I'd like to join, but people were too serious last time. I'll probably just join a random one off the invite forum.

I was laid up in bed for about a week over the span of the contest so I really stopped caring around that time. I had games from GameFly just collecting dust while I slept 18+ hours a day. I'd be tempted to join another one but as much as I like the people on this forum there is just something about a contest like this that brings out the worst in some people.

Let me know what one you join, I wouldn't mind joining up with another DVDTalker.

I joined. Maybe this will encourage me to get through Stranglehold. Also The Club and I think Bully will come out during the challenge.

Don't yell if I play Boogie Bunny's though! :-) It's a cute game but the achievements are nothing to sneeze at. lol

I just bought it a few weeks ago and am about halfway through, and man the reviews didn't get it wrong. This game is redundant. It's a blast to play but it needed more variety. So I'm with you on that one in the new challenge.

I could play the first level of Strangehold a hundred times, I love the game and how it plays. I just didn't care for the last few levels.

Question. I signed up for the challenge that achau was trying to start, but it seems everyone is going with chibul's. So, what can I do? Is there a way to back out of the other unstarted challenge?

Go to the challenge page and there is an X next to your name to remove yourself from the challenge.

OK...I'm starting it...

Remember that this is a casual contest...no cheesing (the 06 sports games/Avatar/playing only easy games). We're in to have fun, not to get 84 jazillion achievements.

Started it...we had 11 signed up, and it randomly booted TurdFerguson. Not sure why...I figured you could go above the minimum amount.

Yeah...it didn't at first, but now he's back. So that's good.

Steelgear, you're going down. Dashboard doesn't give achievements, buddy.

you guys better watch out. Once I get 10 kills with a Sentry Gun on Team Fortress 2, I'm gonna be ahead 5 whole points. (I've been trying to get this damn achievement for hours).

Whoaw! I thought the contest started tomorrow! I better get to playing.

I am crossing my fingers for the snow "storm" they are expecting tomorrow here in DC so I can spend the day with Stranglehold & the Darkness. Oh and that fozen ice planet game. I am stuck on a boss in each game. :-)

Ya, I'm working on my 2nd playthrough of Mass Effect, trying to get the Asari Ally, so I've gotta complete all the assignments. I'm stuck on one of them right now, just because I have the difficulty pumped up a bit. I'm sure I'll plow through it this weekend.

Also got my 7x combo on Poker Smash. I was so excited, wasn't even going for it.

Nice job on that one, that achievement is driving me crazy to get and I still marvel at the videos of the guys that are getting combos of like 40x +.

Most of the 24x+ are the game programmers. Most normal people can't get it.
