The Neolluminati

The Neopian Conspiracy Theories - Part Three


I started this because I had spotted a few strange things in Neopia. Now I find more and more of you have also seen oddities or noticed suspicious happenings!

This thing is bigger then I first thought!

Since so many of you have ideas and theories for the Great Neopian Unexplained, I have created a Guild, called the Neolluminati (meaning "secret society"), the only criteria for joining is that you be willing to help unravel some of these mysteries! J


This week, I have decided to investigate the various ways in which the Neopian Shadow Government (SG) obtains its funding.


The Ghosts

We have all experienced the Ghosts from the Money Tree. They roam around Neopia, and when you're not looking they quickly grab Neopoints from you, the only reason you notice, is because they cackle insanely as they flee!

The stolen Neopoints are supposedly placed in the Money Tree, for those less fortunate, and sometimes you can see evidence of this.
But why do the Ghosts steal items and Neopoints from the Money Tree as well?
It makes little sense to steal it from you, to place it on the Money Tree, and then steal it back from the Money Tree!
Maybe there are two types of Ghost? Or more likely, it is something the Neopian Shadow Government have set up, in the hope of confusing you into not noticing, or maybe not minding - after all, if your Neopoints were helping the poor, it wouldn't be so bad!


The Bug Brothers

These two have the habit of popping up from nowhere and stealing your Neopoints!

No matter how much I try, I simply cannot find any information on this sneaky pair, perhaps they are being protected by the SG?


The Wishing Well

This is an interesting point raised by an Agent of the Neolluminati - Linnet.

Have you noticed that no matter how much NP you put in the Wishing Well, you never seem to receive an item. Some people, Linnet and myself included, have put thousands of Neopoints in, only to get nothing.

By the Well is a list of people who have had their wishes granted. Are these people real? Or are they merely random names to reassure us and convince us to part with our NP? I would be interested in hearing from anyone that has had a wish granted.

Is the Wishing Well purely a means of obtaining our hard earned Neopoints?
This remains to be seen. Maybe the Well uses all of the NP donated to provide items to the very lucky, or maybe it simply gives out a few items here and there to avoid suspicion, then passes the profits to the SG!


The Alien Aisha Vending Machine

Another very good observation by an Agent of the Neolluminati - Protan.

Have you noticed the Vending Machine is in (importantly) Neopia Central?
How this strange machine came to be here is a little of a mystery, apparently the Alien Aishas brought it.
The Alien Aishas are Aishas from outer space. Or are they? Don't you think it is a rather large coincidence that a race so similar our Aishas could evolve independently on another planet? And have the same name? And if they did come from outer space, why is there no documentation of it, surely an event as huge as contact from an alien race would be big news! Yet there is nothing.
Also strange is the fact that the Vending Machine uses Nerkmids, something that is found lying around in Neopia. How very convenient that they came here, where their machine works!
Nerkmids are very expensive to buy, try looking them up for yourself on the Shop Wizard, and what do you get for them if you put them in the Vending Machine? Food. That's it, food. And most of the time the food is worth much less then the Nerkmid. Does this remind you a little of Dubloons?

I think that the Alien Aishas are not "aliens" at all. My theory is that the SG conducted experiments on normal Aishas and created the Alien Aishas. Of course they don't want people to know this, so they claimed they were from outer space. To back up this claim, the created an extraterrestrial machine for them.

But why experiment on Aishas? Have you noticed that a normal Aisha has four ears, the larger pair is perfectly placed for eavesdropping and gathering information. Alien Aishas have six ears, they have an extra pair of super-spying ears!
Maybe the bells around their necks are not bells at all, but instead radio transmitters or recording devices!
What a perfect way to gather information, then by having "aliens" placed at a Vending Machine which attracts great crowds, and idle chat! You wouldn't be too worried about chatting to your NeoFriend about secrets, if you thought the only person who might hear you was from another planet!


The Auctions and the Trading Post


If you have ever taken part in an Auction, or placed an offer at the Trading Post, you will be aware that any Neopoints involved are removed from your stash.
They are put to one side for "safe-keeping" so that you don't spend them just in case you win the auction or your offer is accepted. Fair enough.

