Mine is just sitting at 'calculating'. Then again, I do have a relatively new account right now. Could that have to do with it?

Mine was "calculating" for nearly 30 minutes, and never finished, so I just gave up.

I liked how they referenced a few things though, like name changer, lutari island, all the neopets riches / paintbrushes things.

Yeah it was obvious that they know exactly what their fans want.  Nice to know that they think our needs/wants are a joke. :(

I really hope they 'fix' the calculator and they release some of these things.

Same here... Sadly I think it would kind of ruin the already terrible state of affairs on the site if they let us have that stuff.  The only way they could do that without ruining everything is if they were about to shut down the site, in which case I don't think they'd bother doing anything special anyway.

Idk, I think they could release UC pets again though. Like a limited present for one month for everyone who buys premium or so.. JS will earn more and everyone except those who already own an UC (not a lot of people?idk) will be happy.  The prices on UC pets are ridiculously high rn.

I would be happy if...they just fixed some of the things that basically broke specifically cos *they had to move to JS servers (AAA, Habi, Keyquest for examples?)

 

(*Disclaimer: Not sure if accurate, that's what I heard really)

Me too! I really loved playing it. It ran every day and night with me, and with a fastclicker I think I gained 200k a day or so.

It was an amazing source of income.

Key Quest was fun when I could get it to work, which was almost never.

I loved playing on my main and on a shell, then I could make sure I always won. So I always got the codestones and map pieces and whatever other nice stuff it gave out.

KeyQuest was a pain in the ass for me. Back then I had an extremely slow computer together with an extremely slow internet. Playing that game was impossible but I still attempted to do it. Never again

I did that too! And in the very beginning before I knew about proxies I just played with my side the whole time, it got me banned once I sent something over :p

I also played with a friend and we let each other win.

Even with the fastest internet in my area, Key Quest and my computer didn't like each other.

I always lost in Keyquest, partly due to internet, but. Partly due to skill. :p

And YESS I *looved* the shit out of my Habi. Found myself kept logging in to Neopets just to continue on playing. And I wasn't even cheating then. XD

I mean, most of the Neopets games are like, not particularly good imitations of other games out there on the Internet. Habi and to lesser extent Keyquest were two which didn't feel so much like that.

They should release more adult-looking items.

If only JS caught up to that, eh? Must have a sizeable userbase of nostalgic adults in Neopets by now.

The "adult" Neopets, where you have to send in a waiver, similar to if your under 13.

Yeah, something like that, I suppose! And. No more filters and censorship where you can't link to things outside Neo/approved fansites and all. That's, like just so outdated etc. (But that's all been said so many times before I suppose.)

So was the joke that the thing never calculated anything or was it just the general idea there would be an elite money club? Because if its the first fair enough, but if its the second and they couldnt even get the april fools joke to work this is truly running downhill now.
