Kongregate Brag Board

so... i had everything but mada infected by day 13, starting in greenland... had the world dead except mada on day 67. really really nice and foolproof strat bandit. i think it works from greenland too, although i may have just gotten really lucky too, as brazil was infected by greenland around day 4-5.



score is 214,175

[banditcom]

That's why I made it because it's an actual step-by-step with strategy vs oh do this and get lucky. Only lucky part is getting the start correct and getting everything infected.

[Tasselfoot]

trial 2... 1st start in NZ was awful... 2nd try got all but Mada (had THREE ships go into port, but didn't infect!!!). All dead but Mada in 87 days.

So like why isn't there a link to Kongreguide on Kongregate?

[Tasselfoot]

the same reason there isn't a link to ffrtokens on ffr.

Going by bandit's strategy:
1. Everywhere but Madagascar
2. Peru, Greenland, Argentina and Madagascar
3. Greenland and Madagascar
4. Peru, Argentina, Japan and Madagascar
5. Madagascar
='(

[Tasselfoot]

i've had NZ twice... was missing Mada and Mada, Peru, Argentina. Also went from Greenland once and was missing Mada (the 67 day one). I think NZ, Greenland, Cuba, or Indonesia are all "potential" starting places. NZ might be the best, but I think it's worth attempting from any of those islands. Japan doesn't really go anywhere and neither does Australia. Plus, both have really large populations. As such, they don't work that well. Same goes for Indonesia, but it has a ton of air traffic.

That's the little luck part. Once you're past that, you're good to go.

And as tass just posted, you could try Greenland or Cuba as well.

Ahh.... I see.

[Tasselfoot]

the difference is that Kong doesn't really mind the blogs/guide sites... (although, really, we don't care about ffrtokens). it's just that they're fan sites, there are many of them, and it wouldn't be professional or appropriate for the site's image to have links to the fan blogs.

besides... Kongreguide isn't even the largest. just the best, IMO. COCAK is larger. not sure how often it's updated anymore though.

[Tasselfoot]

i agree. that's why i submit to Kongreguide and not COCAK. i like EP too, seems like a decent enough kid.

[banditcom]

I did not know it was a fan-site when I asked. :P

Decided to Protector 2 it up today. Only the last stage left on Normal. Haven't tried it yet. Maybe I'll do it tomorrow night.

[sarahxjane]

I was so pissed.

I was playing Pandemic 2, aiming for the only badge I need, the Impossible one.

So there I am, I have infected everything but I have no points and no lethal symptoms.

I wait and wait and wait.

I have only 20 days left.

Finally people start to die, and tragically I go past the 100 day mark.

Needless to say, I was so close yet so far.

Stupid addicting game.

[Tasselfoot]

that is not worse than mine... i GOT the imp badge, and it didn't record.

and, for Protector 2... i've got the Very Hard level and the last level left. basically, none of the 1st 20 levels are hard. then the last 2 are hard.

i've tried 3 different strategies so far for the Very Hard level, and none have worked.

[banditcom]

Sarah: Check my guide on www.kongreguide.com

And, you weren't close. That's way far off. x.x; Even 5.3b dead by day 50 can be far off. The first time I beat realistic, I did it in about 123 days. The last bit take forever if you don't do it right.


Tass: Ooo, I figured you beat it all or had just the last one left, as you have a higher score than me. That level is kind of tough.... Get your warriors jacked as well as all of the less-cost, more lives, and more experience skills in general.

Then try to balance them all out. I also put a fire mage in the middle of the lower area where only a mage could reach and made it debuff. Took me a few tries but I finally lived. I did every warrior with physical focus excluding the top middle one. That was energy, and near the end a switch to a focus on the special consecration skill before the last physical level.

[Tasselfoot]

beat Protector 2. will start working on Hardcore tomorrow, maybe.

[travman301]

Now that I upgraded to IE7 again, I can see kongreguide!!!

[Kanako Yasaka]

Got 2 more impossible badges within like 2 days of eachother. I finally decided to sit down and play SCGMD2 and got the badge in like 2 hours (shouldn't be an impossible IMO) . I got the Pandemic 2 one without a guide. :P

That's a lot of twos. o_o;

[banditcom]

So like, those stupid comment spammers annoy the hell out of me with their chainmail. Whenever I would see someone do it, I'd copy what they posted, and leave it in their shoutbox as much as I could into 1 shout.

Recently saw this in my whisper area from Matt:
Hi, so. While it’s great that you’re taking an active stance against comment spammers and whatnot, we almost just banned your account for a while because we kept seeing you spam people’s shout boxes. Just a heads up, since we didn’t know what you were doing :P It would probably be best to not do that, because we typically don’t want spamming anywhere on the site, including spammer’s profiles.
matt@kongregate.com

xD Guess I should stop.

[Tasselfoot]

haha. Matt is so serious. I've talked to him a few times. Need his ass to fix my Madagascar Imp badge that didn't record.

[Coolboyrulez0]

Pandemic Imp is my first Imp badge, it was easy IMO.
Well, this game confuses me since I got every badge (easy, medium, impossible) besides Hard... I just can't seem to get the hard badge ;_;
