Absynth Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 (edited) Adam Woods and Sofia Pennington spent 2 hours, 25 minutes in the bar with 2 arcade machines. The goal: get every single one of the 11 mech action figures. They are extremely hard to get since there are something like 120 prizes. At the very last second, literally 50 seconds before the shuttle was to leave. We get the seraph. 11/11. Early on we also got a plush space carp (that says Glorf! every time you poke it) so we dubbed it Glorf Day.

Guest Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 Bravo. Despite a round that was absolute hell, this was amazing to see on the end of assistants to occupy themselves.
beanie321420 Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 I was here for this. History in the making.
ForgottenTraveller Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 Astounding. Despite my efforts, I have never managed to get them all no matter what. Solid effort.
Guest Marlon Phoenix Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 This is an ideal we can all strive for. If nothing else is put into the hall of fame, this must be it.
Synnono Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 Behold Sofia Pennington's true power, and despair.
Absynth Posted September 9, 2016 Author Posted September 9, 2016 Added the template formatting, whoops.
Roderick Grey Posted September 12, 2016 Posted September 12, 2016 A Masterwork of dedication, a true triumph.
Garnascus Posted September 17, 2016 Posted September 17, 2016 I am super conflicted on this lads. On the one hand this is literally just sitting at an arcade machine the entire round and collecting toys. On the other hand.... i dont think i have ever seen someone accomplish it. It sort of feels like it would promote too weird of a precedent if i put this in. What happens if someone else manages to collect all 11? Do i put them in the hall of fame too if they make an app? Is this one somehow sacred? I dunno...thoughts?
Guest Posted September 17, 2016 Posted September 17, 2016 RPly, it probably doesn't qualify for something outstanding. So, not really that special, in retrospect.
Synnono Posted September 17, 2016 Posted September 17, 2016 I say yes. We accepted Nar-Salt because someone clicked the button and made it funny. This seems to be a thing people enjoy, and it is rare.

I say yes in the same way we celebrate record breakers. Yeah it will be repeated/broken in the future but we should celebrate it's first recorded occurance.
KazMartell Posted October 2, 2016 Posted October 2, 2016 I would also throw my vote in for this to be in the hall of fame. It's something two people spent an entire round trying to do (and honestly I can think of plenty of people who would literally waste an entire day off trying to achieve a goal like this.) They also did something no-one has done before. I would say it doesn't matter so much if it happens again- if someone else manages to replicate the success, good for them. It's not Hall of Fame material to do the same thing as someone else, but only if you beat it... and they already got all 11.
veradox Posted October 6, 2016 Posted October 6, 2016 not hall of fame worthy because they didn't send them on the cargo shuttle for oldfag memory points
veradox Posted October 6, 2016 Posted October 6, 2016 oldfag memory points What does this even mean? it means if you tossed a full set of mech toys into the cargo shuttle you won a free seraph or phazon i forgot
Guest Complete Garbage Posted October 6, 2016 Posted October 6, 2016 oldfag memory points What does this even mean? it means if you tossed a full set of mech toys into the cargo shuttle you won a free seraph or phazon i forgot It was a phazon. It's an old AD13 meme.
Garnascus Posted October 9, 2016 Posted October 9, 2016 So, i thought a lot about this one. The TLDR here is a pretty big NO. I get that this is a pretty neat moment, and i am kind of impressed that someone would spend an entire round farming the arcade game. This moment however fails to fall under the two arbitrary requirements i have set so far. Its not really at all hilarious nor is it a moment of above and beyond or really interesting roleplay. its literally just sitting at the arcade machine for a whole round. very cool and i am glad you managed to do this but its not hall of fame material.
