I am a GMC virgin, and will pretend that you are one too. Every November AAA comes out from hiding again to challenge us with a week's worth of game scores. Historically they have been pretty easy to beat, but some players may still prefer to rely on SS or AoB to save time.

You can visit the main GMC page on Neo here.
The list of all qualifying games for GMC 2011 can be found here.

This year, the GMC is being split into two teams. Brains (AAA) vs. Brawn (Abigail).
Team Brains focuses more on puzzle games and logic challenges.
Team Brawn focuses more on action and adventure games.
Bonus Challenges are awarded on certain challenges to allow you to rack up more points for your team. This will let you complete the challenge up to 4 more times.

++ You can go back and complete challenges from previous days and still qualify for prizes! If you missed a day, or could not complete the challenges in time, don't worry; you can go back and do them on another day. ++


WHICH TEAM SHOULD I CHOOSE?!?

• AAA's team scores will not be any higher than those required for Abigail's team scores.
• You cannot change your team once you have selected it.
• Both teams have the same number of challenges to complete.
• Both teams use the same qualifying games list.
• So far, it seems that both teams get the same main prizes, and get random prizes for the bonus challenges.
• So, if you like puzzle games, choose brains. If you like action games, choose brawn. It shouldn't affect your prizes during the event.

The NC Side: Lulu's Room Raid

Spoiler

You may purchase Lulu's Room Raid keys from the NC Mall for 700 NC apiece to participate in the NC side of the event. These are not necessary to participate in the main event, only to receive the NC prizes.
You have the option to purchase either an AAA key, an Abigail key, or both. You must purchase the type of key which represents the room that you wish to enter. To gain access to both rooms, you must purchase both keys.
When you purchase your key, you may activate it from your inventory.
The Room Raid is only available until November 28, 2011. You can redeem your prizes from previous days if you miss.

HAHAHA omg, that’s so funny WTF I have to share that with the forum XD

[scarbunnies]

Good luck to whoever play GMC 2011!

I don't think I'll ever beat AAA in any games. Oh well.

[aipotenahs]

I've never actually done the GMC because it never existed when I first played and I've been AFN (Away From Neo) so long. So it should be fun doing it for the first time.

[ch33psh33p]

Is GMC just beating a certain game score everyday?

Is there some kind of competition for who gets it done faster, or is it just a person by person thing?

It's person-by-person.
Mostly it will be beating a certain score, but a couple days will require you to send scores for multiple games (no minimum score requirement). Day 7 last year required 75 different games.

There also have been cooperative goals where (like last year for example) if everyone on the site collectively sent 45,000,000 scores, everyone who participated would get another prize.

[Stitches]

The tickets you linked are for the new game challenge, not GMC. They haven't added any of the new stuff yet (as of 11am NST), the GMC page is still last year's . Just so people don't buy one accidentally!

Aha! Thank you. Will take that link down and the pics until the GMC is released later today.

I wonder if we'll get extra time since they're so late. It's past noon in Cali now, not to mention the middle of the night in Europe etc...

Usually we'll have an extra day to play the game when they release it late
It's strange that it's still not released yet though o: ~~

Updated, challenges are up.

TEAM BRAINS




because I'm repressing my desire to be a little girl

[ShinaDutchAD]

I can't choose between Brains and Brawn.

There's no difference in difficulty this year....and the winning team gets the spoils.

I love adventure games...but yet I also love logic ones.

UGH

TEAM BRAWN





because I'm a sucker for the underdogs

I would say choose Brains (AAA). Most people just assume that AAA would be harder and have a better prize for those who don't read the details.

Also done. So easy.

[James]

I also did Team Brawn because Abigail is amazing.

Well so far it's toward team brains by a bit. It's only been up for, what, an hour? Not even? We'll see

[GustavoH]

My bonus items: (brain)

[Junsu]

Second prize:


Broken Hourglass

Please note that Brawn prizes and Brain prizes are the same. (or at least for the first challenge?)
I didn't read anything yet so is there somewhere that says so?

The bonus prizes are different, but the first item you get is the same for both teams ...

[Junsu]

Bonus prizes are different for everyone and not unique to GMC, I expect it to be something like r50-r80 or something

[Rainie]

(^ &They'll also give you more prizes ^__^)

The challenge prizes are the same for both teams for this challenge, and I think that it'll probably stay that way o: ~
/Or else people will probably complain/whine to TNT about prizes being better/etc./

&Yeah, the bonus prizes seem to be random (within the pile of items they'll give out at least) o:
