GMC and a plot? At the same time? Oy.

I am not sure with whom I shall side. Perhaps the living. I feel half-dead lately, so it could go either way :P

Well, since I was born on the Day of the Dead, I guess I'll join Team Dead. I neverrarely choose the winning faction, so take that into consideration when you choose...

At least today's challenges are easy. Was heading to bed, but just in case JS forgets to do a 1-day + a bit first challenge, better knock them out.

Edit: Do you have the Day 1 challenges flipped, Daze? I ended up having Tangrams despite being on Team The Dead.

I was leaning towards Living, but I'll go with the bandwagon. Dead it is. It will go along with how I have been feeling the last month or so on the road.

Re: GMC - Living vs. Dead

Well, JS did it right. It's still Day 1. At least I don't have to worry about it tonight, when I'm working long hours again today (and then heading back to the ninja gym to play - I had a long workout yesterday, so I don't need to do any strength-training today - that was the bargain I made with myself when I didn't want to do the second round of my circuit yesterday).

Edit: I didn't make it to the ninja gym that day because I had to work late, but I went and played Wednesday instead. Today it's back to strength-training. Anyway, I'm 4/4 so far. I've found the challenges pretty easy thus far; I don't think I've had to play any game more than 1 time, and most of them I've gotten bored and ended the game early (after beating the score). Hopefully it will continue.

I haven't played any extra games this time. It doesn't really take a ton of time to send minimal scores in a bunch of different games, anyway.

Oops!! Thankyou for picking that up Siniri. All fixed.

Yay! A bandwagon for the GMC. Go Us!! :)

I hope Pickles is able to play.

So far, so good. I have all gold ticks. I haven't found any challenging so far, although it did take me a couple attempts at Magma Blaster. My fingers were tripping all other themselves. Lol.

Re: GMC - Living vs. Dead

Fri Nov 24, 2017 8:10 pm

Yay, Bandwagon! Go team :)

So far so good for me as well. All done on day-of. I just need to force myself to play extras from the list so that I do not get to the last day and need to play 50 games for the final challenge!

Neo site is super laggy today. Must be a holiday ;)

Blue, you are going to be so pleased with one of today's prizes.

I thought of you as soon as I saw it. :D

Another day of easy challenges. I ended my games as soon as I got above the required scores because of time (except Florg, which I barely beat because it was super glitchy - twice the petpets went straight through my robot arm, but I still managed to beat it on my first game).

Re: GMC - Living vs. Dead

Sat Nov 25, 2017 5:54 pm

Thanks Daze for the heads-up... Yay, another mug! :) I still have not opened any of my completion prizes, but was able to snag one off of the SW super cheap.

I am glad that the required scores are not terribly taxing. I am not a huge fan of Feed Florg in general, but was able to manage the required score (plus a scoach) on the first game.

I signed up for team Living before looking here, so I guess I'm the odd one out (and will likely get the silver trophy, from the looks of things). Ah well. Thankfully, travels worked out so I have been able to keep up with gold check marks all the way through. One day left, tally-ho.

Re: GMC - Living vs. Dead

Mon Nov 27, 2017 5:22 pm

*sigh* I got over 50,000 on the first level of Spellseeker, sent it, and... bouncing Hasees. Refreshed the GMC page and saw my connection was down (even though my computer thought I was still connected to the network. The internet came back a fraction of a second later, but Hasees kept bouncing.

I'm glad the timer is long. Hopefully the internet will cooperate for the remaining challenges.

Edit: And done. I only needed 22 games to get to 50, but I kept forgetting to send super-low scores on some of them. Plus I got a fire faerie quest and got distracted picking up 4 different quest items in a single drop in the thrift shoppe. You know the site is dying when you can pick up a yew wand, ember boots, and ... whatever the other rare drop I grabbed was! Thankfully item 4 was the pumpkin lid hat i needed for the faerie.

All gold checks for me. The only game I struggled with was the berry one because the first time it loaded it glitched. (I kept getting guys that wouldn't tell me what they wanted and took up space at the table, and the guys were appearing 2-3 at a time, even on the first level. Very strange. Thankfully reloading made it play like normal, and I looked up to realize I'd surpassed the required score.)

All gold checks for me. Tally-ho. It was relatively easy this year, I thought.

Re: GMC - Living vs. Dead

Tue Nov 28, 2017 2:37 am

All gold checks for me as well! 8)

It was a bit easier than years past. What really helped me the most was making sure to play extra qualifying games along the way each day so I did not have to play 30 games today. Only 6 extra to complete the 50 games challenge :)

Trophies and prizes are out.

Feel ripped off about the final team scores. The end should have been at midnight, but it kept going for almost another 5 hours, in that time the score changed.
