I just bought me a ticket!
What do I do now?

**count100** · 07-20-2009, 07:55 PM

The object of this contest is to complete A Link to the Past with the least amount of items and hearts as possible.

The list of items you must NOT get while still completing the game:
*Tempered and Gold Sword
*Neither the Red or Mirror Shield
*Neither the Blue nor Red Mail
*Boomerang
*Mushroom/Magic Powder
*Bombos
*Bug Catching Net
*All four Bottles
*Cane of Byrna
*Magic Cape
*Skip all 24 Heart Pieces and the Heart Container at the Sanctuary. Beat the game with a total of 13 hearts.
*Double Magic Meter

You may use ArcadeOX Fullmode with save states. To prove you have done this simply take a video of you beating Ganon. You must go to your item screen at least once in the video. To learn how to take a video see Kong's post below.

The first person who accomplishes this will be awarded a badge.

There will be a badge for the winner.

The winner will receive all of the tickets from everyone else that enters. You can sell each ticket back to the shop for 75 experience points.

As much as I like this game I doubt I'd get through the challenge. Good luck to everyone and have fun.

**stevencassidy13** · 07-21-2009, 02:08 AM

i would be in if it wasnt one of the easiest games ever made

**Dudebro** · 07-21-2009, 02:12 AM

Well the point of this is the contest part. I'm sure Tenser has thought this out and it won't be a cakewalk.

**stevencassidy13** · 07-21-2009, 02:18 AM

pfft... tensers idea of a challenge is wiping his own ass

**Dudebro** · 07-21-2009, 02:33 AM

I guess we'll see right? If you think it's gonna be so easy then you should sign up and get the badge.

**stevencassidy13** · 07-21-2009, 03:03 AM

some people have stuff to do dudebro

**count100** · 07-21-2009, 03:06 AM

That's OK steven.

Its alright to be scared.

**stevencassidy13** · 07-21-2009, 03:10 AM

scared of you chumps!?
there are some badges i dont want

**Dudebro** · 07-21-2009, 03:11 AM

@Steven-That's understandable.
I'm not trying to trash talk btw. I know the game is easy for most people. I've played through it a few times so I understand what you're saying but I doubt Tenser would make it easy.

Said the kid without a single badge that's actually related to video games.

Yeah don't forget he's also saying he wouldn't want a link to the past badge. That's just crazy talk.
