Kongregate Brag Board

[MrRubix]

2063 -- I am so sick of this push-pull bull****. I win one, then I lose one. I win one, then I lose one. I just keep bouncing back and forth across the same ****ing barriers because all I end up fighting are ****ing Kongai nerds who've been playing this for months. I'm so pissed off. Just give me the goddamn badge already.

Someone please explain to me why this is not an Imp badge.

[Tasselfoot]

because greg hates you.


ps - new jmtb02 game out on armorgames.com... it's silly, yet still fun. it mocks all the games with the 100+ in-game awards. game is called Achievement Unlocked.

Video of me beating it in the minimum possible time (aka... there is a time achievement at 300 seconds. I finished all other achievements at 267 and waited for 33 seconds)

I'll play it tomorrow -- must study. One more final left, woohoo!

On Kong, we've figured out that Kongai successes go up quite a bit with multiple people chipping in (obvious amirite). Commander, Krayz, and I were in the vidchat as I was battling some guys. Even with an extraordinarily bad opening due to a hilarious last-second miscommunication (going far with Cornelius against VV as the very first move), we managed to gain the upper hand.

So, I propose that for those that want this badge, we should all help each other out in this way so we maximize the "brainpower allocation per play," so to speak. It's good to have "error-checking."


Decided to go ahead and play that game, Tass. Haha, it's pretty funny :P

I ****ing hate this game!!! Getting past 2300 is ****ing impossible. I keep encountering decks with cards I just can't battle against effectively (SO many Cains and Onimarus), and now it keeps pairing me up with these low-level guys who just EAT my ****ing rank points.


I may just need a better deck. Technically, Yoshiro and Anex are both good finishers, meaning I have to basically hope that my Cornelius has someone he can fight against well. Otherwise, I'm basically fighting a downhill battle. I need to make my deck a bit more balanced, I think.

I was there in the chatroom it was odd. I didn't even know what game you were talking about.

[jonathanasdf]

yes. after the 2200 or 2300 line its extremely hard. I guess you just have to be lucky and face like 4 noobs in a row to get to 2700... otherwise its impossible.

Today is the final day! Then we can start on our awesomest game!

[jonathanasdf]

Done. 882 seconds on Red (if anyone wants to know the strategy pm or whisper me), 267 seconds particles (never EVER EVER playing that game again), 26090 Fold (will improve later)

How about you just tell us real quickly to help yourself and others?

[jugglinguy]

Nice tass XD. Rubix, if you make any deck changes make sure you tell me them =P

[jonathanasdf]

[jonathanasdf]

tass sorry but I voted according to what I would have voted for the level. I'm not going to help anyone cheat in contests. IMO they aren't very well done...

[Tasselfoot]

Oh wow. Can you believe some people in the kongregate forums...

My understanding is that the rankings are set up so that an average player will plateau around Skill Rank 35. To plateau before Rank 20, you would have to really, really suck. (I’m guessing that the people describing the badge as hard just haven’t found an adequate strategy yet.)
That said, while it doesn’t require much skill, the “Reach Skill Level 20” badge is fairly long. It requires something like 30 wins, plus 1 more win for every 2 losses. We’re talking maybe five or six hours of gameplay, not counting however long it takes you to figure out what all the buttons do.
I’d be in favor of adding a second hard badge for winning 100 ranked matches or something along those lines. (Something for which it isn’t possible to lose progress, since that’s what makes the “Playing to Win” badge discouraging for some people.) The two hard badges combined would be a split impossible comparable in difficulty to the GemCraft split impossible.

I want to KILL him. Seriously.

27000 is possible -- I messed up in a few spots. Otherwise it's pretty damn near optimal.
