I was involved in an unofficial gift war once, but it got expensive REAL fast. It starts out with small one to five Neopoint items. The idea is to send someone something SLIGHTLY more valuable than what they sent you. So if you got something worth 5 Neopoints, you'd send them something worth 10 Neopoints. After 20 bing-bops back and forth it starts to get REALLY pricey. You lose if you are too poor to keep up. I don't know what the official rules are for THIS one. I sure wish whoever started this would post the rules... (I'm NOT participating, by the way...) Oh ... so that's how it works. x.x Wish somebody had mentioned that sooner ... like, before we started? ... oh well. ::runs off to find something to throw back at wolf:: |

Do you do like... one person at a time, or a bunch of people or what?

Question: Are we supposed to send to one person, more than one, or is it something that tis advised to do one, but you can do more if you have more, or what?

Sent some random things to several people... still not too sure of the rules but I'm guessing you just give people things? Whatever... I've got too much stuff laying around anyway. (It comes of attempting to get the Pack Rat avatar, and quitting midway through  ) |

KKM posted this on the "Illegal gift wars?" thread in Neopets General:
Still waiting for Rider's OFFICIAL rules, though.

[glow=red,2,300]My apologies for not being on! Eeep!
Anyway, Stone's right. Pelt each other with inexpensive gifts to start. There are no real "losers", so if you can't afford the gifts (like me) just keep pelting people with jellies, and we'll keep pelting you back. That way, those of us who are dirt-poor can still play.[/glow]

EDIT: Has just been attacked by a Green Chomby Plushie sent from General Jinjolover. Retaliated with a burning cup of Snowberry Tea.
AH HAH! Take that you Chomby master!
Ooh; why didn't I see this one sooner? I have a whole load of items in my SDB that I need to get rid of. My username is christinetran.

I think I've hit everyone participating... Except Potato. Potato, I'll send you something when there's room for it in your inventory.
Anyway, I believe all the gifts I sent weren't 1 np gifts... I believe the cheapest one I sent was 200 NP, so, don't worry, nobody should be getting COMPLETE trash...
This game is an AWESOME way to clear a inventory and a safety deposoit box... ;D
Anyway, I probably won't do the higher-higher thing, I'll just probably continuously pelt random items (mostly Mystery Island Fruit) at people. And Medicinal Mud Bath. ;D

Oh, by the way, Jinjo, if I sent you two Snowberry Tea thingies...it was an accident. I was trying to send everyone at least one item and I guess I gave you another one as well.
*sends a bottle of perfume your way*
