A Flavorsome Challenge





Connor: I've been wor-r-rking on the t-r-rranslations of this book and while it seems like bad news at fir-r-rst, I don't think we'r-re too late to set things r-r-r-right.



Come and visit me r-r-right away, we've got a lot of wor-rk ahead of us.

So Jaxon must be a fantastic cook. You're a lucky guy, Ian.
8=8
Yes, I am Salty, but I paid the price with my sanity.

Also, you won't see the achievements unless you Send your Score; after submission, the achievements will show. Be sure to have already completed the "level." Don't stop at 49, go to 52...if you must...just to be sure. twitch

I can still hear the beeping...
BirdJuice
I'm going to try and complete 110 games of Pete says today. Hopefully that will make a good dent in it. :)
misstada
@Kbbob

Thank You~ That helped a lot!
Sleeb
We are never going to fill the Pete meter. ; o;
Hellbent
HALLELUJAH I AM SALTY. I'm going to try to keep playing so we can get the bar up to the green area and hopefully get the extra prizes at the end of the plot, but it's so much better without the extra pressure of trying to get to 50. :)
bulleta
I made to 50
Then to 51 to make sure there was no funny business
now I'm on 53 and I'm afraid to stop and I want to cry lmao
bulleta
@kbbob oh yeah like the second time I failed I already decided to get cheaty with it and opened paint to start marking the colors down lol so I made it now!! yay!! I'll try for 50
Kevin
@bulleta
have you tried writing it down? :)

@sw33tc00kie
if you're stuck, you should check out this guide
it seems like you're in step 4 =)
Umby
we're gonna be filling pete's bar until im 30
misstada
Question: If I don't complete these challenges in the end will I not turn
back to my original color?

Because I am still stuck on the coding one :(
bulleta
Goddamn it my memory is shit, I can't get to 10, the world is mocking me
How could u do this to me subeta
Kevin
submit those pete scores above 10, even if you're maxed out on score submissions! every game submitted above 10 counts as one point towards the goal! :)
Hellbent
I keep dying on level 23. It's always level 23. Not 22, not 24 not 12 or 10 or anything else. 23. 23 is now a cursed number.
Archimedes_580
Reached level 54 and now my brain is mash @User not found: _@
Sleeb
Holy typos, Batman!
Sleeb
For everyone conplaining about the sp smelter, if you do Pete's, Wizard's and Library quests, you'll porbably have enough to at least donate 100k.
Julie
Drop 100k if you can't drop 500k, every amount helps. It's a community thing. If you do that for 5 days, that is the same amount as dropping 500k in one day. I'm pretty sure Subeta will be fair in what we as members can contribute.
DistressedDenim
I hope we don't have to make it to level 50 on Pete's game in order to go to the next part of the event.
I got to 44 before I doof'd and hit the wrong color. x_X
Stiles
Also, anyone else have the issue of it not counting levels? I clearly got past level 20 & 25 but it didn't count or do the achievement thing. What a waste :/
Stiles
I got to 49 did it and the page refreshed on its own, so I'm officially done trying to get the 50 I'm not having that happen again. GL to those still trying. I found it easier to go by the color initials until the site messed me up.
joy
I feel like staff could've made it more clear that the green bars are for the whole site.
I literally went out and bought hundreds of items to donate to Charity so that my green bar would fill up because I thought that everyone had their own bar.
PiplupMagby34
What's with the bars for Pete, Charity, and the Recycle Beast on the news page?
Lexx
It literally takes FOREVER to get the higher end achievements for Pete. Like, just sitting there, trying to get to 50... I failed at 33, but it took a half hour to get to that! I do not have the focus to spend an hour on one attempt to get that last achievement. I might keep trying to help the progress bar, but... the time commitment is too strong with this one. Even WITH writing the colors down.
Stiles
I'm assuming the Salty achievement is lvl 50 but whats 20? I'm going to keep contributing to the community overall but wondering if the frustration is worth trying for 20 because I don't care about Forum Titles
Kenobi
Woohoo! Got the Salty title. I'm not liking the look of Pete's bar though, yikes.
hermes
this has got to be the most frustrating game in all game history, oh my god. i don't think i'll ever bother with the salty achievement. i managed 26 yesterday. it's so slow!! but at the same time if it were any faster it'd be impossible. i feel like i'm at 25 when in reality i've only hit 10. jfc.

poor pete's bar will be lucky if it ever fills.
RiverStarr
Took me ages to get past 10...broke out the pen and paper to help out, made it to level 21 before misclicking...going to get the salty achievement one way or the other...

plot overall is cool :)
Lychnobia
I am glad that prices are community wide and not for "you played game x y times and therefore you get z items".

