Better Than You: Neverending Boss Battle

This week's Better Than You features Dr. Sloth. Below is his challenge statement.

"Oh, good, my Mutant Milkshake has arrived... what?! You dare fire upon my ship? I might have admired your audacity, if you hadn't just spilled my Mutant Milkshake all over my robes. I blame you for this disaster even though you are clearly not in the same room. Grundos, launch missiles!"

To beat him you must get 2,360 points in Neverending Boss Battle.

Prize is Star Map for the 500 winners. Additionally, you get a Gold Trophy and 20,000 Neopoints if you are one of the first 10, Silver Trophy and 10,000 Neopoints if you are between the 11th and 50th, and a Bronze Trophy and 3,000 Neopoints if you are between 51st and 500th.

New Game and Challenge: Jumpin' Gem Heist

The newest Neopets game has come out along with the new game challenge. The new game is called Jumpin' Gem Heist. This is an interesting new game, but it gets hard and I keep running out of time. You basically just click and toss a rock up to dump gems. You have to catch the rocks you throw or you will soon run out of ones to use. You also have to watch out for falling stones (this are bigger and darker colored than the one you throw). Basically easy concept, but hard to follow through with fast enough to not run out of time.

To get AAA's prize you must score 70,000. To get Abigail's prize you must score 20,000. As always by default you get Abigail's prize if you have not gotten it yet and first beat AAA's score. It did not take me long to beat Abigail. The prize for beating Abigail is Paint Your Own Sandan Set. However, I can barely beat her and give up on going for AAA's score. I just cannot get around the running out of time a little past 20,000. It just is too frustrating and not entertaining.

Update 1/26/10: AAA's score has been changed to 45,000. Still too hard for me, but at least it now seems quite possible for more people.

Better Than You: Tunnel Tumble

This week's Better Than You features Jordie. Below is his challenge statement.

"Tumbling through tunnels around Moltara turned out to be so much fun, I've decided to make a game of it! I've gotten pretty good at it, too. Roxton never has time to play, though. I can't figure out why. Since Roxton is too busy to play with me, would you be interested?"

To beat him you must get 4,740 points in Kreludan Mining Corp..

Prize is Uncomfortably Large Rock of Pain for the 500 winners. Additionally, you get a Gold Trophy and 20,000 Neopoints if you are one of the first 10, Silver Trophy and 10,000 Neopoints if you are between the 11th and 50th, and a Bronze Trophy and 3,000 Neopoints if you are between 51st and 500th.

This week's Better Than You features Niten Hiroru. Below is her challenge statement.

"'...' The silent Kiko looks at you, then at the race course. He's dressed all in black, grasping a sword in his sharp little claws. Not really the best gear for a tube race, right? Yet as he turns back to stare at you, you realize you've been challenged. You ask the Kiko if he's really that good. His only answer is '...'"

To beat him you must get 950 points in Tubular Kiko Racing.

Prize is Carved Sansetsukon for the 500 winners. Additionally, you get a Gold Trophy and 20,000 Neopoints if you are one of the first 10, Silver Trophy and 10,000 Neopoints if you are between the 11th and 50th, and a Bronze Trophy and 3,000 Neopoints if you are between 51st and 500th.

Get Free Coca Cola Olympic Medallions at Mac's Stores

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of iCoke.ca. All opinions are 100% mine.



If you are in Canada or are planning to visit soon, then you should definitely plan on stopping at a Mac's store. For a limited time you can get a FREE Coca-Cola Collectible Medallion when you buy 2 591 ml Coca Cola products at Mac's. There are three different medallions to collect and they are exclusively available as part of this promotion at Mac's. The promotion lasts from January 4 - February 28, 2010 (January 5, 2010 - March 2, 2010 in the Quebec and Atlantic provinces), but I would not be surprised if these go fast and the supplies run out before the promotions end date.

I personally love collecting Olympic and Coca Cola stuff. I wish I could get to Canada to buy some Diet Cokes at Mac's and get at least one of the medallions. I will probably just be stuck with only getting an Olympic pin from the United States Coke Rewards program, although I hope to also earn enough to snag a beanie before supplies run out. I understand why they are only doing it in Canada, as the stores are not in the United States and it is exclusive to Mac's, but I so wish they would do something similar in the United States, as the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics are taking place so close to the American border. Anyways if you can get your hands on one of these medallions I am sure it will be a great collectible, as Olympics and Coca Cola stuff is often sought after, especially when combined. Plus these seem to be a pretty unique style or at least new to me collectible.

Protect Your Smartphone for just $5

This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of Pexagon Technology. All opinions are 100% mine.



Iphone-plastic-az

When not playing Neopets, I am usually playing games on my iPhone (if only there was a Neopets game app!!!). I have had several different cases in the year and a half I have had the phone. Most worked great, but they eventually wore out. I had been looking for a new one right before Christmas, but instead ended up going with an external battery case, as I am always running my iPhone to red from playing games on it. If I was not replacing it was a external battery, then these personalized Apple & BlackBerry cases are something I would seriously consider trying.

The cases options nice silicone ones. I know silicone is not always the best protective case, but personally I love silcone ones for the feel and it offers enough protection for me. For those that are rougher on their smartphones, they also have them in hard plastic. They come in a wide variety of colors, which is something many designs I have seen lack.

The best part is the price. They are only $5 and that includes free engraving (yes, even on the silicone ones!). Shipping is offered free, too. I still am not sold on the silicone being not cracking, as every one I have had in the past has eventually done it, and worse they seem to always ended up stretched out after a while. However, even if they still have this flaw like all other silicone ones, the price makes it much more affordable for the length of use they tend to give.

10 Score Sends is Over

The ability to send 10 score sends per game is now over on Neopets. It has been going on over a month and they did warn it was ending on the 4th, but I really thought it meant it was ending after the 4th was finished (i.e. at midnight tonight). I was not even able to get to 100k today before it suddenly ended. I am rather annoyed at it ending this way, but at least it did go on for a long time and it did go to the 4th and not just end with the end of 2009 like they announced at one time.

Final Day to Enjoy 10 Score Sends

Today is supposed to be the last day of 10 score sends. I am going to try to take full advantage of it for the last time and do my best so far. My goal is to earn 200k from playing games today. I have easily done 100k several times, but not lately, as I have not had much time for Neopets. Today, though, I have planned ahead and have only a few things that need to get done and am free to spend most of the day having fun on Neopets.

Do you have a goal for the final day of 10 score sends? Will you miss the 10 score sends?
