Read the last page, Goldfish posted in it.
They are SUPPOSED to show in your profile, but not on the game page. They do not count towards your medal score.

Yes. I use this thread to update my page. And everyone uses it to come up with tips, clues and strategies to newly released games which in turn helps create walkthroughs and guides.

Ideally, that's what it's used for. I was talking about how 2 out of 3 posts in this thread are off-topic or completely unnecessary. They make this thread a pain to browse through. Couple that with the fact that so many people can't bother to read even the previous page, and things end up getting repeated over and over.

For example, I said on the previous page that the 10 missing points were most likely due to the "Memories" medal. On this page, 2 people ask about it (one right after the other) and someone has to restate what I already said.

And then there are posts like this:

A new medal game :D

When someone posts a link to a new medal game, is it really necessary for someone to reply "This is a new medal game"?

All I was saying is that, if we can't keep bullshit posts to a minimum, then we really don't need this thread.

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2009-11-04 15:18:57


It's necessary because people tend to post links and state they wish the medals were in the game.

What the fuck is wrong with delineation between medal link posts? It's just a few words, fucking serious..

I don't think the author has patched the game back up with the medal API and submitted it so the medals are still unattainable. The medal indicators on the game's page were probably accidentally thrown back up there because of the update. I still suggest people play the game anyways because it is a LOT of fun!

Yep, I think that also Dragon Boy medals are unattainable and if we can get it is like just winning secret medals because they don´t show.

huh, that's weird...the last few posts says that the medals doesn't show up, or are unnattainable, but it's working perfectly for me...
nothing's wrong: they're showing up and i'm getting them.

Hrrrmmmm.. maybe I have to clear my data because I've already gotten all the medals in the game. I'll give it a shot later when I have time. Glad to know the author got the medal API to work with the game though! As for Dragon Boy I know nothing about it and probably won't play it until this weekend. Hope it's fun though!

I can't help feeling that this has something to do with the level/sharing API used it Time Fcuk. :3

I can't help but feeling you are right and that everyone should go look at Time Fcuk again >_>

hmm...the "construct your ship" medal in Revert to Growth is not working...and, like Caraboo, i need to reset the data to get the other two.

Yes, because it's too much trouble to constantly support multiple versions of the portal, classic view is going to stay 100% classic and get none of the new api features. After looking at our database we found less than 0.1% of our members even use it. And since those few fear change so much... we'll keep you safe from new stuff >_>

so, can you say how to beat the Hungry Ghost boss? please?

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2009-11-04 19:23:59


I had my dragon maxed my health regain at 6 or 7 and cast rate at level 8 or 9.
I attacked the ghost at the beginning and when it got really big I stated to run around it and let my dragon use it's fire on it and healed when needed.

Sorry, I should have added that if someone without any of the medals could go through the game and get 19 keys and beat the 20th level without getting the last key and let me know if they get this medal or not it would be greatly appreciated. Let me know! Sorry for the double post guys.. I really hate doing that..

But of course, the medals don't seem to be working.

Also they may have pulled another literate/illiterate scheme
