two winning neomails in mystery pic

Tue Jan 25, 2005 11:18 pm

i was quietly playing my game of plushie tycoon and get the usual neomail

Congratulations! You have guessed correctly in the Mystery Pic game (Round 372). We have given you 2000 NP!

I deleted the mail. Told my friends on IM i won, then around 2 minutes later i get the neomail again and a further 2000nps.

I just reported it as a bug but was a little shocked to say the least.

And someone in my guild just reported the same thing happening to them.
Won two stamps and the nps.

Hm...Wonder if you clicked the button twice and somehow it entered you twice?

Niffty though.

It's not a matter of a double submission, just an error in the programming that sends out multiple "bonuses." It should be allright... this error in multiple wins has happened before and TNT has been fine with it as far as winning multiple amounts of Neopoints and prizes.

Just be glad it wasn't a Meepit Lamp as the prize. :P

How did you discard the nps?
On the money tree?

Well I mean I donated the NPS.
Discarded the items.
They don't freeze you.
If they did, Rune would be frozen and so would 500 other people.
Do we all look frozen?
No!

I submitted a bug report and just got this response:

Hi,

Thanks for the inquiry you submitted!

Thank you very much for reporting this bug. We will allow you to keep the extra stamp and neopoints you received for your honesty. Thank you and take care.

Sincerely,
The Neopets Team


I guess it looks like you can keep the extra stamp and NPs
