In addition to the prizes earned by beating AAA's challenges, players could earn extra prizes by participating in his cousin [[Lulu]]'s Neocash [[event]]. This year, Lulu awarded players with two extra prizes if they were able to complete at least two of AAA's challenges for a certain day.


==Trophies==
To participate, players had to buy Games Master Challenge NC Challenge tickets from the [[NC Mall]]. They could either by one ticket for 300 NC, which would allow the player to earn the bonus prizes from one day, or a pack of seven tickets for 1,300 NC, which would allow the player to try and earn all of Lulu's prizes.
At the end of the event, users were rewarded with trophies based on how many challenges that they had completed. Originally, the top level trophy was intended to be given only to those users who had completed all 35 challenges. However, a glitch involving the ''World Class Gamer'' challenge on Day 7 prevented some users from completing the challenge before the end of the event. Because of this, [[TNT]] decided it would allow users who only completed 34 challenges to also receive the top level trophy.
 
Each set of prizes was released at the same time as AAA's challenges for the corresponding day.
