Bubble Blaster - A PSP High Score Contest - **GOTCHA**

Archive: 44 posts


Bubble Blaster
** Not a real contest. Happy April Fools' Day! **




Welcome to the first ever round of the Bubble Blaster LBP PSP High Score contest! The concept is simple:


Obtain the highest score on any LBP PSP level. Ever.


Do you consider yourself a bubble bulimic? Are you a scandalous score scavenger? Do visions of sugar plum prize bubbles dance in your head? If so, this contest is for you! The person who gets the highest overall score on any LBP PSP level wins. That's it!

Find a community level with an unlimited score bubble emitter or, better yet, make your own! The only rule is that the highest score wins.



How do I enter?
Simply upload a screenshot or a video of your ultimate top score and post it here. It's really that simple.



The Rules Can't you read? I just said that the highest score wins!
The level you play is entirely up to you. It can be a story mode level, a community level, or even one you create yourself.
Scores can be obtained by any means you see fit. Score bubble emitters, ridiculously long race gates that you leave running while you go to school or work, and huge pits full of prize bubbles are all perfectly acceptable.
You can submit as many entries per round as you like although of course only your highest score will count. If someone tops your score, post another entry and top theirs!
Participants cannot win twice in a row. This means that if you win this round, you can't win the next one. If you won the last one, you can't win this one. You can still participate of course, but just for fun.
To enter the contest, simply post a picture or video in this thread.
Read the disclaimer. Yes, we have a disclaimer. Read it I say, or I'll tell you that the word "gullible" isn't in the dictionary!



The Prizes
I am proud to announce our best contest prize package yet! The contest winner will receive a full set of LBP PSP downloadable costumes for FREE!!! Costumes include: The Gardens costume pack (bonnet, Elizabethan hat, fancy moustache, Elizabethan doublet, Elizabethan dress, Elizabethan trousers, white ruff)
The Savannah costume pack (lion mane, lion ears, lion nose, cat eyes, lion tail)
The Wedding costume pack (red wig, mini top hat, wedding veil, bow tie, white wedding dress)
The Canyons costume pack (seniorita wig, sombrero hat, long moustache, lace trim dress, red poncho)
The Metropolis costume pack (afro wig, mirror sunglasses, dollar chain, tracksuit bottoms, tracksuit top)
The Islands costume pack (wooden wig, ninja scarf, red kimono)



The Deadline
The deadline for this contest is 11:59pm APRIL 2ND, 2010 Greenwich Mean Time (http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/info/current-time.htm). Your entry must be received BEFORE MIDNIGHT GMT on the 2nd or it will be considered late. For shame!



The Judges

"Prize Poacher" Taffey
"Bubble Bobble" jeffcu28



Why are you doing this?
Why not? I think this kind of contest might help push people outside of their comfort zones a little bit and try something annoying they hadn't thought of before. I'm also eager to see how much people are willing to put up with, and of course I just like seeing the surprising and creative things people will exclaim as of the contest's conclusion. The real reason I'm doing this, however, is that I just want to see the LBP PSP community grow, learn, and be messed with.



The Disclaimer
By participating in this contest, you agree that you are quite easily fooled by silly fake contests thought up during Taffey's lunch hour. You agree that you have been sent to the hardware store to look for metric hammers and left-handed pipe wrenches while your friends had a good laugh at your expense. You confirm that it hasn't dawned on you that all the prizes listed are, in fact, already free and that by "winning" this contest you will be providing the LBP PSP community a good deal of amusement. Simply posting an entry will cause muted giggling throughout the ranks of most LBPC members, and it may cause milk or soda to come out of my nose if timed properly. If you are still reading this disclaimer, that means I haven't fooled you so congratulations for that. You are, however, now obligated to spend the rest of the afternoon balancing an orange on top of your head, and you must legally change your name to "Ruprecht".

But an interesting one no doubt! I know not everyone is into the create side, so I thought I'd do something for people more into gameplay and going for high scores.




OOOOO! I love this contest! Can I pout some scorpians in my level!!!1!!1

I'll start my entry tomorrow! Heh, scorpians officially ALLOWED! It may not be the fastest way to rack up multipliers but perhaps the most entertaining.

Wait, who's the winner? everyone with a highscore? if so, than I'm winning on my own "Solid Journey" level, and it consists of a race gate! 2010-04-01 21:58:00

Wait, who's the winner? everyone with a highscore? if so, than I'm winning on my own "Solid Journey" level, and it consists of a race gate! Good question - I probably could have been clearer about that. :blush:

It's the highest overall score from any level. So, say I score 1,500 on The Right Stuffing and then you score 1,700 on Solid Journey, you win. Make sense? If I want to beat you, I'd have to replay my level or find another that allows a higher top score.

Oh, what's this? A spontaneous contest cooked up during lunch hour, I see. I love those prizes . Got my head scratching before I read the disclaimer! I may just have to make the pool of point bubbles larger on my "Anti-H4H Scorpians" level, or maybe make a never-ending point bubble waterfall. The lag will be so sweet that even if the point bubbles stop, the score counter will keep on going!

Fooled,
jeffcu28

EDIT: Oh, and I just realized the absurdity of this contest even more. Haha. It's gonna be hard judging the winner!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry if I put to many "Ha"s above, but after reading the disclaimer, I started cracking up in real life.
My little sister asked why I was laughing so loud, then she came and said she didn't care anymore.

Anyways, you got me!

Yes, absolutely. You'll have to be careful though because the multiplier flips from 99x back around to 1x. It's all about the high score! 2010-04-01 22:50:00

It's funny, because the costumes are already free, so no point!

Thanks for the laugh Taffey!

This level has 4 emitters, emitting 1 bubble(10 points) every tenth of a sec. All together, it gives you 1,000 points every 2 sec.

Yet, It still takes an hour to get 1,000,000 points(wout multiplier).

Ok, ok. April 1st is long gone, so it's time for me to say.... GOTCHA!!!

Of course, most (all?) of you already know that this was a fake contest I put together just for lulz. In case you missed the fine print, here's the disclaimer from the bottom of the contest:

I thought it was even funnier that you were still trying to get the high score just for grins.

LOL, I just noticed that that I got seriously owned by a so obvious fake contest, that I didn't notice was fake until I remembered that the costumes were free. I usually buy the level packs, so that's probably why I hardly remember the costumes were free. I should have read the first posts. Gosh, I'm hitting myself so many times in the head right now.2010-04-03 09:10:00

Side-Note: This has gone from a joke to a Spam Can in disguise if you ask me. A mods bound to lock this, so how about we request a lock here? Either that, or let's keep posting before the mods come.

Don't make me use the Blue Hotline.

*Serious face on.*

Technically, this section's for contest only. This was a joke made on April's Fool Day, so it was accepted. Seeing that we passed that day however, this thread is no longer meeting requirements to be here, because this is not an actual contest. So that is why I'm saying that this is turning into a Spam Can in disguise; nothing we post here is meeting requirements for this to be a contest thread.

*Serious face off.*

Blue Hotline? You wouldn't dare! Not while I'm the one who pays for your phone service! :kz:
