Games Master Challenge: Sun vs Moon has started

[Daze]

Ohhh, that is even worse.

I hope it fixes itself, Siniri.

I have played BB twice, the first time I got the 00 score and didn't send it, then I read the boards and replayed it and sent the 00 score and it went through. I claimed my prize ok though. I am just about to play for the bonus (just refreshed the batteries with lunch).

So far my bonus prizes haven't been too bad.
Random Challenge bonus prizes:
Kreludor Balloon
Altadorian Nectar
Aroota
Nova Lamp

Games Challenge bonus prizes:
Sunglasses Book
Gilded Crossbow (and TNT are still giving out weapons!)
Moon Dust Scroll
Natural Wonders of Neopia: Shenkuu

[Siniri]

I was editing while you were posting, Daze. I re-navigated from the news instead of from the game room, and that fixed it. I'm done with today's. I should play some qualifying games so I don't have too many to do, but I was trying for an avvie earlier and am gamed out for the day.

ETA: There are 127 games, 7 days, and 23 challenges. If we have to play all the games by the end, we need to average 18 games/day (plus one extra on one of the days). Guess I'll aim for 20 today.

Oh goodie, it's this year's GMC :/
Great timing, as usual...

I'm on Team Moon. No hesitation, even though I very much dislike Spinacles. It was my Achilles heel a few years ago.

Also - the 404 error appears to be fixed.


Woah. I nearly forgot about the bonuses. I'll need to do them later or I'll be late for work!

ETA: Knocked out the remaining 3 Bubble Beams games during lunch today. As of now, I'm current

I doubt we'll need all 127. In previous challenges, we've needed somewhere between 60 and 75 different scores, and most times, there've been more games than the require number (I think the first year was the only exception to this, though I could be wrong?).

That being said, I'm somewhere over 40 different games sent already - I'm expecting to be busy for the next couple days with the holiday and all, so I wanted to get ahead rather than get behind.

Strangely enough (and I never thought I'd say this), I actually *enjoyed* playing Attack of the Gummy Dice today. I'm not sure I've touched it since that second Daily Dare... (except maybe for pretty low score sends in some GMC's for total games - but even then, I think I've skipped it)

[Daze]

Bonus prizes for me today:

Alabriss
Searing Scroll of Light
Easy Origami Flowers
Gaseous Moonpie

Starry Hot Dog
Sunglasses Book
(Grrr! I played 5 times, but the last 2 did not register, so back I go). Haha! My mistake. I forgot what the score was and posted a too low score.
Well Decorated Meat
Black Leather Helmet

[Siniri]

Mine were fairly easy today. The best combo would have been Top Chop and Ready to Roll, but we each had to have a slightly slower game -- it's only fair.

Today's bonuses:
Kreludor Balloon
Finely Ground Bean Powder
Mystical White Cloak
Staragus

and:
Gaseous Moonpie
Black Leather Helmet
Lighting the Lamps
Bowl of Pita Chips

[Daze]

Although I can get all scores necessary today, I am a little bummed that the Sun team my favourite game today - UBII and with such a low score!

Moon team got Spinacles, which is such a boring game to play and also Edna's Shadow which is a game I get so confused playing! LOL. I am glad the score needed is under my highest (not by much though).

I have only played 1 of those games off the qualifying list so far, so at least I am not doubling up on games played (so far).

** Just a tip. The Games Challenge with 2 games, you will need to play 1 (send score), then play the other (send score) and alternate between them for the challenge to be accepted.

Bonus Prizes:
Bowl of Pita Chips
Siyana Stamp
Cheese Bowl
Gilded Crossbow

Black Leather Helmet
Orange Chocolate Nova
Light Faerie Breath Mints
Chen-Ra Son of the Sun

Light Faerie Cereal
Natural Wonders of Neopia: Shenkuu
Light Faerie Cookie Sandwich
Light Faerie Breath Mints


I agree Siniri, in the smaller version it does, but I am slightly disappointed in the Background, it just doesn't look as nice as I thought it would.

Time Taken 7:31. You can get 50,000+ by finishing the first level. I played on until I lost all my lives. It is a good game to get 1000 nps from.

[Siniri]

Start the timer before you open the Nova Defender window or you'll have to play an extra game. Which, if you hate it as much as I do, is annoying, even if the score is pretty low.

