Over on the premium board, someone got a score of 370-something on Meerca Chase II. And then BAM, the cheat monster showed up. When he tried to play again, the monster showed up a second time.

Here's a screenie (special thanks to mrblobby1984 for allowing me permission to link to his screenie and tell his story here):

Anyhow, does anyone know if any punishment comes from getting the Cheat Monster? I saw it released in the news back with the war, but this is the first time I've ever see anyone actually get it. I'm a little shocked that CM would show with a score of under 400 on Meerca Chase II though, 2800++ sure...but under 400? That's a very believeable score. :o

Maybe something was wrong with him playing it at petpages.neopets.com?

I've never gotten the Cheat Monster, and I don't know anyone who has. But I always thought that it was some kind of random event. Maybe?

I wouldn't think so, the guy is on the premium board talking about how worried he is about it...I really believe him. *unsure*

What looks fake about it?

Don't think so. I play on petpages when the main server is down. All seems fair there.

I vaguely recall something being mentioned about using the backup servers to restock and such when the site is slow...perhaps it was an editorial. At any rate, the staff views it as cheating.

  • I very much doubt they have the flash games uploaded onto the Petpages server.
  • The text looks slightly blurred, even though the rest of the image is normal.
  • I doubt even TNT would use 'Cheat... and be devoured!!!!!' as their warning message to cheaters.

I just tried it on petpages.neopets.com and no cheat monster was found... But don't think the person was lying...

  • They are.
  • The image was saved as .jpg, what do you expect?
  • They used that on the news, why not on the real thing?


Edit: Off topic: How'd the person get windows media player open like that on the task bar?

There is no physical petpages.neopets.com server. It just is a domain linked to the various http://www.neopets.com servers. It looks authentic enough

Hiya Mr. B...glad to see you made it over here at PPT. :) Thanks again for allowing me to use your screenie. I've always wondered what happened when he showed up and your screenie was the first I'd ever seen of it happening since he was announced in the news.

Glad to see you here anyhow. :) And thanks for clearing that up.

To be completely discriminatory and prejudice, remember this is coming off of the premium boards which does give it a bit more potential to be true than just off the neoboards.

The blurriness is very characteristic of a jpeg. There's nothing I can see to totally discount it yet.
