[QUOTE=tyler3497;29204411]Should we go for Kick It next, since it should be the fastest according to dougley?[/QUOTE]

definitely.

Some people should go for Kick It, while others go for Defense Grid like i said, since it has 5 potatoes which is a times 5 multiplier.

Next. Anyone who abandons TWEOTW right now is the devil.

Toki Tori should be faster actually, not for much too.

Can you get banned from Steam for downloading games save files that also unlock achievements? I downloaded the Defense Grid one (which didn't seem to work correctly because I still didn't get gold) and it unlocked some achievements with it too when I loaded up C.H.A.S.

Also, without The Ball save file, it's like impossible to get the first potato.

We have almost pushed it to Sunday night!

Anyone got that autohotkey thing for cogs? can't seem to find it again.

I'm gonna work on Defense Grid since I don't have that much music on this Computer.

[QUOTE=oO0Virus0Oo;29204450]Toki Tori should be faster actually, not for much too.[/QUOTE]

You're right.

Half the people should do Kick It, while the other half does Toki. That or erryone goes onto Defense grid cause of the multiplier.

Yeah, sounds like a plan. However I think focusing on the games which take longer, while seeing less progress done by hours, would pay off at end. Unless unlocking bars 100% gives some sort of boost, then going for games which take less time would pay off.

Man, I'm having trouble with the TWEOTW's potatoes. I can't get the fucking A+...

That's a relief. Thanks. Also, how many more users for TWEOTW do we need?

The second one is cake compared to the first. I had so much trouble with the Arcadia one, so aggravating.

Not users, 4292 hours(of total gameplay). Might be less, haven't updated the page in 10 minutes.

Has anyone else though about how this will mean about a 4 PM PST release tomorrow?

Amnesia just updated.

are you saying it runs on playtime?

[Mercantoria]

Man, I forgot about how much fun audiosurf is.

And how much I suck at it.

[bionic0n3]

I thought the "gameplay required" thing was proved to be false?

Yes it does.

[Artyom]

I love you Valve.

[Mercantoria]

Also, I've been trying and failing to get the potato for getting gold on device has been modified. I've read several different strategys, and so far the most succesful has been Orange and Cubes only on Elite Iron mode, but I still wind up a good 50000~75000 short every time. Any tips?

Otherwise it would make little to no sense, counting by players I mean. So technically you would only need to start the game and that's it.

No one go to pcgamer.com they have a screenshot that spoiled something for me. Don't know how major it is but I would have rather not known.

I kept falling just short, until I tried it on elite. requires more points, but at the same time, you get a shit ton more companion cubes. go for orange, I think that color has the higher point value.

Saw it. It spoils the skin you get from the potato pack.
It's exactly what you think.
