2016 Games Master Challenge

[Azusa]

Are Day 6's challenges supposed to be out by now?

[Reiqua]

They're out for me now

EDIT: Also so far as I can tell, if you played Sutek's Tomb and Qasalan Caper on previous days, you don't have to play them again to qualify for the score send challenge.

Neopian Battlefield Legends? Why does this sound so familiar? *checks and it looks like I have the highest score possible* Well now...

*plays* Oh, this game. The game I defeated with a tactic called "the gauntlet". *eyes that trophy* Might as well. (The Gauntlet: build your towers to line the enemy attack path. Upgrade them fully. Watch the carnage.)

This, kiddies, is a perfect game that demonstrates why "charge blindly at the enemy without any tactics" is a bad battle strategy.

I could have sworn that the two teams should get different games, but I think that's only been the case in like, 3 of them.

The adventure Kougra game was HELL! *hisses loudly and causes random explosions*

[Tara]

Villains are so lucky to get Coal War Tactics compared to Mootix Drop.

How is Kookia even considered hard? Lol the Stealthy Kookia is cute though.

[Azusa]

*prepares to waste the entire evening away playing 50 qualifying games + the dreaded Mootix Drop*

For Fyora's sake I can't even get 50 points in Mootix Drop D:

... and I still haven't passed the Kougra game ... :/ I'm so bad at games lol

[Reiqua]

I hate igloo garage sale.
1 hour later and I've got a score of 650+ three times, but haven't made the 700 :K

EDIT: Aaand successfully got it on the game after posting this. Evidently I jinxed it, but in a good way (:
Of course, it did help that I got three dubloons in the first two levels when it's easier to double your score...

[doctortomoe]

If anyone wants to sell me their stamp, let me know

[Liou]

Played Coal Wars for the first time.
Hello, clone of Petpet Park's Boat Blasters!

Kookia can be tough if you're aiming for a good score, as it goes really fast and you need speedy reflexes in the later levels, but the required score was so low!
THAT PRIZE THOUGH OMW THANKS RAZUL YOU'RE A BAE

All the other challenges in this one were fairly easy for me. ^^
Jubble Bubble is an old favourite, Garage Sale is an old... ok, and Wrath of the Snowager is always in my favourites just for its concept, because FINALLY someone thinks of helping poor Snowy against all those thieves. :c The poor little giant ice snek only wants to nap with its beloved toys but can only catch 2 hours' sleep in a day, and still gets toys stolen. Isn't it sad??? It is sad.
I do love the music on the menu screen, though.
I can picture the Snowager going around with a jukebox that plays that music and jamming to it.

Wrath of the Snowager also keeps making me wonder how a Chia like a little potato on legs carrying a sack about as large as itself can outrun -on ice- a giant snek made of ice that is sliding on ice.
(Clearly it's because the Snowager is so sleep-deprived and only fueled by caffeine at this point.)
Also has anyone noticed that when the Chia thief uses its ability to attract fallen toys back to itself, it make a kind of dubsteppy sound? "WUB-WUB-WUB-WUB *toys slide towards Chia*"

Finally gets a score over 200 for Mootix Drop, checks challenges page, notices that I didn't start the timer. RAAAAAAAAAAAAGE!!

Edit: So I started the timer and got a score of 266, sent score and checked the challenged page but it didn't register my score and I can't collect my prize. I've already sent the maximum number of scores today too .... should I send a ticket?

Edit: I also realise that on the qualifying games page, Mootix Drop was "complete". 

[Reiqua]

My internet dropped out two games before the 50 and I'm not sure if I'll be able to get it working again before the day's over. It was my last challenge for the entire GMC. I had gold checks for everything. I've worked so hard for this trophy. Ive actually lost sleep over it tonight and I'm dead tired. I'll be super mad if I can't get this trophy...

(And no I can't even hotspot my phone, the function doesn't work for some reason)

This has been Reiqua's Rants.

[Zoey]

Funnily enough Mootix Drop was one of my easiest games... LOL! I used to play it a lot. It's just a matter of memorizing drop patterns...

But Igloo Garage Sale and Jubble Bubble though... THE LATTER ESPECIALLY. IT TOOK ME FOREVER. And by forever I mean like at least twenty minutes LOL! (which is the longest I've ever taken to try to beat a game on this markedly easier GMC than last year, where Edna's Shadow took something like an hour)

Reiqua - Oh no! D: Here's hoping it gets fixed before the end of the day! D:

[Winter Jewel]

Lulz I've never played Coal War/Boat Blasters before ever. And I only have one evening to figure it out? dis gun b gud

Also I'm thrilled that the grand prize this year is another stamp (although I think the GP is always a collectible). I personally don't collect these, but these GMC collectibles go for a huge amount of NP as I learned with the Sun and Moon scarab. Getting all gold checks is worth it.

Even though you sent 3 scores for the day, you can still try and beat the 200 and it'll count.

As for me, I think this is the first time EVER I have completed all the challenges and on the day released. I am in shock.

hard to say what's the worst, but the last game was Igloo. I kept getting killed in the 600 range, but lucked out into a drop of high value items to get me to 800.
