jcpet Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Anyone playing this week? This is my first time playing. Trying for the avatar. It's some luck and chance game this week - Dice of Destiny. Seriously been playing for the last 3.5 hours and my highest score is 610. Are the scores for Better Than You usually ridiculously high/hard to beat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icedragonair Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Hahaha, I was trying this one too (I like the game) and ended up with exactly the same score as my high score 565. Its really mostly luck. Last weeks was pretty easy (faerie caves II), you could just look up the walk-through. Some of them are more or less okay, some are like "get a score the same as the top 10 users". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamppost Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 In my experience, they are tough. Last week was the first time I attempted it, and it was only because it was such an easy game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ysera Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Since you got 610, does that automatically guarantee you a trophy since the score to beat is 600? I tried playing several times today but my highest was 595. Sigh. Will try again tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried playing several times today but my highest was 595. Sigh. Will try again tomorrow. Even though it (the site) has registered that you have beaten the score before, you do need to do it again. Probably not only because there are tiers of trophies - if you didn't have to do it again, it would be impossible to get one for someone who did not beat the needed score before the game was featured in BTY.

Nicole C Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I have played it so many times, but I never once gotten near the required score (naturally not able to score in games so I can forget about game avatars as well :( ). It really is quite tough to beat it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildbreeze Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Sometimes they're far tougher than others. I've checked up on it every week for the past couple of months, and I like the challenge. :) But some of them do just seem impossible. :P Good luck, I doubt I'll be getting this week's challenge.

Also wondering... do you have to beat the score, or can you make it a tie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icedragonair Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Its a tie I think, that's usually what its like. Not sure though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrtbrk Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 They aren't always this tough. Challenges are often easier at the start of the month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcpet Posted December 13, 2012 Author Share Posted December 13, 2012 They aren't always this tough. Challenges are often easier at the start of the month. And by start of the month you mean the first week? Haha, this is only the second one released this month! I guess this one is particularly difficult because it's luck/chance D: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said "often easier" not that it is a for sure thing :P A new challenge is released every Wednesday at news time, so be on the prowl and get that avatar!!! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angiekins Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I gave up completely, it's all based on luck and I don't have any of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must've mislooked. I could've sworn it was 600.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jurassicshark Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 I LOVE Dice of Destiny! My high score is only 535 though - so I'd only be playing for my enjoyment. xD Wildbreeze 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dummydumpty Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 I gave up completely, it's all based on luck and I don't have any of it. That's pretty much me. Highest I scored was 585. I already have the bronze trophy, but I wanted to try for the silver one (by the time I got to the game, there were no slots for the gold one).

jcpet Posted December 15, 2012 Author Share Posted December 15, 2012 I tied at 625. This is really sad. I only needed 5 more points. And the high score list looks highly suspicious. How are people getting 800's? You need like 300 bonus points to get that high, which is equal to at least 30 bonus rolls, and the probability of getting 10 bonus points for each roll is rather low.

You play. A lot. Its a game of chance, therefore the more you play the higher the odds that you will eventually get a ridiculous amount of good rolls.
