Gaia Gensouki | 1,066 Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Btw. can you clear several criteria with a single submission? E.g. playing a game from before 1995 on a game boy and submitting it to the beat X threads? Also, what is your favorite movie, @Gloves? Or is it part of the challenge to find out? Kinda like getting into the fight club, when no one is allowed to talk about the fight club? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda like getting into the fight club, when no one is allowed to talk about the fight club? I actually almost had a rule that if you had to ask me my favorite movie you'd be disqualified from that tile! Give it a little time, I'm sure you'll figure it out. I won't tell you what it is, suffice to say that I've basically gushed all over the movie pretty consistently here on VGS. Options are: 1) Look through my post history, you're sure to find the movie in question. 2) Ask someone who's not me. I'm sure someone will pop in and be like "It's this!" and then everyone will know, and that's cool. Me though, I'm gonna keep an air of mystery about me! FUFUFUFUFUUUU! As for your first question, I'm afraid you must do 1 thing per tile. When submitting you need to say the name of the tile, and provide the proof. You may not do the same thing for multiple tiles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeldaFreak | 3,600 Events Team · Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 So what're the rules with the tiles that require you to beat games? Is it like NES Weekly rules where you have to take a picture of your whole screen or monitor with a little pamphlet of your name somewhere in view, or is it more so VGS Survivor rules, wherein if you're playing on an emulator, just taking a screenshot of your screen will suffice?

I thought it said PS3 earlier, but now it says PSN... so it can be a PS4 plat? Don't worry, I already have My Name is Mayo, lol. I was going to try for Sound Shapes on PS3, but if PS4 counts I will probably do Wolf Among Us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do 2 or more people just need to say "We played X game for X amount of time," do we need to take a picture of the game being played, do we need to record the entire play session, etc? Homebreviewer Write a review blog for a Homebrew game Not retroactive Does this need to be in the actual Blogs section of the site? I assume yes, but just making sure. Merch Buy an official VGS shirt Retroactive: if you already have one, post a photo of you wearing it! (or just of the shirt and your username on paper if you're uncomfortable sharing what you look like!) Would it still count if you were given the shirt as a gift? I do have one, but I didn't actually get it myself, Jeevan got one for me as a gift. Seriesous about collecting Share a photo of your completed collection of a series of games Series must have at least 3 games in it, for example, all Silent Hill games Spinoffs are not required, only mainline games Not retroactive This doesn't apply to me anyway since I have a very small collection, but do the games in the series have to be physical, or are digital games allowed for this submission? So, I had a few questions about some of the tasks we're required to complete. You can see my questions in bold & underlined below whichever tasks I'm asking about in the quote above. Sorry I'm unclear on so many things, I just want to make sure I'm understanding everything correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNESNESCUBE64 | 531 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 I really like the idea of this, unfortunately I'm not gonna have much time to participate this week, but this is a really cool idea! So I'm gonna have to opt out of this one. I think they Hy, brid one is the best. If you post some good ones, he might host it on his site! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I'm unclear on so many things, I just want to make sure I'm understanding everything correctly. No worries, thanks for the questions! Game Night: I'll make a new requirement - at least one of you needs to take a photo of the screen with some manner of proof that at least 2 people got together to play a game. This could be, for instance, the pre-game lobby on Mario Kart. The rest of the requirement (1+ hour) is on the honor system much like a lot in the contests we run. We assume for instance that you're not using save states to beat games; this is all intended to be a fun game, don't cheat yourself out of having fun for a couple pixels under your avatar! Homebreviewer: Yeah, make it in the Blogs section please. Merch: If someone has been kind enough to buy you a shirt, consider yourself the lucky owner also of another free space. Buy that man a coffee sometime. Seriesous about collectin: Yes, you must own the games physically. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
