Tomorow's Update (and Contest!): The Unifinished Mission of Episode 1
|
|||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Before we wrapped up Episode 1 we made the decision to cut a mission because it wasn’t quite ready for primetime, even though Jalapeno and I were both big fans of it.
While I was finishing up the Buy Stuff! section this week, Jalapeno and I brainstormed a new character for the mission, and then he wrote it up. We then revisited the part that was almost ready and spent a bunch of time improving it. We’re going to launch it tomorrow morning at 11AM EST (I’ll actually start the maintenance slightly before.) The new mission is not combat related and involves a unique interface that we haven’t deployed so far. It’s also pretty short (I think most people will finish it in about 20 minutes, but some may take longer, others shorter.) Having said that, I’m very happy with the final product. I think the conversation Jalapeno came up with is especially good, and I hope you guys will too. The mission will be given to all characters who have deployed 3 XSS attacks, as that’s where it fits into Episode 1. Also, in order to celebrate our first real content update to Forumwarz, I’m going to give away some Brownie Points! The Contest The first prize will be 3 brownie points to the first person who successfully finishes the mission. This is more or less a race based on who is around so early on a Sunday morning. Again the new mission should be live at 11AM EST. Unless there are complications I’ll flip over from maintenance exactly at 11AM. The second (more challenging) prize is 5 brownie points to the first person who gets the E-Peen™ related to the mission. This is more complicated as it will involve a lot of experimentation and playing around. I’ll give a hint after 24 hours if nobody is able to figure it out by then themselves. Log in to see images!

Can the E-peen be obtained after you’ve finished the mission for the first time, or do you have to choose between going for the 3 brownie points or the 5 brownie points? |

Good question: the E-Peen™ is available any time after you have accepted the mission (even if you have finished it you can go back and try to obtain it.)
So you could conceivably win both contests. Evil Trout edited this message on 11/17/2007 7:57PM |

Oh man, that was a fantastic mission!
I have to admit, I was expecting another forum to pwn, not a scat & **** themed text based adventure! How will we know if we were the first to complete the mission? |

And we have a winner!
Cicadalek finished the mission at 11:09:42, so just about 9 minutes after the site went live! Enjoy your brownie points. The E-Peen™ is for getting a perfect score in the game. It remains unclaimed, so those 5 points are still up for grabs. |

But…but I never win anything!
Well, except for that time I won a poetry competition with a haiku about goatse, but that’s hardly something you can put on a CV… |

By the way guys, Jalapeno thinks it’s impossible to get a full score due to the obtuse nature of a couple of the points.
Prove him wrong! Figure it out without my hint tomorrow! |

I’m thinking there might be a few different ways of dealing with R. Kelly too. |

already figured out two ways, did both before talking to my dude, probably not to my benefit.
e: would actually listening to “trapped in the closet” help at all? Cubear edited this message on 11/18/2007 11:31AM |

Heh, the funny thing is working together might make it easier to get the E-Peen™, but if you do you risk having another player get it first Log in to see images! |

Yup. That yields the highest score I’ve found thus far. |
