Daily Dare 2016

[Blue]

After a few tries, I achieved 153. Good enough for today. Done. Gold Check...

Lupe Hat? Awesome - Another gallery item for me! I went ahead and bought an extra so I can have one in my gallery and hoard one in my SDB

TEAM CHALLENGE AAA - 4000

This is twice my score, but with a guide, this should be doable.

ETA:

Yes! Got the score. Guides help, but the game rotates, which made it hard for me.

*headdesk* JS has given Abi a book and petpet for their prizes.

AAA gets a wearable and another 1 use battle item. WHY!!!

I really want that petpet!

[Siniri]

Got it in my first game with a guide. Pretty easy.

Wow, AAA's prizes were lame (especially in comparison to a book and a petpet! Sheesh! Could they have mixed up who got what? the items didn't even look that good... Oh, but I haven't gotten the team prize yet; I'm still waiting for my partner to finish.)

[Blue]

Bummer about the prizes today. This game is pretty easy if you hit the patterns right and get most of the gems.

@Sinri - I'm sure your partner will finish sometime this afternoon.

[Pickles]

Not my favorite game, but I've gotten the score before, IIRC, with the help of a guide. I'll hafta find it again, but it should be doable later today when I have more time.

Meh on Abi's prizes being better than AAA's again. I haven't actually gone through and bought many of hers - maybe I should, but I'm debating if I want to bother with it that much this year or not. I'm not sure if I have the time to invest in pricing things out, etc.

A "#1" trophy has appeared on the other side of the map.

And there's some interesting physics going on there.

F=ma is obvious, but what's m=lh? Or is it m=1h?

It looks like numbers to me now, not letters.

m=12 (scratched out)
m=14

Having another look at it, I can see it is a yo-yo. Interesting.

That is an interesting look on it. It does look like a yo-yo. It would highly amuse me if this whole time, he's trying to figure out how to use a yo-yo. HIGHLY amuse me.

[Daze]

Conspiracy Theory:

1. The first drawing (which looks like a finger flinging a yo-yo) is near the Space Station.

2. The #1 cup is near Kreludor.

3. We are receiving a lot of weapons as prizes.

4. SPACE WARS!! (The return of Sloth)

[Pickles]

Bahahaha, Daze! Would be nice, wouldn't it?

Beat my previous high score by 300 points on the second try (my first try, something went wrong, and the score wouldn't send, meh). I used JN's Guide, which made it pretty easy to get to the score needed, especially with the fact that you can study the guide in between levels.

17/17, tally ho...

[Blue]

Thankfully an easy Double Dare day today. Managed to increase my high score by 137, yet still fall short of Siniri's score by 37. Ah well, I still beat AAA and have a gold check mark for the day.

Hmm.. Yo-yo wars in space?

[Daze]

Sutek's Tomb
AAA: 3250

I haven't played this game seriously on my laptop. I won a trophy for ST on my old computer. This should be easily doable.

ETA: Yep, got this first try. I am going for this trophy again on reset.

[Pickles]

Easy peasy today. My high score is nearly 10x what AAA wanted. Got it on the first try.

Just in case anyone needs them...
plzsutekcanihavemoretime - extra 30 seconds once per game
pyramibread - shows a move (unlimited use)


18/18
Two more days left!

[Siniri]

Yep, pretty easy. I made a mistake (several times) trying to type in the code for more time and died early as a result, but I was already well above the score.

(Sometimes you get a terrible starting board with only a few matches, but if you get one with a good run, it's not too hard.)

Instead of using pyramibread, you can also print-screen, click on the hourglass to pause, and search for any moves left on the board. Be careful, though: you only get a limited number of pauses! (This could save you if you're nearly out of time and only need a few more points.)

[Blue]

I think I hit my Achilles heel today. I normally like match 3 games, but this one just stymies me. Not sure why. Might be the timing of when you can click the next match, maybe it's the items. Don't know, but I alway struggle to beat 1.5k on this one.

[Daze]

SMELT today. A very easy game and score. Remember this game has no lives, you can play as long as you want.


Some more conversation from AAA:

(muttering) This is it, this is just the opportunity I need! A secret conclave later this month… Well, Your Highness, I’ll be waiting for you there! Now all I need is the magic powder from the mystical land of Shenkuu..


And AAA has tagged his name on islands? on the map between Lost Desert and Krawk Island.

[Pickles]

Today was easy enough.

I'm kinda scared of tomorrow. Shenkuu games are not my best, nor do I like most of them much. Hopefully it won't be anything too terrible.

The initials by the islands are weird, though!

19/19

[Blue]

SMELT is a weird game and AAA should be easy.

I didn't manage to beat AAA yesterday. No time today to really give it a good try today... Ah well.
