The Life and Times of Bomb Jammer

I stiffened from where I was dressing a Bombfish. I barely managed to keep my knife from cutting away too much of its tough armour-like scales; if I had stuck the blade into the fish wrong, I might have struck one of its internal organs.

Shiny! A Guide to Starting Your Trophy Collection



Have you ever woken up one morning and thought to yourself that your user lookup is missing something? Or maybe you have an insatiable appetite for gold and glory? If either of these scenarios describes you, a shiny new trophy for your cabinet may be just what you need! I myself have fallen victim to the desire to add one of these shiny objects to my collection from time to time. If you’re just embarking on your path to glory, this is the guide for you. In this guide, I will break down how the Neopets trophy system works and do my best to aid you on your quest for victory. First, it’s worth mentioning there are a handful of ways one can win a trophy in Neopets. This can range anywhere from a daily high score in one (or more) of your favourite games, to a random event (to the ever-elusive Tax Beast, I curse you), or for your skills at various card games. While daunting, this one-stop shop will set you on your way to becoming the ultimate trophy collector in no time. When hunting for trophies from Neopets classic games, I mean the newly-revived games where you can submit a score up to three times a day. Essentially, trophies for these games are handed out daily, early in the morning of the next day. What this means is once you’ve submitted your trophy-worthy score, that score needs to stand on the high-score table for that game until TNT hands out trophies in the wee hours of the morn. What may have been a gold-worthy score when you submitted it may be bumped down a tier or two depending on how your fellow Neopians perform throughout the trophy period.
