The NEVERENDING QUEST is BACK! [community]
 
Old school Neg Worlder's remember fondly the experience quest. I decided to remake it. I actually had this ready long ago, I just wanted to get some more stages going, but I've been pretty busy and thought WTF, it has 10 stages already which isn't a bad start. I'll work on more stages once people need them.

So enter the new and improved NEVERENDING EXPERIENCE QUEST.

For the newbz, essentially it is a meta-game contained in this site, seeing how many stages you can complete. Some are just simple quizzes. Others will make you think outside the box. Can't explain it much more than that, just play it yourself and see what I mean!

The Neverending Experience Quest can be found HERE or under "NEQ" in the "etc" menu above (link actually does something now.)

You can also view user rankings HERE (just sort by NEQ to see who is leading the quest.)

CHANGES:
A. Massive XP now given for every stage completed. MASSIVE.
B. There is now a strike system. You start with full XP for any given stage, but lose XP each time you answer incorrectly, up to 3 strikes. After that, there are no more penalties, so guess away!
C. There is now a hint system. When you answer incorrectly you will get a hint. There is only one hint per stage.

Post any questions, concerns, bugs, etc. in this thread! And you can also use, but do NOT post actual answers in this thread.

WARNING: DO NOT POST ACTUAL ANSWERS IN THIS THREAD. OR ANY THREAD, FOR THAT MATTER. The point of the game is everyone figures it out on their own. If you want to private message a friend an answer that's between you and them, but keep it private.

OTHER WARNING: I WILL NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, GIVE "PRIVATE" HINTS THIS TIME AROUND. ANY HINTS I DECIDE TO GIVE WILL BE DONE PUBLICLY HERE, IN THE OFFICIAL NEVERENDING EXPERIENCE QUEST THREAD. AND YOU CAN BEG ALL YOU WANT, YOU WON'T GET MANY HINTS, ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING HINTS ARE NOW WORKED INTO THE GAME.


Have at it!

I'm trying to figure out #5, and it a little tricky, esp. since the blue bomber has quite a few red friends, unless the answer is actually a specific game in the series that stars them both in it maybe...???...

I gave up on that one.

#5 is easier than you may think. I haven't played a game in that series in probably 15 years, but I was still able to get it after thinking about it for a bit.
02/26/10, 15:18   
I just beat it. :D
02/27/10, 01:29   
Yeah, 5 has me stumped. Uhhhg! I was loving this trivia until this.

I've only played the first one when it came out. So that was, what, 25 years ago? My memory isn't anywhere near that good. I know the answer, I just don't know how to format it.

@Phalanx

Yeah, its been a looooong time since I've played it too. At least you know the answer, even though you don't know how to break it down to two letters, you're one step ahead of me.

5 is stupid easy once you figure it out. I really felt dumb after I figured it out, because I overcomplicated it to hell and back. I also started out with the wrong character for the second person and I hadn't ever heard a nickname for it.

I'm stuck on the No More Heroes one, though. I was trying to think what the gimmick was in that game and how it would play into the picture, but what I tried was obviously not correct.

SON OF A...I'm stumped by #5.

I thought this might be Megaman related, but that would be too obvious.
03/06/10, 02:08   
Ugh, I just got #5! I had read this thread to get it, but now I'm on to bigger and better levels
03/11/10, 20:48   
Lol, thanks! I thought something was wrong when I solved that one.
03/12/10, 02:41   
This should probably be called The Fairly Short Quest
03/14/10, 18:23   
The last one was shorter.

....but much harder. Took years to finish that thing :P (Shut up Red Shell.)
03/15/10, 11:33   
I finished it last night, although I had to trial-and-error a bunch. Some of them I still don't quite get, particularly the blue pikmin question.

So after some time, when there's a new NEQ, will the solutions be detailed out? Just curious.
03/19/10, 18:43   
I'm stuck at 4, because I've never played Pikmin.

@X-pert74

This may help, Pikmin Wiki


Also, I thoroughly enjoyed getting through these riddles. Maybe in the future users could have a way of sending Zero a Nintendo related riddle of our own to be included within the quest??? That would make it truly endless! I can imagine a few requirements for each submission...question, answer, screen(s), and description of how user should achieve answer.

@Jargon DAMN YOU.

Nah trust me, I want to expand it further. It's sort of difficult thinking up "think outside the box" type stages though, and if I just make a bunch of quiz stages anyone with google can figure it out...

Still, the main thing is I just haven't had any TIME to expand it, working on other parts of the site. Once Simbabbad and I finally get Neg World 3.0 finalized, I will have more time to put into the NEQ again.

@Abdooooo I have thought about that as well. Actually I might open it up to user submissions in the future, but again, once I have time to actually work on the NEQ. Right now I would just end up with an inbox of stuff I would forget about by the time I work on this again.
