==Plot summaries==


He floats around in a special chair, bought for him by his mother; lives in his parents basement; and is humoured by his sister, [[Abigail]], who finds him somewhat amusing. He refers to himself as the "master of the Games Room", and is known for often his often egotistical behaviour. Despite claims that no one can possibly best him, he's built quite an anti-following of Neopets who'd like nothing more than to see this Blumaroo eat his words.
===Games Master Challenge===
 
According to his Neopedia entry, he is 14-years old, his IQ is "too high to count" (Or so he claims), and his interests are "Gaming, boasting, and challenging others".

Upon the release of the redesigned Games Room in November [[2006]], Aristotle decided to introduce the '''Games Master Challenge''', an event in which he would create and present various challenges in the [[Games Room]] for user to beat.
Upon the release of the redesigned Games Room, Aristotle set users a selection of gaming related challengers on a number of qualifying Flash Games. There were twelve challenges, five of which had hidden terms that were not revealed until the challenge was completed. Challenges included sending a score on a set number of of games, sending a challenge card, sending multiple challenge cards, and adding a game to the users favourite games list.  
 
With AAA's decision to retire from the event in 2011, the event has primarily been split into two eras, the '''Pre-Modern''' and '''Modern''' formats.
 
==== Pre-modern format ([[2006]]-[[2010]]) ====
 
In the original [[Games Master Challenge]], there were twelve challenges created by AAA, five of which had hidden terms that were not revealed until the challenge was completed.
 
Completion of each of the challenges earned the user a random prize, varying in use and rarity given the challenge.
 
The event primarily operated the much like the [[Daily Dare]] until [[2011]], when changed the format of the event.


==== Modern format ([[2011]]-Present) ====
Completion of each of the challenges earned the user a random prize, but all the challenges had to be completed in 8 days of the plot's release. Originally, this was going to be a day less, but was extended because users under 13 (without parental permission) were having technical difficulties with the challenges.


In 2011, Aristotle had decided to change the format of the event and instead make it a team based event.
Games Master Challenge returned every November until the last competition in 2013. From [[Games Master Challenge 2011|2011]], the Games Master Challenges were themed as team competitions: Brains vs Brawn, [[Games Master Challenge 2012|Pirates vs. Ninjas]], and [[Games Master Challenge 2013|Sun vs Moon]].  


===== Brains Vs. Brawns =====
===Daily Dare===
{{Main|Games Master Challenge/Brains Vs. Brawns}}
 
In [[2011]], AAA had selected a competitive theme for the event, ''Brains Vs. Brawns''. In this event, AAA represented [[Team Brains]], and his sister, [[Abigail]], represented [[Team Brawns]].
 
===== Pirates Vs. Ninjas =====
{{Main|Games Master Challenge/Pirates Vs. Ninjas}}
 
In [[2012]], Aristotle had officially retired from the event, now yearly selecting teams to compete against one another and remained as a host. This year, the chosen theme was ''Pirates Vs. Ninjas'', with [[Captain Three Legs]] representing [[Team Pirate]], and the [[Techo Master]] representing [[Team Ninja]].
 
===== Sun Vs. Moon =====
{{Main|Games Master Challenge/Sun Vs. Moon}}
 
In [[2013]], the event was once again hosted by AAA, with the chosen theme being '''Sun Vs. Moon'''. [[Siyana]] represented [[Team Sun]], and [[Luna]] represented [[Team Moon]].
 
=== Daily Dare ===
{{Main|Daily Dare}}
{{Main|Daily Dare}}


Following the success of the [[Games Master Challenge]], Aristotle has decided to present a new challenge to Neopia: '''The Daily Dare'''. Along with his sister [[Abigail]], Aristotle would be able to challenge gamers across Neopia to prove once and for all that he was the best.
Every day for the month of March, in 2007, Aristotle challenged users to beat his score in a differing game each day. Additionally, his sister Abigail also laid down a lower score that users could challenge if they wished to, instead of Aristotle's. The user did not need to stick to one or the other's score to challenge in each of the different games - they could challenge AAA's score one day and his sisters the next, for example, should they wish to.  
 
==== [[2007]] ====
{{Main|Daily Dare/2007}}
 
AAA appears as a challenger in the first Daily Dare, presenting 31 game-related challenges and awarding prizes.
 
==== [[2008]] ====
{{Main|Daily Dare/2008}}
 
Unlike the previous year, [[Abigail]] and AAA did not set up the Daily Dare and present challenges to players. Rather, the pair was kidnapped by [[King Roothless]] and forced to play games in his dungeon, only to be freed if enough players could beat their scores.
 
Much like the last year, for 31 prizes were awarded by Aristotle for the month of March to those who managed to beat his score.
 
==== [[2009]] ====
{{Main|Daily Dare/2009}}
 
After having had recovered from the previous year, AAA appears yet again to hast the 2009 Daily Dare. This time, however, the duration of the event is only 30 days and thus Aristotle only awards 30 prizes.
 
