Featured Game: Burrero Basket Bonanza!
Welcome back, EPICon fans! I hope everyone had a restful weekend, because we have a lot of exciting announcements to make!
First up, our next featured game is an offering from Veta. Back by popular demand, you can now try your hand at produce production line-management by playing Burrero Basket Bonanza! (Though, please refrain from riding the Burreros.) You can earn points for doing your best, but Veta resident Sarah's had quite a bit of practice and challenges you to beat her score of 1000 for bonus points! She assures you that it requires more concentration than you might think.
Beginning today, you can earn 70 EPICon points per day by playing any combination of our EPICon games (up to a limit of 10 points per game), with an additional 10 points attainable only by earning bonus points from the featured game! We hope you'll continue to sample all of the featured games to pick out your favorites!
Lastly, the cosplay contest has opened for voting! Your voting wall resets hourly, so check back every hour to vote again!

The game still isn't working properly for me. Won't fill completely up so I have to hit the spacebar every single time. Then even though the basket is there, a life gets taken from me. At this rate I won't be having very many EPIcon points to spend.

Did hard mode on Ziara Raceway get easier or did I get super lucky? I managed to finish it twice today. :o

Well I don't think I'll be getting the 70 points since I STILL am unable to load Ziara Raceway. At least I can get 60 though.

I, too, would like to know if one point from game X (subeku) has the same value as one point from game Y (shell spotter).

I guess I'm the only one not in favor of this new system... Not only are there too many choices now but one vote per hour? Even with an auto-refresher, I'm going to forget more often than I vote. :(

It's been an hour since your EPICon Cosplay Contest vote, and you can now vote again.
Registration is closed! We're getting everything organized right now, so voting will be open soon!
Looks like someone forgot to open up voting.

The game is nice... the only 2 problems is that it 1st present the drunk version and who did not remember/do some previous event would not know what is going on; the second is that fresh and rotten vegetables/fruits look too much alike!
And 70 games! O_o well it would me easier to earn more points, but does it not mean that each point now worth less?

I'm hoping that after whatever site maintenence happens in a few minutes that there will be something more to this event other than the games and now voting...
I'm enjoying it, but from everything I've heard about past events I want a story to follow!

2. More tiers, please?? I managed to get the title after one day's worth of play.
3. THANK YOU for the points limit! I was beginning to worry that EPICon games would eat up my whole day lol

I have not been able to get the tiles to work for me either and I just now tried going to it using the game page instead of links and it actually worked :) You might try it and see if you have any luck

To anyone who gets the drunk (blurry, laggy, mispelled, etc.) version of the game:
Try refreshing the page. If that doesn't work, play through, DO NOT submit your score, then refresh the page.
I originally had the drunken version, tried to play it and gave up. Came back later and it was clear and pretty, so give it a shot.:)

First time playing it, I couldn't even see the controls. So I hit space when it ended, thinking it would restart the game, and it sent a really low score. So much for getting all of the points from this game. lmao

Are you serious 1000 points? I can't make this, I suck at this game. The most I've made is 632. :( Looks like I will fail this. Oh well better luck next time.

Went to this game but the instructions are so blurred I can't read them so have no idea what to do. Oh well. There's no way I have time to play 80 games a day anyway.

I'm not getting much sleep and I feel super dense. But this means we have to play seven past games 10 times each still or...something else? I honestly can hardly ever manage that, what with some games taking a long time and having a job and all. But at least I won't get so behind everyone else now. I've been sad about that since I can typically only play 2-5 games depending on if it is the weekend or not. :)

Alright, I lied. Refreshed and got the real version of the game. Can't believe the sp payout of this game. 25k each game? Yes, please. :P Still not liking the cap though, especially since there were staff comments earlier that all games may not count the same. Overall, the amount of clarification in this event has been below Subeta's normal standards, which makes it basically abysmal.

Gah, I hate this game. Why do we automatically get the drunk version? Also not liking the cap. Not a good Subeta day for me, I guess.

It's impossible for me to play this game -.- it fades and it barely listens to the commands, not to mention it has spelling errors on the screen where it says "press spacebar to start" ...

I said that wrong.
I meant something like
No one is forcing others to play all the games 10 times a day.
I dont find it fair to the ones who can play all games 10 times a day.
The other way I said it seemed a lil rude.

Im not sure why the cap is implemented. Not complaining since I don't have the time, but people who choose put in more time should be rewarded.

As much as I b**ched about it, id rather have it like it was before.
Not my fault if others cant play all games 10 times a day.

Just got a 30,000 score on Burrero Basket Bonanza which I used to suck at because I never paid much attention to it. I love this event because it's making me learn how to play a LOT of the games which I don't think I would have otherwise. XD

Honestly I'm disappointed by the addition of a point cap. There's no such thing as having enough points if there's a prize shop involved :P

Yeeeeah that sucks. It's not giving points for games past the tenth score sent, and I wasted like three from drunk score sending when I tried to empty a basket right as I died. So now I'm screwed. :)

If we can only get 70 points per day plus 10 bonus now that really sucks because I was looking forward to completely busting my ass to get like 300 points everyday lol but oh alright I guess

...well that was a fun achievement while it lasted. x'D
I love that the warning is in big, bold letters...makes it impossible to miss.
For the people getting lightheaded/dizzy...once the burreros pick up speed a bit, try unfocusing your eyes a bit and concentrating more on the colors of the produce on their backs than any specific shape...I've noticed that makes it easier on the eyes for me once I get around 4-5k.

I don't understand
Does that mean that there is a cap to the amount of points you can get daily, like, you can only get 70 per day plus the bonus 10 of the featured game
OR does that mean that you can still get 10 points from each game, plus the bonus 10 from the featured game, plus the other 70 points?

Using space as the key to both empty baskets and send your score is not cool. I keep accidentally sending low scores when the game ends right as I'm about to empty a basket.

6 games in and I have to say a big thank you for not making the bonus points score any higher than 1k. That's around the time I notice myself getting sick. I'm loving the point cap. It was getting ridiculous with all the games to play. I think Stealth Bomber will be the first I drop even though I do love playing it. It takes too long to play one game. The bug game will be the second to go.

Is there any way you can add WAY more tiers to the achievement? Like, this is a game I would definitely go for 500,000 or even a million cumulative points. I already got 7k from one game and got several achievement tiers, that's kind of too easy XD
