appear to be new.







UPDATE: On April 9, the following dialogue appeared on the Roo Island page:







UPDATE: On April 10, the following dialogue appeared on the Roo Island page, confirming that something will be happening soon. It is also likely that "Project X" is in reference to a decade of AAA challenges.





UPDATE: On April 11, more dialogue was released.







UPDATE: On April 12, more dialogue (or monologue, we should say) was released, and it would appear that it's getting closer to having Daily Dare be released.





What do you think? Could a new Daily Dare be the old favourite TNT recently Follow @jellyneo on Twitter for all the latest #Neopets news! If you visit Roo Island currently you may see a small conversation between Abigail and AAA at the top of the page. Clicking the cross on the conversation reveals another two snippets. Although they use images from the 2012 Daily Dare, the conversations themselvesto be new.On April 9, the following dialogue appeared on the Roo Island page:On April 10, the following dialogue appeared on the Roo Island page, confirming thatwill be happening soon.

bonju , April 8, 2016 11:17 AM NST It wouldn't be their first time reusing old art. I'm happy to see that DD will be back this year

bonju , April 8, 2016 11:20 AM NST Hmm, there are also images of Lulu and the unidentified petpetpets in the source code, all from 2012 too.

novelista , April 8, 2016 11:37 AM NST AHH! I knew it! And Isle said I was wrong.

berdor , April 8, 2016 11:38 AM NST They can reuse all the art they want if they bring back DD, as long as they give us new content to go with it.

morganjoisle , April 8, 2016 11:39 AM NST I'm kind of annoyed that you have to click the "x" to close the conversation. One, that's annoying if you're just trying to get them to go away - but two, I was wondering "wait, doesn't that close the conversation? I want to read the whole thing!" and clicking an "x", unless it's April Fool's Day, isn't usually the way that I'm used to clicking to receive more content.

morganjoisle , April 8, 2016 11:42 AM NST ) Ulggghhhhh, I just don't want to be stuck beating AAA every single day for a month to get the top prize, ya know?



@morganjoisle: That first sentence was probably supposed to be "I'm kind of annoyed that you have to click the "x" to "continue" the conversation." Silly me! @novelista: Now I ought to complain about how much I don't want Daily Dare to happen. D: (Plus it used to happen in March clear back in the 2008 timeframe.)

Silly me!

zeelink , April 8, 2016 11:46 AM NST I'm so bad at games but I'm still excited!

berdor , April 8, 2016 12:12 PM NST I'll start chanting 'no petpet rescue'.

purplebin , April 8, 2016 12:16 PM NST I'm getting worried that it will run during my mom's visit, and I'll have to play late at night for a week.

Still, I think DD is the best event, and I like a challenge.

purplebin , April 8, 2016 12:32 PM NST the last couple of times it only ran for about 19 or 20 days, not a whole month. That's a bit more reasonable for most people.

chachaboobie , April 8, 2016 12:58 PM NST If the Daily Dare is being resurrected, it makes sense to have it when it's not overlapping with other site event. April would be a good month to hold the Daily Dare if TNT see's fit to resurrected it. I think there's more people that like the Daily Dare than those that don't.

rosi , April 8, 2016 1:30 PM NST

I also think that holding Dare in April is like a warm-up for the Altador Cup in June (which instead has become more of an annoying chore )

Moreover, yesterday's question (Daily Puzzle) involved Abigail's hobbies @chacha: Good point.I also think that holding Dare in April is like a warm-up for the Altador Cup in June (which instead has become more of an annoying choreMoreover, yesterday's question (Daily Puzzle) involved Abigail's hobbies

zaygir , April 8, 2016 2:55 PM NST Well, I'm excited I love the Daily Dare!

chachaboobie , April 8, 2016 3:11 PM NST I've always enjoyed the Daily Dare. If TNT is going to host the Daily Dare this year, it will be interesting to see what format they use.

cat , April 8, 2016 3:33 PM NST Sweet! My favorite game event of the year!

illusionshadow_s , April 8, 2016 3:49 PM NST I'm hoping that dd won't start until next month... finals ;-;

reiqua , April 8, 2016 4:34 PM NST

I'm going to be that annoying person who's like "Why all the random hints, why aren't they announcing it via the new features like normal? This smells like a PLOTPLOTPLOT!"

