[Krazy4Krash]

Yay. Got the file ready to go.

Deadline: July 31, 2013 8:00PM CST (9:00PM EST)

Well damn. Guess it's over. =/

I'm considering either closing MM up with this round, or having two challenges for round 6.

What other challenges do you consider doing in Majora's Mask? Would a second challenge in round 6 relate to the first at all?

 

[Ventus]

Well damn. Guess it's over. =/

Honestly I feel like punching myself in the face. I fixed it, but it's ahorrible mistake Q_Q

What other challenges do you consider doing in Majora's Mask? Would a second challenge in round 6 relate to the first at all?

I was considering wrapping MM up with the final battle - Majora's Mask, Majora's Incarnation, and Majora's Wrath - without using Fierce Deity Mask. And after that? An accuracy test for THEM. In this case, the second isn't at all related to the first; it's more of a minigame than anything else.

 

[Krazy4Krash]

Haven't touched the game all month. @_@ Whelp, school is over now, so I can actually start planning a route. I feel like that'll be the hardest part. Can't imagine doing the temple more than a few times, and I'll end up just submitting the best of that bunch.

 

[Ventus]

Alright, I think I've decided what I'll do. Next round will be two things: Defeat Majora (MM) and complete Inside the Deku Tree (OoT). If you want, we can trade OoT for another game. ^^

 

[Krazy4Krash]

Sounds good. Can I recommend that we only continue with the Ocarina of Time dungeons after we see how the turnout of the Inside the Deku Tree run goes?

I, for one, would love short challenges (such as the previous Demise attempt) that take little time to do, in order to encourage participation. A run like we're doing now that forces a late dungeon with lots of preparation (and difficulty to boot) will never receive much attention. The lack of activity in this very thread is evident enough, as say compared to the Demise challenge thread.

Now I know the Demise challenge actually received a terrible amount of entries, I can assure that is due to the difficulty of it. For the future, something along the lines of letter-sorting in The Wind Waker would be ideal, even though I personally would hate that because I suck at it. It can be done at any point of the game past the intro, takes literally thirty seconds to do, has no true difficulty to speak of, and still varies heavily in results. I think that's what to aim for.

 

[Ventus]

Minigames were on my list of to dos, actually. I was thinking we could make rounds with any minigame from any game, but I figured that people would not necessarily be interested because minigames are one of those "afterthoughts".

 

[Ventus]

Well, submissions are officially closed. I got one submission this time, likely due to school:
Krazy4Krash's Submission

And as such, Krazy4Krash is the winner. Gold shall be distributed, and award given hopefully ASAP.
