Earning Np's With Dialup

120K A DAY

Hello guest and welcome to my humble NP Guide. My name is _nickels_ and I'm finally a Jetsam. Thanks to a very generous friend (you know who you are!) I've finally been painted Fire! Now Kalkatak can save for his other goals.
I'm going to show you how to get enough neopoints for that elusive paintbrush, morphing potion, lab map or anything else that you have been dreaming about.
Yes, I know there's no background on this page. This is to insure that it will load quickly, no matter what speed your internet connection goes at.

Step 2

Games

Since games take ages to load I'm only going to list games that are worth waiting for. These are the games that are fairly easy and have good neopoint ratios. Each game has a difficulty rating (*=easy and *****=hard) this refers to how hard it is for me to get 1000np on. You will probably find them easier than I do.
I've also sorted them into groups, so you can tell what type of game they are.


Mouse and clicker games

Put your mouse on a sensitive setting for these.

* Kass Basher 800=1000np
Always play with the bat (once you have got it).
Guide - This one is great for playing, but this one has a few more tips (but loads slower) - Guide.

** Crisis Courier 1819=1000np
I get to level 5 every time on this. Type kingaltador for an extra life.
The guide I found for this loads very quickly - Guide.

** Super Hasee Bounce 700=1000np
This game is really easy once you get used to it, make sure to use the mouse instead of the keyboard.
I can't find a guide for this, do you know of one? If so please neomail me.

** Chariot Chase 1111=1000np
Now I find this game really easy because I've had another game just like for years, but it does take getting used to.
There is no guide as yet (please neomail me if you have one) but try to collect all the power ups and don't be afraid to slow down.

*** Jubble Bubble 618=1000np
I find this game really easy but it takes a little bit of getting used to.
Bit of a problem - Guide the only one I could find is in German. Nice if you speak it (unlike myself).

*** Evil Fuzzles from Beyond the Stars 592=1000np
I used to be hopeless at this game, until I read this - Guide, which should load quite quickly.

**** Hasee Bounce 363=1000np
I really enjoy playing this game but am hopeless.
Type doughnutfruit to reset the timer (hammer the last 't' if it doesn't work at first.)
This Guide will load very quickly but this Guide has more info.

**** Gwyl's Great Escape 747=1000np
I'm quite good at this game but get bored of it.
Type gwylsgreatestescapeever in the level box (press continue game) to find a secret level.
The Guide for this game is quite fast to load.

**** Rink Runner 94=1000np
I can't get the hang of moving the penguin around in this game.
I can only find one Guide on this, and can't tell if it's good or not as I don't speak the language.

Keyboard games

Use a keyboard that has no sticky keys and that works.

* Mutant Graveyard of Doom II 453=1000np
Another game where I got the avatar, I haven't got to the end yet though.
The guides are image heavy, but this one - Guide seems to be better, the most useful part being the maps of the first five levels.

** Ghost Bopper 234=1000np
This is quite easy if you have a number pad (which I no longer have). Just rotate the keyboard to match the keys.
I can find one Guide for this, but it's in Spanish.

** Moon Rock Rampage 374=1000np
My score - 300. My score using the guide - 1500. Kinda makes the loading time worth it.
Type novisitors to get 30 more seconds, rampage for an extra life and superlaser to make your laser shoot further.
Both of the guides are image heavy but this one is the most helpful- Guide.

** Magma Blaster 130=1000np
I suggest playing with your fingers on numbers 2-5 (numbers above the letter keys).
Aww, no codes or guide that I can find, if you know of some please neomail me.

** Extreme Faerie Cloud Racers 254=1000np
At first this game really confused me, until a friend told me to look at the radar and not the screen (seriously do that, it's easier!).
Bother, no guide yet, if you know of one please neomail me.

** Nimmos Pond 407=1000np
A very easy but boring game, just press space as fast as you can and try to stay in the middle.
No guide for this one, do you know of one? If so please neomail me.

*** MAGAX: Destroyer II 387=1000np
I used to hate this game but now I'm confident that I can get the avvie.
Type xagam to get full health again.
Here's the Guide that helped me get a good score, and another that's more popular - Guide.

*** 200m Peanut Dash 981=1000np
I only use the highest scoring jumps (you can press all but the last key in the combo and then wait to press the last.)
Aww, no guide for this one, if you know of one please neomail me.

*** Jungle Raiders 449=1000np
This is really easy once you learn to jump from vine to vine.
No codes and no guide for this one. If you know of any please neomail me.

