The Cyodrake's Gaze plot maybe

[silverlilly1]

I don't think they're all neopets-made accounts, since three are varying amounts older and have significant amounts of "settling-in" (neohomes, user lookups, games, avatars, trophies). Two were both started in July this year though. Seems odd that someone who's only been playing since July 29 has gotten so far with neohomes and poetry, but maybe that's because I've never really gotten into those things. Maybe we should check petpages.

I've read somewhere that the ship is now at Lutari island. I don't know if it's true or it's just another rumour, but can someone explain me? I thought it was for mobiles only, and you couldn't see the page of lutari island on the site

[Catastrophic]

I'd be pretty upset if this was a plot only for people with access to Lutari Island...I'm already insanely curious about it and ready to participate and finding out that I'd have to pay to do it would not be good news.

I'll only believe its at Lutari Island with proof!

I go away for the weekend and not only do I miss the altador cup prizes rush, but the ship's disapeared!

You wait for weeks and weeks for something to happen and the one weekend you go out...

bah.

Anyone have any ideas of where it could be?

It could just be sailing somewhere else at the moment. This could end up being the same as the beginning of the Altador plot when everyone first had access to their telescope. I remember searching for a constellation for hours, until we found out a constellation hadn't even been released yet... maybe we'll have to wait for a few days for the ship to dock somewhere else?

I thought Evan made that discovery, though? But I don't often read the front page, so I probably have no idea what I'm really talking about.

No, one of the users did. I guess she googled "Shenkuu" and the Kou-Jong page had it in the description at one time cause it came up, but going to the link shows TNT changed it. Something tells me they didn't want us to know that much.

Apperently the Premium users knew something of Kou-Jong before it was released to everyone else.

Premium members were able to beta test Kou-Jong a day or two before the ship appeared at Krawk Island.

"Shenkuu" was at that time included in the narration on the game page. It is the name of the land the ship traveled from, not the ship's name. (The ship's name is the Cyodrake's Gaze.)

After beta testing for about a day, the game was taken off beta testing and the description had the name "Shenkuu" removed before the ship appeared at Krawk Island.

As for the Lutari Island rumour, I believe it is simply a rumour. It was posted up at Jellyneo for a short while, but apparently taken down when it couldn't be proven.

As I've posted elsewhere, I think it's a rumour like the one where if you have all the Lutari beads you can get to Lutari Island. That was an untrue rumour probably made up by someone wanting to sell extra Lutari beads for a lot of neopoints.

Those were all *web* based activities on the ship, not phone based. Since Lutari Island is a phone based world thus far, they would have had to make two versions of every activity. I just don't see Neopets doing that.

I was also surprised that a newbie would already have 139 avatars. Unless she's not really a newbie -- maybe she got frozen or hacked and started over.

You can get over 84 avatars just from clickables. I have about that many on all my sides from about an hour's worth of work each.

[goldyurble]

if this is a plot, could the ship sink? maybe while on its way to mystery island.
whoever knows where is lutari located?

They're already going for 150k each! I hope this doesn't end up in Lutari. Maybe that new undiscovered island above it....

Yes, I know that, but s/he still has another 50 that are not so easy to get -- since July. But she's in an avatar guild, so I guess that makes sense. Getting back to the topic, I think she's a legit player, and not a fake account that's part of the plot.

[Daze]

"Fake" accounts made by TNT for a plot would stand out. Such as game trophys for games not played or really bizarre stats when it is obvious it couldn't happen.

Avatars are not that hard to get especially if you have a main account to access.

You only have to think back about the poems in those newbie accounts, that everyone on the boards thought was real for the Altador Plot.


It seems we just have to wait for TNT to release a clue.
