Do you pay Tombola?

Does anyone here actually give Tombola NP when he asks for it?

It pours in so fast there are either a whole lot of generous/stupid
users out there, or the whole thing is fake.

I sometimes give... but with 5 windows open most of the time, by the time
I get back to that one and press refresh he doesn't need nps anymore and
is open. But if it's still there, I give whatever the last two digits
are... like if he wants 130,817nps, I give 17nps. So I never give more
than 99nps.

I get good stuff all over the site, what's a couple points to me?

I give sometimes... I guess that makes me stupid!
I get lots of great stuff from it, so I dont mind giving back.

I give sometimes. Not sure if in your mind that makes me generous or stupid.

Hmm... maybe that's WHY you get codestones. I never give him a dime,
and I get mostly booby prizes.

Is Tombola corrupt, awarding codestones in exchange for kickbacks?
Neoscandal!

Long-time players do it out of generosity, noobs because they don't know
any better.

I read somewhere, and I can't remember where, that neopets works on like a
karma system. What I mean is if you give, you receive.
So, I always give to Tombola when I can, usually in 500 np chunks. I also
donate 5-10 items daily to the money tree, and occasionally cash.
I get codestones like bodcat does lol, both from Tombola and from Random
Events. I have gotten the "Since you have been so nice" random event 4 or 5
times that resets your score on a game that you played earlier. There for
awhile I had a random item given to me every day, like a shield, codestone,
potion, goodie bags, book, map, or food item.
So, I'm not sure if it's true, but in my experience I think it is.
Hope that helps.

I do give point whenever I can. I give no more than 150NP. The reason I do
so is that it inceases your chances of getting something and it also
increases your index for random events.

That would make sense, I donate to the tree constantly, probably 10-25 items
a day!
