AAA returned to challenge Neopians again.

The second Games Master Challenge began on November 20, 2007 and ended on November 27, 2007. During each day of this event, Aristotle A. Avinroo set users five Games Room related challenges to complete.

Completing a challenge would reward users with an item. Unlike the previous year, the prizes were specific to each challenge and not random. Additionally, at the end of the event, users were awarded trophies based on how many challenges that they completed.

Challenges

Over the course of the Games Master Challenge, a new set of challenges were released each day. Each set of challenges had one Send Score Challenge - about sending a certain number of scores - one Game Challenge - about playing a particular game - one Random Challenge, one Secret Game Challenge, and one Theme Challenge - where AAA only hinted as to which games should be played.

There were some difference in the challenges depending on whether the player was in North America or not. On days three and six, the challenge for North American players included sponsored games.
