Challenge update - 5/24/2008
And they are off! Place your bets! In a world where competition reigns supreme, only one person can call themselves... champion. That will be the victor of Fshguy's Old Spice Experience Challenge... Which titles are people going to use first? The hard ones with big points? The easy ones with small points? Experience is going to pay off for someone in the end. We'll follow this challenge closely.
congrats!!
Congrats to Big Will - I thought Fshguy had it in the bag with two hours left before the challenge was over.
Congrats to Big Will on the win!
@Fshguy - happy B-day to your son!
@Kaens - looks like you got the coveted 12th this time. I forgot how much Samurai Warriors 2 annoys me until I DL'd the extra content and decided to try to score some points on it. I made the mistake of trying to play Gracia, who doesn't even fight with a weapon! She uses a bracelet against all those Samurai--no kidding. Took me almost 4 hours to get even those 60 points--it would surprise you how long it takes to kill an enemy officer when he's in full armor and you're smacking him with your teenage wrists. Oh well.
Yeah, but I haven't won one of my challenges yet! It's going to take me forever to get to 1000 challenge points...
@Fsh - come on, you've already won four, share the love!
@New guys (Riot) - the 12th place thing started when Vengence73 declared way back in this challenge he wanted it - http://www.360voice.com/challenge/4333
It stuck and I believe it is actually harder to get than first because you have to score enough, but not too much. Also it works out great because it's about the halfway point so think of it as the losers bracket for Fsh's challenges. The top guys can go for the win, while everyone else still has something to shoot for.
i'll be honest....Fsh u had me scared playin Thrillville. I was like CRAP if he scores any higher i can't use em. Good job everyone
Oh, btw, congrats Big Will... How big of a lead does a guy need around here!?!?
Noooooooo..Roooobbbbeedd....
I guess those three hours of extra sleep bit me in the butt! I'm assuming Big Will had a few more points to give...
@Kaens...what do you mean I didn't need the win?! :)
congrats Big Will 1982
I'm missing the whole 12th place thing...
haha. I thought I screwed up and got second. but nope. I still got third thanks to that avatar bomb. 3 3rds in a row ftw.
And that is why I score 5k when I am trying to win :( Good news is it's not like Fsh needed the win & he still gets the points for 2nd place.
More importantly I believe I got the coveted 12th position. I've now done it all. *drops controller and walks off*
LOL yea, i saw i had an opening. I was actually gonna use King Kong BUT my Gamestop store is doin Inventory and i can't check out games for a while. And my local blockbuster didn't have it, NOR fusion Frenzy. so i was stuck with either avatar, jumper, bee movie or meet the robinsons...Oh yea and i demolished Iron man in 2 days with 8 achievements left on it.
the avatar BOMB, thats all you can say! In the very last couple of hours! I guess you are that fiendish. Just like your gamerpic. Oh well atleast you are going to win your FIRST challenge!
O_O that's my look of fury lol
I couldn't let that slide. I DROPPED THE AVATAR BOMB
you say O-O! When you score 1800points in the last couple hours! WOW! o_o
O_O
hey gd challange every1
not 1st but did get few points this time :)
=====
if havnt heard of gamestrata please check it out
it like myspace / facebook for games
http://www.gamestrata.com/account/new?friend=jaferris
----
be doing 1st challange with them after this one
Hey High Knight, if you see this, score some points your the only one with zero.
And in correction, it's 200 miles, not 2000. If it was that much, I wouldn't have started in the first place. The 4k driving is bad enough.
(50 miles in a real time hour, 2000 miles to go = 40 more hours of driving in a circle...)
Woo! I put points up! Let Sleeping Rockstars Die became available last night with the developers playing and coincidentally it was the same night I was going for the 20 pistol kills. 2 flying rats with one stone.
Also, not last place!
As for marathon, I'm at 86% completion, with another 2000 miles of running and 2000 miles of driving. I will be the first!
Hah, I'm not counting anything for another 26 hours at least!
well...there are a still a "lot" of pts i need to get
o_O and what might that be.... Soundsd S......C......A....R....Y :-P
O_O Fsh....u might make me do something drastic
Yeah Fsh I think that you are NOT in the running to get 12th but 1st, I think is looking REAL good!
