I know that some people don't do a lot of these dailies because it "isn't worth it", but I say that while you have a slim chance of winning the lottery if you buy a ticket every day, you have no chance if you never play.

i agree with you if you dont play are you going to win ? lol

[luvsmyncis]

I've won 2 PBs from the Fruit Machine over the years. One was a cloud PB many years ago when that was worth something, and then recently an Electric one.

Wow. You're a lucky dawg. I've been playing over 8 years and have only ever gotten shitty fruit my pets won't eat.

[jonnykun]

well..still nothing for me.
let's change the thread to if you win something from tombola or fruit machine post here!

There is no point to that at all.
It's not like you're gonna win something grand and spectacular apart from codestones, faeries etc.

[PeonYourLawn]

It's two clicks for a chance to win bottle faeries or codestones. Come one, it can't be that bad. Just starting this topic, you used the time to click it maybe...20 times.

Plus its free. Word.

Although I've never gotten anything special from the fruit machine in the 8 years I've been playing neopets.

Free is win, and seriously, you can toss those faeries and codestones into your SDB until a war starts and then make some serious cash.

[Atmosphere]

I want a fucking codestone. .
Stupid useless spooky foods.

And coltzan's fucking useless for weeks.
I hardly get anything good out of this dailies.

Best one was getting a pinata.
I want my goddamn pb from the fruit machine.

Maybe try being nicer to the dailies and asking politely? =P

[Devilfish]

Meh, dailies take about 15 minutes of my time, I can't be bothered to go and make effort-profit speadsheets about it. I usually get about 2000 np from that discarded plushie and Coltzan's shrine has been very kind to me as well. And I get my codestones from Key Quest, so it's all good

[Kuraz]

actually is it said that when we win, we may receive "Tombola Token" as prize?

Last month I won a Purple PB so it does happen..

Do you mean a Key Quest Token? That'd be cool, because I play that game a LOT and I'm getting so sick of my Meerca. And those plushies you can buy with a code look like they'd burst at the seems if you look at them the wrong way. Neopets are so cute, why do those plushies look so shabby and freaky?

lol i thought everyone started with a random one, ......so that means people actually paid for them?

Yeah, you get registration codes with collectible cards and plushies. I was thinking of buying a plushie for my little niece for Christmas and keeping the code, but they look absolutely horrid. And they're retiring them too, I think. They've announced that in the future you'll be able to get tokens on the site (there was a chance to get an AAA one a while ago) but until then, anyone who hasn't coughed up has to make do with a Meerca, Poogle, penguin-thing and the other one, I forget. So, if you see 'special' tokens, that means people paid actual can-pay-rent-with-it dollahs to have them.
Interestingly, these people with special tokens aren't usually the best players, but that's just my experience

[Eliam]

I bought the entire series 1 plushies. As someone who had bought the Limited Too ones years ago, the new ones are sucktastic. They're not soft at all, they're ugly, etc.

yeah, they should've just licensed a proper company to produce the plushies. I thought there were trading cards a while back, but i could never find them

There were. The promotion was weak, and the game was only O.K. I enjoyed it, but meh.

[Devilfish]

I guess I can live with them selling spcial favours to paying users (Lutari Island, tokes, nc items), barely, if I must, but it just looks like they slapped together a cheap, low quality product to make a quick buck. Which grinds my gears.

[plookle]

I still win Tombola fairly frequently, and when I do I usually get two code stones and at least a thousand neopoints. I mean, it's not amazing, but it's something. And after all, Tombola is free, so why not.

[ArticTheTiger]

YOU ARE A WINNER!!!

You Win 123 Neopoints

plus the following items...



Hmm, not my definition of sucks


EDIT: granted, the items arent worth anything, but this indicates that winning isn't all that rare.
