stay away from games! *glitch!*

Sat Aug 07, 2004 7:28 pm

you can play games as many times as you can today and get np for them. Be careful!

COOL!!! *cough* I mean, Bad bad bad.

Uh oh! I played the new kreludor game again, because I thought that I got the RE that let me play for another three times! :( I am scared! Someone hold me!

How often do they freeze for something like that? Silly question, right?

It seems to have remembered my single play on Escape to Kreludor, but doesn't remember my two plays of Destructo-Match. Odd, if you ask me.

Sat Aug 07, 2004 8:26 pm

oooh, no. I played ultimate bullseye and lots of other gamse. Am I gonna get frozen?

Sat Aug 07, 2004 8:28 pm

just not more than 3 times each and you should be safe

:hug: Sorry, mocha_san, but that's the best I could do.

Dilemma: Do you write them to tell them of the glitch, pointing out the fact that you thought you had gotten the random event, and therefore played it 6 times instead of 3? Or do you not say anything and hope (*fingers crossed*) for the best?

The advantage of the first option is that you are telling them up front about it, just in case they had decided to freeze you. But the disadvantage of the first option is that you are also calling attention to yourself--i.e., if you hadn't said anything, maybe they wouldn't have noticed--but because you did, who knows what they might do.

Tough choice.

Has anyone actually been frozen for taking advantage of glitches though? How would TNT track people who did that down?

Sat Aug 07, 2004 8:39 pm

yeah, tough choice indeed :D but i don't trust them so it's easy choice for me should i encounter the same situation. leave glitch reporting to others.

If you did take a chance and get frozen, I would have no shop to look at with Fire Faerie Doll to idolize.
(I don't really idolize it, I just think of the day I may be able to afford one)

think of it this way, either route you choose, you are taking a chance. ;)

Well, it was a glitch that got me, and all they said for it was that I cheated at the flash games. And how they'd know? I have no clue.. I think they mostly freeze at random, or just see who's played that game an odd number of times and randomly freeze them, even if they had gotten the RE for free plays.

As for reporting it? Like Morningstar said, that is a lose/lose situation.

In my opinion, it isn't a matter of "Well, if everybody's doing it, how can I possibly get frozen?" Just because everybody's doing it (Flash Games -- my anti-drug :lol: ) doesn't mean it's right. Even if you know you won't get frozen for playing the games, it's not right.

Wow, that didn't quite make much sense. And neither did that.

I played Kreludan Minging Corp and a few other games more than three times --- but I didn't send the score --- and didn't even know about the glitch, I was just playing for fun. Do you think I could get frozen?