Sorry Kaens, I'm gunning for it this time. If the challenge were ending tonight you might have it in the bag, but there's still enough time to *almost* pass 11th place, whoever that may be.
I had the strangest dream lastnight that i was at a global political summit and right in the middle of it some french politicans stood up and announced their rise to power. Apparently They had risen to the same level of power as the US. As soon as they exited the buildings some french terrorists broken in and started mowing us all down with gunfire >.>
It was a strange dream especially since it's laughable to think that I, an american would die so easily.
Are you trying to say I blew it for the 12th position????
12th place is nothing. 3rd place is the place to get. And it looks like I might get it for the 3rd challenge in a row.
I don't know about that Kaens, i've been hovering around 12th place and I think that I should end up on it. What do ya think?
NO, 12th is MINE this time my friend. I slept through the end last time and blew it. I won't make the same mistake!
If all goes well I should be back in 12th tomorrow.
I have 7 alts, I could have power lvled them, but I just couldn't be bothered.
I was even considering selling my account, since all my alts had 300 professions. maybe get a small return in the investment I put into that game lol.
so basically they went the route of fast leveling like World of Warcraft eh? I remember when it took days and days of grinding to get a bar.
They should give you an exclusive gamerpic for finishing the Liberty City Marathon.
Wow,I should at least put up 10 points or so.
EXP has gotten ultra fast in everquest. I went from 40 percent into level 65 (where I left off 5 years ago) to one sliver away from 66 in 4 hours today! i'm 2 or 3 kills from leveling up but the servers just went down ; ;
I'm in the Liberty City marathon with 83.40% completion and I'm not getting ANYTHING for that lol. But if everything goes according to plan, I will be the first to finish. Mostly because no one can be bothered to compete lol.
I actually love Sudoku, got hooked when I bought a book before a long flight, and I'm pretty hardcore about getting points. However the thought of playing the same board over 200 times because I memorized it just gives me a headache.
Of course the thought of even playing Turning Point makes me sick too, much less playing multiplayer enough to get 2500 kills (even boosting), so to each his own I guess. I used to be as sick in the head as you ;)
Once I memorized a 9x9 on easy. I could knock it out on average in 40-45 seconds. A memorized 6x6 took 11 seconds.
Nice, was the 1:20 achieve hard? That looks like it will be the toughest.
pretty easy. You can repeat the same puzzle over and over again and it will count.
How easy is that Majin? Might pick it up. :p
I am officially sudoku'd out.
To be honest I was SHOCKED my level 65 character was still active on the everquest servers my last payment for that game was back in Feb 2003 (but I had quit about 1.5 months before that for the most part) I thought for sure they woulda purged my character in all those years.
Bah, lost my number 12 spot :(.
As for MMOs I gave about 2.5 years of my life to WoW, and only finally gave it up when I got the 360 last September. But I still give my $15 to Blizzard every month like a moron because I log on every once in a while to BS with some people I could easily hit up on Messenger.
not so sure dmd...you know how we are
hmm fsh no one seems to be making too big of a push this week. i beat everyone down the first two days.
2500 ranked Deathmatch kills later....1000 in Turning Point.
Woot... finished GTA IV storyline... Tomorrow back to knocking off a few more points....
that's the down side to mmo's. you leave for a "little bit" and everything changes.
I'm afraid of getting addicted to it again though lol... The ONLY reason I quit last time is my cable modem went down for an entire full week . During that time my guild had guild fennin ro, xegony, and coirnav. So I told myself "well now's as good atime as any to 'retire'" >.>
I feel like such a noob in everquest now omg. The last time I logged out in late 02 earrrly 03 I was 'uber' one of the better equipped casters on the server. Now i'm a nobody.
I'm a level 65 and the level cap has since been raised to 70 75, and as of about 8 months ago apparently it is now level 80.
I always thought my aten ha ra loot and PoP loot would still be decent in future expansions but even my aten loot is **** compared to noob loot in new expansions >.> Plus it's depressing to see that level 75+ shamans, clerics, monks, and rangers can now solo the avatar of war, king tormax, and other mobs that used to take 60-100 people at one point
Jeez everyone puttin up points now
is anyone else having issues with writting and entry on their blog?
man I played the F out of some EQ from 2000-2003. Got it right after Kunark came out. I played on the Tribunal server.
