Gamerscore Challenge

docdolittle

Well there hasn't been one in a while so... Anybody up for another gamerscore challenge on 360 Voice? I just created a gamerscore challenge there for 1 month, we could start from around the 9th if this gets enough people in it.

I won the last one but only because I had an arse load of holidays from work at Christmas and not a lot to do because the weather was ridiculous.

Probably not worth my while joining up as I hardly ever get a chance to turn on my xbox these days

AdMMM

I would have organised this years one but just haven't had the time! I'll sign up for the laugh, even though I haven't turned on my xbox in months!

Damn it!!!!!!!!! I just played and finished lost : via domus , would have been perfect for me to get an edge here

Might I suggest using True Achievements in some way, as scores there are weighed towards achievement difficulty / number of people with it etc? Not sure how we can set up a leader board etc but might be worth looking into?, as some jive turkey like myself could have avatar stashed to play for just such an occasion ( I don't really)

NunianVonFuch

I signed up. Prob just be making up the numbers, but be a bit of craic all the same!

chrislad

I'll throw in but I doubt there will be too much change. Probably only about 1k, 2k max.

There are only a few people in it so far (3 :P ), I'd say we'll get a few more by Friday then I'll start it 12 that night or sat morning.

I just got the Sega Ultimate Collection and Alan Wake in the post this morning, might wait until this starts to play em'

shoveltooth

djkeogh

i might throw my hat in the ring. Not sure how much time I'm gonna get to play this month but a bit of friendly competition is always fun.

dor83

Joined up too, took forever because I forgot my password for the site and it wouldn't send me a reset but I finally figured it out.

corcaigh07

time to buy some games methinks! I like these challenges. it pushes you to play any backlogged games and thats a good thing.

shoveltooth

Xbox got rrod so I'm out

EDIT: Works now so Back in

Schorpio

I'll join if that's okay. I think I won't go far now that I've just started Dragon Age...

beardo81

Is this a 30 day challenge? Thats a bloody marathon!! Im in though....

calex71

I've already cleared all of the easy cheevo's from my back log over the last 2 weeks between trying for 60k and 60% completion, won;t say what the increase was over the 2-3 weeks but it would have made a nice start for the challenge

docdolittle

Seems we're stuck at 18 people Do you guys want me to start this tomorrow or just keep with Friday Midnight?

calex71

go go go , I am holding off on playing Monkey Island 2 till it starts

Schorpio

Hold off - I need a new game!

I hear Shrek is good for a lot of easy points.......:D

corcaigh07

docdolittle

I'll start it tomorrow at 6 PM then if nobody has any objections (I'm unemployed, that time makes no difference to me, it's just for people getting off work and stuff :P)

beardo81

Aye, start her up there horse!!

djkeogh

start it up whenever. if it's 30 days then an hour here and there aint gonna make much of a difference.

docdolittle

Fair enough, I'll give people one last chance to join. After I make/finish my lunch, I'll start this thing up (Bout' half an hour)

docdolittle

I didn't think it would be 3k plus points already, don't think I'm going to win either unless I use stupid easy games like avatar :pac:

i could sell you Avatar

chrislad

Tut tut for Avatar. Wasn't that banned from the last challenge?

calex71

I see someone has played lost too you dirty sneaks :rolleyes:

My lead is looking shakey with corcaigh closing fast thanks to 1000 on 3 minutes of avatar, tut tut too soon too soon, some of us may still have that particular ace to play yet

chrislad

Ah Lost isn't too bad. It's an easy 1000 but not a 5 minute job.

Would you believe I played just before I entered the challenge, curse my rotten luck

Moiph

I got 1000 in X-Men Origins: Wolverine about a week before the challenge as well. Gutted.

chrislad

And that is that. Took me right to the wire, dor83!

dor83

You were always going to win it because I would have felt like I cheated if I'd won it, playing Avatar should really take 1000 points off me. With a gamerscore as high as yours it can't be easy to find games to play either so you deserved it, well done.

chrislad

Doesn't matter what games you play. Avatar isn't cheating. It's a valid game. Not your fault it's easy to 1k. Cheating is using game saves etc.
