So, I've posted this challenge before, but this time around, there are going to be a few changes so that it's less tedious and/or time consuming than the last one. For the most part if will be the same. If you're unfamiliar with this challenge, don't fret! It's quite simple. You have all these games lying around. You want to play them, but EH there's something better to do. Well, let's make a challenge out of them, shall we? The point of this challenge is to just pick up the game and play where you last left off for a day. That's it! And the next day, you move on to another game.
First thing's first, I want challengers to have more customization with their challenge. So there will be four modes, Beginner, Standard, Ultimate, and Over-Achiever.
Beginner: You must use 3-6 main games. You must do at least 30 minutes of gameplay for the game on the day you play it.
Standard: You must use all your main games. If you have more than one copy of a main game, you can choose to add it in or not. At least 45 minutes of gameplay per game are required.
Ultimate: You must use all your main games, including extra copies, as well as all your ROMs, including any hacks you have downloaded. At least 45 minutes of gameplay per game are required.
Over-Acheiver: All your main games, including extra copies, all ROMs you have, hacks, and spin-off games are required. A minimum of an hour of gameplay is required for each game.
*For Beginner and Standard, if you have a game that no longer works or there's literally nothing to do on the game, you may use a ROM of that game, as long as you actually do have the physical cart.
Please don't enter a mode if you don't have the amount of games/ROMs! It's considered cheating. It wouldn't be fair to enter Ultimate if you have no ROMs or hacks downloaded, so it'd be better if you entered Standard in that case.
1. Please follow the guidelines for your mode.
2. Legendaries are fine. This might be the only challenge where they are excepted, haha.
3. DO NOT START A NEW GAME. The only exception to this is if the battery has run dry or it's a game/ROM you haven't really touched yet. The purpose of this challenge is to see how well you can readapt to whatever you were last doing.
4. If you use a game that's currently in use for another challenge, it's fine to use it. Kills two birds with one stone, right?
5. You don't have to make your days consecutive. For instance, you might play Red on Monday and wait til Wednesday or so to play the next one on your list.
6. It's also recommended that you don't play twin games consecutively, like playing Diamond one day and then Pearl the next. Wouldn't wanna get too burnt out. You can randomize the order of your games yourself, or get someone else to randomize an order for you.
7. When updating, if possible, please post your team status and location etc. that you had when you first picked up the game as well as what you ended with by the time you were finished.
8. Also when updating, please try to post what all you did and not just the team you started/ended the day with. It's also recommended you update on the day you played a certain game.
9. You are NOT trying to complete the game. Remember, this is just really to see how much you can do and it's only for fun. So unless you last played and were at the Elite 4, don't sweat trying to complete the game.
10. This challenge is meant to go at your own pace, so take your time if needed. It's summer for most people though, so I thought bringing this back would be a good time waster lol.
If you have any questions, please ask! I hope I didn't explain things badly, but I suck at explaining. :( lol
