2011's competition pit Brains against Brawn.

The sixth annual instalment of the Games Master Challenge began on November 21, 2011 and ended on November 30, 2011.

As in previous years, Aristotle A. Avinroo challenged players to complete Games Room-related tasks each day of the event. However, the format of the challenge was different this year: there were two teams, Brains and Brawn, competing with each other to see who could complete more challenges. Players could choose which of the teams to join.

The two teams received some different challenges to each other: Team Brains, led by AAA, received more puzzle and strategy game challenges, while Team Brawn, led by Abigail, received more action and adventure game challenges. This was the first time Abigail had featured in the Games Master Challenge events.

Teams

In order to participate in this event, users were required to join one of the below listed teams. As a reward for joining a team, users were given an exclusive signup bonus item corresponding to the team that they choose.