But, what happens to these Neopoints in the time between winning the Auction, or having your offer accepted on the Trading Post?
This is something that virtually no-one notices! Those Neopoints have to be somewhere, but you haven't got them, and the other party involved in the Auction or Trade hasn't got them….

Yep, you guessed it. The Shadow Government secretly places these Neopoints in its own account until the transactions are completed. While the funds are in these secret accounts, they earn a lot of interest, and in the case of long term transactions, they may even be used to fund secret projects! Think of how many Auctions there are every day, and how many items in the Trading Post have had offers made… This is an incredible amount of Neopoints! And how sneaky!

I'm going to have to stop here for now, there are many other things I would love to tell you, but I have just received word that one of the Neolluminati Agents is missing!

Onugu,

Very good article .. I liked it =)

Did you notice that the Neopets team said the Pirate story was suddenly ending? Were we getting to close to the truth, or was something about to be exposed on Krawk island that we were not meant to see?

Was it a co-incidence that one of the Neopets v2 programmers was on the island? The rest were on the space station like you would expect?

But I don't think that Sloth is behind the SG, he may be a device of theirs though!

Hey, congrats on being in the Neopian Times...you have an interesting article there! It was pretty neat to read. :) I do have to disagree with the Alien Aisha Veding Machine, though. My brother (alpop) found a nerkmid and used it at the vending machine and he got a faerie paint brush, no kidding. He painted his Kougra. Also, I used the same nerkmid and combination, and i came up with a woo-woo grub. pah. Anyway, I'm just saying that you can get soem useful things out of the vending machine. Thanks! :)

Although I don't remember what the item was, I have gotten Neopoints. I don't know about the trades, because no one's ever offered anything. I eventually canceled it anyway.

The NP from the Wishing Well go to the Money Tree, I know because sometimes, at the Money Tree, there are donations that say "Donated by the Wishing Well". And the Vending Machine can give out more than just food...once, as a random event, an alien aisha gave me a nerkmid. I used the nerkmid, and got another nerkmid in return. Then I used that nerkmid, and I got a Striped p/b!

Hello onugu.

I have read your article in the neopian times. Thumbs up - great work. Also, I have a little consipracy you seem to have not mentioned. Hopefully, this will get me an invite into your guild.

Tombola.
Everyday, we all use the tombola. Its on all of our daily chores lists, and we pull out a ticket, praying for the 0, 2 or 5. There it goes, another booby prize. How come we seem to NEVER be able to grab that Air Faerie winning ticket? Or that Zei Codestone we need. Even when we finally get Neopoints, its a very small amount. Now I bet youre thinking: How does the Shadow Goverment benifet from this? Well heres my thought. The Shadow Goverment secretly gathers tombola coins (stolen most likely) and grab all the good prizes, so when we come, there are 0 decent prizes for us. Coinsidence? I think not.

Thank you for your time.

The Wheel of Exitement has always given away money to many a happy neopet, however, it must be noticed that one will never win more than 500 NP. Also 50% of the time you get less np than you put in! Where do you think this money is going? Can you say Shadow Govement? If you give this idea a chance and look into it, you may be able to expose SG.
If you do not believe that idea then you will beleive this: Before it was destroyed, Marqua was extremely wealthy, so wealthy infact that the Shadow Goverment may have felt the need to kill it off, but not before gaining its riches!

Please consider these ideas, for if you do you may expose SG to the public.

I have thought up another awesome idea, in the food club, and poogle races,it says that if you do not collect your winnings in 7 dyas they will be forfeited. Forfeitred to who do you think? DUH! The Shadow Goverment!

Tombola and scratch cards and Garage Sale

How many times havnt you got booby prizes?? And how many times have you won?? When you win (if you ever do) you get GROSS food (most commonly) why? Becuz they dont want the food! And they wanna make us BELIVE that we acctually win..

Scratchcards how big are chance that you win?? If you ever win you need to have lots of luck and buy many scratch cards and the cards cost 500np each... Then if you buy 6 scratch cards you mabye win 2500 then you acctually lost np!!