A pity though that I am not getting/did not get the fading memory illnes :(
Stiles
I got it and I'd never played this game as a kid but I hate it now that I have. What level achievement do we have to beat to move on with the plot? 10 or 15?
Voodoo


My ears are bleeding thanks to Pete, but loooooooving this plot
Stiles
I am so confused how to do Pete's game and I checked the Forum Guide and?? You can't click the ones lit up but it seems that every time I click one it lights up after the first click. I don't understand this thing. Its prob the simplest thing too Lol
Deathena
I turnend the sound up nice and loud, was all going good until I got it wrong... pooped my pants
Hamda
I got to level 48 before my finger slipped... booooooooo.....
Viking
Pete's game would be much easier to get to 50 if it wouldn't lag at some point so the buttons you klick actually count. Oh well.
Archimedes_580
Keep donating to Charity, smelter sp every day and play Petes game! There will be special rewards at the end of the plot if we succeed to fill up the bars! (Read it in the forum)
ChatLunatique
Made it to level 52 before my finger slipped on 41 of 53..., should have gone slower and not gotten cocky after hitting 50. Oh well, got the achievements, so its all good. I love memory games.
kimcl91
I wish it was bop it instead! I could get far in that one. I keep losing at 9 x.x 9!!!
This gave frustrates me to no end.
insannie
tbh im getting sick of having to drop large sums of sp on this event. what the hell are people who DON'T have 500000sp supposed to do? just... not participate? because i think im about to join them in that, this is getting ridiculous.
FehlerNr23
And my book accidently went to Charity, too ...
Kellijuana
Woohoo, finally figured out what everyone was talking about 'bars to fill' On my kindle browser they don't show up. :P

As to Pete says, if you look for the patterns it becomes a more manageable. And if you're a dork like me and sing the colors as notes even more so XD (my sound isn't hooked up so I can't hear the actual notes being played) I broke them down into patterns of 3 or 4 and then put three groups together as a group of ten. Like:
YGB.YPYP.GYP
RYR.GYG.PGBB
YGP.YPRP.BGG
and on and on...
Taters
Aww lame there are so many cheaters to get to 50 xD I understand trying for days on end and giving in, but on the first day?

Either way, So loving this. Simon was one of my favs as a kid. Im just glad this wasnt bop it, that one and its timer gave me panic attacks lol
Pluma
conner can i borrow your glasses? the eyestrain struggle is real D8
FCoD
I am determined that eventually I will be as salty as I can be! It just might take a little while.
ChatLunatique
Thank you Pete! finally, a game I'm really good at!!!!! I'm loving this plot,(in spite of the rowboat) something for everyone.
Genie
I got to 47..and I made a mistake....Shoot me
FCoD
Staff: Have I said how much I'm appreciating this fun summer event? Even though I had to skip that darn boat race, I hate the controls for Pirate Panic (both of them) and Pete is making not only my head hurt, but I feel an excessive need to punch him in the face... multiple times, I am enjoying this immensely.

Thank you. :)
Frieda
Yay!! 50! I wrote them down.
ZORO
I might actually cry. I got to 46. I got to 46 and then I accidentally skipped a color. T^T
BirdJuice
It took me an hour to get it right but I finally got the Salty acheivement!!!
Now I just have to play to help fill up the bars on the news page. :D
demon
the wrong buzzer keeps scaring me
Sovereign
lmao no wonder lv 50 is the title salty
bc my god
That's what that game is making me and everyone else at this point Jesus christ
gallows
lmao never has 'salty' been a more accurate achievement title
Kevin
yay figured out why the rainbow bar hates firefox. let me know if you want the customcss, I'll see if someone can fix this for the site though ^^
Maladjusted_Jester
@Canidae
Actually, the game is more like Simon. Not sure there was a button in the center, though. I think that's what Bop It was based on too.
Starfleet
those of you that are struggling with the game, write it down as you go along.
techn0witch
@Frenchi

