NO MINIGAME WINS CHALLENGE INFORMATIONAL SPREADSHEET AVAILABLE HERE: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14VbiFZ10gVZK5qE8e5JPccBo1q9JQ7vDEDVl4zaWMaI
Another short stay on the Battle Royale board - amazing! Woody Woods does not seem like a friendly board, but apparently if you get up to the northern part of the map and never stop exploiting it, you can make everything work. I simply must credit the CPU for some truly magnanimous decision-making that pushed the successful attempt over the top. Perhaps... could friendship be the true answer to this challenge's riddle? No, no, that's silly. Nevermind...
Blowhard was fine.
I'm really excited for Creepy Cavern though - now that's a board where a thoughtful human player is going to be able to get up to some shenanigans. Here's hoping the red spaces are kind...
No Minigame Wins Challenge Rules:
1. I am not allowed to win end-of-turn minigames.
2. I am not allowed to win Duel minigames.
3. I am not allowed to win against Game Guy.
4. I am not allowed to get 1st place in a Battle minigame. I am allowed to get 2nd place, though.
5. If I win a minigame I must reset the board entirely, starting from Turn 1.
(I refer to this happening as a "death".)
6. No turn resets. Boards will be played without mid-match save files.
(Allowing turn resets would make the challenge way too easy.)
7. Item minigames, which are not adversarial competitive activities, I am allowed to earn items from.
(Succeeding is not the same thing as winning.)
8. For coin minigames, I will let the game play out with zero input from my controller.
(Coin minigames don't have "winners" and "losers", but to minimize controversy I've decided to abstain from playing them actively.)
9. Chance Time is not a minigame and I may take advantage of it as I please.
10. I can defeat the fake Millennium Star at the end, don't be silly. The game doesn't declare Luigi a winner afterwards. ;)
