.

This was all very silly. A game that is more about luck than judgement, so a function of how many hours you want to commit to playing, and then only the top 100 getting the prizes. Let's hope this is a misstep not to be repeated while still hoping that more game related events are a thing.

Played exactly one game and called it a day 2 weeks ago

Another 'event' that I'm glad is over.

Just a personal best but the scores are all cleared up. I thought it ended after midnight tonight?

@ absoluejudith it ends tonight at 12: AM NST per their page. If you beat the score that was showing on the current page it should update tonight. This is from the FAQ page End Sunday, February 15th 11:59 NST. Prizes will be awarded on Monday, February 16th.

Lol, I'm position 7152 and I'm not even going to try to get any higher. Not worth the aggravation from that bug where the cards drop into the target pile even if I drag them into the play area.

I sent the score and got no avatar?

What a frickin' inevitable mess.

@blackmalbec Avatars will be rewarded when the event ends tonight, so you're good

I played this wonderful game ONCE! Never again. You could not pay me to play this game again. And I have played all kind of solitage versions all over the place....none have been such a mess.
Positive side of this! It is soon over!

I'd love to have participated, but I'm apparently effected by an old glitch concerning the High Scores & filters.

From what I've been told from someone else effected by the glitch the same way I have been, the High Scores Table/List will not save the score of a username which has a word on the filters. Well apparently at some point "pika" was on the filters because it was a Brazilian slang term. Now the confusing part is that "pika" has been removed from the filter list and can be used on the Neoboards... BUT there seems to be a glitch with the High Scores Table/List backend where its accessing an old version of the filtered list which still includes "pika".

Now normally this wouldn't be a problem, it just means I can't earn Game Trophies... EXCEPT for this Event, for some reason, they use your High Score List data to rank you. So, since the High Score Table/List refuses to record my score as its on an old filtered list, I'm unable to participate (as well as everyone else affected by this glitch, cause "pika" ain't the only word on that list).

I've sent in a ticket but, not only did the user who told me this say they've been trying to get TNT to fix this glitch for years, unfortunately I only learned this Thursday and though I did oddly get a response from TNT this morning, it was just asking if I was still being affected and I confirmed I was (and I just checked now too).

Now I know I'm not getting onto any of the top spots, but I would have liked to have gotten at least the Avatar. I did send TNT a screenshot of one game I cleared (which I think was only a bit above 2100), so would be nice if they could manually place me in so I could get the participation prizes. Though would also be nice for them to fix this glitch (or at the very least not use the High Score Table/List to determine something for an Event).

pikachu315111 Wishing you good luck with that! Wait til you get a survery asking how there service (nothing happened yet!!) was! That will make you more livid and you will have a new pen pal. I refuse to do that too! lol

Oh hey @pikachu315111 I guess I must be affected by the same glitch or a similar glitch somehow. I reported it a while back (not knowing the reason, just knowing I couldn't be on the high-score table for Sakhmet Solitaire). They didn't help and then just like your situation, they asked today if it's fixed.

Seems like it's a problem with all the new games on my account, anyway. Not sure about the "Classic Games," as I at least allegedly show a high score on those. (I'm bad at games and don't care much about trophies or avatars. Well, unless they are limited-time participation prizes, like these are. )

I just played a bunch more times until I was actually able to finish a game. I beat my high score by 7 points!

Not to brag but I cracked the top 10,000

I like the ability to play neo games on the companion app. I think they should have made the numbers on the solitaire cards larger for ease, instead of just copying the desktop version exactly. Also Roodoku should def be added as a game!

As far as how the event was handled, I'm just glad they're hosting events. Gives more of a sense of community for the site.

new day 16th feb high scores poofed and no avatar ... maby if they come into office later who knows

I feel lile this is an unpopular opinion, but I really liked the event I'm at 8005, but I had fun playing the game

I’m a solitaire freak irl and I made it to position 1577 with a score of 2219. There’s just no way to get into the top 100 that’s wild. Glad they made the avatar accessible to all though

chevrine maybe dont take everything you read seriously, there's a new thing in the internet called a 'meme' idk if you heard of 'em... yall so sensitive


jawbutch I don’t think this event can really be used to measure active players when so much of the high score board is made up of bot accounts. It’s actually frustrating that the event was dominated by exploiters and regular users didn’t stand a chance. I do wish they’d keep events like this going though - it’s the closest we’ve gotten to AAA in a long time haha.

Got the avatar this morning, there was no notification but it showed up in my avatar list.

Same!

Calling it a 'meme' doesn't make it any less rude. 'It was a joke, bro!' That's you. Regardless of your intent or how silly or quirky you think you are, you said something rude and got called out by multiple people. Own it.

POSITION 6392

So sensitive bro my god

and fire the trainee