Would you say the game is making you... salty? -ba dum ts-
Anri
Aye this game! -tosses laptop out the window-
Damon
Just got this done I am so late. Hmm the Pete achievement game is gonna be the death of me.
Frenchi
ughhh… even with cheating (aka writing down the order on a piece of paper) i only got to level 42 before hecking up >:0 i told myself i wouldn't do it but… i want that salty achievement!!!!!!
BirdJuice
50 may be too much for me. Please Shinwa help me make it to the last acheivement! ;_;
Cresenta
Reached Level 32 and died. ;_; I think I need to go cry for a little bit before I can attempt this again.
VelindraJayHedgehog
I now see, hear and taste colours...which is made all the more better a condition by 'The P Word' as the game prize along with the last two titles involved XD
Well played, Staff, well played <3!
Atreyu
@cheypanda Thanks!
FENNEC


I remember
Mandy
ok nvm its back now lol
Hellbent
I also figured something out. DO NOT TRY TO BE QUICK ABOUT IT. Seriously if there is a double color (like: red purple purple blue) you have to click it twice slowly and give it time to register that it's been clicked. I've died twice now because I tried to double click. Save yourselves, it's too late for me.
Mandy
I was trying to do the game for Pete and I failed a few times so went off to do something else and then try again..but now the game isn't there...:( Its acting as if I skipped it
Nuke
slowly lays down on top of connor

plot is great but i just love seeing his cute spotty face every other day
Amme
WEARING HEADPHONES AND THE GAME OVER BUZZER IS UNACCEPTABLE lmao
Hellbent
Omg Pete, honey bunches of Pete. You're game is probably the most infuriating thing I've ever seen and that includes the 'find 250 ghosts' gravedigger game, even while writing them down. I made one mistake on level 23 and it's all over omg this is like torture but I WILL PERSEVERE. DO YOU HEAR ME PETE? YOU WILL NOT GET THE BEST OF ME AND I WILL BE S A L T Y!
Chey
@Forest yes he has vitiligo :)
witchywoman
@forcryinoutloud not cumulative :( i suggest using a pen and paper haha
Atreyu
I just noticed Connor has blotches on his skin, and I'm wondering if it has anything to do with Vitiligo?
Pluma
ahhh i got so close to 25 on one of my first tries. i made a song out of the colors and that seemed to help. xD i'll go back to it later once my brain returns to normal.

here is the link for the game, which they will most likely put on the front page soon: http://subeta.net/explore/spirited/pete_says.php

now to complete the rest of the steps... flies away~
Kevin
@forcryinoutloud
It's in one game :p good luck!

@bailey
Yeah unfortunate how that worked itself out
Bailey_435
I think this game is bringing out people's frustration lol
Bailey_435
I'll try not to make innocent comments in the future.
Bailey_435
@Nedera I wasn't getting my panties in a bunch. I have a very dry style of writing, if you wanna take that as me being angry that's kinda your problem.
forcryinoutloud
Thanks @kbbob ^_^ I am definitely taking part - just wanted to clarify. ;)

For Pete - do you need to get through 50 rounds in one game, or is it cumulative?
Hemophage
made it to 45. you don't even want to know how mad I am right now >:(
__HUX__
I can't find the Pete game? where is it?
Immortal
What ghost? /searches forever/ /ugly sobbing/
Faeflower
I guess I wrote it down funny. I drew out the game and then just put 1,2,3,etc in the correct section. So I could keep my place by saying the numbers in my head. XD Oh well I got to 50 either way. :P
Shark
Ugh. Got through 50 rounds. I never want to play this game again lmao. (A tip for others: don't think/say/write down/whatever the food item or full colour name, just use R/B/Y/G/P. That's about as quick and easy as you can make getting to round 50 haha)
Abaven
@kbbob

True. A pen and paper is what's going to save me on this game.