*** Bumble Beams 695=1000np
I enjoy playing this game a lot, but do have trouble on the later levels.
This guide is image heavy but is very helpful - Guide.

*** Jelly Blobs of Doom 405=1000np
This game is really fun, but it is hard to get used to controlling the Chomby
Type rainbownegg to make a rainbow negg appear and fishnegg to make a fish negg appear.
Here's a nice Guide to help you along.

*** Snowmuncher 2778=1000np
I'm still working on this one because I really want the avvie.
Type buuuurrrrrrrrp (4 u's and 8 r's) to reduce bloat by 50%.
Here's the lovely page I've been following, loads quite quickly too - Guide.

**** Wheeler's Wild Ride 323=1000np
I think the reason that I'm so bad at this game is because I ADORE making him crash!
Try to do tricks as much as you can and remember the levels.
No guide or cheats as yet for this game, if you know of some please neomail me.

**** Igloo Garage Sale - The Game 1852=1000np
I find this fun but I'm not very good yet, try to catch faster moving objects first.
Type frozensnowflake to allow you to drop one more item than usual.
No guide for this game, if you know of one please neomail me.

***** Meerca Chase II 516=1000np
I'm terrible at this game, however my little brother does very well on it so I've put it in here.
Type ferociousneggsareontheloose and superextrahypergravitymode to get to the special levels.
There is only one Guide that is still working for this, but it deals with gravity mode (which I just can't use.)

Brain games

A good memery and a high IQ are recommended here.

** Shenkuu Tangram 2000=1000np
This is very easy because the puzzles stay the same on each game you play, just try to remember them.
All of the guides I could find were image heavy but I think this one is best - Guide.

*** Bouncy Supreme 910=1000np
This is an odd game for me in that I found the guide before the game, it is one of my favorites now.
Type bouncebouncebounce for an extra life and r to make the radar go away (if you want).
Here is the GREAT page that got me addicted to the game - Guide.

*** Petpet Plunge 445=1000np
Generally I do well on this, but not always.
Warning: This game (and it's Guide) load very slowly, turn the water effects off.

*** Techo Says 167=1000np
Even though I have a good memory I still find this hard, good luck!
No guide, and no codes to help you I'm afraid. If you know of any then please neomail me.

*** Snot Splatter 16667=1000np
This game is an excellent way to pass the time, and can be quite fun.
No guide or codes as yet, if you know of any then please neomail me.

**** Tyrannian Mini Golf 582=1000np
I can't stand this game because I can't get used to aiming right, however my brother does very well on it.
There isn't even a guide to help you along. If you happen to know of one then please neomail me.

**** Destruct-O-Match III 2500=1000np
I'm not so good at this game, plus I don't have the patience to play it for long.
This guide is image heavy, but explains things really well - Guide.

***** Attack of the Marblemen 103=1000np
Ok, I'll speak plainly here, I HATE this game!! But you may like it.
There is only one guide for this game, it's VERY image heavy and is split into two parts - Part 1 and Part 2.

Games of chance

You may need to retry a bit on these games.

*** Spacerocked! 10000=1000np
Since I like this game a lot I'm willing to keep restarting until I get a good score, but that can take a while.
Yet another guide that loads fast, and quite a good one too - Guide.

*** Turmac Roll 1124=1000np
I always play on hard mode, just cross your fingers (figuratively) and hope the three trees don't turn up for a while.
I think this is the best guide for this game, but it does take a little while to load - Guide.

Easy money games

These are games that are really easy to do, most only take 5 minutes to play.

Fashion Fever
Press end game then send your score. You get 300np's no matter how you dress the pet.

Splat A Sloth
Just try to splat him as fast as possible, your three scores will be sent automatically.

Smug Bug Smite
Splat the annoying bugs!!

Super Daily Survey
Drop the ball and cross your fingers.

Potato Counter
The title says it all. Count . The . Potatoes.

Petpet Pair-Up
Just match the petpets up.

Catch the Petpet
Simple stuff, just find the petpet in the crowd.

KC Space Shooter
Shoot the rocks, collect the stars and try not to hit anything.

Big Green Help
Answer the questions correctly - Guide.

Sponser Games
On this page look for the heading 'Sponsor (Ad)', almost all of the games there are very easy to play and take a minimal amount of time.


Step 3

Snipe and Price

Right, now that you've plowed through a few games we should move to your shop. If you don't have one then set one up now.
Now go to your inventory and move every item you don't need into your shop, do the same with your SDB, you do want to earn money from them right?

