Usually JN, SN, or TDN are able to find some pics or names of some of the prizes from the prize shop, but so far nothing.

 

Maybe there are no prizes, yet.

I look at the new items on JN every day. I thought too that something might show up. But, as you say, absolutely nothing to indicate war prizes. Have other plots/wars/whatever taken this long to be wrapped up?

They wouldn't post whatever prizes they find in the newest items page, they would just post it on their news page/front page.

 

Iirc it usually takes 2-3 weeks for any prize shops to come out both for plots and stuff like the AC.

2-3 weeks? Oh, best be patient for a while longer then. Or well, trying to be patient, anyway.

[woah23]

That is if the prizes are good, Ruins of the faeries plot prizes was good imo. The least that TNT could salvage something from this plot is the prizes. Hopefully, they dont screw this up!

[imagina]

Well, at least the plot artwork was nice. I'm not getting my hopes up on the prizes though, too afraid to be let down.

[cluttergum]

I don't understand why in the world they are taking so long. Certainly they have enough staff and computers to figure it out by now. Maybe they're toying with everyone for entertainment. Afterall, there are a lot of boards on neo complaining about it. (But I would be too if I didn't loathe posting on there.)

They have ALWAYS taken this long. It doesn't make a difference why. I'm not sure why people are surprised this is taking a while.

You'd think after being around for so long TNT would have developed a system to speed things up.

Oh who am I kidding?

But don't they prepare all the junk for the plot before actually releasing it and such? 

 

Wouldn't it be easier, and more (dare I suggest user friendly?) that way? >.<

Apparently so.

Unless they work on and finish the content hours before they release it. That would explain the site issues that always arise.

A fairly recent editorial said that content was planned months in advance, so one can assume that everything is already made and prepared. TNT is just lazy IMHO. IDC anymore, I just want my prizes. And avatar. D:

Or maybe its all just a conspiracy and they're just trying to draw it out for as long as possible to keep people on the site....

 

Spoiler

I agree  with you. They are far too lazy.

All the stuff that goes into the plot/war/whatever are planned in advanced not all of the prizes though.

TNT have said they look at the boards and such to see what becomes popular subjects/jokes (Jazan guyliner and the stone pie from TFR for example) and incorporate them as prizes. They always try to put memes, old and current, into the prizes as well.

Because being original is stupid when you can leech off the internet.

Maybe it would take even longer for TNT to release the Prize shop if they didn't lol.

[Elindoril]

Well if they worked on the content for months prior to releasing it one would think an idea for a prize or two would come up during the development stages.

I guess I just assume too much.

I think TNT just gets a kick out of watching us squirm..they are the ultimate trolls.

Always truthful.

 

In any case, looks like we have a while to wait before any news. I'm still holding my breath for a full-out plot based around the winner.

[woah23]

I think you shouldnt put your hopes that high. In any case, I think we have to wait a couple of years before the next plot comes out.The profit from those training cookies might just encourage them to commence another sub standard plot=/

Not that. -.-

I think it's silly that the plot ended weeks ago and there STILL hasn't been a single update.