savanuhh , April 8, 2016 4:41 PM NST I recently came back to Neo after a 2.5 year hiatus and was so sad to see a lot of my favorite parts of the site were gone. I won't get ahead of myself, but at least bringing back DD is step in the right direction! -cheers- Omg I'm EXCITED! I hope you aren't teasing us JN. I hope this is actually happening!I recently came back to Neo after a 2.5 year hiatus and was so sad to see a lot of my favorite parts of the site were gone.

seven_dead_owls , April 8, 2016 4:43 PM NST DD always caused me so much stress, would love to give it a go again now that I've learned not getting the top trophy on stuff isn't the neopocalypse lol

cueva , April 8, 2016 4:47 PM NST Omg, I would love participante, I need the site theme and trophie I can not wait

sym0ny , April 8, 2016 6:22 PM NST Im tired of this. I want a new plot.

dogslover123 , April 8, 2016 6:57 PM NST Hurray for the ones that doesn't have the Theme!

kentuckyfrychickenrl , April 8, 2016 7:59 PM NST Can't wait to participate in it again! ^^ Yay! I love Daily Dare!Can't wait to participate in it again! ^^

mistyqee , April 8, 2016 9:01 PM NST At this point I make sure to never expect too much from tnt. I'm going to assume it's a code error until proven wrong.

ummy - JN Staff , April 8, 2016 9:52 PM NST I'm going to assume it's a code error until proven wrong.

---

If it was a code error, that alone wouldn't explain the new dialog.



I think it's a safe assumption they were testing something and it accidentally went live.

duckywucky - JN Staff , April 8, 2016 11:43 PM NST OMG THERE BETTER BE DD! There is nothign better than decide "oh yes, I can beat AAA in Meerca Chase" and then spend half a day trying to get the scored AND THEN YOU FINALLY GET FISH NEGG AND OMG BETTER NOT MESS THIS UP....



This is so much better than GMC. Or AC.

reiqua , April 9, 2016 12:04 AM NST



Yup, definitely intentional It's definitely intentional. CQ responded to one of the writers' neomails earlier today saying she can't reveal stuff about site content plans but that we might like to check Roo Island in the next few days...Yup, definitely intentional

reiqua , April 9, 2016 12:17 AM NST Oh yeah, also there's new dialogue up as of midnight, so it's definitely intentional

adrian13_56 , April 9, 2016 12:24 AM NST Oh yeaaa my boi AAA is BACK!

alessia , April 9, 2016 12:34 AM NST I don't see anything strange. They made clear that DD was coming back, the Spring Festival has just ended and there's a full month with no other events planned. This dialogue is a funny way to hold our attention on

alessia , April 9, 2016 12:40 AM NST



So true!!! I'm a decent player, I even have a bunch of unusual trophies, but DD sometimes is REALLY challenging and force you to improve. It's time consuming and often drive you mad, but at the end it's so satisfying!! @duckywuckySo true!!! I'm a decent player, I even have a bunch of unusual trophies, but DD sometimes is REALLY challenging and force you to improve. It's time consuming and often drive you mad, but at the end it's so satisfying!!

cat , April 9, 2016 1:55 AM NST Looks like the negg festival page is down, so I guess yesterday was the last day. Hopefully they'll have the prizes for all gold checks distributed on Monday.



Also Transparent Shoyru's looking pretty nice.

cat , April 9, 2016 1:58 AM NST @duckywucky - Agreed! It's the feeling that the game is difficult rather than simply being monotonous that sets the DD apart from the GMC or AC.



Actually, I usually end up going for a mix of AAA and Abi games, even with the guides there always seems to be one or two (Faerie Cloud Racers) that I just can't beat the AAA score of.

thenephilimrosier , April 9, 2016 2:14 AM NST Ooh this is exciting! I saw different dialogue from the screenshots above when I went to Roo Island, but hopefully this means something new and fun is coming ^^

duckywucky - JN Staff , April 9, 2016 2:44 AM NST Oh, I've never managed to do all AAA challenges. I hate games like Destruction-o-match or some other game I suck at. I haven't really played much games lately so I better get practising!



