Got the same score for Aekea as I did for Durem, just 12... That sea goddess has the special powers, lol. But overall the game is a lot less laggy and easier to play now.

Great job, Maui and Kiwi!

So far I've only gotten one 20 (for Barton), and my next best is still 16 (for Durem).

Here's another link for you guys, from somebody else trying to keep up with links to the games... if you don't see a link here then maybe look in this thread:
http://www.gaiaonline.com/forum/rejected-olympics-2012/all-games-in-one-thread-oh-my/t.81103227_1/

I guess it's going to be one game every other day for a total of 5 games. The event is supposed to end July 31st, so you'll have plenty of time to catch up. Two days to play just one game is a little long if you ask me... There was SO much more to do last Olympics!

PS - Go Durem!

Go Barton! All the good folk come from Barton. wink

Wish me luck, I'm gonna go drop.

Oddly enough, the trophy doesn't show up in my banner. I'm going to check on my settings... I had to enter the event page through the event forum instead.

Not just you, I noticed it too. I just manually typed the link to the event page.

Weird. I can't see anything blocked in my settings either. Some accounts must be glitched...

I guess the missing trophy link had nothing to do with the account. It's missing now from all of my accounts. Maybe removing it is part of Gaia's strategy to reduce lag? Hopefully. wink

*EDIT: It's all back to normal now.

So I discovered an interesting trick with this game. Apparently it uses the actual dimensions of your usable avatar (ie, what's actually on your avi). So if you have a larger avi or one with pieces sticking out, then you can get hit on your trailing pieces, but you can also reach out and grab the flying heads easier. On the other hand, a smaller avi will allow you to dodge things and keep from getting hit, but also makes catching heads more difficult.

So try to find a happy medium. If you have any transformation items, then they can be really useful. You can turn yourself into a tiny frog and never get hit for instance (I tried two sizes of frogs though, and found them too small to catch lanzers with), or you can find something a little bigger that's streamlined to your taste. Overly large avis are greatly disadvantaged in this game. I tried the raptor transformation was able to get a 20, but not entirely easily. The raptor's beak was awesome for snatching lanzers out of the air and eating them, but the raptor's long, trailing tail was the disadvantage to getting hit.

If anybody finds a great transformation that works for this game, let us know. wink I find it's best to have something sticking out from your leading side, but nothing sticking out from your trailing side. Remember that the avi does turn to move in the direction you aim it.

I had a heck of a time getting my centaur through, lol!