Now go to your shop, you'll see a little box next to each item that you can type in, this is where the price goes.
Now we need the Shop Wiz to help us (or the Super Shop Wiz if you have premium).

Now search for the first item you have in your shop on either Wiz (I copy and paste the item name) lets say it's a Vo Codestone, remember to pick 'identical to my phrase' and the Wiz will come up with something like this:-

Searching for: Vo Codestone
Shop Owner Item Stock Price
USERNAME1 Vo Codestone 2 3,698 NP
USERNAME2 Vo Codestone 1 3,700 NP
USERNAME3 Vo Codestone 1 3,700 NP

As you can see USERNAME1 has the cheapest in this list, now if you are using the normal Wiz (not super) you might want to refresh the page to check that you've found the cheapest price in all Neopia.
Once you have found the cheapest price then type in a lower price (in the little box next to it) for your item and search for the next one, and the next until you've priced them all. Then you enter your pin (if you have one) and hit 'update'. Now other users can buy from you, which gives you money that you collect from your shop till.

Hold on, you're not finished yet! Take a look at this one.

Searching for: Vo Codestone
Shop Owner Item Stock Price
USERNAME1 Vo Codestone 2 1,430 NP
USERNAME2 Vo Codestone 1 3,700 NP
USERNAME3 Vo Codestone 1 3,700 NP

As you are pricing your shop items you may run across something like this, as you can see USERNAME1's price is far lower than the others, this is a good thing for you. Rush into their shop and buy it, then put it in your shop and sell it for a price nearer the normal one (in this case nearer to 3,700). This is called Sniping and it can be very profitable if you're lucky.
Yes! Dial up users can do this! Of course you do have to click a little quicker than you would need to if you had a faster connection but you will get some snipes.

Of course you don't have to have the item in your shop to snipe for it, in fact a few people just type in item names looking for a good snipe. Here are a few items you might want to try:-

Any Codestone
Their names are - Bri, Eo, Har, Lu, Main, Mau, Orn, Tai-Kai, Vo and Zei. (Put the word codestone after each when searching).
There's usually at least one of these at a lower price, but you have to be fast.

Secret Laboratory Map
There are 9 pieces but they are all called the same name so the wiz just picks a random one to search for.
There tends to be one underpriced every three days or so.

Dubloon coins
I only look for ones that people use for training, they are One, Two and Five. (Put the words dubloon coin after them when searching).

Paintbrushes
You have to be lucky here as these snipes don't happen as often as other ones.
Here's a list of all the Paintbrushes - List.

Expensive Avatar Items
A few of these are - Bag of Peanuts, Snorkle Snout, Meuka Pinata and a Normal Golden Nerkmid.
Again you have to be lucky to get these.

NOTE: You can't search for paintbrushes, petpet paintbrushes, secret laboratory maps or transmogrification potions on the Super Shop Wiz.


Step 4

Other Little Things

Still got a bit of time left? Well there are a few more things you can do to earn those precious neopoints, some of these are quite hard to do but they're worth a try.

Stock Market
This can take ages to earn anything from, but the returns can be HUGE - Guide.

Better Than You
A Neopet character will set a tough score to beat on a game, if you beat it you can get 20,000 nps and some items.

World Challenge
This is only a good idea if you're very good at games, I can't find a guide and I know nothing about it so you're on your own here.

Trophies
Again, only for the expert players, if you can get your name at or very near the top of the high score board (resets at the start of each month) you get a trophy and neopoints for every day you are still there.

Lenny Conundrum
Sometimes this is a maths sum, sometimes guessing, sometimes a riddle. Usually quite hard to figure out, but it pays.

Mystery Pic
You'll be given a blown up image of a small part of an image in neopia, find the image (if you can) and you get money, and possibly a nice item and a trophy.

Art Gallery
If you can draw very well then this can make you some money, although it is very hard to win. You get 10,000 nps and a rare item if you happen to win.

Random Contest
As it says in the title, what you'll be asked to do is random, it may be write a short story, or build a spaceship for sloth out of clay, whatever it is if you win you get a trophy, avatar, item and a lot of nps.

Caption Contest
You are given a scene and asked to make a funny comment on it. Other users then vote for their favorites, if you win you can get 5,000 - 10,000 nps, a rare item and a trophy.

Last remarks

Right, you done all that now? Don't worry if you haven't earned very much, you'll get better the more you practice and it does pile up.
A good idea now would be to put your money in your bank account to avoid any money grabbing random events.

Well I hope you have enjoyed my guide and are richer because of it (I certainly am) good luck with any and all your goals!
BYE!!
