I guess they could have given us all TCG cards for a prize. *grin* It's funny how absolutely hard those are to trade.

That makes me laugh! Though it is hard to laugh when TNT gave me the worst war prize.
One more thing to laugh at is that Whack-A-Staff-Member will soon be the most played game.

I got 3 points and the same thing. This is horrible for all you hard-core battlers.
I was extremely opposed to the Day of Action, and I don't really like boycotts. Just bug Neopets, they'll probably fix it. I'll send a question to the Editorial, I urge you all to do the same.

Thank you for supporting the Thieves in the recent battle. Unfortunately you were on the losing side, but nevertheless you have been granted Clockwork Icy Skeleton and 1,000 NP!!! Your fantastic score was 1,038 battle points!
...
Makes me regret those hours I wasted battling and that NP I used on the cures.

I remember the Day of Action. I participated in it. And that was the day I realized that Neopets is my life.

*nudges Adam* Oh hush.
I seem to do weird typos at times. Least this was was mild compared to one typo I did. 
I used to be good a Whack aa Staff...I'll need to fine tune myself again.

Hey, I didn't even get to BE in the war, because I was frozen for two months. So at least be grateful for SOMETHING, but be enraged for getting VERY LITTLE.

I think that's an awesome idea!!!
We couldn't get their attention by not playing on their site, why not try to get it by playing their site more!!!
In act of protest I say we send Whack-A-Staff Member to the most played game of their site! They visit this site so they'll know what's going on, but its just one more way to show them that we're more than a bunch of lazy disgruntled users and that we're actually capable of doing something when we work together!

I posted this idea on IDB but i'll post it again here.
TNT cant give away weapons worthy of the people scoring the score they got(aka give away a weapon to everyone that they could accually use) as that would cause massive deflation. So instead of giving people lame weapons that get them all upset, create a plushie set. The top ranking scoers would get the best plushie, while lower scores would get differnt plushies. Plushies would basically be given out via rank(aka footpad gets one plushie, blackgarud gets another). Each plushie would be differnt, so that you could show off your score rank in style in your shop, or sell them to collectors. Lowerdown ranks would be merged(aka all under 100 would get the T-shirt "plushie") This way people get a fun toy, you dont get tons of people getting the same weapon, and guys dont get disapointed because their war prize stunk.

wow.. that's pathetic. tnt really screwed up on this one. I feel sorry for all those people who got in the few thousands and got the same crummy prize.
EDIT: holy crap. I just checked my other account and got this:
Thank you for supporting Hannah in the recent battle. You were, of course, on the winning side so you have been granted Clockwork Icy Skeleton and 1,000 NP!!! Your fantastic score was 1 battle points!
yep... 1 battle point and I still got the same prize. This is ludicrous.

My beef (as well as many other people around here) is *not* that it was a toy that was the "booby" prize. I don't really care at all what the actual prize was ... so it doesn't bother me that the prize was a clockwork icy skeleton.
I *do* take offense that people from 0 up to 3500 points got the same exact prize. I completely agree ... they cannot give out cool weapons to everyone that participated ... that would totally mess up the economy of the battledome weapons. I was actually not expecting a weapon that I would actually be able to use.
I don't think I would be expecting too much in my "prize" at all by just asking for a distinction between the ranks. Sure ... people will claim "but you already have a cooler trophy on your lookup." True enough ... but that argument is just lame. I already had this trophy before they gave out the "prize" for the war.
If they would have just made another prize called a "Super Clockwork Icy Skeleton Zombie" and changed the color of their image to pink or something ... at least that would have showed they *slightly* cared.
Of course, we'd all be mad about that as well ... but it would at least show a little effort.

Hopefully, just hopefully.
I'll put my mallet down if they do.
If not, it is whacking time!

Well although it was Hannah and the Ice Caves, TNT did say that it would include 2 battles. So technically there should be 2 sets of prizes? Cause there were 2 battles even though it was 1 war... My 2 Cents.
My art is not the best but taking a look at all the prizes TNT dished out, the best looking one is the clockwork thingy and the bringer plush. The rest of the items look like your typical low level weapons found in many other RPG games. And i really mean LOW level !!! Just take a look ....