My bonuses:
Bows and Pharaohs (Sutek's Tomb is about as long as Spinacles, I think):
Aroota
Nova Fruit
Nova Lamp
Wand of the Light Faerie

Timed Challenge:
Kreludor Balloon
Light Faerie Hair Clip
Orange Chocolate Nova (Ew. Way to ruin chocolate, TNT.)
Altador Meatloaf ("This meatloaf is topped with a butter sauce and some asparagus." Ew. Way to ruin asparagus, TNT.)

Mystery Challenge:
Wain
Chocolate Momo (momo? what's a momo? "Dessert dumplings filled with banana and covered in chocolate." sounds yummy)
Moon Soup
Shenkuu Mountain Miso Soup ("Me so hungry for miso soup!"... "me so unoriginal, TNT")

Is it just me, or does the shooting star background look sort of like the Snowager?

ETA: I'm going to have to play all the Altador games, aren't I? I'm not a fan of Crisis Courier, and I detest Chariot Race. I can only hope their required scores are as low as the required scores so far.

[Pickles]

Kinda ugh that Spinacles was today. I don't dislike it, but it's such a long game for the amount of time that most (adults at least) have free from cooking on Thanksgiving. Ah well, managed to get it anyways.

Siniri, I'm guessing you'll be playing most of the Altador games, and probably a lot that are from Lost Desert, MI, etc. I've personally been focusing on playing those for my extra games - though I'm definitely not getting a whole bunch of extras in today - waaaay too tired after the cleaning and cooking (even if I had help).

[Blue]

Argh. No time today for this. And, I HATE Spinnacles.

I agree with Pickles - there it's far too much to do today, and I have not had any time to do neo today. :-(

Happy enough with the games today, the scores are very doable (although I don't particularly like playing Berry Bash or Stowaway Sting). I am so glad I did not have to play Extreme Herder 2. I really hate that game.

Bonus prizes:

Searing Scroll of Light
Sun Scroll
Frosted Moon Cookie
Altadorian Nectar

Urchin Surprise
Shenkuu Draik Stamp
Alabriss
Sun Scroll

Shenkuu Draik Stamp
Starry Hot Dog
Nova Lamp
Olive and Feta Pie

You have added Shenkuu Draik Stamp into your Stamp Album!

'Wow! That was very interesting!'
Searing Scroll of Light vanishes in a puff of purple smoke!

Blargh. Meerca Chase was awful. My first 3 games of Extreme Herder 2 had me worried, because Balthazar kept spawning right next to ~5 petpets with me on the other side of the pen, but my high score was 505, so I calmed down, and then was easily able to beat the required score several times in a row. My second scoring game, I even set a new high score (only 510, but still...). The worst for MC was when I got 248 on an attempt for my last bonus. The special neggs were few and far between, so I had to actually collect ~25-32 neggs each game. At one point, a power negg appeared -- right between 6 red neggs with absolutely no way to access it. At least it's done.

Bonuses:
The Pen is Mightier:
Lighting the Lamps
Orange Chocolate Nova
Light Faerie Cereal
Gelert Night Vision

Berry or Negg:
Nova Lamp
Cheese Bowl
Orange Chocolate Nova (seriously, thanks, but can I have something different? they're gross)
Figs With Honey Sauce

The Guests Know Best:
Staragus
Flask of Olive Oil
Shenkuu Mountain Miso Soup
Wain

[Pickles]

I don't particularly like Stowaway Sling, but I hate Extreme Herder more, and once I got back into the swing of things with SS, it wasn't an issue. I was definitely hoping to not have to play it Extreme Herder. The others were no big deal - I love Turmac Roll and Meerca Chase and I'm not too bad at Berry Bash, either.

[Siniri]

I forgot to mention the glitchiness I had in MC, in which it would fail to respond to the keys (or have a delayed reaction). It was random, so I couldn't predict when I actually needed to hit the key to navigate a tight spot.

I just hope we don't have a high score in ICM to send; that is the glitchiest game for me, and lag sometimes equals instant auto-death in that one.

[Daze]

Another 4 games I haven't played yet, which is good.

I like all but Petpet Rescue, but all scores are well within my reach. A nice easy day!

For the Moon Team:
Petpet Rescue is not on the Qualifying Games list. Nice one TNT!

So at this time, this challenge cannot be completed.
