Did anyone lose a tiny amount of medal points? I just lost 30 points. Also, the For Science! medal didn't send for me as well.

the medals are now visible!

PsychoGoldfish has made an update to the system of medals and I lost 10 points, now in the official list appears this game with the fake medals.

Phew, that's good to know, thanks man.

Okay, I can understand that PG needs to test the API every now and then, but does he REALLY need to do it on a game like this?

Also, so people losing a few points, this problem is probably solved by earning another medal. It happens when a medal doesn't send properly.

thou hast stolen 10 points?, joke is impossible, however it now seems that the medal called "For science!" works because I have obtained!

I just tried this again, and the beat level 3 medal still doesn't work it seems.

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2011-02-28 14:07:13


You people look like freaks :P You seriously pay attention to the exact amount of points you have?

Also I don't like the idea of having medals in adult submissions.

Maybe those guys are OCD that way, but I just have a memory on the caliber of the 99th percentile compared to others. Specific test used to determine that was copying a complex figure (60 points worth of complexity apparently), then redrawing it from memory. Then redrawing it from memory 30 minutes from then without being told about it, while doing other mind-crushing stuff in the meantime.

I don't know about now, but I got it way back in the day. I think the medals were implemented for the game AFTER I finished it, which explains why I got the score medals first, then everything else afterwards.

Is the Don't drop the bomb medal broken? I've got the pop-up twice, no medal.

I have it. It is entirely possible that the server is borked though, since I did shoot PG another PM about broken medal visuals over the weekend.

Now worth points! Very entertaining game. For some reason I don't seem to be able to get the Low Rider medal, so I'm done with the game for now.

Yes, it happened to me a few times too. I think it happens when your combo gets above 20000.

The first one was frustrating enough, I'm not going to spend time getting the same medals again with more obstacles. I'ma give this one a pass.

20 days to approve a broken medal! Nice. Just to think I'll be free of this awful system at 100000 points. I wish I had the strength to leave sooner, enough with this :(

By the way, I'm trying to get the author to understand the whole concept of "bugs" , "broken medal" and "fixes". May take a while...

Dude, now you're just copying me. I'm the original "out at 100k." Represent and such. Word to various parental figures.

Just to confirm:

The two medals don't work in this game right?

I haven't touched the game yet, but...

How would you know? Have you played the whole game in its entirety? What is the criteria?

I have. It's pretty bad. And I can confirm the medals don't actually exist, they're just there for testing ...something...

Though I normally don't play 0-point medal games like these, I tried it anyways. And I scored 777 leaves on my first go o.O

Also, for the Science room in FPA, you have to let the timer expire in order to get the medals. Exiting through the doors will not get you the medals.

Really? Ah, that might explain why I didn't get the medal the first time I played.

And how to get the crazy score? The multiplayer resets at about x50 even tough I'm still doing tricks.
