<---------------------------------------------------------------------------------->

Three Dare components will run simultaneously this year:
Daily Dare
Double Dare
Daily Dare NC Challenge

Daily Dare Rules
This year, Daily Dare will begin at 12:00:00 AM Neopian Standard Time Monday, March 2nd, 2009 and end at 12:00:00 AM Neopian Standard Time Wednesday, April 1st, 2009.

Before choosing your Daily Dare challenge, you might want to practice the game a few times.

Once you select a Challenge, your choice cannot be changed.

Double Dare Rules
Double Dare: Four of the 30 Daily Dare challenges will also be Double Dare challenges. If you accept the Double Dare challenge, you must beat or match AAA's score. Once you have chosen to take the Double Dare challenge, you cannot change your mind. However, you are free to decline the Double Dare challenge and still play Daily Dare as usual.

If you've beaten or matched AAA's score by the end of the day of the Double Dare, you'll receive both the AAA and Abigail prize for that day. If you haven't bested AAA before the end of the day, you won't receive either of the prizes for that day. Beating or matching Abigail's score in a Double Dare challenge will still make you eligible for the Uberiffic and Spifftastic trophies, even though you will not receive the Abigail prize for the day.

Daily Dare NC Challenge Rules
For the first time ever, Neopets is releasing the Daily Dare NC Challenge. It will begin at 12:00:00 AM Neopian Standard Time, Monday, March 2nd, 2009 and end at 12:00:00 AM Neopian Standard Time, Wednesday, April 1st, 2009.

The Daily Dare NC Challenge allows you to challenge Lulu, a Cybunny gamer, at 30 different games. The games are the same as those in the regular Daily Dare challenge, but the prizes you earn if you beat or match Lulu's score are different. If you successfully complete all 30 games, you will also earn an exclusive bonus NC item.

The NC Challenge can be played in addition to the regular Daily Dare and does not replace it. To participate in the NC Challenge, you must purchase a Game Ticket(s) from the NC Mall Daily Dare Shop, or receive one as a gift from another player.

Trophies are awarded based on the following criteria:
Scoretacular - Beat or match AAA's score on the launch day of all 30 games, as well as all four Double Dare challenges.
The Ultimate Prize - Beat or match AAA's score on the launch day of all the games.
Uberiffic - Beat or match all of Abigail's scores or a combination of AAA's and Abigail's scores on the launch day of every game.
Megasuperb - Beat or match AAA's scores for all of the games by the end of Daily Dare.
Spifftastic - Beat or match all of Abigail's scores or a combination of AAA's and Abigail's scores for all of the games by the end of Daily Dare.

Bleh to the NC challenge. No way I'm buying game tickets just to beat more scores...lol

Double Dare sounds kinda cool though. Would love to go for it, and will try my best, but I haven't managed Ultimate in the past years. Not to mention my family worries when I spend all day playing games on neo... :lol:

Ditto to everything butterflygirl said. I can't believe they have the gall to put MegaSuperb as a prize category -- that category does not exist.

I usually only get Uberiffic because I just don't have the time in the day to beat AAA all the time. Will try for the Double Dare of course, so here's hoping.

NC Challenge sounds cool, i.e. the better prizes, but again international players are disadvantaged here. I see that u can be given a ticket from another player, but I doubt that's gonna help.

At any rate, good luck to all!

With any luck, they'll get the prizes right this time.

I'm just curious about how much the game tickets will be in the NC Mall. My best guess will be a 100 NC for one game. They'll probably discount for buying the games in bulk. If people are having to pay to play... I hope the prizes are good.

I just hope the pay-to-play challenge isn't a test to see how much neopets players are willing to shell out in order to participate in site events. I would kill me to have a NC Mall portion of a plot (if we see one again in the nearish future.)

Siniri · **Posted:** Sun Mar 01, 2009 6:34 pm

The prices are: 1 ticket=200NC, 5 tickets=500NC, 10 tickets=900NC, and 30 tickets=2000NC. I think it's $1/100NC, right? Which would make the whole Lulu challenge cost $20. Ridiculous.

Seriously, I want my DD 2008 prize!!!

Any idea on how high the scores for the NC Challenge might be? I'm guessing between AAA and Abigail, but I guess we'll find out tomorrow

My guess is they'll be below Abi's... after all, if you're paying, you want the prize no matter what, right? After all, you paid for it. Also, isn't Lulu their youngest sister? So she'd probably be worse at games.

butterflygirl · **Posted:** Mon Mar 02, 2009 5:49 am

Actually, Lulu's their cousin... Still, I hope they never consider an NC Mall mandatory part of a plot. It really isn't fair to the international users, even not considering the principle of the thing...lol

Day 1
Super Hasee Bounce

AAA - 1000
Abi - 100

When sending the score you will get a message:

Quote:

Can't send score in offline mode

Apparently it is a joke? Just go to your prize page and the prize will be available.

Does anyone know why it keeps telling me I'm in offline mode every time I try to send a score?

Noone knows why - maybe a joke, maybe a glitch. Apparently the scores are not being added to highscore (for those who have gone passed their old score).

But the important thing is the score is sending and the prize is available when you go to collect it.

This game makes me grumpy. It's way too buggy, and there's too much chance involved. I just had the orange Hasee go straight through the middle of his side of the see-saw and lost a life. Makes no sense. It's annoying enough when they go through the end instead of bouncing off it, but the middle? Bah.