Garage Sale Are they ever going to move?? And WERE do they get all the things?? They should have run out of things!!

Subject Neolluminati Membership

I have been pondering about a certain aspect of Neopia that I believe is a conspiracy. Is it just me, or is it that the moment a huge slump is found in the interest of a Neopian Shadow Government creation, they create a new place in which Neopians are unconsiously lured to, to spend their NP?

For example... When Maraqua was smashed to pieces by a "whirlpool" the new island, Krawk Island, was "mysteriously found". What I think what's going on is that the popularity of Maraqua has decreased alot since the founding of Neopia.

Seeing that tourists aren't spending as much money on tacky merchandise and the like as they used to, the SG had to think of something to boost interest. The best way to accomplish that is to create a new "area" in which the mere aspect of it being "new, exciting, dangerous and adventurous" would be enough to lure people. The whole point of this is a money laundering scheme. What is up with the dubloons? Krawk Island was solely designed for new shops, attractions, and such things that would rake in more money faster than you can say Blumbaroo. This is just another wing of financial support the SG needed.

I have i good thing but i can't fit it in one neomail so i will send it in sections


From the very start I thought there was somthing wrong about
the dark faerie not just how she was evil but somthing else that
I just could'nt put my finger on.So i went to find
out for about this "dark faerie" if that is really
what she is anyway, and guess what i turned up with,
nothing! "Sorry, your search returned no articles"
said the lenny. So I went to the " faerie info center"
otherwise known as the faeries of neopia page.
Darkness Faerie
And lastly, the Darkness Faeries, minions of the evil
one himself. Lying in wait to tempt those weak of heart,
the power granted by these evil imps is great, but at a
price. These evil Faerie abilities include creating
darkness, draining life and vision at night.
thats what I found out from the common faeries section then i looked into the uber faeries
Uber-Darkness Faerie
This is one of the most elusive creatures in
Neopia, but also one of the most feared. This
Faerie is quick to anger and her wrath is to
be avoided at all costs. Many creatures who
have been bold enough to approach her have
been rewarded with a terrible curse
However, if you do manage to please her she
can become a very powerful ally.

part2


Now all that stuff about the uber-Darkness Faerie is
sensible and fine,but what about the common darkness faerie
"the Darkness Faeries, minions of the evil
one himself."The evil one??? who is this "Evil One" we know that the uber darkness faerie is a girl
so we know that she is not the "Evil One" because the paragrapg clearly
states that the "Evil One" is a boy. The impression you might get from that is
Balthzar, but I would say not because he captures faeries and they would not be his minions ,and the only neopian devil figure is the uber-darkness faerie.
So who is the evil one???? Could the evil one have sompthing to to with the SG
we have all heard so mutch about?And if so what do they want with us, I think the whole SG is based on sompthing more than neopoints,somthing you can only get with loving care and , lots of hard work . Our painted,well trained for life,well trained for the battledome,sweet,obedient , pets.

part3

Maby they are only collecting our neopoints
because almost anyone would give up their pet for 999,999,999,999,999,999,999,99 nps
so if they can offer you that then they can get the best pets of the strongest owners and then they can completlety take over neopia by waging war over the weaklings that are left by using the pets they got from the now mulit-billionare neopians the pets being like the wonderful , legendary, purple shoyru,antorcha.
Mabye the "Evil One" is Dr.Sloth and he is at the head of the SG deraming of taking over neopia with the help of the once good pets who will never again know happiness, and all of the evil fuzzles and the dark faerie is second in command in all this maddness we call the Neopian Shadow Government , and if we dont come up woth somthing fast there will be no neopia as we know it today. We must go further to Identify the SG for that may be our only hope to save the world we know as NEOPIA!

Here is my Theory:
I have notice in the all the chat board, about 75% of the message post on the Newbies are message of people who wants to stole people who are new to Neopets. Most, people who have play for a some time still gets trick by the hacker tricks. I have a friend, who she trust another one who she did not know. She lost 10k on NP. I can not said that all message post on the board are hacker but some of them are very helpfull for I have in another world, have donated tons of NP to new commers.

