to your shop.

went live yesterday. The answer to the last one was 'Count Von Roo's Coffin'.
- Here are just a few of the new Fruits that have been discovered around the Island.

winning Neoadventure - Gadgadsbogen Day?
Dr. Sloth stormed over to the Island Mystic who had retreated to his hut. He sat down on the floor infront of the
Mystic and said, "Do you have any idea where Jhuidah went?" The Island Mystic's eyes opened wide and he replied,
"You will have a sudden urge to drink an eyeball slushie!"

up for grabs...

March 3rd
- Tomorrow has been cancelled!
Yes, that is correct. March the 3rd will not be happening. Basically, we
are now syncing the daily content once per day, and because of all the extra things we have
to do (syncing to 120 servers, translating the site), it is happening much later than usual.
As a result, by the time the site syncs the actual day that news refers to is over in more
than half the world. The fact that we are 8 hours behind GMT does not help that fact either.
Australians, for instance, will first hear about Uni Day (March the 2nd) at 4pm on March
the 3rd, and those playing from Nuku'alofa in Tonga have it even worse!
So anyway, we will be doing the content one day in advance from now on, and then sync at
midnight on the previous day. We hope you like this idea!! All the stuff that will usually
go up on the 3rd will be happening on the 4th, so don't worry about missing Mystery Pic :)
Also, Half Price Day will be the 3rd as usual.
March 2nd - Uni Day
- Today's TCG Card of the Day is the Darigan Gardens.
The Haunted Woods would be proud.
- Learned Neopets will be thrilled to hear there are some new
Uni themed Books on sale.

try?

- Well, Rink Runner wasn't giving out that many NP
so we increased its payout by 50%.
- Today's Site Spotlight award goes to
Teera_misu and Amaretta_Creme.
- As tomorrow is not going to exist (see the note above) we are starting a new Caption
Contest today. This should mean that everything is back to normal for Thursday (only a day in the future - eep thats confusing!)
- Can you figure out how to get hold of this fabulous new Uni avatar?
- If you get hold of a Speckled Paint Brush, you can now transform your
Uni!
- Get your shop in the Uni Day mood with this new Blog!

live now, we promise :)

"Confound it, what is that racket?" the evil Chia, Hubrid Nox, grumbled as he sat up in bed, rubbing his bleary eyes.
Stuffing his feet into his slippers, he headed downstairs in an even nastier mood than usual. By now, the sound had grown
louder; it seemed to be some sort of wailing. Good, I HOPE whatever rotten thing is making all that noise is suffering! he
thought...
