^Just asking, are you clicking photographs from a CRT monitor?
 
Everything's being done with a phone camera. And yeah, 2 of the TVs that I'm playing stuff on are old CRT ones.

Yeah I realized it was a phone camera. BTW, are you going through old video games just to complete the challenges?
 
Whats the deal? I posted my completed challenges and my progress didn't get updated.

#59 done. Sorry I haven't been doing challenges for a few days now. (Not including school days, I can't do them then anyway.) I've been busy and forgot. I would've done more today, but I just made a horizontal iPod stand out of cardboard, and don't feel like doing any (more) challenges today. I'll put that iPod stand to use tomorrow, if I remember.

Pending. You have 6 challenges completed, but I can only count 5 because one of them you crossed out but didn't provide the proof for that - fix #15 and you'll be good!

Accepted. Fishing in Twilight Princess was hard lol. And to answer your question, #58 should be an actual score (so 250,000+ is acceptable).

And if you actually play a game drunk and video tape yourself doing it I'll count it haha.