Well, try the Fruit Machine... It's puzzling to me only 1/10th of the time I win something. And then, the fruit machine sprung up so suddenly. It could be a product of Malkus Vile, or Princess Whatshername (Vyassa?) trying to get her revenge for tha Crown thing!
Sure, the Fruit Machine is free but look at the price of Tchea Fruits and the sort. The SG must be trying to make them worthless! The lost desert foodshop is making a big loss! Nobody buys from them, cause other people can buy it on the Wiz for 1 np! I'm sure Malkus Vile must be trying to make the Lost Desert Food Shop flop. I feel sorry for the poor Grarrl owner!
At least in Faerieland, its more reliable - but wait! What about DARK FAERIES?! Is that why some items in the HT are so stupidly overpriced? They could have provided the Faerie Queen with some special Amulet and told her to raise the price! How did the DFs and the Pant Devil end up on the WoE? I thought Faeries were kind. And I'm sure all the NP the Dark Faerie collects can't be used solely by her - she'd to give about 50% of her 'winnings' to the SG - perhaps the Dark Faerie wouldn't, is actually quite kind but only a bit temperamental and the SG is exploiting her bad side and since the SG couldn't send a rep into Faerieland, they're getting a Faerie traitor instead.

Think of all those NP rolling in. But for whom, you ask? The SG (Neopian Shadow Goverment). Over the last few days there have been a considerable amount of new updates concerning the Petpet Puddle on the News page, including the newly-found Purple Petpet P/B and also you can now paint your Wheelie and Pinceron! I'd say that if the SG is behind this, they've made around 1,000,000 NP by now! Well, there's my theory. It's not very good, but please consider its value, for no one knows what the SG could do with all that NP! Or would do....

Hello! Here's what I noticed that is fairly strange:The Brain Tree. I mean, when you go up to it, it tells you to find knowledge. Could that just be a cover-up for a spy? Also, when you go to explore, if you scroll down to the short description of the haunted forest, it says "beware the beast that lurks behind the tree." I've tried clicking around behind the Brain Tree, and you can't see whatever's behind it.

The Neopian Conspiracy Theories – My case

Okay, this is my first case…and I’m not quite sure where to begin. Some of you may consider my choice of case stupid, or obvious—but if you really think about the facts I’m about to list, you might have the same feeling as me—something is up.
Random events is what I’m talking about, preferably codestone random events. You know—they say you have found a mystical codestone on the floor. Some of you might just think that that really is not a big deal. But think about it. I have two theories to share with you.

Where do the Codestones come from?
1.) Someone dropping a codestone—If I dropped a codestone on the floor, I’d most likely notice—anyway, why would somebody just be carrying around a heavy codestone for no apparent reason? To use at the training school? The places I normally find Codestones are at my inventory. About 90% of the time, if fact, that’s where I have discovered that random event. MY MESSAGE IS TOO LONG; I'LL CONTINUE IT IN ANOTHER NEOMAIL.


2.) Appearing for no apparent reason—Okay, this is just about the only other choice. But, if this is the case—they come out of nowhere—then where are they coming from? They have to come from somewhere, they can’t just appear out of nowhere. I know, I know—you probably just think this is something Adam and the rest of the Neopet Team do. But could it be something else? Where do these mystical codestones come from? The only place you can buy them is the shop wizard, trading post, auctions, etc.
I’ve experienced happenings like this several times before. I will roam around Neopia until I get lucky and have this random event again, and I will start a log for all my findings. I’ll record time, place, any other happenings around me, etc. Like I said, I’m young, and my theories will probably not interest anybody (plus I’m listening to Britney Spears while I write this…another mystery…I have no idea why! I don’t even like her! I won her CD yesterday at a drawing…and the scary thing is…I knew I was going to win it—almost like I made them pull out my name. Stuff like this happens all the time to me, it’s creepy, almost like I’m psychic or I have powers—oops, I’m getting off the subject…) you can ignore this if you wish, but I am interested in searching for an answer—if there is one. Good luck to me, eh? LOL. –Agent Dekan

