Better Than You: Rink Runner

This week's Better Than You features Brucey B. Below is his challenge statement.

"I'm not just an excellent Cheat! player, you know. I'm quite an accomplished ice skater as well. It just comes natural to Bruces. I dare you to outperform me! What? No I'm not wearing my lucky coin... it's just... a gold medallion, that's all."

To beat him you must get 195 points in Rink Runner. I used to be good at this game, but now that I only have a laptop I stink because clicking games are just too hard without a real mouse.

Prize is Training School Myths for the 500 winners. Additionally, you get a Gold Trophy and 20,000 Neopoints if you are the first 10, Silver Trophy and 10,000 Neopoints if you are between the 11th and 50th, and a Bronze Trophy and 3,000 Neopoints if you are between 51st and 500th.

Good Luck to all and remember to comment and share your tips on this game to help other readers out.

Tonight's Double Key Promotion for Key Quest Update 3

Yeah, I finally finished the game. It was just a two key game, so the prize was not that great from the 2 Lead keys I got for winning, but hopefully it is good enough to get whatever the special prize is. Below is the screenshots from winning and stuff. It is too frustratingly slow to try to play another game. Now if they would just get this week's Better Than You actually live.

Tonight's Double Key Promotion for Key Quest Update 2

I am now in a game, but it is very slow going. The whole first move went so slow my opponent did not even move perhaps due to lag and the lag made me skip a turn as well because the die took forever to roll. This is annoying, but hopefully worth the virtual prize I should get.

Tonight's Double Key Promotion for Key Quest

I have been trying to get in to play and get the special virtual prize, but it is so damn slow. The first time I got in, but then nothing would happen when I clicked to join games. Now it is just trying to connect on my refresh. Anyone get in yet and get the virtual prize awarded, too?

Reminder: Double Key Quest Promotion Tonight at 5pm NST

Tonight at 5pm NST (i.e. Pacific time, 6pm Mountain Time, 7pm Central Time, 8pm Eastern Time) Neopets is having a special Double Key Promotion in the Key Quest party style board game. This event only lasts for an hour and they are doing it as a load test for the game. If you easily get annoyed by lag, then you probably want to avoid Key Quest during that time, as I find it gets kind of laggy on a regular day even with my fast Internet connection. If you have patience, though, it might be worth trying to get some extra keys, as the prizes you get using the keys tend to be pretty good. I know I am going to try to get on for this special event tonight. Also, it sounds like just for playing during the hour you will get a free rare virtual item. My guess is that it is a special token for playing Key Quest with.

New Game: Shenkuu Tangram

Today I realized that there is a new game called Shenkuu Tangram. I used to play Tanagram the game when I was younger and I also have played a similar computer game before. Both are the kind of games I love, so I had high expectations of it when I saw the name of the new Neopets game. Overall this game is okay, but the controls make it too hard to naturally play it like I am used to. The main thing is that it seems you can only use one piece at a time and not get to the next one until you find the right spot for the current piece. Also, hint does not seem to actually do anything.
