Ready for the new scores?


This may overwhelm you, so I urge you to take a few breaths first.


You good?


TML - 385 (+232) (rank +3)
Luigi007 - 293 (+107) (rank -1)
Prince Toad - 229 (+170) (rank +7)
Sarcasm - 223 (+69) (rank -1)
Chunky - 202 (+50)
Fireyoshi - 180 (+33)
Knux - 172 (+10) (rank -5)
Parakarry - 131 (+31)
Link2000 - 58 (-58) (rank -2)
SML - 45 (-46) (rank -1)
SM1987 - 21 (-22)

Items:
Luigi007 - Candy, Magic Hand
Knux - Candy
Chunky - Safe

Important information... you now have a target score. The first person to reach this target score will win, and then I'll reset all the scores so that we can play again. I've got this planned well. So anyways, you're reaching for 1 four times. In other words, 1111. Point values for the tasks will be slightly raised from now on. New elements like Add-a-One and item bags will also come into play, so no matter how bleak you think your chances are of winning, there are ways you can come back.

Small task (maximum of 20 points)
This task you cannot do by yourself. (You can, but you'll only earn yourself 2 points). Up to two other people must post in this topic that they give you a gift. They can only give one player a gift. Each gift is worth 10 points. I don't care if this other person is a player or not. If you're really desperate, you are able to give yourself a gift. But that's only worth 1 point, and don't you want the full 10?

Informal survey (random item): Rate the entertainment value of this topic from 1 to 10 and list something you think I should change or alter. Sometimes I actually do listen.
Bonus (6 points): Get a gift from a member whose account is registered near the time mine was. (closest applied player only)

A gift for TML!

A pair of softly luminous, ethereal wings that can bestow its owner the power of flight... As they move, they occasionally shed an incandescent feather or two, and make all near them, not just its owner, feel at peace...

...Retractable for practical purposes. >_>

Survey time: I think this topic is good fun for the family and all ages! I rate it E for Everyone should play it! *reads script* Oh wait... Does a 9 sound like a good score? I presume 10 is something like "This topic kicks my ass it's so good!" The one thing that I would change, were I you, which I'm not, but it doesn't matter, is that I'd have your timed tasks--such as the "Post Soon or Else Lose Points"--take place in the evening when more people can be online.

I rate this topic at 8. It's a very unique and interesting topic, and it's rather entertaining as well. It also adds a slight competitive edge to people, because they want to win... and who doesn't? The only thing that I would change is, like TML said, lots of times you have timed tasks going on when not that many people are online. However, Who's Online is no longer on the forums, so I don't really know how you'd get around to doing much about that. Maybe ask some people when they can be on?

A gift for PT.

I rate this topic a 9. Great challenges. The variety of how the challenges go make this game very unique to many other forum games. However, I feel the probility thing is rigged or something. [img]tongue.gif[/img] Nonetheless, a great topic. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to bribe people to post here.

For TML~

An ocarina made of the purest ice. It never melts, and it only chills if you want it to, which means you can play it like a regular ocarina. Enjoy~

Gift for Parra.

I'll give it a 9. I know how hard it is to come up with consistent creative challenges, having run a lot of stuff that does that. Keeping it balanced so that nobody runs away with the score, and it's always possible to come back, is even more difficult. Actually, I can't think of anything against it, it's just that for it to be a 10 it'd have to be a shining brilliant light of glory, and it's not quite that. Maybe a 9+, though.

Not sure what to change. Maybe lessen the element of luck, a little, although having it there'd be good. Or having some magic hand or revolutionizer protection (or both.)

You could have at least tried to make it a little more discrete. I do have basic logic as to what I should count and what to not count.

Ok, I'll join this thing. I rate the topic a 9, for reasons that have already been stated; I would only be repeating everyone else if I said why I like this topic.

Gift for Chunky Kong. Why? Because I say so.

OH YEAH AND BEFORE YOU DECIDE WHO TO GIVE GIFTS TO REMEMBER WHO'S THE BIRTHDAY BOY HERE [img]tongue.gif[/img] .

The protection from a huge point loss is called the Safe.

That's plenty of time. Let's see what happened...

TML - 405 (+20)
Luigi007 - 303 (+10)
Prince Toad - 239 (+10)
Sarcasm - 223
Chunky - 212 (+10)
Knux - 192 (+20) (rank +1)
Fireyoshi - 180 (rank -1)
Parakarry - 157 (+26)
Vin - 100
Link2000 - 58
SML - 45
SM1987 - 31 (+10)

Items:
Luigi007 - Candy, Magic Hand, Bowser Whistle
Knux - Candy
Chunky - Safe
Parakarry - Boo
Vin - Boo
TML - Magic Hand
Prince Toad - Magic Hand

Small task - maximum of 16 points
Name any kind of shiny or cool stone and then name the first thing you would decorate with that stone in any way. Convince me it would look pretty.

Bonus (8 points) - Of all the players that respond, use the second-most amount of sentences.
Bonus (Add-a-one) - Real easy... use one of the birthstones. (players with less than 100 points only)
