Aren't you afraid of being chain-frozen? :o Or do you not SS at all?
And you use different emails for all the shells?

 

I see about the games. I suppose that would be logical. (: Guess you avoid avatar games, huh.

 

In fact, I'm always a bit concerned about getting iced, especially because if that happens my main account will be frozen too (and despite the fact it isn't a SUPER account, I found myself very attached to it), but it's a risk I'm willing to take.

 

The only time I used SS it was during the AAA, because I played it on 10 accounts - I couldn't physically play all that, since I have a life lol. But I wasn't too greedy to play it to win gold in all accounts, so I guess that went fine too (I actually only got gold in two accounts, a thing I regret because that Stamp is AWESOME  :().

 

Yes, an email for every shell. What is a pain in the ass because after a period of time the emails are disabled (I forget to login at least every 90 days xD) and I have to create new ones to give the illusion that the accs are being taken care).

 

I tend to avoid avatar games, yes. But this month was an exception: I won 8 - but it was "newbie" games (meerca chase, snowmuncher, etc.) so I'm expecting it didn't raise any flags.

 

 

 

Wow, now that I see it. I have a lot of trouble. O_o

I create them because of the event/plot/sponsor thingies. It's just a way to feed my hoarding issues. lol
 
Same computer, same screen resolution. One browser to shells and another to my main account.
 
Only recently I started to invest in game avatars/trophies, so no, I don't get scores reviewed often.
In the last month I got three score reviews only on my main account (it's the only one I play actively to increase trophy/avatar numbers) all accepted without any trouble. 
I use AoB Cheat Engine and I don't go straight to high scores. Since I decided to get trophies without raise much suspicions I chose a game, play it for several days, increasing my score  a small % of at time. That way IF score gets reviewed and TNT decide to check, I have a background of "failed" tries.
 
I prefer get a dozen a trophies in one year than get frozen by doing something stupid.
Takes a lot of time and a bit trouble but, so far it's working smoothly and I'm happy with it. :)

 

omg that's a lot of work though, i usually get 3 or 4 trophies every reset just playing legit and it'll be like my first time playing those games, it's not really suspicious if you just do it legit and lots of trophies are really easy on reset. i think that's less work than cheating for a few days and building up to a score :p

Yeah, almost all of my trophies are from right around the reset when the scores are low enough that it doesn't seem overwhelmingly suspicious to suddenly have a higher score than usual.

But I can't win trophies legitimately because I really suck at games and they're boring and I don't like them.

Ok, the only one I can play in a daily basis and -in fact- won a legit trophy it was Escape to Kreludor, I love that game. :p

I worked really hard for my first trophy. Won on the 1st day of the month and everything. After that I decided it wasn't worth it any more (thus I use AoB :p) The only games I really like are the ones that are impossible to get good scores at (Shenkuu Warrior I, anyone?)

After reading the countless issues of people being iced for the tiniest reasons, I am really, really, lucky.

Hell, I never logged into my account for 8 years and never got purged. Sometimes I feel I'm getting trapped into a false sense of security.

 

EDIT: Also, sorry to hear about your being iced :(

I used to LOVE neo games SO much when I was a newbie... :o

But after a decade playing them I think they take too long, are quite boring, or not rewarding enough (spend ~20 minutes to get 1000 NP? :().

The fact is, AoB made me see games in another perspective, and I don't find them so repulsive as I used to think a couple of months ago, but yet, I'm not intend to waste hours playing it to make them my source of income. (I get bored after 5 minutes and start to count the stripes on my curtains xD).

Oh my. Shenkuu Warrior I. Yes, you're right. Along with Escape to Kreludor, maybe Shenkuu Warrior I is the game I can play for hours without even noticing.

I still remember the day it came out. All the people I used to talk on the bards hated it and I felt I was weird of something because I liked it so much.

I never tried for the trophy, but maybe I should think about it.  :ph34r:

Strategy for not getting iced:

Autobuy

Post on a random PC board about how the pet above you might have been stolen

Feel sense of security as TNT gets swarmed with too many tickets and reports to notice that you abed

I wouldn't count on that. TNT has programs to red-flag autobuyers (based on buy times, frequency of purchasing rare items, etc) and might not even need a staff member to manually go through the records.

