Parasite Warning:

Just a little note: If a popup comes up from WinFix, telling you to download their free scanner,

DON'T DO IT!

There is a Parasite attached to it! I would not have known it if my Anti-Spyware program had not caught it. So beware! Use the Anti-Virus software that came with your computer, or buy it from a respectible store.

Bouncy Supreme

2005-11-08T18:33:00.000-08:00

Bouncy Supreme is a game on Neopets in the much-denied Jelly World. The object of the game is to keep the Yellow Jelly Blumaroo from falling into the lava from the rock pillars, or from getting eatten by a hungery flying dinosaur. There is a timer, but every time you clear a row of gold or silver coins, the time is extended.

Here are some things I've learned playing the game:

Take your time and aim your jumps. Even though you are timed, you have plenty of time for your jump.
For your first three jumps, you have a guide of dots to help you aim your jump. After that, you have to rely on your own judgement.
Use the coins as a guide. Never aim above the coins, but along the edge under the coins. The coins can be used to guage both the height and distance of your jump. The point to aim for is anywhere between the first and second coin, depending on how the coins are arranged. You never aim beyond the second coin, however.
The highest amount of Neopoints that you can get from any one game is 1000 (3000, max). The score at which you get the maxiumum Neopoints at is 1300.
At the upper right-hand corner is a radar that warns you of the dino's approach. At 60 seconds and under, there will be a red dot that shows you how close it is.

That's as much as I can come up with. I haven't learned anything else yet. I'll post more when I do learn more.

Enjoy! ^_^

Ice Cream Machine

2005-11-07T15:35:00.000-08:00

One of my favorite games on Neopets is the Ice Cream Machine.

http://neopets.com/games/icecream2.phtml

The orginal --Ice Cream Factory-- can be found here:

http://www.neopets.com/halloween/gamegraveyard.phtml

I thought I'd post some game help that I learned while playing it.

The instructions, as they appear on the Ice Cream Machine page:

Adee the Chia has been eating too much Ice Cream. Ice Cream for breakfast, Ice Cream for lunch and Ice Cream for dinner. In fact, she has eaten so much that she's starting to get some pretty strange dreams! In her latest one she is trapped within a giant Ice Cream Machine, and must dodge the killer scoops that are trying to hit her... this time the Ice Cream is out for
revenge!

To play Ice Cream Machine you must control Adee with the mouse, and try and avoid the scoops. Move left, right, up and down - but if you hit the Ice Cream you lose a life. Pick up the
special scoops (the ones with an icon on) for a bonus. The Strawberry Bomb will clear all the
scoops from the screen, and the Scoop Shield will protect you for a limited amount of time.
There are also other bonuses you can collect.

The Levels, Flavors, and Numbers of Scoops needed to complete each level
Level Flavor # of Scoops

Stawberry 25
Vanilla 50
Chocolate 75
Mint 100
Blueberry 125
Vanilla Ch. Chip 150
Stawberry/Vanilla/Chocolate 175
Peach 200
Vanilla Chocolate Swirl 225
Double Chocolate 250
Tigersquash 275
Rainbow 300 *
Garlic 310

*This is the level that I have personally gotten to, although only temporarily...

Scoring:
Each Scoop: 5 points
With topping: X2 (Strawberry, Chocolate, & Caramel)
Cherry Bomb: 100 points (Yellow with Cherry)
Fish Head: 250 points
Oliver Head: 1000 points.
(To get the Oliver Head, you must start the game, but not the level. Be on the "get ready" screen --a huge splat of the level flavor, with the flavor name and number of scoops you need. Adee is also splatted with the level flavor, although this splat won't go against your total lives. You have to wait for Adee to change into Oliver (a blonde guy with a 5 o'clock shadow beard and an orange shirt). There'll be a sound that tells you when that happens, and the wait is about 5 minutes. The Oliver Head is random, but if you can get it, it'll net you 1000 points!)

Always grab, if possible:
Pink Scoop with Heart: Extra Life
Gray Scoop with Shield: Scoop Shield (But only for a few seconds.)
Purple Scoop with small Chia: Shrinks Chia

Grab with discrestion:
Green Scoop with "+" sign: Speeds scoops up.
Red Scoop with "-" sign: Slows scoops down.
Strawberry Bomb: Clears all scoops from screen (Red scoop with strawberry)

Avoid grabbing:
Blue Scoop with big Chia: Makes Chia grow.

Also, beaware that if a special effect is in place --caused by either of the speed scoops, or
the size scoops, grabbing the Cherry Bomb, Fish Head, Extra Life, or Scoop Shield will return
the Chia to normal, as well as reset the speed of the scoops to the level's default speed.

I hope this helps. Have fun! :D

Neoquest I & II

2005-11-03T19:07:00.000-08:00

Well, I've started playing Neoquest II (I started with Neoquest I, but you can only find that one in the Game Graveyard in the Haunted Woods.). It reminds me of Dragon Quest --which is probibly what inspired Neoquest. In Neoquest I, you are a white Lupe. In Neoquest II, you are a Yellow Blumeroo.

In both, you fight creatures, earn expereince points, upgrade skills, and explore the area. In Neoquest II, you talk to people, collect gold pieces (the currency of the game), trade and buy items, and even gather a group of adventurers together (or a "party").

Interesting little RPG. I'm sure to keep playing it off and on...

Lost Desert Plot

2005-11-01T16:55:00.000-08:00

If you haven't been to Neopets over the last two or three months, then you are unaware that much of the Lost Desert has gone missing. The city of Sakhmet, along with most of the shops and games have all disappeared. The ones that remain are:

Scarab 21
Sutek's Tomb
Pyramids
Coltzan's Shrine
Swarm

There is also some footprints leading NorthEast (upper right-hand corner). Follow them, and you'll find the scroll repository.

Keep reading the story. Eventually, I'm sure, the city will return, as will everything else.

Hi, Neopets Fans!

And welcome to my Neopets blog! I've been on Neopets for a long time, and it's a extremely fun site! For those of you who don't know, remember Tomogatchi, the cyber-pet you had to take care of all the time? Well, Neopets is like that, but thousands of times better!

You play games, feed, groom, and otherwise take care to up to four pets, buy stuff from Neoshops, and sell things from your own shop. You even get a gallery to show off your favorite items!
