Team FIRE over here! Anyone else? :happydance: :dance:

 

Also... I finished my two challenges for the day! Today was super easy.

Team Fire! Already off to a great start, here's hoping the challenges stay this easy.

Team Fire as well! Sounds like there are a few of us already.

Team Fire seems to be the popular choice (and therefore most likely to win), but I just had to join Team Snow... I love Taelia  <3

I have chosen to join Team Fire, as I love summer more than winter :)

I chose Team Snow! I had my 4 year old choose my team lol. I was so undecided so I asked her which she liked better fire or snow, and of course she said snow. :)

I've already completed today's challenges and hopefully I can actually complete all the challenges this year. :)

After a ton of debating, I decided to go with Team Snow. 

 

Today's challenges were easy :D

I chose Team Fire. Magma Blaster is NOT that easy on a laptop without an actual mouse. Took me a few tries but I got it!

Does the team you choose have an impact on what games you can play? I don't know anything about this challenge :* I want to choose team fire,  because warmth! :shiftyeyes_anim:

 

Edit: After looking at the guide (woot, I get there eventually :woot: ) I answer my own question!

In the FAQs, it says the games will be geared towards the team themes.

The scores are also super easy to achieve either way.

 

But do keep in mind that timed challenges are returning this year!

Yeah, I think it's likely not worth me signing up for this, neither of the 2 games in the current challenge are ones my MS-adled brain can manage. I've tried snow wars before and was megafail at it, and having to quickly choose between 6 different number keys for magma blaster isn't something I'll be able to manage without my brain shorting out, so they're both a big NOPE from me, lol.

 

Hmm, there's likely to be some kind of something for joining up and at least doing something though, isn't there. A participation prize, even if it's not much, right?

I believe you can get the score for Magma Blaster after the first or second round. They will only alternate between pressing 1 and 2.

 

There certainly is a participation prize as well as a trophy so you should try your best :D The prizes are usually very cheap and easy to pick up if something catches your eye on a game you don't have much luck in.

 

Since this is GMC, the scores and challenges are very low and (usually) nothing major to stress over.

I think I'm heading for Team Snow because I'm in So California and I miss winter. 

I think you should totally sign up and try the games you can so you can at least get a participation trophy.

I just signed up for team fire, but I'm not sure how good I'm going to be at this. I'm just excited there's another activity to take me out of the doldrums of dailies and customization.

Team Fire for me too! It's cold and I miss the summer weather!  :laughingsmiley:

Oh and just a heads up I don't know if its a glitch or not but on the neoboards they point out that there are actually three spaces for check marks on the progress page not just the two challenges on the main page for today. Some are saying that you need to play the opposite sides challenge to get the third mark. Although to me it looks more like a play x number of qualifying games in the icon. 

Go Team Snow!

 

I lost much interest in Neopets since I got a job promotion, which involves working over night. However, I cannot miss the opportunity to support a team in GMC. ;)

Oh! Ok, I might give it a go then. *gulps*

I chose team Snow without hesitating, but I agree with whoever it was that said Team Fire is probably going to win.  It just seems like the more popular choice.  

Although I prefer the heat to cold, I chose team Snow. It just seemed more my style. But it did take me a few tries to figure out snow wars though. I'm definitely not a "gamer".  :laughingsmiley:

team snow!!!

the cold never bothered me anyway :)

So I just tried playing snow wars and sending a score of 45+ (I chose team fire) in and it did change my third bubble on the day 1 progress to the 'completed' colour.

 

Also, what was the joining up prize for the snow team? For fire, I got 'flames'  

I got a snowflake for joining team snow but I haven't looked at it in my inventory yet. The third bubble is definitely for playing the other team's game today although when I did magma blaster I only achieved a score of 56 (trackpad issues) and I still registered the gold check.
