Official Turbo-Challenge Thread

[Renaldo Moon]

Per Rahnny's suggestion of "turbo" challenging each other, I've made a thread so that we can organize challenges with each other.

Just post here to announce your challenge to someone if you wish, declaring the game and time/level restrictions (I.E. Scrabble Cubes- 1 minute, or Cubis- 1st level only.) Then tell us the results! Post a pic of the ending scores (Or just write them out) and show off your victory!

There's no system implemented of doing this, so we'll have to use an honor system, trusting each person will end their game at the appropriate time. That being said, all challenges will, by default, be free challenges. If you trust another player enough to make a friendly wager, go right ahead! I would suggest, if that's the case, that both players screenshot their score just before closing, and show them here to ensure legitimate play.

If enough people are enthused about this, we could maybe do some small forum tournaments of our own "Turbo-survival?" Ikaruga and I could probably scrape together a few dollars for the winner to be paid via paypal.

I'll start!

I challenge Rahnnyboy to a 1-minute Scrabble Cubes game. Not 1:05, not 1:02. If you haven't entered that word when the clock reads "3:00" remaining, it's too late.

Do you accept?

[rahnnyboy]

accepted and rocked you!!!
the screenshot idea is good...it's pretty simple to hit that one key as soon as you see 3:00...

Of all the suggestion box ideas, i really hope WW implements this one...it's so easy on their side...

[Renaldo Moon]

Apparently I have some learning to do.



I thought taking the time to bust off two or three bingos would launch me forward, but uhh, it didn't work so well. I'll start taking a screenshot of my ending board/time as well.


I'll send you a few more in just a couple minutes, Rahn.

OK...I can't play until after work, so make sure you give adequate time to accept...my strategy so far has been to go apeshit and not think at all...you HAVE TO GET the triple word score cube used...I still haven't been able to complete a board, but have gotten to about 10 cubes left...BMY put up a great score last night...i htink like 650ish...

In one of them I sent you, I got down to three cubes left. I didn't get the highest score ever though.

johan, here are the first two challenges...that last one I had to run off to a attend to a child-related injury...

[Renaldo Moon]

First one:


Second:


You had a good setup on that first one-- You could've played NITTIER and WRY for a lot more points if you had just 5 more seconds.
