Duel Challenge Progress 2 + "International Duel Challenge Day"

Hello everyone
皆の衆ごきげんよう

I hope everyone struggling with the Duel Challenge.

This challenge has become quite popular, and I am going to delay the answer to it because of that.

I was origionally going to release the answer tommorow, but now that has changed.

Spreading to several blogs, the number of people going insane because of this has increased.

Heres a new hint: 1st Move: Terraforming Activate.

Everyone, keep going. I assure you you are further than many people out there.

Additionally, more people have started making their own duel challenges has increased.

This kinda gave me an idea, mostly because I couldnt be bothered to do all of them.



All of you whom have made a duel challenge by yourself, record the full situation.

One day, across the world, duelists will gather and set up their challenges, and other people would come and try to solve these challenges.

Not only would this be a great event to meet new duelists/test your own skills, but be a great way to spend a day and make new friends.

This is my idea for "International Duel Challenge Day".
Please comment with your ideas/thoughts/support/dislike of this idea.

Challenge Creators are suggested to rate their own challenges on a difficulty scale from one to ten, with ten being the hardest. For referance, my challenge would be on a level of ten.

Also, in challenges, rule such as the Rule of 3, Deck Limits, Forbidden/Limited etc, can all ignored, or only one or two ignored.

NOT ALL CHALLENGES NEED TO BE A LEVEL OF TEN. Easy challenges, such as the ones in games, can be used, and are reccomended also. They make people feel smart.
Having someone solve your challenge in two minutes is NOT a bad thing.

A piece of advice to challenge makers: Avoid including the following in your challenges:
Search cards like RoTA, Terraforming.
D.D. Crow, Hanewata, Kuribohs, etc, unless the situation calls for it.

Really, REALLY stay away from Gorz, because its timing of summoning will really screw up your challenge. Unless your challenge leaves something left on the enemy's field.
These cards tend to make the challenges needlessly complex.

While I am at fault for including RoTA and Terraforming in my own challenge, it is because any more card in the hand would change the challenge significantly.

In other news,



Junk and Debris in action.

Tournament Report: 7/04/09

32 People, Locals.

Used: Junk and Debris In Space

1st Match VS AKB
XOX

1st Round: Had bad starting hands, and couldnt set up well. I almost got the game, but got DDB burned at the end.

2nd Round: Quick setup with Foolish->Porter->Convert Contact->Second Convert Contact->RoTA->Armaknight->Dump Sangan, and set Limit Reverse. Constant pressure with Catastor and Chain Dragon made for a quick match

3rd Round: Starting Hand: RoTA, Junk Syncron, Raigeki Break, Debris Dragon, Dual Summon. Prohibition was the next draw. PERFECT hand, if only I didnt get FTK'd.

Tournament Pack: Ojama Red, Ojama Country

Also happy independance day for you American Patriots out there.

Decks that were used today that caught my eye:

Curan Burn X Lily Beat X Pikeru+Big Bang Girl Cure Burn... With lock.
(2-0'd last time with Kuriboh Monarchs. Lock doesnt work on a horde of 300 ATK level 1 monsters, and Monarchs just clear the way)

Deformer X Ancient Gear OTK

This. Was. Amazing. OTKed 2 times VS Macro Monarchs. An attempt at re-making this deck will be up tommorow or day after.

As for the puzzle, I hope everyone is going well.

REGARDLESS of when the enemy activates book, and its target, you should be able to win with the exact same method.

Also, my friend Neuxcharge is making a Youtube version of the same puzzle for all of you whom have bad imagination. Link will be up when the video is uploaded.

Duel Challenge!

It is the World Championships, FINALS, Match 3. You have lost one and won one to this point.

You take a moment to review your current situation.

You:
Life: 2100
Deck: 30(Anything you want)
Hand: Light and Darkness Dragon, Reinforcement to the Army, Mind Control, Terraforming
Field: Blackwing - Gale the Hurricane(Face-up Atk)
Graveyard: Mystical Space Typhoon, Heavy Storm, Blackwing - Vaayu the Large Banner, Crush Card Virus, Compulsary Evacuation Device, Mystic Tomato.
RFP: None
Extra: 15(Anything you want)
Home: 1 dog waiting to be fed
Bladder: Just emptied

As you wonder HOW DID YOU MAKE IT THIS FAR, you look at your opponent's field.
Due to your Crush Card Virus, you know all of the Enemy's cards.

Enemy:
Life: 8000
Deck: 35
Hand: None
Field: Doomcaliber Knight(Face Up Atk), Spirit Reaper(Face up Def.). Book of Moon(face down)
Graveyard: Breaker the Magical Warrior, Dark Bribe, Doomcaliber Knight, King Tiger Wanghu, X Saber Airbellum, Royal Oppression, Sangan, Gold Sarcophagus
RFP: Plaguespreader Zombie
Extra: 15(Unknown)

The Judge gives you a warning for "staring at a bystander's chest", creating an air of akwardness, due to the fact that there are no women around, snapping you back into the game.

It is the end of the draw phase of your turn. Win this turn.

The deck you use(since you can have anything in it), must follow tournament Rules.

Look out for that Doomcaliber Knight.

Special thanks to Neuxcharge, Panda, Jinhao, LSJJ, and Firebot for being guinea pigs and perfecting this challenge.

Hint #1: LaDD
Hint #2: Vaayu
Hint #3: Mystic Tomato

Update: 7/2: Challenge FIXED again...

People whove figured it out:
Panda: 90 Minutes 13 Seconds
Lauren: 72 mins 2 seconds

On a side note,
Awesome armors is awesome.
