I’ve been trying to look for a way to play Domination (and by play, I mean actually get medals), but also finish up Episode 3, and maybe get some job points along the way (I’m about 700 away from the last peen >.< )
So what I’ve been doing is taking three jobs, lowest level forums with 5 points, and then pwning one of the storyline forum. With careful timing and strategy, I can get at least 11 lemon scoops, 8 vanilla, as well as the pistachio scoops. I thought this information might be helpful to players who haven’t started ep3 for fear of losing out on scoops, or anyone in the middle of ep3 and just grinding on other forums.
General adivce:
- Choose which forums you are going to pwn before you start. This is especially important for Permanoobs whose limited attacks can prove fatal in forums which are immune to Incompetence. With the advent of sensitivities and special attacks from forums, it’s important to know what forums you can pwn easily, and which ones will just kick your bum. I would advise choosing forums that do not have Packet Loss, Lag Spike, Line Noise, or mod, unless you can 1 or 2 hit them, and are sensitive to at least one kind of attack that you own. I always have open when pwning. It should also be noted that sub-forums can have different abilities and sensitivities than the actual forum as well. Make sure to check that as well.
- Oraganize your toolbar beforehand. This might seem like a promotion for Forumwarz Orange™, but it’s actually very important. First of all, if you’ve just re-speced or received a new ability, it is important that your toolbar only has your most needed abilities/items. As I said earlier, pwning forums requires a lot more skill than it used to, so you should make sure you have the right kind of attacks ready. Even on community forums, knowing their sensitivities beforehand can be crucial. Again, make sure to utilize .
- Check that you have the right consumables, and enough of them. If an official forum has any of the lag abilities (pl, ln, ls), make sure you have plenty of tunnel scripts; not only do you need them, but they’re a great way to keep power spikes from destroying expensive ego/mana items. I’d suggest about 300 or so, seeing as they’re pretty damn cheap. Also, double check your equips, too. Make sure the right ones are on and that none of them are broken.
- Watch your ego. While you might not get seriously injured in a level 35 forum, a level 50 forum actually necessitates the use of ego-boosting items. If you’re bad at multi-tasking, just equip the Fairy in a Bottle special item, as a reminder for when you need to start popping those pills.
- FBO and XSS codes waste time. Unless you’re not too concerned about getting vanilla scoops or maximum lemon scoops, don’t bother with the FBO and XSS codes. Since episode 3 came out, more people have actually been playing, so dominating four forums at once is all about the speed.
Now, another obstacle you will find while playing official forums are that some of them can destory your streak, and/or prevent you from getting vanilla scoops. Here are the aformentioned forums you should avoid or otherwise be prepared for (NOTE: I will put spoiler tags on the storyline, but that’s it.):
- The Great Beyond BBS You can pwn this forum after receiving a mission from Nordstrom’s dad, but it is unpwnable within the storyline, because it is too strong, plus RWOX CVDK OAAX/Nordstrom’s dad dies. If you do manage to pwn this forum, an Emo Kid may be capable of this, you will not get any vanilla scoops, as the link is erased from your bookmarks immediately after you leave it.
- DinkDonkDoink.org SteamBoards After you’ve failed in the previous forum, a clbum-based NPC gives you a mission to pwn this forum. This forum you should have no problem with, even when you have to face Snorri, a gollum version of Dr. O, in a boss thread, because he’s hella easy to beat. Unfortunately, this link also disappears from your bookmarks after pwning it, so no vanilla scoops.
- -=FLAMING BLACK OPS HQ=- This forum is availible after pwning Lamebait, and obviously where you face off against Nordstrom for the final battle. I just pwned this forum withzrelative ease, even at the boss thread. But it is not considered “pwned,” and will reset your streak, as well as prevent you from getting vanilla scoops (another one where the link is removed). This is not necessarily a bug, as one is to bumume the FBO has survived your attack, seeing as they will Tubmail you a new ability, DDoS.
I haven’t actually beaten ep 3 yet, so I have yet to see what happens after I try to beat Sentrillion Clbumified Codebase (BETA). If anybody has any tips or useful information to add, I’d be happy to add on.

Well I’m glad you guys like making donations. I didn’t know it was a donation.
I was under the impression that we were to believe we were being offered something of corresponding monetary value in exchange for money. Of course most of us know better, but the intent was for us to believe that’s what we were getting. Log in to see images!
I agree with this.
If you want to make a donation, you can make a donation, and not get anything in exchange for it. But if CZ really “appreciates” our donations, we should be getting more value for our “donations.”
It’s like the stuff you get from organizations for making contributions. Say you get a keychain for donating 5; that’s the equivalent of a few pranks, an avatar change, or an additional alt. Worthless, but kind of neat. Now for donating 36 dollars, you get a life time supply of keychains. That is even more worthless, because while you might use five or so of those keychains, the rest are just lying there. Sure, you could try and sell those unused keychains on eBay, but in the long run, the net gain is minimal. While the donation you made might make you feel good, you’re probably not going to be donating 36 dollars again anytime soon.
Now, I don’t want to claim I know a lot about economics, but I think the problem here is if CZ wants to be making money, they need to change the costs of things all together.
Disabling ads costs only 30bp; that’s $3. Not to mention, you can disable community ads as well, which just so happens to be another product that they’re trying to sell. They’re allowing users to buy out the best source of revenue for any f2p game, as well as reduce consumer incentive to buy community ads.
Furthermore, the actual gaming enhancements are cheaper than the interface enhancement. Ep3 actually does have a certain amount of replay value, but an alt that could take you quite a while to get to level 69 is cheaper than 3 months of Forumwarz Orange.
But those are just words. Let’s do a little math, shall we?
Suppose you have already bought all three episode, and played through them without paying much attention to anything that was going on. Instead of trying out forumbuildr or incit, you decide you want to carefully replay the whole game as quickly as possible, and with an ending with all three different alignments (I do know there are more than three endings, but those are three that the average gamer would bumume exist). To do this, you need at least three alts, each of which should have the extra forum visits and the insta-kill enhancements.
Create a New Character = 45 BP
Shoot Your Wad (69 visits) = 40 BP
GameDolphin (destroys any thread instantly) = 35 BP
Added up, that’s 120 BP per character, and for all three characters, that’s 360BP
Obviously, you’re not going to be able to beat the game in a day, simply because much of the game requires a rollover before you can continue with the plot. At most, this gives you a month of enjoyment.
tl;dr: An eternity of Forumwarz Orange is the same price as getting instant gratification from the game itself.

Well…I do have 10x Moldy Growth now
Could have sworn all my meds were recent purchases, though
Expired Medication turns into Moldy Growth after a week or so.

The abacus is better, but when you compare them to a Master Ball, well, I’ve yet to see something I’d want equipped more than the Master Ball.
I saw the 4D Rubik’s Cube on Kyoubai a week ago. But I guess that would most be for people desperate for ego, or something better than 1000 Facebook Friends.
There are still several Special Items from itembuildr whose stats aren’t listed on the wiki. One of them has got to be something better than Master Ball….that I will not be able to afford….
