Chaos in Neopia
Oh no! The faeries of Neopia seem to have gotten into a fight, and the only way to broker peace is to solve puzzles! Luckily, some solvers already completed most of the feeder puzzles, but it's up to you to figure out these metas. You may check the answer to a meta or missing feeder with the answer checker.

There are a few straggler feeders, but you won't need them to solve the metas. The solvers have notated how long they might think the answer is.
