Feature Friday: Magma Pool Checklist
- Posted by Kenny
- Posted on November 17, 2023, 7:30 pm NST
This weekend, we're shining the spotlight on one of our hottest features: the Magma Pool Time Checklist!
For those who don't know, the Magma Pool is where you can paint your pets Magma!
For most players, there is just one 10 minute interval out of the entire day where you can catch the guard asleep and use the pool. It's random, and different for every player. (A very small number of players who qualify for an absurd list of requirements—see our Magma Pool guide for more on that—are able to use it any time they want.)
Tracking that time can be difficult. "Did I check this minute yet?" "I remember I caught him asleep once before...when was that exactly?" Fortunately, Jellyneo has a tool to make it easier!
Simply visit the pool and mark off the outcome on our tracker! If you check off two time slots within 10 minutes of each other, it's even smart enough to block off the minutes in between them!
Happy hunting!

This weekend, we're shining the spotlight on one of our newer articles: Annual Freebies and Discounts a.k.a. Yearlies!
We're all familiar with the dailies available every day for years, but are you familiar with the "yearlies" (Jellyneo's own neologism) available every year for decades?
We're talking about more than just the annual pet days for your favourite species. For a run-down of all the only-once-a-year avatars, dailies prizes, site themes, events, and more, check out our guide below. With the holidays looming, including the birthday of Neopets, many of them are coming up soon!
Anything you think we missed? Let us know!
