That was a horrible plot, it ties in my view with the petpet one. I got stuck with some of the games, but it still sucked. I WANTED FIGHTING!! WE NEED A WAR!

Wow, you're very generous. I would have preferred the petpet plot to this nonplot. The Lenny Conundrum is, on average, harder than any AotA step was. At least in the petpet plot, the comic made some sense, the steps made sense in the context of the comic, some of them had a bit of difficulty, and there were at least a few battles to be had.

In this plot, the comic made little sense, any scene of potential danger was quickly segued away from with no resolution (Chekhov's guns galore), and the steps were unimaginative, irrelevant, simplistic, and showed very little effort.

Avatar, site theme, and a silver trophy since I didn't get two of the fixing prizes. Whatever...

Edit: Oh, a few items appeared in my inventory. Including a background, yay.

Apparently there is a 4th trophy (higher than gold), a few people have them. There are also extra prizes: Steam Jacket (Wearable) and Magma Blaster (Weapon), Portable Steam Furnace and Jordie Bobblehead but no-one knows exactly how these were obtained.

Maybe completing everything first day of release, or within a certain amount of time of it? I was a day late with the Volcano Run (or whatever) prize, and with the first day's machinery fixing, and got the Gold Trophy and all of the aforementioned prizes that go with it.

I have to say that I like the information on the Giant Book of Crosswords (Good for those less than exciting adventures...). Looks like TNT poking fun at themselves for making a less-than-exciting adventure that we all got to slog through. I also rather like the site theme, it's pretty nice.

Doesn't quite make up for the plot being horrible, but eh. Can't do anything about that.

Dark Cave Background (Wearable)
Giant Book of Crosswords
Bottle of Lava Keyring

And a silver trophy. I did everything too!!!

Horrible plot, although the background is worth quite a bit, for now.

I'm thoroughly underwhelmed. -.- Sigh. I got the 4th Place Trophy (Pumice Stone-thing) and the Toiletry Kit/Slush Maker Items. (And Avatar/Site Theme.) -prods- The only steps that I didn't do were the Let It Slide Version with Clara... and the final step (fixing the Generator-thing). The Trophies must be something to do with the last step, I suppose... sigh. There was horrendous weather over Northern England and South-West Scotland during the extended weekend when the last step took place. There was terrible flooding and the like... thankfully I wasn't affected by flooding but my house did suffer a Power Cut from the Friday to the Saturday and then rather bad Surges and Dips until the Tuesday night (I think, I can't quite remember... :oops:). So I didn't even know the last step existed until it was too late. (I guess I'm irked because I was expecting a third place Trophy... although since I have no idea how the Trophies were awarded may be it was my inability at Let It Slide that let me down. Heh.)

I guess the Pumice Stone matches those Wooden Medals they gave out for this year's Altador Cup. :P
