Key Quest [Split 1]

[Pink]

I only ever play 2 player games, so both the paintbrush and scrambled rainbow negg were from 2 player game gold keys.

[Daze]

anyone else having trouble with the power-ups not working again?

Not anything in particular. I have been playing for hours.

Sometimes I do not get to use a powerup when one has been played on me or after a mini-game.

[Pink]

I've never had an issue with the power-ups...

The KQ board has been taken off Premium and put in the general Neoboard Index. So anyone who wants to catch up with what has been going on or needs a place to vent about KQ, you now have somewhere.

[Pickles]

Nice to see the boards are now available to all of us non-premium people.

I'll be posting stats on winnings later tonight - probably around 10PM NST. If I continue to receive prize results, I'll try to post updated results every 2 weeks or so.

Edit: Results as of 8/26/08
All are linked as the images are big and shrinking them makes them illegible.
**Please note: All of these statistics, etc, are based only on the data I have collected to this point, and may or may not be completely accurate. You'll notice I'm quite lacking in the Bronze/Lead key areas.

In addition, there has been one reported Biscuit Paint Brush (by a gold key) and one reported Bottled Air Faerie (by a bronze key). I know these aren't the only things that have been won, but I'm only taking into account full key results (IE, I know what 3 items went with the p/b, etc) to try and keep the stats balanced.

I'm aiming for updated info every 2 weeks or so, though I'm thinking monthly may be better. If you'd like to contribute, shoot me a PM with a list of items you won, and by what type of key. Thanks!!

I was just having a look over what you'd done, and noticed that, within Probabilities, Ogrin Survivor appears twice. Keep up the good work. When the game comes out of Beta, hopefully you'll have more luck with the lower keys.

Haha, whoops. Good catch! Forgot to fix the name - the second one is a valid stat, just for "Scratchcard Secrets" instead. It'll be fixed in my next update.

Did anyone else see that you can now play 2, 3, 4 AND 5 key games? In two key, you only battle for a lead key though. I don't know about the other colours though.

[evenstar]

I've tried a 2 and a 3 key game so far. I won both times, on the 2 key game I got a lead key and on the 3 key game I got a bronze key. Has anyone lost a 2 key game yet? Just wondering if you get any key/prize other than the np if you don't win that one.

[Katherine]

Nope, you don't get a key. I lost.

[Siouxper]

According to a post on the Charter boards:

Actually if you win a 2 key game you only get a lead key and if you lose no key only NP.
3 key winner gets bronze
4 key winner gets silver
5 key winner gets gold.

Also, many people are being randomly disconnected. I definitely won't be playing until it's out of beta.

There is no need to avoid KQ, sometimes the glitches cut you off, but overall for a glitchy game, the rewards are worth it. Playing 2 player, 5 keys gives the best result - either gold or silver.

I have won hundreds of codestones, which I am using to train. I have traded in neggs at the neggery and every else is sold, which makes a whole lot of nps. I have also won a Biscuit Paint Brush.

My computer isn't the fastest and so far tonight, I have not won any minigames, but I am still getting a silver key at the end, so no harm done.

Even out of Beta, I can not see the game getting much better.

[Pink]

I can't even get the game to load for me...

[butterflygirl]

This probably makes hitting "Quick Play" a little more risky...lol

Edit: hmmm, 5 key games are the only option again...

[stormymyst]

I am really getting sick and tired of not being able to play the mini-games. Is it like that for anyone else? I seriously have not won one YET!
