I did what you said, too, made it in 64 seconds, plus no avatar. But can I borrow some of your luck, please?! ;)

Eep. Commence stick beating. At least you got to keep the cheese!

You Finished in 73 seconds!!!

I used "Quadruple Fudge Cheese" and made it in 59 seconds. No avatar.

It very well may be a coincidence, but its worth noting that I took her advice, got under 60 seconds, and got the avatar on my first try. If its not foolproof then...beat me with sticks for being lucky.

I tried your strategy, and it worked the 1st time, but I didn't get the avatar (57 seconds). When I tried it again, it took 61 seconds, so I didn't get to keep the cheese. :(

Of course you may! *hands over vials of shiny luck*

Funny I got such a random avatar on the first try :/ Ive been trying for the Island Mystic and Snowager ones for months on end. Sorry about those of you who tried the method without success. I hoped to make it clear it couldve been coincidence.

I think it's very mean of TNT to make a random avatar on a game that's already random. I've played six games and only finished in under 60 seconds once (with alkenore cheese), and I didn't get the avatar. There's no strategy to this game; you just have to hope you pick the "correct" option. You should get the avatar if you finish in under a minute.

There are too many random avatars. Avatars should either be simple clickables, require skill in a game, require a long wait (as with the petpet equipping ones), or require some hard work and brainpower (the new tablet one). None of this "luck" crap.

I second your opinion.. it's tough to get under 60 seconds.. and still there's randomness involved? Random^2 >_>

I'm missing a lot of random avatars.. until I've sort of even given up on the game ones.. why bother if there's no way I can get ahead again if I don't get the randoms?

I still haven't gotten snowager, tooth faerie and FFQ.. WOK, WOM and turmaculus o.o My petpet's already level 15 just by visiting him lol! And that geraptiku place too :P

Excuse my rant ;o

....again with an avatar whine. Only avatars I feel totally unfair about are those that inflate paintbrushes...and Buzzin avatar, but personal reasons there.

Anyways, I like random avatars. It's just luck and it's not like people NEED avatars. This avatar isn't exactly...flashy or a true "die hard" avatar.
I, myself, don't mind if it takes me a year to get this avatar. It's random and just another avatar I'll never use. =P I want to for my collection, yeah, but I'm in no hurry for it.

Random avatars, IMO, is better then clickables and game avatars. :D

I third your opinion. I dont mind regular random ones like Sloth popping up and letting you use his avatar. He isnt saying "Not this time...maybe in 6 months when I come by again."
Its only the ones that are random on top of random that make me feel like kicking things. Tooth Faerie, and Snowager being two off the top of my head. Its not as though the people who got them needed any skills, or did anything special besides click a mouse. Guess it adds variety and something to hope for, at least.

You Finished in 55 seconds!!!

Your Score : 900
(and you win that many Neopoints!)

Your Rating : Fantastic

Congratulations, you did it under a minute so you get to keep your cheese!

>.> Ok, so again no avatar. My pet will be eating mutant cheese for a few days. :P

You want annoying random...the Scalleywag one is the king of random wins, IMO. I mean you miss a lot inthat game and even if you win, you might not get the avatar. Cheeseroller might be worse then it, only because you do have to click more.
The Lost Tomb is also random on top of random. Hard enough winning a prize, but even if you get a prize, might not get the avatar. ;)

Im whining and I got this one :P
Of course I see your point too. Maybe Im just bitter about seeing the Tooth Faerie enough times that my pets must need dentures, and not getting her avatar. And then seeing week old accounts posting with it x_x

Wow, so expressing my opinion about the stupidity of random avatars is whining now? And here I thought whining was saying "I neeeeeeed that avatar right noooooow and I'll never get it! TNT is so meeeeeeeean! I'm going to go listen to emo music and cry!" ;)

I have the Tooth Faerie avatar and the Dr. Sloth random one. I still think RE avatars are stupid.

The best avatars are the ones that require skill (I'm proudest of my Meepit Juice Break one), or time (Illusen and Jhudora's quests, any equipped petpet one), or doing something clever (taking bread to the Volcano and getting the toast avatar; collecting orange items, codestones, or dung items) or good timing (the concert hall ones, deadly dice), or solving a puzzle (the temple of 1000 tombs, I saved Mystery Island), or fighting (Black Pteri, the exploding lupe), or winning a contest (Lenny C, Random Contest). Even some of the "luck" ones are okay -- because you know that if you finally land on 1000 on the Wheel of Excitement or your poogle wins in Poogle Racing, you'll get your avatar. I just think RE avatars are stupid. They require no skill, they're way too uncommon (how many people here have the snowager one or the treasure hunt one, seriously?), and they're just no fun.

I agree that they're not as bad as the ones that cause massive PB/morphing potion/Draik egg inflation, but that's another "whine." ;)

The Lost Tomb is also random on top of random. Hard enough winning a prize, but even if you get a prize, might not get the avatar.


That one is annoying. I was talking about the Temple of 1000 Tombs. That one rocked. :)

lol I'm a bit confussed.. you buy your cheese from the techo dude at the start of the game .. spicy juppie cheese is only 150 Np's. You don't need to buy cheese from players shops. ;)


Yeah i know you can buy them from the Cheese Person. i said the cheese price rise just for fun. Hehe... Well just for some info Spicy Juppie Cheese cost 1.5k now :/

I really don't mind if an avatar is random on top of random if I'm not spending a lot of Neopoints or losing items from it. ._.

And I seem to have bad luck at Cheeseroller, this will be one avatar I'll never bother to get. :P