And yeah, I'm definitely taking advantage of the time in between the steps. Heck, I'm still trying to get the 250 ghosts. XD
__HUX__
Where do i go for this next step?
RMutt
okay... Pete... I found a spirit. it was in riverside valley. it wasn't in peka park where you said it would be. why do you lie?
Net
Really don't know what to do, I have played the pete game past 10 and cant find any ghost things?
Kevin
I see the rainbow bar still hates firefox :(
TaintedTamer
"Quickly, find a spirit to give that basket to, see if it seems to appease them! I've heard that there were many spirits lurking around Sacred Lands."

I've literally been searching the Sacred Lands for ages and haven't found anything.
marvel
The rainbow bar has made a glorious return o:
Tserel
im gonna cry i need that salty title so much
Cookie
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one here with a horrible memory haha. Memory games are so hard. I'm going to try writing it down and see how far I can get...
Allegria
I've played these memory games before. Yeah, unless there's no timer and I can write down the order, I'll take my getting to level 10 and stick with that. :D

And sorry, Beasty, I smelted once for this plot and that's it. Natasha's not going to buy itself.
Xiocite
@draithypie
Once you've done the plot steps you (if you want) donate items to charity to move her bar, play pete's game past lvl 10 to move his bar, and throw money at the RB to move his bar
draithypie
It seems I'm only able to donate to Charity... is that true?
Nedera
@bailey you were getting your panties in a bunch. It's not a big deal if someone moans a little. Some people aren't into the games as much as other parts of the plot.
worm
where the heck are these ghosts...
draithypie
That moment you aren't paying attention and accidentally donate your achievement prize to Charity. 'DOH!!
Ringo
The Pete bar is going to take for ever to fill up. O_O I did my 50 for the achievement. Sorry Pete bar. My brain is fried.
Xiocite
I want to throw money at the RB, but can't. TAKE MY MONEY DAMNIT
Kevin
@forcryinoutloud
yes they are community oriented :) you should try to help out still though!
forcryinoutloud
So the bars on the news page for Pete, Charity and the Recycle Beast - those are community oriented right? I don't have to try and fill those bars myself??? :P
Tali
Every time I screw up on Pete's game, I jump at the buzzer and the mouth with the tongue. Every. Time.
kuzi
@kbbob ahh so it's a community thing instead of a personal counter ^^ thank you!
Kevin
@qarakuzi
all of the bars are on the news page, I guess they didn't put one for the recycle beast on his page.
kuzi
aaand I'm confused again-- I have a meter for both charity and pete, but not a different one for the beast? or is it all together?
whisperly
@oilbird
Welcome to the club, I did the same with my book -.-
Lexx
Random Event
Have you fed your Pete today?

You sure are needy today, aren't you Pete? YOU HAVE ALL MY MEMORY BRAIN CELLS. AND NOW YOU WANT MY FOOD. STOP IT.
InSaNe
HAHAHA oh shit I did up to level 25 but then I was bored so I went "back to Pete" or something but since I never lost it counted for 0

never doing that again
Kevin
@InSaNe
he doesn't get many page views.
Grishiu
"getting world of mouth out" lol Charity.
oilbird
Oh man...I'm an idiot and accidentally donated The P Word!
Lore
I had headphones on and when I got my first game over on the Simon Says game for Pete with the loud buzzer... I'm not proud to admit it, but I jumped xD
InSaNe
why isn't this guys grey yet? dude been roaming all over subeta
FENNEC
I chose the higher smelt, because I thought it was a trickxD
Yuzuki
i took a look at them achievements and figured i was going to go for the salty achievement on my first go to save time and i have no clue how i managed bc my fingers were literally shaking by the end. alright

back to gravedigger, it's far more relaxing x_x
Wolfmyth
I keep making it to level 8 or 9 with Pete says...I'm going to have to come back to it later...when I'm more awake
Kevin
@Kittyclaws911
good thing you're on a computer and it's convenient to pull up notepad or something to write down each step of the memory game! :)

this step isn't too bad that it's short either, you can always spend time donating + playing pete more to reach our goals =)
Abaven
Grrr...The steps to the plot are too short. Oh well, at least I can use the time to catch up on game achievements. Oh and the 50 achievement on the Pete game? It's times like this when I wish I had photographic memory.
Vanessa
I agree with Lexx- I also did not know you could only smelt once per day so I just chose the option that was least pricey, lol
Why not make it more than once per day? More sp would sink in^^'
Garyx
ALL THE GHOSTS GET NEON TACKY RINGS AND PLUGS.
Throws them at Charity like confetti
Muerte
@Frenchi yuh salty
(This is in jest staff, calm your warning and deleting of comments)
Lexx
Also, can we please get the smelter to be as many times as we want till this step is done? I thought I would be able to donate multiple times, so I only donated 100k... I'll drop a couple million if you open it up for more donations in a day.