....also on postivie side I nowadays have mouse with laptop. Itchy Invasion during GMC with touchpad was a nightmare XD

alessia , April 9, 2016 3:45 AM NST @duckywucky



"Itchy Invasion during GMC with touchpad was a nightmare"



I can't even imagine it!!!!!!! O_____O



My only concern is that some games I was good at, now with a new and more powerful PC aren't as easy as before (for example shenkuu warrior runs way more faster)

bonju , April 9, 2016 3:48 AM NST

I wonder if this will be an "around the world" themed dare. I love how they are poking fun at themselves for the lack of DDI wonder if this will be an "around the world" themed dare.

im_fariha , April 9, 2016 4:25 AM NST NOOOO!!! My final exams are gonna start from 29th!!!

beyondelsewhere , April 9, 2016 9:51 AM NST *If* this was intentionally released like this, without it being a mistake about going live early, I sort of love that they added a sense of mystery back to the site. Surprise event starting, without really announcing it in the news first. So you just happen to stumble across it while wandering the site and...theories abound!



I miss that about neopets. I loved the random events that were really random, and not expected. And when people would discover a new plot before it was truly announced in the news.



I don't like any of the game challenges, but I love the anticipation of finding out what's going on!

dave - JN Staff , April 9, 2016 10:50 AM NST @beyondelsewhere: Definitely. Kudos to JS for starting the event (or whatever it ends up being) like this!

morganjoisle , April 9, 2016 11:07 AM NST (Especially if the first day is only a half-day and without any prior warning that it was going to happen - like with the first Charity Corner and the Krawk Island Disappearance events.)



(Also: heads up, be careful when clicking links in shops. According to the boards, CG'ers are going around again. Especially if you're buying codestones, double check all the URLs.) @beyondelsewhere: I tend to forget that neopets did used to be like that. I love the sense of adventure and anything can happen that used to be on the site. On the same hand, I don't necessarily like unpredictability and an event starting at five in the evening, though.(Especially if the first day is only a half-day and without any prior warning that it was going to happen - like with the first Charity Corner and the Krawk Island Disappearance events.)(Also: heads up, be careful when clicking links in shops.

chachaboobie , April 9, 2016 11:12 AM NST I was needing to replace my previous 10-12 yr old Laptop about 6 plus years ago, but wasn't able to until 06/2012. I'm very fortunate it lasted as long as it did, but my lower RAM was starting to be an issue on Neopets for certain Games. During the Daily Dare in 2009 and 2011, I ran into a few of the Games that I had started having issues with on my old Laptop. I know for sure that one of the Games was Carnival of Terror in 2009. Anyway, since I couldn't play the Games on my Laptop successfully at home, I went to my local library and got on their public computers in order to play the Games and submit the needed Game Scores. -- Anyway, I think the last Daily Dare in 2013 was done very well and the 20 day length was perfect. Even if the event length was cut down to 15 days like the Festival of Neggs this year, it would still be acceptable and better than not having it.

chachaboobie , April 9, 2016 11:18 AM NST In addition, there's really no reason that this should not be a yearly Event on Neopets. The coding structure for this Event is well established and should take very little modification. Most of the effort should come down to deciding on the Games, qualifying Game Scores and creating the Prizes. I wouldn't even mind if TNT decided to pass on hosting a related NC Event for the Daily Dare.

vincent7577 , April 9, 2016 11:27 AM NST another year of flawlessly kicking this nerd's butt, here we come

sparkleeze , April 9, 2016 12:32 PM NST Can't wait!

dai , April 9, 2016 7:21 PM NST yeeees I love DD!!

shadowlight17 , April 10, 2016 12:22 AM NST There is another dialogue box today. It seems Daily Dare is eminent!

reiqua , April 10, 2016 5:14 AM NST Yes! Jumpstaff poking even more fun at themselves for missing DD for so long

dogslover123 , April 10, 2016 9:06 AM NST



I'm going to admit, they're good with dialogues Interesting...I'm going to admit, they're good with dialogues

purplebin , April 10, 2016 12:13 PM NST So it seems the games will be organized by world this time. I'm guessing it will start fairly soon, maybe before the end of the week!