Sunk me some major hours into. Like some of those weekends camping FFBS after the revamp in Lower Guk for 72 hours straight at a time.
yea but the thing with wow...once an expansion comes out...most people come back. I'm tryin to avoid getting back in to wow like its the plague
I just quit WoW, that was a relief.
Dont even get me started on EQ. Wow, I loved both EQ1 & EQ2 games and sunks 1000s and 1000s of ours into them. That is in no way an exaggeration either.
EQ1 - Kaens (Povar)
EQ2 - Polter (Befallen)
Hardcore quester I was.
everquest?! seriously? hmm
Seems like Jcnet is in a really bad 360 slump if he has to turn back to Everquest!!!
i was never an EQ fan, i was more of a Unreal Tournament kinda guy
I started playing everquest again for the first time since 2003 >.>
just got the easy online achivements on vampire rain easy 650 :) just took jus over hour :)
Dang, there was some gaming going on yesterday...
@Majin - I guess you believe in living to fight another day, now if I can convince everybody else of that, I could finish GTA IV main storyline this week. :)
Just beat the expert drum tour in rock band. Now that was a hard earned 50 gs right there...phew!
@Fsh - looks like you got me this week.
the good thing about Assassin's Creed is that you can play it this week and stop at a certain point in the game and play for 2-3 hours next week and unlock like 600 points.
Bah, miss a challenge just when I can crack open Dead Rising, one of the easiest games to get points in! Ahwell, next week I'll use that and Assassin's Creed to win it! Such quick and not frustrating at all points in those games! You're all on notice!
Yea it sucks. I got stuck on mission 5 so I am giving it a break. I got through the first 4 without dying. The jets mess me up. :(
Let me know how that last run through goes... At least all you have to worry about is surviving and not the secondary objectives.. I'll probalby finish it after this challenge...
Yea I am running through it on formidable now. :/
Hmmm. ColdWolf... did you get dropped because you switched tags??? We did start with 30...
You're all good Blind... Ironman is a good choice.. lots of juicy points... Well, at least until you get to those last two...
yay finally got all the normal and secret skulls in The Club :)
me?? I am playing Ironman. :(
I smell offline achievements... they smell bad... Please try to get all of your achievements online while you're in the challenges.
smell what?
Do you smell that?
Maybe, I thought about scoring some myself but I'm sick and don't even feel like turning my tv on.
@ coldwolf - dude what is this the help forum? they reply pretty quick usually.
@ fsh - the murderous apple (fsh challenge noob) is making a little push.
@ kaens - looks like it might be a bit higher score for the winner.
WTF!!!
My Elite just Red Ringed...not good....not good...damn you Bill!!!!!
Hey, Fsh how long for support to reply?
Just a quick correction, the inmates were screaming, ""Joe Francis girls gone WILD wooooooo!" (Woooo included.)
Oh thet guy who does the girls gone wild videos, he got out a while ago. He was suffering from trauma from all the inmates raking their cups on the bars all night, EVERY night screaming, "Joe Francis girls gone while wooooooo!" but he stayed in for a but until he got out on good behavior.
He has supposedly discovered that he has the New York scandal call girl on one of his prior shoots and is currently trying to proposition her into releasing the rights to distribute.
In other gaming news, I have completed 6/10 marathon events, and no gamerscore is expected for the next week or so lol.
Huh oh, near the covenanted 12th with out even knowing...
Alright thanks:)
ColdWolf... send it to support@360voice.com... I can't do anything for you....
@Frost... There's plenty more... nothing as good as MLB 2k6, I had been saving it for a special ocassion...
Very nice start there Fsh, but one question? Are you going to be able to keep this up?? The first 1K points was easy with MLB 2K6......Besides Iron Man, whats next?!?!?!?! (Or Don't you want to spoil the secret?) ^_^
Hey, Fsh did you get my FR? Its FragmasterWolf. Also can you delete this account so i can use my e-mail for my new gamertag? Thanks
Yeah Majin... not everybody can get the #2 spot... :)
Fsh might just be too beastly for me.
Finally made Officer on R6V2!
(Seemed like I had those stripes forever)
Man the day i get a new account the next i find i am in the 9th spot:(
I dunno but after I wrote that message i saw the commercials shoved down my throat 7 more times in over the course of 2 hours.
