Yeah, I noticed that too. And what's even stranger: after the multiplayer being reset your score goes up much slower.

Guess who hasn't got a single game with approved medals, and still keeps submitting them?

Herpa derpa derp, I can't read. The medal says 10000. Forget it.

Great game. The best medal is the one for jumping over the knight.

Also, this one hasn't been posted yet (I think):

This medal has been mention before many times. Waynerz didn't say anything? Making us look like fools trying to figure it out. I guess he doesn't check this topics much... Well, I want that medal.

Hey hey, i'm not trying to make anybody look like fools :( lol. And I click this topic plenty. Next to facebook, it's probably my second most clicked link (If I didn't have my tabs pined down on chrome, it would probably be second). How else would I find all these 0 point games? I don't know how you guys find them all.

I just pmed somebody back (I think it was liquid) but wasn't much help. Can't really remember how I did it, but I think it was something to do with the boss. I remember the game glitching at the boss a few times, but that was before several patches he put in the game. Looking at the caption for the medal, kinda makes me thing it has something to do with dying at the boss, maybe when he has one hit left? Or poor chap could mean finish the game with 0 dollars? Wish I could help more, but I don't really remember, that game was months ago.

Also, you don't have to get them all in 1 game; it's a replay medal.

Also also, the secret to Arcade mode is to ignore all candy unless it's out in the open, and only chase ship powerups; focus on evading oncoming fire. First time I really did that, I made it all the way to the final boss without dying and had well over 300 candies by the time I got there. It turns out you have to play the final boss like he's the first one; rather than staying to the outside and focusing on killing other things first, like I did with the bat boss, the final boss spawns new purple pumpkins from his mouth, so the only way to play it is to stay right in front of him the whole time.

For survival, once you have the spray gun it's actually pretty easy. Once you realize the enemies travel in set patterns which they can't deviate from, all you have to do when it gets hairy (like after the second round of bosses) is stay to one side and be patient. Enough health packs fall in Survival that you shouldn't have any problem at all getting to 333 candies. If you try to survive in the middle of the screen after the second boss pack, you're doomed, and cannot possibly get to 333 candies.

Honestly, if the medal's only worth 5 points anyway, I don't think it's really worth so much effort. I can see people going out of their way to chase it if it were 100, but for 5? I'm certainly not going to bother.

I can understand you saying that, but the medal seriously needs some clarification, otherwise nobody is able to obtain it. The Wiki guide doesn't give much help about it either (scratch that, it's useless as shit). I, as a Wiki editor, would like to update it with better info, but first I need that info.

Also, I PM'ed molkman, the programmer of CatGame, if he can clear this up.

I lost 100 points recently. I had 84020, got 300 in the evil pumpkin game, and now have 84220. This happened after the previous loss, which I didn't experience. Anyone else notice something similar?

On a side note, I managed to get over 1 million points in FPA Sneak Peek. I noticed that the sudden combo loss was a result of hanging on a wall for too long. If you want to keep your combo, just refuse to climb any walls when over about 500000 points. Also, whenever you hit the ground, slide/roll and jump again.
Also, the NaN error is completely random.

Just got it as well using your strategy. To make it a bit easier, try and get the ledge hold by holding down when you slide off an edge. And I didn't get the pop-up, but it shows on my page.

The order that skiller got the medal, plus my conjectures, highly suggested the boss stage. Brb grinding because I have nothing better to do atm...

Well, clearing my .sol file for the game got me the 10 point secret medal. I don't know why it refused to show up before.

You're sure you cleared your .sol and started afresh?

Yea I used CCleaner to clear my cookies etc.. When it was done I no longer had all of the valentine cards so I assumed it worked. I'm talking about one of the secret ones and not the giant heart one don't know how to get it but the other one I know how to get it its just not letting me get it. I guess I could clear everything again. But I'm on a wireless internet and the signal comes and goes could that possibly be the problem?

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2011-03-03 01:31:18


Originally when the secret medal wouldn't work for me, the popup didn't even show up.

Have you tried manually deleting your .sol file? It should be located here (it will be different if you're using an OS older than Vista):

C:\Users\[Username]\AppData\Roaming\Macr omedia\Flash Player\#SharedObjects\[random]\uploads.u ngrounded.net\561000\561843_Cardiac_Snow drift_NG.swf

Nonononono, CCleaner does NOT remove .sol files. (Generally speaking shared objects aren't considered junk, I think) You need to remove them manually.

For Vista/Win7, the file path is
C:\Users\YOUR USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flas h Player\#SharedObjects\RANDOM CODE\uploads.ungrounded.net
You may need to toggle folder options to show hidden files.

For most games, the medal popup appears when the medal is sent. If you see the medal popup but no medal being sent, then it's time to suspect your connection.

Further thought (any mods seeing this?): Maybe we should gather such kinds of info and sticky them. Or perhaps just make medal game topics into a subforum, with a thread for each medal game. That way we remove the problem of having to search the whole thread, which getting really long.

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2011-03-03 01:54:40


EDIT: My bad, CCleaner does clear .sol, it seems. Somehow I just had the impression they didn't. And I should read more closely: All your cards were re-locked so yes, it should have worked, although it might be worthwhile to pay that folder a visit and see for yourself.

I believe the medal popup appears in that game. So you ought to see it if you've done it correctly. Or maybe you were doing it wrong....I'll send you a PM.

Response to Newgrounds Medals - Games and Tips 2011-03-03 02:20:59


Okay guys, molkman PM'ed me back and yes, the 5-pointer can be gotten at the boss fight. Who wants a PM? :)
