Tyrannia: What's the Deal?

Tyrannian Elder Sued for 3000 NPs

by SpacePirateStar

Kyruggi, the elder and leader of the village of the land of Tyrannia, is currently being sued by an angry Neopian owner. Apparently, the owner's pet was scared at the Lair of the Beast at the newly mapped Tyrannian Plateau.

"I thought Tyrannia was a family fun place!" she remarked. "But we went to the cave of the beast, and my poor NeoPet was scared to death! So scared, in fact, that he developed a sickness which cost thousands of Neopoints to cure! Tyrannia will pay for this!"

"No comment," said Kyruggi when asked about this distressing incident. There is no word on the trial as of yet, but you will be notified. Until then, please make sure your Neo Pets are up to the task before venturing into the cave.

The Neopian-Tyrannian Tourist Care Unit (NTTCU) is working on having more of a warning at the Plateau. "This poor, sweet NeoPet was sick because of this cave," says the owner's lawyer. "We need to close it off for good!"

Said Kyruggi's expensive Neopian-renowned attorney, "This woman has no right to sue the elder! There were plenty of warning signs plastered all over the cave. Tourists need to pay more attention to the details!" For more on the incident, mail a letter to the NTTCU.

 

Uggaroo Accused of Corruption

by PinkGlitter17

Early this morning I got a Neomail from a concerned user. She asked me if she could remain unnamed, and I choose to respect her wishes. She seemed very distressed as she wrote, "This morning I was playing Switch-A-Roo, and I had 500 NP on the line, I planned on using the money for my shop. I was very excited when I won, and when I clicked on the button to collect my winnings Uggaroo informed me that I had not watched the whole sequence, and so he would take my hard earned money, but I am sure I watched the whole sequence. He stole from me!"

Now, being the responsible reporter that I am, I had to make sure that the story checked out before I could try and get this article published. So I made the 4 hour long plane to Tyrannia, and was warmly greeted by the natives. I was shown where Switch-A-Roo was, and I met Uggaroo. He seemed like a friendly enough guy, and soon I was betting 100 NP. Everything went along smoothly, and I was awarded my money. I was just about to dismiss the girl who wrote the letter to me as a con-artist just looking for money, but I decided to give it another shot. This time I made a bet with 200 NP. I watched the entire sequence and was delighted when I found the ball under the right coconut. I clicked the link to collect my winnings, but when the page opened Uggaroo told me that I had not finished playing and he would be keeping my money! I was outraged, luckily, I have quite a bit of NP in my account, so it didn't hurt to loose 200 NP. The people I really felt sorry for were the poor, who spent their savings on the game, and then lost their money when they won the game.

I was eager to find out more about this Uggaroo character, and so I traveled down to the jungle to have a chat with the owner of the local food store. At first he refused to say anything, but after I paid him 300 NP he spoke up. "Uggaroo bad. Steal many NP. Not good." This brief statement was enough for me, and so I bought a Farn Plant for the flight home and left. It was evident that this Uggaroo character was a hustler, but what could I expect? You can count on it that I won't play that game anymore, but I'm sure many who read this will still continue to play, sometimes getting their money, sometimes getting it stolen. All I'm saying is play at your own risk.
