Secre Posted May 28, 2012 Posted May 28, 2012 ...that the 'Featured game' doesn't seem to be all that random anymore? It's been on Extreme Herder three times recently, Solitaire and Pyramids a lot and a couple of others. Or it just me going craaaaaaaaaaaazy? :baaasmiley: Quote
Ashbash Posted May 28, 2012 Posted May 28, 2012 I noticed that Pyramids and Solitaire are on it a lot but I never noticed Extreme Herder. Quote
Rebecca~ Posted May 28, 2012 Posted May 28, 2012 Yeah, it definitely isn't just random. Some games seem to never be on there, while I have seen quite a it of Kass Basher as well (though, I doubt there are many people that would complain about that!) Quote
Saxen Posted May 28, 2012 Posted May 28, 2012 I've noticed it's been Pyramids quite a few times :/ Hmmm... Quote
Secre Posted May 28, 2012 Author Posted May 28, 2012 It's not just me then! That's a relief! It does seem odd though... Quote
Ashbash Posted May 28, 2012 Posted May 28, 2012 It still could be totally random and those just happen to be getting picked. I doubt it though haha. Quote
Lydia Trebond Posted May 28, 2012 Posted May 28, 2012 I think they try and put equal flash and non-flash games (or some type of ratio) and since there are really only a couple of non-flash games that can be reasonably doubled, you see a lot more pyramids and solitaire than you would otherwise think. Not everyone on Neopets has access to flash, so I think it's great. Quote
lovedwallflower Posted May 28, 2012 Posted May 28, 2012 i never take any notice of the featured game lol.. most of the time its not one im good at so i just click straight to favourites Quote
Sendryl Posted May 28, 2012 Posted May 28, 2012 Is it just me, or was it a lot more random in times past? I was surprised to see it was Pyramids again yesterday. For some reason I'm thinking that this repeating feature (haha) hasn't been around that long. Quote
eightbitdimwit Posted May 28, 2012 Posted May 28, 2012 It's a conspiracy. They don't like me having that Pyramids gold, so they're trying to get everyone to win it so mine won't be so special. :sad02: Quote
Bodhi Posted May 30, 2012 Posted May 30, 2012 Yep, I noticed that too. I thought it was only certain games that got the F.G. treatment. lol Quote
chiaroscruo Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 I remember six or seven years ago it used to be completely random. I almost never saw a game repeated. So yeah, you're probably right. They didn't used to make non flash games featured though so I guess that's an improvement for some people. I didn't actually know there were players without flash. Since it's free I assumed everyone had it. Guess that'll teach me not to assume. Quote
skylee Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 i've always felt like pyramids and solitaire were on there a lot. but i've never really payed attention to other games. Quote
I Love My Cats! Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 Yeah, it definitely isn't just random. Some games seem to never be on there, while I have seen quite a it of Kass Basher as well (though, I doubt there are many people that would complain about that!) You know, everyone keeps talking about how easy Kass Basher is, and I tried it the other day for like 30 mins and could not get over 200! Me + flash games = :( My fiance made fun of me this morning when he saw my 'high score' on the side of his screen. I have noticed that about Extreme Herder since that is on my favorites list (since like 2005 haha). Quote

For some reason I'm thinking that this repeating feature (haha) hasn't been around that long. I definitely remember it as being far more random in times gone by and the repeating of games has only recently impinged upon my brain!

If you're only using the first bat thing then that makes sense - you can only get the higher scores if you've unlocked the later bats. Then it's easy! Quote

Then it's easy! Yes, I am only on the second bat. But, I am so incompetent that I can't even get access to the best bat (I haven't even come close)! Haha, I'll just have to try again another day, part of my problem with flash games is my lack of patience. Quote

The second one is always the one that gives me the most trouble if I'm on a new computer if that makes you feel any better!! All you need to remember is to wait for the wind to hit 9 before hitting, hold the left button down as it's going up and then lose as it's coming down (the wings in allow it to fly higher and flapping as it comes down means it glides further!!)

lexielu22 Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 yah i noticed that too....... and i dont like it :sad02: Quote
tamashiiresonance Posted June 1, 2012 Posted June 1, 2012 I noticed that too! I don't really mind... I'll play the featured game every day no matter what it is (2x np is pretty cool) but maybe some variety would be nice. Quote

I kind of want to cry when I delete my history and have to re-unlock the bat. :( Once you have the at though, getting 1000NP a game is no sweat. Quote

Haha, I will have to give it another try because I am all about an easy 3000 NPs per day :) Quote
