Casper, you'll get it soon. If you're consistently scoring that high, it's only a matter of time. Try to take a break between rounds -- I found that playing spider solitaire helped clear the last round from my brain relatively quickly. And try not to look at your score too much -- I found when I stressed myself out in the last round thinking I'd get it, I'd lose concentration and just miss (I got two scores of 699). But the last time, I thought I wasn't going to make it and was just "practicing" the hard rounds -- until I shaved over 20 seconds off my time in level 11 (if I remember correctly). So keep at it, and good luck!

I can't finish it either, same reason.

I can get to the last stage, with all lives and huge head start, but freeze solid :cry:

I still can't send the bug report either. I think it's because when I created my account 2 years ago, I set my age at the age of my youngest child so she couldn't get on the neoboards. I had no idea at the time that this was against the rules.

Oh! There was one thing that I did find funny about Dungeon Dash, despite all my whining...on the "Entering level 2..." screen, the one right before the Turmac Roll stage. Did anyone else keep looking at it really quickly and thinking that the Turmac was Baby Bowser?

Submitted score of 4039. =\

Yay, for Ruby, Blue, Munduses, and BettyWales! [hands them a cookie each]


Oooh, thanks! :D I was determined to finish it, since I gunked up the general challenge so badly. I got a AAA-beating score on all but a couple of games, but went to bed one night, and totally forgot to play Meerca Chase for the day. After, of course, I sent in Abigail for Meepit Juice Break. That means I'm out for all but the most lowly overall prize. :oops: Had to beat DD for a little pride!

Watch out for the broken planks and spikes (use bubble). I found them very hard to see and continued to die until I got the hang of shield/helmet/bubble timing.
Also make sure your shield/helmet is all the way up before you get to the skeith/kougra.

Keep at it & you'll get there! Good luck!

The daily dare has ended right everyone? This is insane!

At 11.55 i sent in a score of 5000. I completed it but my score was not processed. End up it only recorded me as 4,222 score. My previous. :(

This is SO fustrating. I finally got 5000 and i didn't complete this. This is atrocious. I took a screenshot of it i wonder if TNT will still award me with the prize...

Anyone can tell me what i should do?

...So they didn't fix that glitch after all.

I had the same problem, sent score twice in one day and it didn't count the second (completed) score. I sent a score in the next day and it counted. Try again if the day has turned over from the 11:55. I think it may only count the first score you send in for the day.

If you can still play, of course. Might not be able to...haven't checked. But trust me, they'll have a lot of bug reports about this game.

I think it only counted for AAA on DD if you had beaten AAA in every game (ultimate or megasuperb since some people who did said they beat it with Abigail and still had it count for AAA) and it counted as Abigail for everyone else. I could be wrong though.

Oh, that stinks. I think you probably had the window open when TNT resets them at 11:50pm, so I'm not sure there's much you can do. But definitely send TNT the screenshot (I hope it has your username in the background of the game so they can tell it's really yours -- same browser and everything) -- you never know. They really should have had some foresight and disabled the 11:50pm rule (postponed it until midnight, at least) on the last night of Daily Dare.

It looks like it's all shut down, so apparently TNT doesn't care about non-Windows users, either. I suggest in addition to sending in bug reports, send it to the editorial and call them out on it -- though of course, they might choose to ignore it, maybe if enough people complain, they'll actually have the -- well, I can't think of a polite word -- to address the issue.

(BTW, I hate TNT's April Fools' thing -- my eyes are drawn to typos like a moth to light, and I can hardly read anything!!!!)

Did you start the game before 11.50?

Any game you play regardless of what it is, has to have the score sent before 11.50 or restart after 11.50 and send before 12am. It has been this way for a very long time.

Sometimes on longer games for WC, I will forget and have to stop the game and restart because the score never processes.
