The [[Games Master Challenge]] was a gaming [[Plot]] held between November 22, 2006, and November 30, 2006, requiring users to complete certain challenges given by [[Aristotle A. Avinroo]] within the games of [[Neopets]] for special points. Used as means to get users accustomed to the new design of the [[Games Room]].
During this event, AAA challenged users to complete twelve Games Room related challenges. Completing these challenges rewarded users with randomly selected [[item]]s. 
 
Aristotle A. Avinroo would return in future [[Games Master Challenge]]s and the [[Daily Dare]] competitions.
 
==Challenges==
 
The player could complete the twelve challenges in any order. Challengers were worth more points the harder they were to complete.
 
Five of the twelve challenges were "secret" challenges. These secret challenges did not include instructions for completing the challenge - only when a player had completed it did they find out what it was. This encouraged users to work together to figure out the conditions for completing the 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 ''Favorites''. Only 62 different games could be played for the challenge, called ''Qualifying Games'', of which a minimum of 50 points nust be submitted in every game. Also, flash challenge cards only counted for those 62 games. The Qualifying Games for the challenge were...

This challenge was AAA's first appearance.

The first ever Games Master Challenge was held between November 22, 2006, and November 30, 2006. It helped players become familiar with the redesigned Games Room, and introduced Aristotle A. Avinroo, self-proclaimed master gamer.

During this event, AAA challenged users to complete twelve Games Room related challenges. Completing these challenges rewarded users with randomly selected items.

Aristotle A. Avinroo would return in future Games Master Challenges and the Daily Dare competitions.

Challenges[edit]

The player could complete the twelve challenges in any order. Challengers were worth more points the harder they were to complete.

Five of the twelve challenges were "secret" challenges. These secret challenges did not include instructions for completing the challenge - only when a player had completed it did they find out what it was. This encouraged users to work together to figure out the conditions for completing the secret challenges.
