SunnyNeo is currently on the NeoBoards to try and get some missing information for our upcoming guides. If you could take a spare moment to share your dailies data, that would be great! We're specifically looking for Grumpy and Wise Old Kings information, as well as results for our Wheel guides: Extravagance, Misfortune, and Monotony. Feel free to also mention prizes we are missing on our Tombola and TDMBGPOP guides which have already been released. We appreciate your help and support! Join us!
While we're on the subject of NeoBoards, do you feel as though your post may be lacking something? Maybe what you need is a new font! We now have two new fonts for you to use: Slorg and Drackonack!
You can view our original fonts on the Old Fonts page. Be sure to check out the rest of our new fonts on the Secret Avatars/Fonts and Default Avatars/Fonts pages!

With a Vampire, a bat, a werewolf, a zombie and a wraith, HW was too tough to beat.
Here at SunnyNeo, our Staff Members were hard at work for not just their AC teams, but their SN Staff Tournament Teams. Team Altachuck did manage to again take YYB from Team Super Heroes in week 4 like the previous week. However Team Super Heroes ruled the side games every week, as well as won the first two weeks of YYB, landing them a first place victory. Team Altachuck landed second place and fought honorably for their wins. Team Pink Skulls and Team Super Awesome were neck and neck the whole time. Team Pink Skulls managed to land third place just before Team Super Awesome in the final week, landing them the third place overall. Team Super Awesome landed in the fourth and final place. Four of our staff participating in this years Tournament achieved All Star.
Congratulations to all who accomplished their personal goals this Altador Cup.

First and foremost, thank you all who submitted to this years AC Customisation Spotlight. There were many Customisations that we really liked and you did make it tough for us to chose a winner in each category. Alas, votes were cast, and we have our winners! Congratulations to all of you. There were a select few Teams for which we did not receive a NP Only entry. Therefore, we have filled in a customisation sample suggestion instead of leaving that entry blank.
Neopoint Only is not a limitation, but an opportunity.
Definitely a Lord and a Lady of this years Altador Cup.

Dyeworks is the latest exciting NC Mall Feature. What is it about? Dyeworks allows you to get recoloured versions of certain NC Mall items.
For this, you need to have the item (many of them are retireds) and a Dyeworks Hue Brew Potion (it sells for 125 NC).
Using this item you will get a recoloured version of the wearable, whille you will still keep the original. You can dye the original item as many times as you like!