sP SINK HYPE.

(As in, I always forget about the smelter, so give me the chance to give rid of some sP, please? lol)
Muerte
It is a baaaad time to have a memory the size of a pea. I shall work on the achievements tonight for sure though, I need all of the food related ones!
Frenchi
oh great, now everyone is gonna be going for that 'salty' forum title…
kuzi
huh never mind, it seems to work now
Chef
@Athenesic you're welcome. :-)
kuzi
I'm a bit confused though, I got to level 15 and then made a mistake and went back to 14? shouldn't there be a send score option?
Athenesic
Thank you @Unwritten that was a huge help. :)
Nostalgia_507
I cant seem to follow to 10 steps..i lose my concentration and i just lose at step 9....-___-
Vanessa
made it to 33 then screwed up.. FML. maybe I should just do it tomorrow morning, I'm too tired x_x
Flier
I'm sure the Recycle Beast one is doable, we just need to be.. patient .O.
(Assuming these donations last more than one day or something)
Bailey_435
'calm down' jesus
Bailey_435
Uh, I don't think I said anything rude. I think you were reading it in a tone I didn't intend. Y'all are sensitive today.
Ferinsy
Staff, please low the recycling goal or let us smelt more than once a day just for the event
Elysium
Really, guys? I know you wanted to put a tax on the usershops to eliminate SP stagnation but forcing us to throw 100k at the plot in order to advance is salty.
Bailey_435
Oh god I got to 41 and fucked up I'm going to throw something
Lexx
I have no idea how I got to level 23 in that memory game... but I sure don't want to try for the harder ones. o_O

But item donations? Heck yeah. My shop is full of stuff I am too lazy to price! goes to throw all the junk at Charity
Lirikai
You've already smelted today! Get out of here!

We can't smelt more if we want to? Hahaha this step is going to take forever, then.
Kevin
@Xezvi
notepad is your friend.
Xezvi
@kbbob

O_O You. Are insane.
Kevin
You've earned the Mind Like a Steel Trap achievement!

thank god I am all done X_X

got my Salty title.
Chef
@Athenesic, the forums are a good place to get info as to what the next steps are, but the haiku you're given leads you to another NPC. You have to figure out which NPC that is, pay them a visit, go back to Alexander (if I remember correctly), and keep going. If I remember correctly, there were 3 haikus to solve and 3 NPCs to visit to complete that step.
Athenesic
Okay I am really confused! When I click on the "visit me" link it leads me to Conner telling me the same thing he said on the 17th. That I have to talk to Alexander about translating the book. I already did that on the 17th. It leads me to the haiku. There doesn't seem to be anymore I can do with Alexander.

Also I've been hearing about Pete? Did I miss something there? I am so confused.
HYPEBEAST
Gotta be condescending, y'know :p
Delirium
@bailey
There's no need to be rude dude, calm down.
Julie
Cool another step to do. But not on the phone.
Zelor
Level 50? That's pressing the right button 1,275 times in a row without messing up. This is a nightmare. T-T

I must get those acheivements though...
Stakely
everyone please shun me, even with pen and paper I made it to step 9. I am ashamed.
Lorelai
Just a thought, wouldn't this be the best time to empty the pawn shop?...lot's of cheap clothes and stuff in there...
Chef
Ahh..the spirits are small and kind of easy to miss if you aren't looking closely.
Undyne
Hmm--is anybody else who's been donating noticing a little bit of color coming back to their HAs? Mine just has a little bit of orange in the flame on the bottom left as of now. Not for sure if this is event-related or just a bug of some sort... I'll keep an eye on it and see if it's just coming back with time or if it will actually get more color the more I donate!
Bailey_435
there's this thing called pen and paper it works pretty well
SHIBITO
obvious sinks are obvious

(at least Pete Says has lots of tiers!)
Flier
@Mike
Good to know! c:

Though oooh yeah I feel that.
Loop
I'm glad the last two titles for the game are bitter and salty. It's very accurate. Chances are I'll be quite bitter if I ever get that far.

