    Guest15937's Flash Gaming Challenge

    Flash gaming competitions used to be pretty awesome on this site with the likes of Rubix's Omnipwn tournaments and Rushy's carnivals, but there have been few to none lately. Thus, I have decided to open the Flash Gaming Challenge!

    Format:
    There are 7 "tiers" of achievements from games, ranging from easy to nearly impossible. Each achievement will be worth a set amount of points at the start. Once someone completes an achievement, that point amount will degrade by 10% (ex. someone completing a 100-point achievement makes it a 90-point achievement for following players, then 81-point after another completion, etc.) (And yes, this was adapted from Rubix's Omnipwn.) Once a player gains enough points, they will unlock the next tier, which will contain harder achievements worth more points. Achievements will have minimum point values to prevent locking players out of the next tier. You will not know what the achievements of a Tier is until you unlock it.

    This means that speed is key--if you complete five Tier One achievements before anyone else, you will gain access to Tier Two, but if you wait until every Tier One achievement is at its minimum point value, you must complete ALL Tier One achievements in order to gain access to Tier Two.

    Rules:
    1. Because Tiers are kept in the dark of players who have not unlocked them, ALL ACHIEVEMENTS MUST BE SUBMITTED IN PM. If a Tier Two or above screenshot is submitted in the thread, it will not be accepted and the submitting player will instantly get a permanent score of ZERO on that achievement!
    2. There are no signups. You join by submitting a completed achievement.
    3. All achievements must be submitted in the form of a screenshot.
    4. If ANYONE is found to be cheating (i.e. asking for upper tiers from higher-scored players) they will be disqualified from earning ANY prizes!
    5. You MAY complete lower-ranked achievements when on a higher-ranked tier (i.e. Tier One achievements may be completed by a player who has unlocked Tier Two). Completing achievements from lower-ranked tiers WILL still earn you points.
    6. Submitting a Kongregate badge or an ArmorGames quest you unlocked three years ago is NOT a valid screenshot. If you have completed the achievement in the past, you must do so again.

    The Challenge will not end until someone has completed Tier Seven. It will also NOT end immediately after the first player completes Tier Seven.

    Prizes:
    Prizes are as follows:
    100,000 credits for 1st place overall
    50,000 credits for 2nd place overall
    35,000 credits for 3rd place overall
    25,000 credits for 4th place overall
    20,000 credits for 5th place overall
    1,000 credits for the first 6 players to complete Tier One
    2,000 credits for the first 5 players to complete Tier Two
    3,000 credits for the first 4 players to complete Tier Three
    4,000 credits for the first 3 players to complete Tier Four
    5,000 credits for the first 2 players to complete Tier Five
    10,000 credits for the first player to complete Tier Six
    10,000 credits for the first player to complete Tier Seven

    Current credit pot: 300,000 credits

    I will be accepting donations. All donations should be sent to this account, Guest15937.

    Current donations:
    Guest15937: 300,000

    Overall prizes will be distributed at the end of the challenge. Tier completion prizes will be distributed when all players that can win a prize for a tier have completed that tier (i.e. when 6 players complete Tier One.)

    So, without further ado...

      I don't think I'm going to participate because I don't like time-based challenges like this and I want to spend my time on other things, but I have a question: for things like collecting a certain number of medals or reaching a certain level, what kind of proof are you looking for? I could just submit a screenshot of my existing save with a current timestamp, and someone else could delete their save, get the requirement, and submit it, and the screenshots would look the same.

          Eh, might as well, since I've played all these games before anyway :P. And I <3 flash games.

          Edit: for a game like Pixel Purge, having all the upgrades already gives me a bit of an advantage, would you want me to clear the save in that case too?

          Trigger Knight doesn't show your day at the end. I can replay if you want, but maybe my score is high enough to prove I was over the requirement.

          Edit: I can has remember rules

          Will do some more later I guess once you reply to questions. Probably won't feel like doing ones that require clearing saves if they don't have more than one save slot though, too lazy to back up save etc. etc.

            Re: Guest15937's Flash Gaming Challenge

            This sounds sweet. I'm gonna check a couple of these games out and submitting some scores.

            Question: What is the "minimum value" of these achievements? 10? This isn't specified.
            On an unrelated note, I've already completed four of these, a few more are probably on their way.

              Re: Guest15937's Flash Gaming Challenge

              The minimum value of each (Tier One) achievement is 50.

              Updated. I will be updating this as often as I can because of the speed-based nature of this challenge.

              Viisbyxa is the first player to reach Tier Two! To those of you who sent me five completed challenges, but are not Tier Two, just one more to go!

              As far as save games go, deleting save game files is not necessary. You may do stuff like re-do the 5th level of Kingdom Rush. I just didn't want players submitting a load of achievements without even playing any of the games.

                            Might as well start practicing Streamline now :P

                            Guest, what are your guidelines for how much we should play a game to get an achievement? A light example is the third game in Tier Two, where I can start the game well past the requirement -- I think I'll start at the beginning to make it fair, but others might not. A more important example is the first game -- how much of that do you want me to re-earn, and how do you want me to prove I did so? (Posting here without specifics so others can see the answers to the questions.) I mean, my main concern is that without deleting save files, anyone who has already played these games (e.g. me) has a large advantage over anyone who hasn't (even not considering prior experience with the game).

                              All the save file stuff is evened out in the later tiers. After Tier Four there are NO games where prior play should have much of a benefit, and only a couple in Four. So just play as if you were re-earning a badge on Kongregate that you earned before the badge existed. (I just don't wan't people submitting old badges as achievements.)