==== [[2010]] ====
{{Main|Daily Dare/2010}}
 
Aristotle returns for the 2010 Daily Dare, once again hosting the event as the "hard" challenge with his sister [[Abigail]]
 
For this year, the event lasted a total of 32 days, and thus 32 prizes were awarded for beating AAA's scores.
 
==== [[2011]] ====
{{Main|Daily Dare/2011}}
 
Aristotle appears once more in the 2011 Daily Dare, awarding 31 prizes for 31 days to those who can beat her scores.
 
==== [[2012]] ====
{{Main|Daily Dare/2012}}
 
This year, the Daily Dare was to be held in the newly re designed games room, but pretty soon things went wrong. When [[King Roo]] goes missing, and [[Roo Island]] becomes swarmed by mysterious bugs, [[Abigail]], AAA and [[Lulu]] set out too restore peace to island and save the Daily Dare.
 
This year, Aristotle was given a redesign which changed hix primary look, now sporting new clothing much like his sister. The duration of the event was greatly shortened, and with this change, Aristotle awards only 27 prizes.
 
==== [[2013]] ====
{{Main|Daily Dare/2013}}


With the events of the [[Obelisk War]] having taken place, AAA had decided to delay the Daily Dare until the dust settles. Unfortunately, with the [[Altador Cup]] occurring earlier this year, Aristotle is forced to delay the Daily Dare until mid-Summer, coincidentally during his yearly visit to [[Camp Wannamakeagame]].
Completion of each day's challenge awarded the user with a prize. The prize items were solely released in conjunction with this plot, unlike the Games Master Challenge.  


This year, Abigail is left to host the Daily Dare with her brother's self-centered classmate, [[Chadley]].
Additionally, there were additional prizes available for beating AAA at each game on their day of release, for beating AAA or Abigail at each game on their day of release, for defeating AAA at all of his games by the end of the challenge, and for defeating AAA or Abigail at all of the games by the end of the challenge. [[Lulu]], AAA's cousin, introduced a [[Neocash]] part of the event.


Near the end of the event, Aristotle returns and ultimately replaces Chadley. Following the trend of the previous year, the event was greatly shortened to 20 primary days, and thus only 20 prizes were awarded in his name, 17 by Chadley and 3 by Aristotle.
Daily Dare returned every year until the last competition in 2013. In [[Daily Dare 2008|2008]], AAA and Abigail were kidnapped during the competition by [[King Roothless]]. In [[Daily Dare 2012|2012]], it coincided with another new design of the Games Room, and AAA inadvertently caused [[Roo Island]] to be overrun by bugs - literally [[Petpetpet]]s. In [[Daily Dare 2013|2013]], AAA was at summer camp, and Abigail had to enlist [[Chadley]]'s help to run the event.

Beginning in July 2009, Aristotle challenged users to beat his score in each new game that was released, and a new challenge begins approximately every week or two.

"This thing isn't easy to fly, you know."

Upon the release of the redesigned Games Room, Aristotle set users a selection of gaming related challengers on a number of qualifying Flash Games. There were twelve challenges, five of which had hidden terms that were not revealed until the challenge was completed. Challenges included sending a score on a set number of of games, sending a challenge card, sending multiple challenge cards, and adding a game to the users favourite games list.

Completion of each of the challenges earned the user a random prize, but all the challenges had to be completed in 8 days of the plot's release. Originally, this was going to be a day less, but was extended because users under 13 (without parental permission) were having technical difficulties with the challenges.

Games Master Challenge returned every November until the last competition in 2013. From 2011, the Games Master Challenges were themed as team competitions: Brains vs Brawn, Pirates vs. Ninjas, and Sun vs Moon.

Daily Dare

Main article: Daily Dare

Every day for the month of March, in 2007, Aristotle challenged users to beat his score in a differing game each day. Additionally, his sister Abigail also laid down a lower score that users could challenge if they wished to, instead of Aristotle's. The user did not need to stick to one or the other's score to challenge in each of the different games - they could challenge AAA's score one day and his sisters the next, for example, should they wish to.

Completion of each day's challenge awarded the user with a prize. The prize items were solely released in conjunction with this plot, unlike the Games Master Challenge.

Additionally, there were additional prizes available for beating AAA at each game on their day of release, for beating AAA or Abigail at each game on their day of release, for defeating AAA at all of his games by the end of the challenge, and for defeating AAA or Abigail at all of the games by the end of the challenge. Lulu, AAA's cousin, introduced a Neocash part of the event.

Daily Dare returned every year until the last competition in 2013. In 2008, AAA and Abigail were kidnapped during the competition by King Roothless. In 2012, it coincided with another new design of the Games Room, and AAA inadvertently caused Roo Island to be overrun by bugs - literally Petpetpets. In 2013, AAA was at summer camp, and Abigail had to enlist Chadley's help to run the event.
