Hoverbot Arena took me a few hours to get all the medals. Are they ever going to be given back?

Save me the time of having to scroll through 3 pages?

Well, after reading everything, I think I understood why the thread advanced so fast without a single post related to a new medal game..so, the medal system was down for a while, everyone lost their medals and posted "HALP" posts, then some of the medals went back on, then PG posted here and said that some medals might not show in your profile but they will appear in the next "update"...did I miss anything?Oh yeah, the minor flame wars.
Also, now I feel good about not getting any of the FUI2 and HBA medals....well, just for the record, my score is exactly as it was before...

So does anyone have a list of which games' medals no longer count? FUi2, Hover Bot Arena, Bomb Diggity (? for some reason?)... It looks like they've been removed from all the medal games' pages, so it's hard for me to get a bead on it.

Deploy the... it's a yellow button... it's usually flashing... it makes the engines go... whoosh!

FUi2 and HBA for sure. I still have all but 10 of my other points. An unknown 10 seems fairly common. Bomb Diggity still works as far as i know

did you have the "Memoirs" medal from Time Fcuk? it's pretty safe to say it's points were removed, just like HBA and FUi2.

also sorry for being stupid in the last two pages.

Read the last page, Goldfish posted in it.
They are SUPPOSED to show in your profile, but not on the game page. They do not count towards your medal score.

Yes. I use this thread to update my page. And everyone uses it to come up with tips, clues and strategies to newly released games which in turn helps create walkthroughs and guides.

Ideally, that's what it's used for. I was talking about how 2 out of 3 posts in this thread are off-topic or completely unnecessary. They make this thread a pain to browse through. Couple that with the fact that so many people can't bother to read even the previous page, and things end up getting repeated over and over.

For example, I said on the previous page that the 10 missing points were most likely due to the "Memories" medal. On this page, 2 people ask about it (one right after the other) and someone has to restate what I already said.

And then there are posts like this:

When someone posts a link to a new medal game, is it really necessary for someone to reply "This is a new medal game"?

All I was saying is that, if we can't keep bullshit posts to a minimum, then we really don't need this thread.

It's necessary because people tend to post links and state they wish the medals were in the game.

What the fuck is wrong with delineation between medal link posts? It's just a few words, fucking serious..

Wow, that new game is a time consumer. Pretty hard game.

And to Duffle: A majority of this thread is made up of bullshit posts, there's nothing we can do about it.

I don't think the author has patched the game back up with the medal API and submitted it so the medals are still unattainable. The medal indicators on the game's page were probably accidentally thrown back up there because of the update. I still suggest people play the game anyways because it is a LOT of fun!

Yep, I think that also Dragon Boy medals are unattainable and if we can get it is like just winning secret medals because they don´t show.

Hrrrmmmm.. maybe I have to clear my data because I've already gotten all the medals in the game. I'll give it a shot later when I have time. Glad to know the author got the medal API to work with the game though! As for Dragon Boy I know nothing about it and probably won't play it until this weekend. Hope it's fun though!

I can't help feeling that this has something to do with the level/sharing API used it Time Fcuk. :3

I can't help but feeling you are right and that everyone should go look at Time Fcuk again >_>

Yes, because it's too much trouble to constantly support multiple versions of the portal, classic view is going to stay 100% classic and get none of the new api features. After looking at our database we found less than 0.1% of our members even use it. And since those few fear change so much... we'll keep you safe from new stuff >_>
