The first ever '''Games Master Challenge''' was held between November 22, 2006, and November 30, 2006.  During this event, users were asked to complete twelve [[Games Room]] related challenges that were issued by [[Aristotle A. Avinroo]].  Completing these challenges rewarded users with randomly selected [[item]]s. The purpose of this event was to help familiarize users with the recently redesigned Games Room.  This event marked the first appearance of [[AAA]].


==The Challenges==
Five of the twelve challenges were "secret" challenges. These secret challenges did not include instructions for completing the challenge.  Instead, the instructions were only revealed after a user had completed the secret challenge. This encouraged users to work together to figure out the conditions for completing each of these secret challenges.
A total of 12 challenges were given by Aristotle A. Avinroo, 5 of which had unknown conditions and didn't show until they were completed (at which point a user could share how to receive them to another user). Tasks to complete these tasks ranged from submitting scores on certain games, sending flash challenge cards to people and arranging their ''Favourites''. Only 62 different games could be played for the challenge, called ''Qualifying Games'', of which a minimum of 50 points had to be submitted in every game. Also, flash challenge cards only counted for those 62 games.

Template:EventAnnual The first ever Games Master Challenge was held between November 22, 2006, and November 30, 2006. During this event, users were asked to complete twelve Games Room related challenges that were issued by Aristotle A. Avinroo. Completing these challenges rewarded users with randomly selected items. The purpose of this event was to help familiarize users with the recently redesigned Games Room. This event marked the first appearance of AAA.

Five of the twelve challenges were "secret" challenges. These secret challenges did not include instructions for completing the challenge. Instead, the instructions were only revealed after a user had completed the secret challenge.
