14th and 15th September
- The latest issue of the Neopian Times is now live!
Packed full of stories, comics and articles, its a great way to start your weekend off with a bang :)
Meep!
- We changed it so that message boards don't get auto-deleted as fast as they used to. We put a time limit
on them to save our database (and the sanity of our monitors), but it isn't long enough, especially on
General Chat.
- Three extremely rare Haunted Woods stamps have been added to the Stamp Album,
including a foil stamp, a holographic stamp, and this one that seems to have a rather bizarre misprint.
Fifteen quid for a stamp?!?!
- Usuki Frenzy and Dubloon Disaster
now come with 50% extra Neopoints! We do monitor the average Neopoints given per game, and these two
were amongst the lowest.
- Now we will be removing Neopets that have had their owners frozen from the
Book Award and the Gourmet Club,
it's only fair really.
Friday the 13th - Techo Day
- For anyone who missed out getting a Doglefox, Babaa, or
Noil plushie last month,
Claire's
is restocking all of their US stores this week!!
- Not only is today Friday the 13th - oooooh spooky, but it is Techo day! Look out for
lots of new Techo related things being added throughout the day :)
- The Bakery, Food Shop and Chocolate Factory are getting into the swing of things and
have released some new Techo related goodies.
- Awww.... the ickle Baby Techo is just sooooooo cute!
Goo Goo Ga Ga
- Techos now have three new Battledome Moves -
Techo Slam, Techo Leap and
Techo Slide.
- The new Mystery Pic has just gone up - the answer to
the last one was 'The Doorknob of the Haunted House' from our incredibly hard
Haunted House game. That was supposed to be hard to get :(
- You can now paint your Techo Shadow and
Rainbow
at the Rainbow Pool.
- Oops! The Zafara Rogue wasn't actually activated, we have fixed this now - sorry about that :)
- A new super rare petpet has gone on sale in
Ye Olde Petpets - the Turmac!

head to the Book Shop.
Five new books have just gone on sale.

who isn't as bad as he makes out.
- Turn your Techo into a Battledome champion with this fantastic battle set. Available

Brack belongs to o_JoJo_o and is the winner of this week's Petpet Spotlight.
- With all this talk of a war that is brewing you really can't afford to not equip your Neopet with one of these
basic, yet hard wearing battledome sets.
- We have a couple of problems with Neohomes, so if yours vanishes of the face of Neopia, don't worry
about it, it will be fixed soon!
- The next Stamp Album page is going to be
Haunted Woods. We have added three stamps to start you off!
- Now we have a Mystery Island Kougra! Even though they are naturally
found on the island, some prefer to dress in more traditional costume.
- Three new swords have been added to the Battle Supplies
shop in the Lost Desert.
- Today's Mystery Pic has gone live. The answer to
last week's picture was 'The Volcano Run Header'.