So the bars on the news page. Charity's goes up with item donations, Pete's goes up with the game, and the Beastie's goes up with sP, right? That last one wouldn't work very well though because you can only smelt so much.
Mike
@Kiseki
I had already completed today's step, but thank you. Hopefully this will help anyone who has the same problem as you :)

I was just being facetious because I'm rather annoyed with the lack of challenge or even engagement from plots as of lately.
Lantern
I do wish there was more of a reason to keep donating to Charity. I like doing that :)
Flier
I had some CustomCSS that I think was interfering with spirits showing up (I refreshed like 25+ times with nothing) so I temporarily deleted some of it (pasted them into notepad temporarily) and found a spirit on the 2nd or 3rd refresh?? Maybe that was it? Huge maybe, but worth a shot?

@Mike
Cresenta
@whisperly

I did the EXACT same thing. ;_;
omiai
so on completing todays stuff, according to the achievements you are meant to get the book 'The P Word' but i got the achievement but not the item :( any admins/mods who could look into this?
Mardou
If you skip pete's game can you still go back to it later and get the achievements?
whisperly
OMG nooooo!! I accidently donated the book I received from the achievement to charity! Life hates me today >_<
Mike
Boy, having to refresh riverside 200 times sure added a level of difficulty I've never experienced before...
Amae
@kbbob
Charity implied there were more prizes in store if people kept donating, but whether it's on an individual or community bases I'm not sure yet.
Jack
Glad to see that once you get the last achievement you can go back to Pete to keep playing. :) Now to go for all the tiers!
HYPEBEAST
Now I'm it to like 7/10 tops because of the pressure of having to reach the 10th level to be able to continue.
Efferd
I wonder about this as well @kbbob
Kellijuana
I got to level 20 first try. :) I hope to be able to play again. Now if I could just get a spirit to pop up in Delphi!
Belladora
If you refresh Darkside, eventually one of the spirits from Pirate Panic will appear randomly on the map.
Aerows
I wish I knew what I was looking for in this Spirit Search
Bailey_435
The titles however are GREAT
Amae
Is the offerings monitor on the news page community based? Is the one in Charity's community based or individual? Essentially I'd like to know what each bar is for :)
Bailey_435
That game over image is kinda gross
Banette
If you can't find spirits, refresh the page a few times!
Kevin
is there any incentive to keep donating? why is this an option?
Stakely
ugh........ I am terrible at memory games. I did make it to 13 though so woohoo!
Jack
Pete Says was fun but I didn't manage to get more than level 11 and I sent my score. Is there no way to go back to the game to try to get the other tiers? :(
Hamda
spirits don't like me, can't seem to find any today...
Lirikai
I kinda think there should be a way to skip the Recycle Beast step. Not everyone may have the resources for that and it appears to be a crucial plot step.
omiai
bleh i can't find the spirit to give the basket too! ><
Biohazard
i took it to level 16 but it acts like i did not do any on pete
Kevin
sP sink lololol
Stakely
ew Pete, those shoes are not flattering at all
Cresenta
Made it to level 10. No idea where to go next lol.
MagnusTheRed
How do I play the game? :?
HYPEBEAST
I made it 9/10... Please!
marvel
Heh, I lost Pete Says right after I got enough levels to move on.
FLUX
...level 50? are you serious?
Vanessa
I know it will take me some time to complete this game, I think so anyway. I have trouble remembering stuff... @User not found: _@ (I'm one of the most forgetful people you'll meet, lol!)
Undyne
Woohoo! I hope we can figure out exactly what's been going on with all this fading business. I for one am ready to be questing all the time instead of napping!
Lorelai
'we'r-re to late' should be 'we'r-re too late' ;)
Kevin
there it is