morganjoisle , April 10, 2016 1:29 PM NST I absolutely love Abby's reference to the last daily dare. Oh my gosh, the "And that’s not even counting the year he FORGOT about it and went to summer camp," line! That was absolutely wonderful. Hilarious. Oh, goodness, that daily dare.

berdor , April 10, 2016 1:57 PM NST If project X doesn't involve the return of Chadley, I'll be very disappointed.

jm1500 , April 10, 2016 5:42 PM NST speaking of site events, with all the mask they have been releasing lately, im wondering if they wanted to bring back masks of dread at some point but dropped the idea for some reason.

rosi , April 10, 2016 6:17 PM NST Love the excitement they're building up

beyondelsewhere , April 11, 2016 6:05 AM NST I now visit Roo Island as soon as I log in. This is rather fun to me right now. I love the dialogue. Not as good as "wait..we were just here for the free paint brus--" but it's close. Heh.

purplebin , April 11, 2016 9:27 AM NST Well that makes it a bit more definite! I thought for a minute that they would actually say the date this time, but not quite yet.

zeelink , April 11, 2016 10:20 AM NST I'm getting more and more hyped XD

berdor , April 11, 2016 10:57 AM NST My guess is Wednesday or Thursday (JS seems to like to start events on those days).



Seems they are not quite done with the dialogues yet, but I don't think they have another week's worth of them.

1jediboy , April 11, 2016 12:50 PM NST Today:

AAA: I don't have time for these silly competitions!

Me: *GASP* D:

dogslover123 , April 11, 2016 4:36 PM NST @1jediboy: Yes... My heart broke too

parody_ham , April 11, 2016 10:15 PM NST They grow up so fast!



On a serious note... Yay, DD! Gasp! He's become... Boring.They grow up so fast!On a serious note... Yay, DD!

beansproutfriend , April 12, 2016 1:11 AM NST Today's Daily Trivia asks the first year of Daily Dare. It's definitely coming!

zeelink , April 12, 2016 2:34 AM NST Seems like today is the last dialogue. Unless they pick up at another location.

cat , April 12, 2016 2:50 AM NST Either AAA's become boring or he has something REALLY interesting going on that we don't know about yet. Hopefully it'll be more than a side-story that you have to use NC to even read.

purplebin , April 12, 2016 7:01 AM NST With today's dialog and trivia question I think they will be announcing something in the news today! And then start the competition in another day or two.

sparkleeze , April 12, 2016 9:04 AM NST Yay DD! Come, come, come!

almost_human , April 12, 2016 9:37 AM NST I wonder if we will get the Flash Game Makeovers that have been "coming soon"?

Wouldn't that be a twist; if we have to learn new games versions for DD?

aliy28 , April 12, 2016 9:52 AM NST ugh.. though I'm excited I'll never got top prize, so evidently discouraged as usual. Along with other competitions I don't want to bother as its a lot of work for nothing in the end.

somatropin , April 12, 2016 11:50 AM NST If you look for the page it says "not yet"



http://www.neopets.com/?ddy18=notyet

beyondelsewhere , April 12, 2016 12:07 PM NST

It's live!http://www.neopets.com/games/dd/index.phtml

ricky319ufo , April 12, 2016 12:08 PM NST Daily Dare is started. First day challenge is Dueling Decks.

morganjoisle , April 12, 2016 12:25 PM NST @beyondelsewhere: Thanks for the link!



Ughhhhh that Dueling Decks score, though. D: I so do not have time for that, at least not today. Plus AAA's score is even higher than my all-time high score. (Remember when this game was for the new game challenges thing?)

ricky319ufo , April 12, 2016 1:02 PM NST I think if you don't beat it today you will have entire tomorrow to try as well, they always do that for the first day of the event.



As for the Dueling Deck tips:



Step 1: play the hard mode for higher score.



Step 2: You can keep restarting the game until you have Ylana Skyfire on your hand and try not to lose it, it is very difficult to win that mighty card so you are less likely to lose.



Step 3: Let Zenco has some good cards so you won't "accidentally" win the game.



Step 4: When you are about win the game, lose to him purposely until he have 5 or more cards so you have the chance to get 5 wins bonus. The bonus is huge, you can repeat this step to reach 25000 faster.
