I think I want to pick up one of these pets, if at all possible. When does TNT generally release these pets? Midnight? Sometime in the afternoon?

Thanks.

I think recently they've been releasing limited pets in small groups spread throughout the day, actually. So if you hang around here or the Neoboards someone's likely to post (and you can check yourself every so often, too).

How many do they generally release?

I think it's 500 at a time, but it could be as few as 100. They were releasing 500 Lutaris at a time last June, but they also released about 10-15k Lutaris that day (stupid faulty memory...), and I don't think they usually release that many LE pets; it was all a huge promotion for the Lutari Island cell phone program they'd just launched.

So, would the first "batch" be at midnight, NST?

Not necessarily. Going back to the Lutari example, I managed to grab mine around 8:20 pm, a few hours after the news for the next day had been released. They were released throughout the night, and then sporadically throughout the following day. Other species were actually belatedly released (didn't become available until a few days after their theme day), but those events went on for 24 hours, too.

I think they're released apporixmately every 1.5 hours, but the time vaires greatly; sometimes the wait is as long as 3 hours, and as short as 45 minutes. TNT seems to want to make it as random as possible (probably to keep "pet collecters" from hogging all the LEs).

As horrid as the place is, lurking the Help Neoboard is a great way to figure out when a new batch has been released. People always swarm there to show off their new pet and tell their friends that more ___ have been released.

Excellent - Thanks for everything! ^_^

INVISIBLE?! fucking lazy artists!! >=(

I didn't find it necessary to make a new board because what effort does it take to make an invisible Chomby and what is there to say but, thanks a lot TNT.

You're welcome, Archkiel.

I know, I know.

I made rude hand gestures at my monitor when I saw it, too.

The artists do not choose which colours to draw.

Hmm, well I think invisible pets should at least have some kindaof vague outline so you can tell what it is, same for petpets. I might not mind Invisible pets if that were the case, I am a Chomby fan, so I think I over reacted a bit.

This is really sad. One redraw + one colourfil per pet day always left something to look forward to (even if you do end up disappointed). It'd be a shame if they quit that practice.

Btw I think invisible pets would be much more interesting if you could see only their eyes on the image.

The Chomby are quite a happy pet, I would have liked to seen a more evil looking one, like Darigan or Halloween.
