Dear TNT, just out of curiosity: what is the name of the referee of the Altador Cup? I admire him. Thousands and thousands of matches fairly and admirably refereed by himself and no complaints from him in this 19 years of cups. I think that the event organization should honor him in some way in the XX cup. ~arkalon
The referee of the Altador Cup is lovingly called “Whistles” by his mother. He’s now changed that to his legal name as it’s all he wants to be called! /gen ~~Stone

G'day TNT! I just thought I'd let you know that Retrired Trinkets III Mystery Capsule and the like are spelled incorrectly. It should be retired! Cheers :) ~missjitterbug
G’day to you too! Thanks for bringing this oopsie to our attention! Fixes have been made, so it is spelled correctly! Cheers! ~~Goldfish in Bowl

*scratches head* The Super Shop Wizard can not find the Princess Fernypoo Gown when using the Identical To My Phrase search option. The gown can be found if using the Containing My Phrase search option though. *scratches head again* ~neo__rainbow
*scratches Princess Fernypoo’s head* The Super Shop Wizard can now find “Princess Fernypoo Gown” through BOTH search options. c: Enjoy your reasonably priced gowns! ~~Fae

Hi TNT! First of all, thank you for the amazing new items we can get at Trudy, they look amazing and super on point with the plot! There's one thing though: would you pretty please with a cherry on top change the zone of the Full Moon & Rolling Purple Clouds Foreground to Background Item? It is currently under Higher Foreground, which makes the clouds go over the our pets' heads and kinda breaks immersion of the customization since it doesn't blend as nicely to the background. :( I hope you can do us from the customization part of the site a solid here! Thank you for your attention! ~simbologies
Hello! So glad to hear your love for the new Trudy items, as well as your suggestion for Full Moon & Rolling Purple Clouds Foreground! We have made the change to that item, which is now called “Full Moon & Rolling Purple Clouds Trinket” and has been rezoned to be a background item! Happy Customizing! ~~Goldfish in Bowl

I'm writing an article for the NT about the beginning of Neopets. Specifically,I want to mention how Bruce use to literally just be Bruce Forsyth,but the Handy Tips say that i cant reference real people. Can I include it? ~anonymous
Hello! While mentioning real world people is generally not allowed in Neopian Times articles, something like mentioning a former likeness of a Neopet can be allowed in the correct context. When users submit articles, we take a closer look for issues like this: for example, something like “Hey, did you know that the original Bruce’s art used to be a picture of Bruce Forsyth?” doesn’t break the canon, but an article making references or that is mainly about Bruce Forsyth wouldn’t be accepted! Feel free to send in your article and we’ll give it a read! ~~Snail

Virtupets Energy Sabre, Shield of Faerieland, and Blade of the Battle Faerie are all new wearable items that are based off of existing weapons. The issue is that the wearable version shares the exact same name as the weapon which makes it extremely hard to search for the right version and can lead to some disappointed buyers. Can you please change the name of the new wearables? ~potential_ruler
Hello! Thank you for bringing this to our attention! You can now search for the Virtupets Energy Sabre Handheld, Shield of Faerieland Handheld, and Blade of the Battle Faerie Handheld, and we hope this helps avoid any confusion! ~~Snail

My Sroom Chia shows up as a cog nearly everywhere on the site. It makes him unseen and almost invisible, which saddens him deeply. Can whatever ailment is afflicting him be fixed? ~ptyxia
The ailment of concealment has now been lifted from all Sroom Chias across Neopia~! Their cute little faces (both happy & sad!) should be visible for all to see now! ~~Fae

Why is The Discarded Magical Blue Grundo Plushie of Prosperity grey ? ~anydarnedthingeez
For the answer to this question, I highly recommend checking out The Void Within! I hope you enjoy! /gen ~~Stone

HAPPY THOUGHTS

I can't thank TNT enough for the Quest Log. I'm a veteran player and there's been so many special items I wanted that I couldn't get because the price skyrocketed out of control, or there weren't that many items available. But now there is so many that are coming down to a reasonable reach, and reintroducing old items for players to collect. I've actually gotten items I never dreamed I would get. I love you all! ~happydoo2

I feel it's absolutely imperative to chuck a huge truckload of KUDOS around the TNT offices in appreciation of the amazing improvements on the site in such a small space of time! There are too many to even list, from variety of prizes in DQ and even Trudy; to fixing the Action drop-downs on Inventory to be more readable; showing previous reply in NeoMail (though it would be nice to have saved SENT too); and lots of action in TVW (though we really need Act II Hospital to kick in). AWESOME JOB all around !!! As a veteran Neopian of over 20 years - this is the best it's ever been. THANK YOU ! ~pilonet_t62
