Special Prize:
| Best Site Event January 14-17 | |||
|---|---|---|---|
  32% Obelisk War When an earthquake revealed a mysterious ancient obelisk in Tyrannia, six factions went to war over it, each convinced they deserved it most. To the victors go the boons! |
 19% Altador Cup Tyrannia took the Cup, with Altador placing second and Roo Island coming in third at the eighth annual Altador Cup. This year saw a return of the bracket system for teams. |
 29% Spooky Food Eating Contest When a monster crashed the new eating contest, a pair of dashing brothers hunted it across and under Neovia. WAY under. Who knew those catacombs were so deep? |
 20% Daily Dare Oh, Chadley... *ahem* AAA went to summer camp instead of running Daily Dare this year, leaving Abigail and her new friend Chadley to host the game competition. |
| Best News Day January 16-18 | |||
 14% Lawyerbot Day After Kari's pesky interruption, Lawyerbot Day had plenty of 1s, 0s, and robotic fanart for the ol' tin can, who provided a spooky new poem for the occasion. |
 18% Tyrannian Victory Day Tyrannian Victory Day was celebrated in style in the revamped Tyrannia, complete with a matching foreground and background. Nothing like a marquee to show it off, too. |
 45% Faerie Festival This year's Faerie Festival was notable for the release of six gorgeous new faerie-themed eye shadows and a distinct lack of evil speckled Xweetoks, to the relief of many. |
 24% Artists Take the Day Off Well, this year's Artist on Vacation Day did provide a new How To Draw... and uh, some "interesting" items... Artists, please don't leave again! *cries* |
| Best Species Specific Wearable January 17-19 | |||
 39% Chomby Warrior Encased in rippling sheets of special steel alloy, any Chomby would be the terror of the battlefield with this full-body set. It takes a Chomby to lift the weight of it, too. |
 15% Extravagant Krawk Oh, the parties this outfit will see... this set is fit for the upper echelons of Neopian society with its ostentatious feathers and frills. Sway-approved. |
 29% Dangerous Kyrii With not one but two deadly blades and a book filled with mysterious writing, this set is perfect for the fiercest Kyrii. That hairstyle looks to die for... hope it's not! |
 16% Punk Techo From its boots to its mohawk, this set is the ultimate in punk fashion, sneering at pink and looking on tidy ruffles with disdain. Want to look tough? Look no further. |
| Best Premium Collectible Item January 18-20 | |||
 22% Taelia Handheld Plushie A more adorable, snuggly version of Taelia is not to be found! Really. Attempts to snuggle the real Snow Faerie may result in serious frostbite or snowblindness. |
 21% Opalescent Wig Silvery pale with just a sheen of rosy pink, the versatile Opalescent Wig adds a unique touch to virtually any ensemble. Also reputed to be easy to take care of! |
 39% Peaceful Water Fountain With its soothing fountain and fragrant garden, this background is the perfect place to step away from the commotion and take a relaxing break during the day. |
 18% Spiky Black Lace Cape Splendidly gothic, this cape is just the thing to throw over one's shoulders for a delicate and spooky look without the weight of plush velvet like so many capes. |
| Best New Neopet Colour January 19-21 | |||
 10% Camouflage Lenny With subtle, carefully mottled colour, this Lenny doesn't have that "escapee from a military surplus store" look that camouflage is known for. It looks familiar, somehow... |
 58% Mutant Poogle Like some kind of otherworldly monster from the abyss, the mutant Poogle glares balefully, proving that mutants are more than just Neopets with a little more drool. |
 18% Relic Korbat Just when you thought it was safe to wander through the graveyard, the relic Korbat appeared, lurking like a common gargoyle. There's nothing common about this Korbat colour. |
 14% Woodland Ruki Rukis may come from the desert, but this colour is at home in the forest. With delicate leaves at its joints, this Ruki blends in with trees and rocks rather well. |
| Best Hair January 20-22 | |||
 15% Chadley "Don't bother interviewing other contestants," Chadley tells us. "Nothing can compete with the 'do. I'm delighted to share it with any newcomers to Neopia, though!" |
 26% Corbin The taller Monster Hunter brother was happy to pose for the committee, saying, "We don't get much recognition for our dangerous work, and oh, this is about hair? Weird." |
 27% Kell When asked what gel he uses, Kell responded, "I tried lots of things. Let me just say, ectoplasm isn't ideal. Neither is most slime. That cinnamon scent is nice, though." |
 32% Siyana The only female in the running, Siyana was amused to learn of her nomination. "All I do is run a brush through my hair at dawn. It's just naturally shiny and golden." |
| Best Revamps January 21-23 | |||

| Best NC Accompaniment January 25-27 | |||
 15% Honest Pete Honestly, he's not sure why the Festival of Neggs is such a big deal. It's not like there's massive profit to be made, not like his little side operation... |
 23% Fanatic's Museum This year saw Neopians traipsing through the Techo Fanatic's Museum after he kindly opened his doors to a select few. He appeares to have the biggest AC collection ever! |
 16% Chef Julien's Backstage Tasting Kitchen For anyone feeling adventurous, the chef of the Spooky Food Eating Contest allowed backstage visits to his kitchen, with a few (fortunatly inedible) souvenirs. |
 47% Perilous Catacombs Runic Doors There where plenty of doors in the Perilous Catacombs, but perhaps none so rewarding as the Runic Doors. Strange things lurk in the depths under Neovia... |

 26% Temple of 1000 Tombs Interior Background There's probably a lot of insight to be gained from reading all of these scrolls. Good thing someone organised them. |

| Best New Battledome Challenger February 01 - February 03 | |||
