Aside from ABing, what was the luckiest thing to happen to you on Neopets? Have you ever won the jackpot on say... Test your strength? Have you ever caused the coconut to explode in coconut shy? etc.

I've always been pretty lucky about getting the avatars that take most people a year or two of doing a single daily to get, like the Ruins of Geraptiku or the Lever of Doom after a mere 2 clicks.

not lucky at all I guess the only thing that counts is that I've won the dice a roo jackpot a few times but i also played A LOT

[imbiez]

My luckiest moment was about a year or so ago while playing Cellblock when Dr. Sloth gave me a Krawk Transmogrification Potion.
I think I got about 7.5m from it. I gotta say, that was a pretty good day

Hmm... In all my years of on and off playing, The only thing that I remember as something lucky was when I got a gnar off the test your strength. Or when I knocked over a coconut. nothing major.

I got someone else frozen, TNT froze them, or she felt cornered and had to self-freeze. I was just too annoyed of them. They ABed and SSed, but I honestly don't give a fuck about that. I was more bothered that she was just too obnoxious and really was a pain in the ass in both the guild I'm in, the AC, and the BDC. They spoke in r00d language (much worse than ch4t5p33K) which irks me so. So I reported something as simple as an impossible score. They got frozen the next day.

I consider this very lucky because of the following:
1. TNT gave a fuck about my report (or actually did their job, idgaf)
2. I was about to full on-curse via boards and neomail and her being frozen saved my 60+ month main from silencing.
3. They never spammed any boards and the world is now tolerable.

I always seem to have a lot of luck when auction sniping - the stuff that I almost always get, I make a lot of money on, and the stuff I don't get, would've turned out to be a loss in the end.

hate you. I am always shit out of luck with auction sniping...remember those trillionftw auctions? I'd come so close on a few of those only to walk away with absolutely nothing

[Rainie]

Sometimes I think I rank somewhere in the top ten most unlucky people ever, but then on the other hand..
None of my accounts/shells have been frozen (yet)
&If auction sniping counts, I've auction sniped tons of rare items (Krawk & Draik eggs/MPs/trans before the deflation, etc.) and sold them off for very nice profits before ~
(Although I really don't think that it should count since it's not necessarily all about luck)

[likerobots]

hm, i'm alright.

many years ago, say five, i was gven a draik Tpot.
I morphed a crappy named pet. I lent the pet out, and on the second lend, it was lost. however, the user i was lending gave me their krawk as a compensation for losing the pet.
I also lost the krawk a while ago, but the user payed me back around 1-2m
this was actually right before the krawk deflation, so now i'm really glad that i don't have the krawk anymore ...


i've also gotten crazy luck on a few accounts. in the past 4 months i've gotten 3 FFQs, which is damned awesome

[Senrath]

I've gotten 3 Draik Eggs from the Forgotten Shore in the last two weeks or so. By my calculations I've used up all of my luck for the next decade, and will end up losing everything within a month.

[Napiform]

So far, I haven't been lucky at all. I'm optimistic enough to say I think my luck is changing though.

[Jabberwock]

I have pretty good luck not only in Neopets, but irl as well. It's pretty weird if you ask me. People like to take me to the casino with them.

As for Neopets, I have most of the random avatars and got them within a short time period. I rarely open things like goody bags or treasure chests, but when I do it's usually something pretty good. I've also had 5 FFQs so far (all within 11 years, mind you)

Well, in real life, I also have a lot of luck avoiding punishment - although whether luck is just a factor or the whole shebang, I don't know.

One time I was trolling the Newbie boards commenting on random troll-worthy stuff and got someone frozen for insulting me. (Before the muting or w/e they do now) I felt very successful after that. ;p

Otherwise, I have actually made the Coconut explode in Coconut Shy... I couldn't believe it. lol (This was on a different, now frozen account) I spent all of the money on Kelp and didn't succeed...

[Jaws]

Luck... well before mootix deflated and were still at 2.5m or so I managed to get two through the RE, one on two of my accounts while running Abrosia, made a nice 4.5m profit right before they went crashing down!

[Zangetsu]

I am not lucky, not unlucky.

[Sweeney]

On average, the same amount of lucky as everyone else.

[Fireworks]

Winning a halloween pb from Test Your Strength. I used to think it was a fake.

Otherwise, I'm as un/lucky as a very old account can get, without FFQ once.
