VGS Christmas Contest 2022 [ENDED]

Recommended Posts

Uh nevermind I guess. I was going to go to bed in frustration, but something pushed me to another round, and I had a good flow going. There's a pattern that forms with a single coin block awkwardly placed under a high ceiling of blocks, all hanging over a pit, and I don't know how to get past it. It killed me here and that's sad because I still had good momentum. Maybe next time. But for now, new score:

132

I'm coming for 200 next!

Ho ho!
The Grinch is NOT done, he is not done quite yet
He is just getting started and has much further to get
And with a hop and a jump and a quickness of step
The Grinch will beat everyone including you I just bet!

Ooh! more language that is foul
More insults that are crude
Well my friend, this your hour 
To meet with the crudest and rudest of rude dudes     (That's me 😉

Your score may be the best
The best of the best
I confess

But Grinch Night is high cinema!
Of the utmost pinnacle!
Even if you were intending
To be so transparently cynical

So I am awash in your lame insults,
Mister AVGN Gamer
But your handle is much worse
And oh so much lamer!

I'm honored to have been decimated by The Grinch. 

You may have thrown me in a mire, but your tacky attire leaves more to desire. 

Paired with your stinky green teeth and caved in head, I could cook green eggs and ham on your ginormous green forehead. 

I also forgot, south of your equator, where are your pants? Did you give them to some stranger?

Grinch Night is kinda awesome. I will not lie, it makes me grin from eye to eye.

I think we can halt, we've exhausted our insults. But stop and remember...

to kneel to AVGN Gamer.

While I'm not above a smattering of flattery
And my personal aroma is exquisitely STINKY
YOUR entire wealth of talent would fit
In my teeny weeny gnarly old pinky

And The Grinch bend the knee?
Ha!
Is that what I heard?
I will never no not
No, NEVER
Will I kneel
To a NERD

So close to triple digits on my first attempt tonight.  

Edit.  Finally triple digits.  

 

There is a long jump that lands you on a small ledge right before a pipe with a Goomba that immediately falls off the pipe.  I've seen it several times and I've never been able to avoid this Goomba.

Cowabunga? Cowa-fuckin-piece-of-@The Grinch-shit. You think you're funny? I've heard better from Bugs Fuckin Bunny. 

You don't seem to understand, this is my final stand. 

As you, Mr. Grinch, don't seem to see, I am wearing shorts; from the top of my legs to my little skinny knees.

It's quite adorable, you think you've won. I'm wearing shorts you can eat them when I'm done having fun. 

I, the AVGN Gamer, have had it up to here; you leave no fear, it's quite clear. 

Kneel down, you're just a clown.

I am not sure what mapper this is but it's likely 30 or 111.  Try these on for size and throw them in the POWERPAK folder on the root of your CF card.

If you need additional (power) mappers, check this thread out.

 

Left my laptop at work the last couple days, so I finally got to try this tonight. I am a tech moron. I am sure whatever is going wrong is my complete lack of an understanding of how any of this works. I don't know most of the terms, like mappers. I downloaded this zip from the first link and copied that file into the folder labeled POWERPAK. No go. Do I need to take certain files from that folder and put them in separately? Feel free to make fun.

Yes you have to extract the mapper file from the zip file and place it in the POWERPAK folder.  The file inside the zip should be called map30.map.

Does the powerpak method work for everdrive as well/?

 

alas my hands and mind are betraying me. Ever since my night where I was pulling off 100+runs every time, I can't even get close to half of my score. I don't know what's wrong with me. It's left me absolutely downtrodden though. I am probably hopeless to move anywhere further on this contest 😞

I'm also getting really angry at this game. There are far too many times now that a death occurred in ways that were out of my control. There's the blind jump onto a piranha plant with nowhere safe to land, there's the same jump but with a goomba that falls on top of you in a space too small to avoid it, and there's the goomba right after a flag pole which you can't see unless you run up to the flagpole and wait. On top of that, I've gotten stuck on invisible objects that freeze me in place (effectively a softlock), been minus world slid through pipes and into a pit on the other side, and had bad collisions where a turtle hits my feet and causes damage for no reason. Between my rapid drop in skill and my growing list of stupid deaths, I am really starting to hate this game. I'm considering just giving up, the experience is starting to not be fun anymore.

I still love you Mr. Grinch

Your mind games won't work
The Grinch works alone
And I'll work tirelessly
Until all you sages are pwned!
