    I decided that I would get this no matter how many tries it took, 2 hours later and 7 scores of 99 later I got it. YAY ME!

    Enjoy the Moonstone and 10,000 gil.

    Were you able to jump rope 653478567 times? That's the real challenge!

    Nah, I already had a Mission Impossible, I didn't fancy taking on another one, I did however get to 20 (yes I know its 200 for the best prize).

    It's 1000 for the best prize, actually! Well, for the highest prize.

    20 Jumps: 10 Gil
    50 Jumps: Cactuar Card
    100 Jumps: Genji Card
    200 Jumps: Alexandria Card
    300 Jumps: Tiger Racket Card
    1000 Jumps: King of Jump Rope (Key Item)



    In my last playthrough I passed 300 but never got anywhere close to 1000. You know it's bad when a completionist gives up on something. Since you can go back to Alexandria on disc 4 I always tell myself I can go back and get to 1000 later.

    (SPOILER)Never gonna happen.

    I think I usually get like, 5 jumps. Hahaha.

    I only ever please 99 nobles, though.

    As far as the noble thingy goes, I have only ever bothered to do that once. Good job, man!

    It was a grand day when I spent nearly three hours trying to impress those damn nobles. Zidane and Blank must have been so tired at the end of it.
    I almost got 1000 jump ropes once. I had 953 and then I messed up. /RAGEQUIT

    C-c-c-combo break!

    Seriously, though, I probably wouldn't have played that game again for like, years.

    I always get 100/100. Usually takes about 5 or 6 times.

    I believe Rantzien has the King of Jump Rope Key Item.

    Can you get those cards anywhere else? I've yet to play far into this game but I hated the jump rope even after trying it just a few times. I guess my timing isn't so good, I dunno. It would probably take me less time to complete a machine that times the pressing of the button to perfection than it would for me to get 1,000 jumps. xD

    As for the key item, is there any benefit to it?

    Yep, you can get all the cards elsewhere. Nope, the key item just sits there and looks pretty.

    Nope, I haven't gotten to 1000. My record is 200-something. I don't recall if I've gotten 100/100 nobles impressed, but I don't think so.
