Congratulations to Hitaro for being the first person to win the prize!

Can someone else give an offer?

Complete. Global. Saturation.

What? Holy shit, I was busy with my real speedrun and didn't notice. Good work Hitaro, you came out of nowhere.

Just curious, what game are you running?

The message on the right is false.

Here's a challenge. Actually, two variations of a challenge. There first one is suprisingly challenging, but comparing to other challenges, it's not worth much.

1.On snow cap, no letting the bunnies go in the holes. You must let all three out, and must be moving at all times, and not in circles. You do NOT have to win 300 points.

2.Do not let the bunnies go in the hole, and complete the star. If you do not chase it, you may let one in, but ONLY one ( otherwise your simply luck manipulating). This is possible, I'll assure you; I've caught two before that weren't in the hole. This is on the difficulty of flower jumping, though slightly easier, so about 1000 or so points would be good.

I did Challenge 5, "Painting the Planet Yellow": http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4692492547106688889

I did challenge 3 ("Conquering the Summit" and "Baron Brrr") in about 2:40: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2580149311601028659

I'm finally on the scoreboard. I now have 1,000 points.

I watched challenge 20, but apparently I didn't make it clear enough that you're meant to complete the level too Tongue

My bad.

Well, that would be a pretty stupid rule, since you're forced to collect two other starbits.

Here's one.

Deep Dark Galaxy - The Sunken Ghost Ship

-Can not press the A button more than 6 times after selecting the stage
-Complete in sub 4:35
-Keep cursor on screen
-No star bits

Points: 850

Also, I offer 1200 worth of Wii Points to the first person who gets 20 000+ points. The winner can PM me information concerning the change, I will not reveal what will be done with it.

Furthermore, I request that no more challenges are to be added after this one for one or two weeks, to let others catch up.

I cannot make videos of those yet because my dvd is not on me now. I borrowed it for a while. When I get it back I will record videos of those. SMG challenges are very good idea. Thanks to you guys Grin

I guess I'll be the first person to post a video of challenge 23. I completed the challenge in about 3:53. (By the way, the name of the stage is "The Underground Ghost Ship," not "The Sunken Ghost Ship," right?)

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8562995500915440639

I pressed down the A button to blast myself out of the cannon, but I didn't release the button until 1:44. The other five times that I pressed the A button should be obvious.

I'm now at 2,450 points.

Hahah, I didn't think of some of the things you did (which I will not mention just to cover my mistake, fuck you, bastard Angry

:-[)

As for the name, I just skimmed it in way less than a sec and "guessed it".

Are you going to post a video for this challenge? I'd like to see how you envisioned doing it when you first came up with the challenge.

Of course I won't. Do you know why I didn't post all of the challenges I had completed as I had completed them? It was because I was afraid somebody would catch on to the fact that I was completing many challenges quickly since I had already posted 3 of them withing 12 hours, would check my filefront account, and decided to do many challenges himself, so he would've won because of an early lead.
I play to fucking win.
Except for this prize, since I'm the offerer.

Also, upon actual inspection, you may have failed the challenge. I will not tell you why (don't worry, it's not the "Keep Cursor on screen" rule), but I will say that I may be mistaken, because I am a fighting game player, and an element of them may be included in this game.

Whoo, I've said too much ;). I'm just going to double-check.

Let me know if you still think I failed the challenge after you double-check.

Hitaro

2008-02-02 08:18:36 pm

I've confirmed that you have failed the challenge. You pressed the A button 7 times.

That is, unless you can prove that you didn't. Care to try?

Hitaro's right. 7. You jumped off the pole, which counts as a press.

You guys are right. I pressed the A button seven times. Somehow, I forgot to count the jump I do to get the star. I'll redo the challenge and post a new video.

Points: 300
Video Proof:

#12: Stage: Underwater Cosmic Luigi Race

Points: 300
Video Proof:

#16: Stage: Sea Slide Galaxy: Hurry, He's Hungry

1250 points for a guy who wasn't even gonna do the uber challenges because he sucks at platformers. Tongue

Well, that's youtube for ya.

I'll add the points once their server is back online. It's not that I don't believe you, but I need to verify before I can add the points.

Edit: Done.
