Want a guide for trophies? Sure, here goes:
Play games on the first of the month before trophies are awarded 4.30-4.45am NST (this time may have changed). This is because game high scores reset and are thus the easiest time to get a trophy because all the hard-out gamers *usually* try and wait a week maybe less, before reclaiming their high score table spot to give others a chance to get trophies (this was my philosophy anyway).
If you suck at games and can't get close to a high score table, then go for any of the following games as they are given out for reaching a certain level not because you're actually better than most of neopet players: cheat, go go go, pyramids, cellblock, sahkmet solitaire, snow wars (the battleship game not the flash game), Neoquest I and II and beat up punchbag bob. Most of these (all but NQ I and II) don't require much effort to get a bronze trophy.
Hope that helps

Kitsune.... the times have changed, to 11 AM.... so now anyone and everyone is on before the scores get sent in..... it's not that easy to get trophy scores anymore. the scores are still kinda low @ 11AM but they aren't the type of scres that anyone could acheve...
