God dammit why can't people be more like matt-likes-swords and add a resend medals option.
That is why matt-likes-swords in my favorite flash artist, he actually cares about the people who plays his stuff rather than thinking that users are scum for adding him to the favs list.

Also I want to say a kind "Fuck you" to BarfQuestion and Komix here, fuck you guys.

hasn't replied to me in a few days and nothing was updated in the game's info, so I'm assuming he isn't going to do anything about it. Guess the same thing's going to happen as FUI2

When I first got that question, I thought they were all the same answers and the letters were somehow messed up and should've been A B and C

As for the medals, I guess you have to play a shit load of games to be lucky enough to get the possible situations, or if the author programmed it so it's not random, then I guess you've got to play long enough to get all the medals.

I've been fearing that happening to me. As anyone gotten three bombs in a row? The odds of that one must be staggering.

The odds are exactly 1/172 chance from my records using the "invincible" ability after you won a single game. The odds are you have to be either a hacker or one lucky son of a bitch.

I don't know if someone is making a walkthrough for Drop the Bomb, but I have a tip before it happens: Keep in mind there is only so many questions they could ask. So keep playing untill you find familiar answers.

I was about to come here and complain that I just got 20k in drop the bomb without getting the medal, but then I played it again and hit some bizarre glitch where I instantly won a game with over 200,000k!!!

By posting it there is an intrinsic understanding that it is your own original content unless you specify otherwise. That means you absolutely did say it was your own by your omission of crediting other sources.

Sorry everyone for bringing this back up, but I just read the last 5 pages and this part really bugged me. We may now all return to hating Drop The Bomb and lamenting DDD.

Speaking of hating Drop The Bomb, the answer to the Dire Straits song is incorrect. The question is basically "Money for nothing and the ______ for free?" and the correct answer is "chicks," but the game wants "checks." I cannot stand trivia games with incorrect answers.

No that's not true if l watch a movie with my friends and l don't say that l didn't make it it automatically means that l explicitly say that it's mine?
Come on this argument is total crap and please DROP THE FUCKING SUBJECT.
Enough with copyright and shit, this is a medal thread!

I am probably gonna drop A LOT in the top medal points users because both of the games are bugged for me so l cannot get any medals right now....

This is from a PM conversation I had with the developer a few days ago.

As for the questions, I'll soon be releasing an update to add easier questions and better gameplay, since it seems that no one likes the game.

He IS fixing it up, and according to the post he is waiting for a new version to be approved. According to him he is having a bit of a hard time to try to fix the medals up.
So don't rag on him as hard as Dimz and Komix yet the game has had medals for only like what a day or two? Those games had/have had medals for a long time without being fixed.

that won't happen because either side will want to get the final word in. That's how it usually goes, but the better man would be the one who actually does drop the subject instead of adding more wood to the fire.

Speaking of Drop The Bomb, I've now earned 13 medals and received 11. I got 3 bombs in 3 spins, but I guess since they weren't the first 3 they didn't count, and I definitely survived 3 bomb rounds in a single game but didn't get the medal for it, presumably because they weren't consecutive? The five-question bomb one confuses me though: do you need to get 5 bomb rounds in a row, or is there a special bomb round that lasts 5 questions instead of 1?

For those who are wondering how I got the Marathon Grill medal, after you play the game long enough it starts glitching, giving you free questions at the start of the game that are worth $0. I played for a while like that, then refreshed and the game seemed fine. A few games after the refresh it just gave me endless questions in the same category (thankfully one I knew all the answers in) and eventually I got 25 in a row with $0 left over.

Also, I got Bonus Buster and Trump Card on the same game, so even though it doesn't show more than one on screen at a time, it can give more than one in a game. I basically stopped playing after my 10th spin, which happened to put me over 20,000, and though I was never notified of it I picked them both up. Now if you'll excuse me, my 290 new medal points and I need some well earned sleep.

Bomb rounds haven't a fixed amount of questions. Usually I get 2 questions in a bomb round, so yes, you need to survive a bomb round with 3 questions for the one and one bomb round with 5 questions for the other medal.

At least that what I get from their descritptions.

This guy wants to add medals to his game

But he doesn't know how to. If anybody here does know what he has to do they should pm him.
It's a good game and it seems like he'd definitely take care of any bugs and make sure the medals were fair.

In the meantime I think I'll probably start slipping down the list like life did. A lot of these new games just aren't cutting it. At least medals used to be time consuming and challenging or quick and kind of fun; now they're just time consuming and lame.

No, for one medal, you need to survive 3 different bomb rounds in the same game, for the other, you need to survive a bomb round with 5 questions.

Well sorry about that. With the subject on DtB I just assumed that you were talking about pacdude. Sorry about that.
And yah Seed of Destruction probably might end up like FUI2. Too bad in a way the game itself was actually good but there is a medal bug that he just refuses to fix and with the medal system still in the beta testing process those people need to be made examples of.

Sorry for double post missed this first time around.

You I got one like that too. It was how many buttons are on a standard Xbox 360 controller the choices are:
9 11 13
His answer is 11, but there is A, B, X, Y, LB, LT, RB, RT, Start, Back, Guide button, Right stick click and Left stick click...13
He says that according to his research the stick clicks don't count as buttons. You press down on them so I say they are buttons, but he says he's going to clarify the question so that's ok I guess.
