The eighth annual [[Games Master Challenge]] began on November 25, 2013 and concluded on December 2, 2013.  As with previous events, each day users were given [[Games Room]] related challenges to complete. This year, the theme of the event was Sun vs Moon. Users could either join Team Sun, lead by [[Siyana]], or Team Moon, lead by [[Princess Lunara]].  The challenges issued to each user differed depending on which team they joined.
For the first time since 2009, [[Lulu]] did not appear in conjunction with this event. Instead, players could visit [[Reslen]]'s planetarium in the [[NC Mall]].

*Several of [[Siyana]]'s image files associated with the event refer to her as ''Amira'', indicating that [[Princess Amira]] was to be the leader of ''Team Sun'' originally. It is speculated that Siyana was put into the event late in it's development due to the quality of her artwork.<ref><small>[http://images.neopets.com/games/gmc/2013/popup_amira.png <nowiki>http://images.neopets.com/games/gmc/2013/popup_amira.png</nowiki>] Images such as this one read 'Amira' but display 'Siyana'.</small></ref>
== Behind the scenes ==


== References ==
Judging by the file names of [[Siyana]]'s images - e.g. ''<nowiki>http://images.neopets.com/games/gmc/2013/popup_amira.png</nowiki>'' - the original leader of Team Sun was meant to be [[Princess Amira]].
