Games Master Challenge 2011

The sixth installment of the Games Master Challenge began on November 21, 2011. That year, the siblings were being more competitive than usual, asking the Neopian players to choose a side, either being a Brain, siding with AAA, or a Brawn siding with Abigail.

The event started with an argument in the news dated 22 November 2011 with AAA's words written in red and Abigail's in blue. In it, the two siblings argue over whether brains or brawn is more important and, to settle the debate, AAA issues a Games Master Challenge.

With the announcement of the end of the event on 30 November 2011 and the victory of Team Brains AAA and Abigail had another conversation in the news of that date announcing the prizes and AAA's victory.

Teams

In order to participate in this event, users were required to join one of the below listed teams. As a reward for joining a team, users were given an exclusive signup bonus item corresponding to the team that they choose.

Team	Description	Signup Bonus
Team Brains (AAA)	Oh good! You can help me prove my brilliance - I mean, our brilliance. Intelligence is really underrated these days, especially by certain people. Let's trounce them utterly, shall we?	Root for Brains Wooden Sign
Team Brawn (Abigail)	Oh brother. AAA is all fired up about this brains vs. brawn thing. I just want to play some games. Since my brother won't listen to reason, let's beat him just to prove how lame he is.	Root for Brawn Wooden Sign

Challenges

Each day there are challenges that the player is expected to complete. Final prizes are generally better if the player completes the challenge on the day it is issued. Because the challenges are a competition this year, they are different depending on which team the player chose with Team Brain playing logic and puzzle type games and Team Brawn playing action and adventure games.

Below are the daily challenges players were expected to complete. Challenges are labeled as either Brain, Brawn, or B+B (both).

NC Mall Participation

As with many of the site events released since the creation of the NC Mall, there is a NC part to this event, featuring AAA and Abigail's cousin, Lulu, who has come to visit. She decides that she'll take advantage of their distraction in the challenge to sneak into their rooms and run off with some of their possessions. If a player purchased a key for one or both of the rooms from the Mall for 700 NC each, they would be able to sneak in with Lulu each day of the event and grab a unique item for that day. Below is a list of those items.

Bonus Plays

While it was only necessary for players to complete each challenge once, they could earn various prizes and more points for their team by doing each challenge another four times. The prize awarded for completing these bonus plays was random but included notable items such as a Genius Negg and Strength Serum, several different books with either brainy or brawny topics, exercise equipment, and various food items.

Final Rewards

Final prizes and trophies were awarded based on a player's participation in the event. Though the prizes awarded were the same regardless of which team a player joined, their trophy reflects the team, with a brain on a pedestal or cup for Team Brains and a victorious fist over a trophy cup or pedestal for Team Brawn. Players who joined Team Brains were awarded a special bonus prize, Brains vs. Brawn Frame and members of Team Brawn were given a Fabulous Paper Cone Hat. Additionally, to players who finished each challenge on the day it was released, the Brains vs. Brawn Stamp was awarded, regardless of their team membership.

Prizes were awarded as follows, each level receiving the prize for their level and all levels numerically below theirs, so level two gets both the level two and level one prizes.

Level	Requirement	Prize
Level 1	Complete 1 Challenge	Super Food Platter
Level 2	Complete 5 Challenges	Brain & Brawn - Working Together
Level 3	Complete 10 Challenges	Quill Sword
