Bonus: Pretty Shell Vase
Quest: A Water Faerie approaches wide-eyed. "Oh pardon me but I never thought I'd see a lantern start a forest fire underwater. I'll need some kind of Tears of the Water Faerie to put it out." - 600NP - +STR

You would think if she is that sad, she could generate the tears herself to put it it out now instead of me looking around for the jug 'o tears?

Declined the NC Quest...

:roflol: Fabio :roflol: It does look like Fabio, now that you mention it!

The Poogle background is "Breathtaking Night Sky." It is a fave ;)

No luck on getting a blooble potion today, either. 15 drops, including 2 red codestones, but not what I am after.

UPDATE BY TNT REGARDING BONUS PRIZE

Hello all,
Each year during Faerie Quest Event users who visit the event page daily will receive a bonus at the end of the event. This fact is still true!
In an effort to be more thorough in our FAQ we misspoke that users must complete each quest in order to receive the bonus which was incorrect. Users simply need to visit the event page and do not need to complete each quest. Our sincere apologies for our miscommunication here. Please note, we did not make changes to the visit bonus. Please see the updated FAQ with corrected bonus prize conditions.


This means there is no need to go into Neo Debt at a chance for the bonus prize. :)

Updated FAQ:

11. Do I have to complete a quest in order to receive a prize?

You receive a gift each day just by visiting the page, and a bonus quest if you visit every day of the event. No questing needed! That's how nice the Faerie Queen is.


*There seems to be a typo, quest instead of prize.

Awesome!

Also, I appreciate that they went about posting it multiple places. It's in the news, on the neoboards, and Jade even posted on Herdy's "Please remove quest completion requirement" board that they'd updated it.

One thing I DID learn today by scouring the boards is that there'a staff member that's been manually assigning tickets to the right people (even over the weekend - with the glitched quests) on the help chat. I didn't realize this was a thing, but it's apparently been going on for a while?!


Now...to watch the prices of the items plummet! (And watch - all of us who have been putting in wishes will suddenly get our wishes granted :lol: ) I'm just sorry for those who got one of the bad quests and paid for it just in case. (Although, Mr. P is kinda ambivalent because he hadn't actually gotten on Neo for a while and discovered that a stock he had around 15k shares of a stock that was at 129 when he checked, so there was that...)

Honestly, with the number of different quest scripts there are for this event, TJNT really did put a lot of effort in to make it more interesting. Not that there was anything wrong with it the plain old way, but they did certainly spice it up a bit. I think if there hadn't been glitches, and price gouging, it would've been better received in general. Live and learn on the rarity of the items, I guess?

On another positive side (I'm feeling positive this evening - today started off rough and has gotten better) - it did bring the community together to help each other. I mean, yes, some people were clearly gouging (there will always be those), but helping each other find items/gifting when possible, finding ways of getting the items, etc. I'm not sure I would've thought to check for battledome drops or the wishing well if others on the neoboards hadn't suggested it first - and were willing to suggest it to help out, when they could've kept it to themselves and enjoyed the price gouging.

I just won another flaming blooble potion. A quick price check revealed they've already dropped to 50k. So it's in my SDB in case anyone needs it...

Bonus: Decorating Faerie Cakes
Quest: An Air Faerie approaches and she looks like she's just been through a wind-tunnel. "*Breathing heavily* That "Breeze in a Can" is no good. In tiny print it says "May cause hurricanes" but who reads that stuff? Honestly! Any chance you could help me calm the storms? I'll need Golden Sun Chalice.

"Hurricane in a chalice" doesn't have quite the same ring to it as "tempest in a teapot," but sure... For 1475 NP, it's worth having a bit more movement in case I ever use an item that requires it...

Bonus: Battle Faerie Sofa
QUest: "If you don't mind, I find myself in a bind. That twine that I bought, did more than I thought. Now I can't stop rhyming and it's terrible timing, because my sisters will think my magic's declining. To counter the effect I'll need Unguberry Elixir I suspect. Please hurry, it's really quite confining."... Paid 7k - not ok. But at least a cure I found for her! - +HP

Declined the NC Quest

Day 7
Bonus: Faerie Grundo Sugar Cookie
Quest: With a bang, a Dark Faerie appears... and with another bang her necklace pops smoke into her face. "*Coughing* You mean this cursed "Curse Maker" even ruins my cool entrance?! No fair. You there! This "Curse Maker chain" that I bought. It was supposed to curse others but it's stuck on self-curse. I need Balsa Wood Shield. -- 2.5k -- +HP

Bonus: Light of the Faeries Jam
It's pretty, but I sure wouldn't want to eat it...

Then again, it'd go with Blue's birthday theme!

Quest: Dark Faerie, Super U-Bend,
And My SW tab refreshed itself... and my other two did, too... *sigh* Why are regular faeries asking for R85 items?!

Yes. Yes, it would.

I would definitely not want to eat that Jam. Is it pretty? Sure is. But it's made with foxgloves... Foxglove poisoning can cause heart block and either bradycardia or tachycardia, depending on the how much one ingests.

ETA: Woot! Finally received a Flaming Blooble Potion drop in the BD!

Still haven't managed to restock the super u-bend. Might have to cancel this quest.
