Daily Dare

Wait a minute....we're being challenged each day with the featured game?

I wouldn't think so. It just means we'll get x2 NP's for each score sent. Plus beating the daily dare gets you a prize. I rarely play the featured game so my NP's being doubled incidentally is nice in my mind.

I thought something weird was going on, I was like "Day 18, what in the world???" I was all set to play Ice Cream Machine, too... Abigail's scores look pretty easy to beat, though, so uberiffic shouldn't be too hard.

Wait, so can you challenge Abigail after you've challenged AAA? This really makes no sense then. If you have to pick either or, then once you've challenged Abigail there's no point in challenging AAA unless you don't want to final prize for defeating Abigail on every launch day, right? So by saying you want to switch over to AAA, you're doing so because you want whatever the prize is for the day instead of whatever the Uberiffic prize will be? Because if you didn't pick AAA first and win, the best possible end prize you'll get is the Megasuperb one.

I was under the impression that you cannot change your mind once you've decided. Anyhow...I just defeated Abagail and recieved Destruct-O-Munch!

EDIT:
And AAA is blocked out for me now...so I take it you cannot play both and you cannot change your mind.

Well, what I said is mostly in response to _ei, assuming she means for the next day's challenge. She wouldn't be able to get the uberiffic prize if she challenged Abigail on one day and AAA on another.

That is what the Uberiffic prize is for - those who play against Abigail and/or Aaa.

The Ultimate prize is for those who only play against Aaa.

Defeat AAA or Abigail on the launch day of all 31 games

Since you can only challenge one of them per launch day, that would mean that once you pick a challenger, you have to stick with them every launch or else you forfeit the uberific prize. You cannot beat Abigail on every launch day if on one day you challenge AAA and vice versa. I assume you'd be able to challenge AAA in destructomatch tomorrow, maybe, and get that prize

Yes, you can only pick one per day, you can choose a different challenge on the next game.

Ei was stating that like me, would only be able to challenge Aaa on certain games (therefore getting a better prize for that game) but overall only would be able to get the Uberiffic prize.

The Ultimate Prize - Defeat AAA on the launch day of all 31 games.

Uberiffic - Defeat AAA or Abigail on the launch day of all 31 games.

Megasuperb - Defeat AAA at all 31 games by the end of the Daily Dare's 31st day.

Spifftastic - Defeat AAA or Abigail at all 31 games by the end of the Daily Dare's 31st day.

There would be no need to make the distinction between the The Ultimate and Uberiffice or Megasuperb/Spifftastic if you had to stick with the same challenger.

I think I get where we're not understanding each other. The way I'm reading the prizes is that if you defeat AAA on each launch day, you'll get all prizes. If you defeat Abigail on each launch day, you'll get all prizes but the ultimate one. If you defeat AAA by the end of the month in all games, but not on every launch day, you will not get the uberific prize. I.E. you cannot get the uberific prize using a combination of defeating AAA or Abigail on each launch day. You have to either beat AAA everyday or Abigail and not go back and forth.


Gah. Confusing. I see what you're saying now if you wait until later to challenge AAA, but that's not how it sounded at first and it all depends on if they let you go back and challenge the other person after launch day.

The way TNT have worded it is causing problems all over the boards.

But as I posted, why would TNT make the distinction:

The Ultimate Prize - Defeat AAA on the launch day of all 31 games.

Uberiffic - Defeat AAA or Abigail on the launch day of all 31 games.

They could have put: beat AAA or Abigail to win the Ultimate prize.

But the Ultimate prize is only for those who can beat the Master Gamer.

Uberiffic doesn't need AAA but TNT are saying you can still use him but you wouldn't get the Ultimate prize.

[Huggles]

The distinction would be there so that you would also get the uberific prize for defeating AAA since you wouldn't be able to challenge Abigail for it. I.E. the four prizes are completely independent, not cumulative. If you defeat AAA on every launch day, you'd get all four. If the uberific prize was just for defeating Abigail on launch day, then you wouldn't be able to get it by defeating AAA on launch day since you're forced into choosing one or another.

I am sure you will only get 1 of the prizes.

If you are really good, you get the Ultimate Prize. IE - beat the Master at the games on the day of release.

If you are 2nd best you get Uberiffic - beat Abigail by herself or with AAA's help at the games on the day of release.

Same scenerio for the next 2 prize levels but you beat the games during the month but not on the launch day.

From the game:

If you can beat their scores, you'll win special prizes! AAA and Abigail will be challenging you to a different game each day, so stop by often!

Once your score has topped AAA's or Abigail's (depending on whose Dare you accepted)

[Huggles]

But that's not how it's worked before. I mean, obviously we haven't done this before, but in war/plots/puzzles you've frequently gotten the lesser prizes along with top reward. If you defeat either one on every launch day, that automatically satisfies the Spifftastic requirements and it makes sense that you would get that prize too. That's where I'm confused. Nowhere does it say that you are going to end up with only one additional end prize.
