So, fun speculation game.

What do you think the rare, unique items that you could get in the grab bag will be?

My guess would be r100+ items... but did they actually go through and select them or did they just make a range. Because if they just made a range that may very well mean you'll get a cheap item as sometimes rarity isn't always indicative how rare the item is but rather sometime how old TNT used to categorize items (like all items from plots, events, and cannot be normally purchased from a Neopian shop are 101, some were used to indicate Hidden Tower weapons, other TCG cards, etc.).

Pet is already at 750+ HP and now I need to train 5 more levels to be able to train the other stats that aren't at 750 yet... D:

Went for Perk Me Up a few times because there were a few perks I really wanted there. I did have to forego a few, but I did get what I want, which makes me happy.

Got Prized Possessions (I need. those. codestones), Zapped (now got a pastel Xwee), and Bring Back the Old Days (finally got that monster hunting theme).

I also got Random Acts of Kindness, since I got it last year and I really liked the things I got from it. Day 1...

A chill runs up your spine and you feel someone behind you. Thankfully, it's just Jacko the Phantom painter here to give you Pink Paint Brush. He quickly fades away, and you decide to focus on your new item so you don't get the creeps.

Looking at JN, that's almost 1 mil. Considering I didn't buy anything for Charity Corner other than stocking up on Sticky Snowballs, I consider that a really nice profit on my end.

EDIT: Due to me trying to use Perk Me Up when it was glitchy, I got 2000 points back, so I used it again. I got Bring Back the Old Days again, which is exactly what I wanted! (After this one, I have 97 points left, so if I chose to forego the perk, I wouldn't be able to use it again.) I got the Obelisk site theme now.

I'm still using Monster Hunting, but I'm glad to have that as an option now. I like having a variety.

May everyone's Random Acts perk be better than mine.

[Patjade]

I got the two I wanted; Bank Bribery and Cheaper By The Dozen, with enough left over to get Spiked! twice. I probably won't spend my remaining points.

So, I've been saltier than seawater since 2011 when I didn't get the Krawk Island Site Theme despite working very hard on that plot (Maybe I missed a day? I don't know) and when I saw I had an opportunity to get a retired site theme through this event I was intrigued! But full well knowing my luck (which is very low) I wouldn't likely get it, but I decided to try for it anyway. I only had enough points for one shot, so y'know, quite a lot of eggs for one basket.

And guess who got it! =D =D 8 years later I finally get what I rightfully deserved - in my head, anyway XD

[doctortomoe]

So are all the perks working? JN says they are, but I keep seeing boards pop up that they aren't.

[Fraze]

Day 1: got the random event perk, and nothing happened so I figured it would activate the next day.
Day 2: got a lab map RE and also a Christmas PB just kind of showed up sitting in my inventory, so I guess that was for day 1.
Day 3: no RE (possibly missed it) but found a morphing potion in my inventory. So the perk seems to be working in terms of awarding things.

At the end I got 30,661 points.

Spent 18,000 on Bank Bribery and Cheaper By the Dozen, nice to have them back.

Spent another 4k on Random Acts and while I did get a Garin Stamp (3 mil, a very nice profit considering I didn't spend anything, just donated from my SDB), got nothing else.

I spent another 4k for the second Random Acts which I'm in the middle of. Nothing notable so far.

And I still have 4,661 points left. After the AC I'll figure out what to do with then.

I got the bank bribery and stock option boons, increased my BD item cap for two weeks (while doing my annual month of premium, so nerkmid bonus was nice), and got one of the exclusive items. Using the rest of my points on Cartogriphication, and it looks like each use is actually good for two days -- it goes for 24 hours, so if you head to the caverns right after activating and then the next day a bit earlier, it works both days.

[doctortomoe]

So looks like the Petpet Zapped perk is back up.

You can't get lab ray colors from it.

[Herdy]

It also just does colour and not species, so it's only real use is if you don't already have your dream Petpet, it happens to be one painted one of the more expensive options, and you don't have 3 mill to buy one. Fairly niche.

[doctortomoe]

It's sad. I REALLY wanted a Chocolate Quilin

[mollyscribbles]

Just an update -- the cartogriphication perk has a cap of 10 uses.