I dont know what happened to it but i'm hoping whatever it was somehow involved him dying a horrible death >.>
Didn't the guy get arrested? Because some of the girls were under 18.
That is what I heard. :/
I'm a night owl (prolly not a secret) so I watch a lot of TV at around the 1 AM, 2 am, 3 am or 4 am time slots. Anyway it's really starting to **** me off that stupid girls gone wild commercials come on like 4 times an hour after 1 am and they are always like 90 second long commercials.. wtf.
I'm about 100 girls gone wild commercials away from tracking down its creator and executing him on oprah.
Is anyone here an expert on IGN collection pages? I've had an IGN collection page up since about 2003 that I havent updated since 2006. I logged into the correct account but instead of letting me edit my OLD page it gave me a new one. now it says my collection page is "jcnet" yet I can still visit my jcnet1 page. How can I get it to let me edit my old collection? I dont wanna have to manually re-add in a bunch of old games that would take DAYS ><
Fsh I will see your cheap game with Fifa Street 3.
yeah I'm a new face but I'm running the Liberty City Marathon so don't expect much from me haha. I'm up to 25 carjacks every 2 minutes so I'll finally have 2400 jacks today for sure. I just need to figure out how to get credit for activities and stunts.
And the worst part I'm doing this not knowing if someone already won since the Rockstar servers lag so bad. :(
Hey, just so you know if i get any points today the will say aquried because my brother is on my 360 and i am on my sister's xbox360 don't want it to get updated because its an old system and lots of people had to send there 360's back after last April feburary's(Or So) server update so i don't want to risk it.
Sorry for the "cheap" game... I figure better at the beginning than the last day.... I really do suck at baseball games.. the last baseball game I played was a handheld one with LED lights...

GTA has been killing my gamerscore. that along with start back to night school and a new job. hopefully going to finish GTA this weekend so I can start playing some new games and cancel blockbuster gamepass to swith to gamefly.
After my win, I kinda retired from point scoring. Now with me being out of a job next week, well, gamefly might be my new best friend.
Sorry! 1k or 1000, not 1000k LOL
@Fsh - probably, probably
When I try it looks like this...
1st (2nd)
6005 (2425)
2805 (2790)
4983 (3730)
AVG = 4597 (2981)
When I don't try it's...
1st (2nd)
3352 (940)
5660 (1635)
2240 (1900)
4655 (2515)
2870 (2270)
AVG = 3655 (1852)
Both 1st and 2nd places are 1000k higher when I try vs when I don't since I joined the your weekly challenges.
Conclusion: People want to beat me down! :(
Oh... now the comment bar is small again... Good job JCNet... Maybe I should be a litle paranoid that you knew exactly when I was going to start the challenge...
Kaens... I if go for it this time, I'd expect everybody to score at least 6-7k a piece...
I don't know, honestly I would like to score points again, but I'm so freaking competitive that when one of you freaks goes against me I end up staying up all night trying to beat you guys. That's just not healthy, physically or mentally!
I'm so mad at myself, I was in perfect position to take 12th last week & I blew it by falling asleep the last two days at like 9 o'clock. How can someone who only games from 7-9pm every night win a challenge? They can't, that's right.
Plus we have new faces this challenge. I want to see what they do before I commit ;)
<insert some kind of witty comment about how 12th place is yours ... try to make it funny ... remind everyone that kaens is dirty ... like dirty dirty ...>
Now that I have that viral badge, i can compete for the ultimate price: 12th place!!! You are all on notice.
woo woot woot
NOOOO Gaffgarion why did you have to betray my team and force us to kill you =( Boco the Chocobo liked you so much too =(
shhh bota.... We can't snipe the win from Kaens if he knows ahead of time.
Kaens, please let us know if you're gonna try to win this week or not, because the rest of us have signed a pact not to score over 2k unless you're in the running :)
Nvm...mine already cool enough
O_O i can see my Gamer pic....now i gotta find a cool one to show
Me too with allot of arcade games and pirates 3 from my friend i can win!!(Hopefully)
should get more points this time :)
well hopefully lol :)
Alright CA... more room to type comments in!!!
30 people is pretty good... good luck everybody...

hey look im first again!