I only autobuy because one too high or fast score on some of the games can get u iced quick

For not getting frozen:
1. Don't be stupid.
2. Common sense.
You can still get frozen as TNT is awful, but you can try and minimize risk by doing this.

And you use different emails for all the shells?

I see about the games. I suppose that would be logical. (: Guess you avoid avatar games, huh.

They use an AOB (array of bites) to change things on the game, like unlimited lives. It's safer than SSing but still has a risk. We have a forum for AOB's. So they don't use the SS. To do AOB you need a program called "cheat engine".

I used AoB for a few trophies. (: It doesn't make much of a difference NP wise though, does it? :(

If, say, I wanted to make a shell on the same IP as my main, what are the things TNT will chain freeze me for?

AoB doesn't make win more NP. Only change how game "works": enemies don't kill you, or picking up -for example on the EfMC- stars will grant you more points, etc. 

 

TNT can freeze you for anything they want. I would bet on randomness lol.

 

But, like someone who has a couple of shells on the same IP: don't be too greedy. 

- Don't exchange high value items on a daily basis;

- Create a decent shell: some easy trophies, customized Pets, etc. - something to give the impression someone is actually taking care of the account.;

- Pick up a userlookup/Petlookup layout from some site;

- Use two different computers if you can;

- Exchange NMs between the two accounts. Game tips, talking about Pets, bla bla. Same IP, TNT will assume people know each other... - And it's fun talking to yourself xD

 

I think the most important thing is to put yourself in other shoes and think if your account look legit.

Because IP is not everything. You could have a family of neopets players (mum, dad, sister, grandma, dog, parakeet); you could have a lot of brothers that play neopets too; you could be working in a place where other people plays too, etc. Same IP doesn't mean same person, or even same computer.

 

Or maybe none of these things matter and you can count only on lucky.

Wouldn't it be better not to associate your shells/main with each other?

 

Also, now both my cats officially play neopets :D

How many trophies do you think in, say, a month, is safe?

I'd say get 1-3 new trophies / month. At start you can actually get a bit more if you play the easy non-flash games (pyramids, solitaire, cellblock etc.)

Only if you want to keep the items/pets/whatever you get in your shells only in your shells.

In my case, since I use them to AB, get Pets and event/dailies items and then send them to main main I thought it'd be "smarter" make the accounts NF and exchange NM between them.

 

I actually don't know. But common sense always says to not be too greedy. Don't put yourself under the radar of those players who watch HST on a daily basis. It's suspicious if a newbie account is getting gold trophies every day, specially if the only games played are the ones with trophies.

And don't go straight to trophy score. :/

 

 

P.S.: meow =^-^=


Bob, Snow Wars, Cellblock...

 

Yes! 

Pyramids, Cheat.

NQI/II are a pain in the butt, but it'll show effort! I personally think they're cute trophies lol

 

Don't forget the avatars! You can get nearly 100 basic avvies, just a click away. That will make a new account look better

Actually, I only cheat on my 7yr old main as of now :p So I already have all the basic trophies and 200+ avatars, as well as a ton of games played w/already pretty decent scores. Like you, I've slowly been building up my scores to the trophy scores. So far I've only gotten 2 reviews(of which one passed, no response on the other). I've gotten like 7 trophies in a month this way. (I actually got a couple accidentally while AOBing :p))

 

My cats do use the computer! Ri=y7uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu,lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllk
^see, that was my kitty walking on the keyboard... she has a computer fetish. 

 

I just made a couple of new shells on my main IP. I'm going to have to wait a while before I can do this stuff, I guess.

Patience is the key, but people with new accounts, specially those who were recently frozen tend to forget this, maybe because they're angry or they just discovered a new way to cheat.

Couple weeks ago I stumble upon a newbie account with 15 gold trophies. Extreme Potato Counter, Typing Terror, etc. Of course, no more than 2 day later it was frozen.

 

So, you seem a really smart girl, take good care of those shells and they soon will make you very happy. :p

 

 

 

I love cats, I wish I could have one, but my husband is allergic and my dog would kill it anyway. :/
