PLAYER POINTS!!!! YOU WIN YOU GET POINTS!!! - VGF

**Platinum** · 05-27-2006, 08:54 AM

OK, this is the Challenge Topic. You can challenge others (to beat your high score(s). And if anyone does beat the high score(s) and keeps it for 24 hours they will receive points to be used in the vbPlaza. There is no set point limit, but please be able to play the person points that you set. Thank you.

P.S. if any questions please PM me or Deku

DK · 05-27-2006, 11:22 AM

So if you challenge someone and they beat your score, you have to pay them? Well what happens if they don't, then?

**Dr. Horrible** · 05-27-2006, 12:36 PM

I think it's intended to be more of an open challenge with the intent of provoking a little competition in a game in which you have the high score.

For example, I really like Tetris and I currently have the high score. It's been a long time since I've even seen a new score on that scoreboard, so I'm offering 3000 points to anyone who can beat my score(I'd offer more for a score like that, but my points were wiped out. Maybe I'll offer more later).

However, there's a lot of freedom here. If you'd like to make a wager with a specific member that he or she can't beat your score in a certain ammount of time, or if you'd like to set a sort of entrance fee to an open challenge, there's nothing stopping you. You can even challenge a member to see which of you can get the higher score at the end of some predetermined date, even if neither of you has the high score.
In fact, if there's a highscore that isn't yours and you just happen to think it has stood for too long, you can challenge people to beat it, but it will be your points on the line. Again, there's a lot of freedom here.

**Dr. Horrible** · 05-28-2006, 11:49 PM

I might as well get the ball rolling. I'm issuing 3 challenges.

700 points to the first member who can beat and hold my Bubbles high score for 24 hours.

700 points to the first member who can beat and hold my Beach Pong score for 24 hours.

700 points to the next member who can break 1,000,000 points in Tetris. Three thousand points still goes to the first member who can beat my current Tetris high score; they don't even have to hold it.

**Platinum** · 05-29-2006, 10:33 AM

Curveball- half of all my points that I have
UFO- 500 points

Keep these highscores for 24 hours and you will get the points. (you don't have to have both)

**Dr. Horrible** · 06-12-2006, 11:24 AM

I'm bumping all my 700 point rewards to 1000 points, and I'm giving away 1000 points to the first person who can beat and hold my Bugz score for 24 hours.

**Dr. Horrible** · 06-25-2006, 03:39 AM

Well my Beach Pong score got beaten, and boy did it get beaten. While I suspect that you managed to get it to bounce straight up and down on the paddle (I managed it once, but my mouse sensitivity is so high that simply trying to take my hand off the mouse moved it too much) a deal is a deal. You'll get your points in the next day or two.

**Platinum** · 06-26-2006, 01:03 PM

sorry Deku no points for you

**Dr. Horrible** · 06-26-2006, 02:11 PM

We'll see about that.

comeonman1111 · 07-07-2006, 02:28 PM

sweet....so how do i start a challenge?

**Dr. Horrible** · 07-07-2006, 03:09 PM

You just kind of do it. Say what score is involved in your challege, and how many points you'll give to the person who beats it.

Oh, so THIS is why I got those points.

Well, here's 500 points to whoever can beat my Glops 2 score.

**Dr. Horrible** · 07-15-2006, 09:54 AM

Your friendly neighborhood Deku Trii here issuing a new challenge. I'm going to try something new here and see how it works out.

In an effort to stir things up a bit, I will be awarding 500 points to anyone who can beat the oldest standing high score. Currently, that high score is for Hexxagon. If and when someone beats that score, points will be awarded and the challenge will then apply to the "new" oldest high score.

Savvy?

**Dr. Horrible** · 07-20-2006, 01:07 PM

I aught to mention, if you do manage to beat the oldest high score, either let me know here or PM me. Since the high score doesn't belong to me, I won't automatically know if it gets beaten.

**Dr. Horrible** · 07-20-2006, 04:01 PM

The Hexxagon score has been toppled with a perfect score of 58! But...I am the one who did it, so nobody gets any points. Anyway.

The oldest high-score in the Arcade now is for Asteroids. Be the first one to beat 117600 in that game to win 500 points!

**Dr. Horrible** · 08-16-2006, 12:50 AM

It has come to my attention that I've got a butt-load of vbPlaza points, so in honor of that, I've decided to up the rewards in my challenges. While I'm at it, I'll go ahead and list all of the active challenges.

Deku Trii's challenges:
Bubbles: 2000 points to the first member who can beat and hold my Bubbles high score for 24 hours.

Bugz: 2000 points to the first person who can beat and hold my Bugz score for 24 hours.

Tetris: 2000 points to the next member who can break 1,000,000 points in Tetris. 5000 points goes to the first person who can beat my score.

In addition, 1500 points will be given to anyone who beats the oldest standing high score. The oldest high score at the moment is Asteroids, which is nearly 200 days old.

Platinum's Challenge:
Curveball- Half of all Platinum's points will go to anyone who can claim his Curveball score for 24 hours.

Sai's Challenge:
Glops 2: 500 points to whoever can beat Sai's Glops 2 score.

Slife · 08-16-2006, 05:35 PM

Oh, it's bubbles. Not bubble popper. Never mind.

**Dr. Horrible** · 08-16-2006, 06:00 PM

Yeah. I can see how that could be confusing.

Kae · 08-16-2006, 10:36 PM

I would go for Bubbles, but then I realized just how long it takes to get a high score in that now.

I don't have the attention span.
