    In anticipation of GMC 2011 (which should be released today, sooner or later... c'mon TNT, get on it!), I decided to make a compilation thread. Each day there will be an update of the game(s) to beat, a brief tutorial on how to obtain the score legitimately, and another line or two about how to obtain it through not-so-legitimate means, for the lazy ones. ;)

    Feel free to contribute your own info/guide/tips. :)

    ---------

    What is GMC?

    Every November, AAA comes out to give you new game challenges every day for one week. If you beats his scores, you'll get a shiny new trophy for your user lookup.

    The main page for GMC is: http://www.neopets.com/games/gmc/index.phtml

    What about Lulu's NC Challenge?

    The NC challenge is a part of the main event. Participation is optional, and beating the NC challenge will give you NC items (which are good profit items a year or two down the road, especially if you find the right collectors).

    To participate in Lulu's NC Challenge, you need to purchase special tickets from the Games section in the NC Mall. A 1-challenge ticket pack costs 300 NC, and a 7-challenge ticket pack costs 1300 NC.

    Once you have the ticket pack in your inventory, click to open the drop down menu and activate it. You will then need to apply the tickets on the NC Challenge page: http://www.neopets.com/games/gmc/nc/index.phtml

    How do I receive prizes?

    When you've completed a challenge, click on the blank box on the challenge page to receive your prize! Again, the URL is:

    Woot, TNT finally updates the GMC. And I love siblings rivalry, even though I doubt it matters in the long run which team you join... Read the entire post for more information.

    ----

    What changed this year?

    The main difference this year is that you have to join a team. Team Brains is led by AAA, while Team Brawn is led by his sister, Abigail. Unlike previous GMC, there is no score gap between AAA and Abigail's scores-to-beat. Instead, the main questions are: which genre of games do you prefer, and which team do you like more? (There is a small chance that this will be a popularity contest, Altador Cup style, but it is very unlikely, so for the moment, just join whichever team you like. Personally, I'd root for Team Brains because, honestly, we know that big brothers always win. :lol: )

    Day 1 will last through 11:59pm NST on Tuesday, November 22nd. After that, you will have until 11:59pm on each day to beat the challenge.

    The deadline for all challenges is 11:59pm NST on Monday, November 28th.

    What about the NC component?

    Lulu's keys are still sold in the NC mall. This year, you have the option of purchasing one, or both sets of keys. Abigail Room key and AAA Room key each costs 700NC. Each key opens a different room, and once you activate the key, you will be granted access to a daily room prize. If you want both AAA and Abigail prizes, buy both keys for 1400NC.

    ----

    Day One, November 21st/22nd

    Team Brains (AAA)
    1. Add three different qualifying games* to your list of favorite games.
    2. Send a minimum score of 100 in Kiko Match II.

    Team Brawn (Abigail)
    1. Add three different qualifying games* to your list of favorite games.
    2. Send a minimum score of 500 in Usuki Frenzy.

    *Qualifying Games:

    The qualifying games are different depending on which team you join. Once you've selected a team, go to
    http://www.neopets.com/games/gmc2011/in ... l?page=qfg
    to view your qualifying games.

    To be continued. Check back later for game guides for Kiko Match II & Usuki Frenzy

    Brains, all the way. Anyone else excited? This is probably my first GMC in a couple of years, so I'm pumped.

    I picked Brawns as well. One of the bonus prizes for the first channel was a Strength Serum. Which added 1 str point to my pet. Pretty useful. I might go get it on multiple accounts.

    The hot dog one today is easy, takes like 20 sec a game :D

    Just use the yellow stuff, it makes you bounce. You can draw it under you and fly and draw some more when you land. Takes you all over the place :D

    This youtube movie shows what I mean: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6zYHf7Pgdw Just do that for the first 2 levels and you have the score :)

    Yeah for those who dont know Hot Dog Hero is the Mystery game :)

    As Keknorris said pretty easy just need 2-3 levels to get the required score.

    As for the other game challenges;

    Team Brains: Picnic with the Meepits
    Send a score of 617 in Meepit Juice Break

    Meepit juice wasn't to hard just keep matching the colors for +2 a pipe or if you just need some points before the Meepit leaves you will still get +1 if not the same color :)

    Team Brawn: Count Your Neggs Before They Hatch
    Send a score of 225 in Meerca Chase II

    225 shouldnt be that bad it is snake after all :p

    GAME CHALLENGE
    Scraps from the Table
    Send a score of 138 in Sophie's Stew AND a score of 285 in Hungry Skeith

    These were pretty easy aswell :)
