Is anybody else addicted to Whyt's number game? (DS)

[Cyric]

Since getting Rydia, I've only gotten her up to Level 10. Every bit of my time otherwise has been spent on Whyt's numbers game. My best score so far is 7000, but it should start going up once I really get into it. LOL

Are you addicted? What's your score?

[KoShiatar]

I've never been good at maths. This is my game with the worst score so far. XD

[Rantz]

3750 is my best score. I like the game, though.

[Cyric]

my score's up to 9000 now...YAY!

[Cyric]

BOOYAKA!!! I just beat it! maximum score is 9999, and you get a Summoner's Outfit (for Whyt). ooooOOOOoooo...let's see if it gives me something different the 2nd time...

[edit] I just took it to 9999 again, and then 1 more after it, and I got a Dry Ether.

[edit 2] just took it to 9999 again and got a remedy...guess no more nice rewards...my Whyt's Intellect is up to 99 though...LOL

[Rantz]

I did get 9999 for Rosa's Measured Meditations pretty easily. Got a White Mage Outfit. :p

Here's my little bugger :)

I was not a big fan of this mini-game; however, I did use an online application to solve all of the equations and obtain the Summoner outfit for Whyt.

I hate that http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gifhttp://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gifhttp://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gifhttp://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif. I could get around 7000 points using the open/close method.

Cecil's however was fun as hell.

I got a 9999 on rosa's. It's pretty easy with a watch. I haven't tried [cheating] on rydia's, so my best score is only like 3000 or so.

[Dignified Pauper]

The only one I can't get is Kain's. The rest were relatively easy.

[Jowy]

I used a Lego lance from the knight on my desk in my other hand so I could poke birds from both sides.

[rubah]

haha, yeah I would hold the ds with both hands and tap on either side with my fingers. didn't work half bad

The one with Cecil is full of http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gifhttp://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gifhttp://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gifhttp://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif, tbh. Poor interface design; you keep hitting the fucking escape button accidently, because the goblins run to it. I mean what in tarnation is up with that crap? I know some guides have said to use two stylus' but honestly it's not multi-touch so it gets screwed up that way.

I suck at all the minigames. It's no wonder my Whyt got his ass kicked within five seconds of being summoned. First and last time I ever summoned him.

On a related note, my Whyt looks retarded. I'd post a picture but I lack the capability.

[Rostum]

Is there any secret to all the minigames or do I really just suck? The number minigame, even when closing the DS and working it out first, I still only manage to get to around 6000 points before the time runs out. I'd like to think I am doing it rather fast, so either I am just really slow or there is a trick?

The Cecil one still is annoying though...

[,,,]

What, wait? How is it possible to get 9999 on Rydia's game? I usually get 7000, but I just barely got 9000 once, which I'm convinced is the best possible. I'm playing on an emulator and whenever new numbers come up, I click on "File" to pause the emulator and take all the time I want to solve the equation. Even doing that, there's just no way to drag and drop those numbers fast enough to get higher than 9000. seriously, how is anyone doing that? If I'm skipping all the time it take to solve the equation and still only getting to 9000, how can anyone possibly do it without cheating and still move the numbers fast enough to get that high of a score?

[Rostum]

If you can do it 9 times in a row then you get 9999. But to do that in 60 seconds is a big stretch. If you can't do it, then how does the OP do it?! *tempted to just Action Replay it*

Edit: Okay after getting around 5 9000 I finally got 9999. I don't feel I did it any faster, so I'm not sure what's up... Now to get it two more times.

[Blue Harvest]

After a lot of attempts I finally got 9999 on Rosa's game. Unfortunately I still suck at the rest of them. My best score in Cecil's is just under 9000, Kain's is 6500, Edge's is just over 7000, and I'm not even going to mention my terrible score in Rydia's. But, has anyone else noticed that even when she rejoins the team as an adult she's still a kid when you play her game?

Also, I gave my Whyt a makeover and instead of looking retarded he now looks stoned.

[Rostum]

Finally got Rydia's 9999 score three times, Rosa's was easy to get 9999 three times. Cecil I have spent the last couple of days at, and managed to get 9999 two times (no tricks, just one stylis and luck). I am now trying to get the last 9999 on that game. I haven't got Kain or Edge yet (just turned Cecil into a Paladin).

These minigames are addicting, yet very very frustrating. I wish they would have improved the UI for Cecil's game, and not base these minigames on pure luck. Rydia's game, even if you were awesome at math, you'd still need to pull out tricks to get it fast enough -- it shouldn't be based on how fast you can close the lid and put numbers in the boxes, but rather your math skill.

/end rant

Well, hopefully Kain and Edge's isn't as bad as Cecil's. Cecil's has been the worst, and using two stylis' makes me ever worse at it. Sometimes the stylis is unresponsive (usually at the worst time), the Escape button is way too big, and the Swords button is far too small. If I ever see the person who designed these minigames, I will punch them in the face.

[Blue Harvest]

I hate that about Cecil's game too. The amount of times I touched Whyt when trying to get a rather speedy Goblin is not funny. The game should freeze and ask you if you really want to escape.
