If anyone has any suggestions for Task 6, I'd be very grateful...I'm stumped on this one! Reply #241. Oct 29 23, 12:55 PM |

the only advice I can give is to keep exploring and playing across the site = this is because the award of the Halloween prestige points is totally random. I currently only have 4 out of the 5 after 2 days - so you just need to keep trying - good luck Reply #242. Oct 29 23, 1:28 PM |

Anyone who struggles with chapter 6: You have a flat chance of getting one of these booms every time you do something where you could get exploration prestige. But only once per source. So if you want to force your way in: Look for things that give exploration and allow you a lot of tries per day. There's one that has 15, another that has 12 (both of which can be done without much waiting for resets) and one that's even effectively unlimited if you can just avoid wrong answers. That's three of the five taken care of. For the rest... your choice. Best to just keep poking everything that hasn't dropped yet. (And yes, extras are free prestige, so have fun playing arbitrary stuff. You never know...) Reply #244. Oct 29 23, 1:48 PM |

I got one early on yesterday... took hours for the next one, and then nothing. Then more nothing. Then, like London buses, the last three came pretty much all at once. Keep playing, then play again, play things you don't play often, then play again... Reply #245. Oct 29 23, 1:48 PM |

Thanks to all the tricky tricksters who had a hand in putting this together. A few new gray hairs but mostly fun! Wes, can you have a word with your bud, Evi, and ask him to check the message board over in the Owl's Roost...have left a query for him over there but perhaps he can't get through the door with that massively swelled head of his... ;-) Reply #247.

There was a door? Oh, that tiny little amulet around my neck was supposed to be a door... Reply #248. Oct 29 23, 4:08 PM |

Chapter 2: Sweet Victory This is the last one I can't figure out "Bring me three victories. One on one" Duel related? Reply #250. Oct 29 23, 4:21 PM |

There are only so many things that make you go one on one. One must be it. Reply #251. Oct 29 23, 4:27 PM |

Evi, your little badge rank thingy lying on its side... looks like a crab claw trying to grab a jellyfish. Just saying. Reply #252. Oct 29 23, 4:42 PM |

Absolutely wonderful challenge this year. Loved it. Couldn't wait to get home from work every day to play some more. Thank you for putting this together and I can't wait to see what comes next year. Reply #253. Oct 29 23, 5:58 PM |

How long will we have to complete the challenge? I usually don't have time for it and am not concerned but this year I was on holiday and had time to work on the first chapters as they came out but it seems unlikely I will have time to complete chapter 7 until maybe the weekend. Will it last that long? Reply #255. Oct 30 23, 2:18 AM |

The weekend might be pushing it - you do have a few more days however (we run at least 7 days, usually 8 or 9). There's a second way to solve part 7 (using the 7, not the 200), over several days, that won't require intense play. And don't forget if you want to do the 200, you could pick the easiest of the easy - probably done in 30 minutes or less :) Reply #256. Oct 30 23, 3:05 AM |

I’m thinking we will probably keep this open a few extra days longer than usual because some of the tasks are a little more involved than previous years (although there are options). I’ll probably remove the link from the homepage after 10 days total but keep it running in the background for a couple more for those in-progress. No one should be stressing out because of a Halloween challenge. No rush. Reply #257. Oct 30 23, 3:16 AM |

Thank you Terry. Thanks Wesley, I’m working on what I think is the 7 but if I’m wrong about it my fall back was the 200, and even though I know it’s 30-60 mins solid play.. if that’s all I have time for then I’d rather spend it trying to make sure I play the team games. Overall, I’ll never lose sleep over whether I do or do not complete a FT challenge but it sure would’ve nice to finish it this year :-) Reply #258. Oct 30 23, 3:26 AM |

Children are not Very Easy. I have 4, but wouldn't want 200! Reply #259. Oct 30 23, 3:45 AM |

I’m wondering why I don’t have Step 7 on the badge - all 7 steps are completed and I see Misson Accomplished and the final dialogue. Am I missing something else or is it updated at the end of the day? Reply #260. Oct 30 23, 5:14 AM |