The reason of the ghosts for the money tree is the donations. the secret government pays the ghost to steel your neopoints and then put them in the money tree. Then if the money tree collects enough money the ghosts steel it and give it to thw secret govenment. Another theory is that many people don't donate anything and the money tree is left with nothing the secret govenment pays the ghosts usally citizenship the ghosts to act that if there is nothing at the money tree to steel from someone and place it in the money tree or act like they stole it. And my theory to the wishing well situation is that while only a small percent of the money given to the wishing well like 250 NP a week the rest goes into their account where they collect huga amounts of intrest and ever wonder about where you get all those neopoints for winning games, the cool offers, prizes come from they get the NP well here is the money tree, wishing well, and the main shops.

Yes shops while neopians have logged off to do work in the real world thire neopets are forced into manditory work to make those "fine" products if not enough people are logged of they force the ghosts and other evil creatures to do the work. Since the labor is free they get 90% of the the price goods the other 10% is used to pay of the shop keepers not to tell. of course kauvra and the highest priced main shops PAY neopets to work or do the work themselves and they still have to pay the secret govenment 90% of all the NP they make If you need more consipiraces please neomail me.

Hello. I was reading your conspiracy theories on the Neopian Times, and I have to say, you got me thinking, lately I've been linking several things to the Shadow Government you speak of.
Really, after reading, I started thinking about the Snowager, I honestly believe he works with the SG, think about it, besides going a stone's throw away to fight in the Ice Arena every so often, he never leaves his cave, yet he has more items than one could possibly imagine, Neggs,. plushies, you know what I'm talking about. How does the Snowager get that stuff ? My guess is he's guarding it for the SG and in turn receives some form of compensation, and the stuff is alot safer with a terrifying killer ice worm than with any safety deposit box. The only reason people are able to steal the occasional item is because the Snowager like everyone/everything else needs sleep, hence the occasional nap here and there.
I don't know if you've ever noticed that or not, I haven't read many of your articles yet, but I felt I should point that out.

Um.. Ok, my theories

Well the first thing I wondered when I started neopets is how such a great big omelette can stay fresh for such a long time, without going rotten before it is finished. It is impossible. But when our neopets eat it, they stay perfectly healthy. Perhaps the omelette has something added to it to stop it from going rotten. But what is it? Are we eating something in the omelette than is unhealthy? Are we slowly poisioning out neopets?
Will we one day get a neomail telling us that our pets have an incurbale disease?

And where is the next egg coming from after the first one has been finished? Is another dinosaur laying another egg? But how could they lay an egg on the plateu without stepping on and destroying the concert hall and other buildings around it? There in never been any evidence that a Humoungous dinosaur has been there!

So if it isn't a dinosaur, then what is it? Where does the egg come from?


And how the pepper, sausage etc. manages to get on half the pieces of the omelette even if you don't have any food in your items (The dinosaur didn't lay a flavoured egg!)

Hope to hear from you!

I think that after the Sahkmet battle, all the sloth clones were destroyed except it. Now it is on the loose and trying to take over the Lost Desert. I believe that #32 was the one that planned the stealing of Coltzan's crown. Why? Because sloth did not want anyone to take advantage of the lost desert. If this worked, even if #32 tried to destroy the lost desert, many people wouldn't help. If my theory is right, #32 is definetly after the lost dessert.

Why? Well, given the theories of the money tree, and the glancing similarity between the two, it should be obvious: the Trees were created by the SG, the Money Tree a success, the Brain Tree an expirimental reject. In an effort to make the Brain Tree incognito, they placed it in the Haunted Woods/Spooky Town, where it seemed as natural as possible.

For instance the large island just northeast of Faerieland. We can see it, but we can't go there. Why not? Is the Shadow Government restricting our travel so that when a new 'area' is opened, we'll all run there to spend our money? Think about it. When Mystery Island first opened, people bought out the Island Merchandise shop a minute after it restocked. Now we wouldn't go there if it was the last shop on Neopia. So is this another mysterious way of theirs to get our precious NP? I think so.
