[EVENT ENDED] Trophies and Relief Doctors involving Struggle

[Breakingthegreen]

Trophies and Relief Doctors involving Struggle (TARDIS for short)

 

Hello Trophy Hunters/ Collectors/ people who like games. We've had many events and charity events on these forums, so I thought that we could all do another one. If you're good with acronyms, you may have already worked out the theme, but before that, let's discuss the charity.

 

What charity are we raising money for this time

 

This time for “Doctors without Borders” (or “Médecins Sans Frontières” if you passed French.) They are a humanitarian organisation that works in countries all over the world, providing medical aid where it’s needed most, whether it’s victims of war, epidemic, or natural disasters. They’re an international non-profit who put patients first before any politics or views. The volunteers are putting themselves at major risk, so they could really use all the help we can give. They are, of course, working in Ukraine due to the ongoing war, but they are still operating in other parts of the world as we speak, their's many countries still reeling from the pandemic, or even epidemics that didn't go world wide. There are numerous humanitarian crisises that don't get the screen time they should, and these kind folks are unfortunately still necessary, so hopefully this event can send some money their way. 

If you’d like to donate I’ve provided a direct link to the website below

https://www.msf.org/donate

 

The Event

 

Now, the fun part. In this event you’re all going to have to work together to ensure that as much money gets donated as possible. I’ve created 16 divisions to attempt, all themed after my favourite doctor: Doctor Who! (it’s my money so I get to choose the theming  ) It's the 60th anniversary this year, so it seems like the perfect time to celebrate the show and raise money for the real life heroes too. 

 

This event is something of a merger of the Bingo Challenge and Gaming for the Animals. This event will borrow the idea of weirdly specific categories from Bingo, and voting from the Animal challenge, but here you'll vote by completing weirdly specific games. 

 

Each category describes a game that I want you to complete. Once two unique players have fulfilled a category, it is now considered complete and £5  is added to the final donation total.

This all sounds easy so far, and fairly similar to that bingo event, but there’s a twist, every person can only submit into two categories, this will mean to complete all 16 categories, you’ll need at least 16 trophy hunters completing 2 different divisions. Everyone can and should say which category they'll go for if you want to raise the most money.

 

If the everyone manages to complete the categories really quickly I may add a few extra choices, raising the maximum donation amount of £80.

 

Now an important question, is this event an excuse so that I can have a badge with Doctor Who elements? And the answer: maybe.

 

Badges

 

Cooperation is the name of the goal, but the game is different, because the badges you’ll earn depend on competition, or points. Whichever completed category has the most points will inform the design of the badge that everyone will earn. The design will feature small titbits about the division that ended up winning. Each of the categories are based on each of the mainline Doctors

 

Regardless of what design wins, to be awarded it, you simply need to complete a game for any of the 16 categories, it doesn’t have to be the winning division.

 

@DrBloodmoney has very kindly offered his abilities as a the badge maker (Everybody thank him).

Also don't expect the badge to be ready as soon as event ends, we could force the our badge maker to make all 16 badges in case any win, but that seems cruel and in an event about supporting doctors, it'll be best not to overwork our doctor.

 

Rules

 

Let’s set a few base rules for the event in general:

 

1. Games must be completed between 20th of August 0:00 and 30th of September 23:59 (UTC)
2. The game can be already started before the event, as long as the final trophy is earned within the stated brackets.
3. Any one person may only contribute to two categories.
4. Any two people can complete the same game for the same category
5. Any one person may not use 2 stacks of the same game the same or multiple categories.
6. A category is consider completed (and donation money secured) when two unique players earn a point in that category.
7. You may contribute up to 5 a category, so in total you can contribute 10 points in two categories
8. Games that get filtered out by the “spam” filter will not be accepted. (Games like Jumping Taco, or Stroke the Dog. But Ratalaika or eastasiasoft are allowed)
9. Auto-popping trophies will be disallowed, (well you can, but if it’s obvious and I notice it’s disallowed.)
10. The completion is about the base trophy list (whether it's a platinum or not), DLC lists are not counted.
11. There will be a “Priority” category, (8th Doctor: play again with a 50th fastest completion time of less than 90 minutes) if a game fits into it you will be given the option to put it into that category instead or not put it forth at all. Also because of this, the point total is halved due to being disproportionately easier
12. You may not switch games from one category to another if it has already been submitted.

 

Specific rules for each category will be given in each section

✅ The Third Doctor - Complete a Racing Game 

Spoiler

The Third Doctor was forced to live on Earth for a good while, he joined UNIT, became a karate legend, but for this we'll focus on the fact that he has his own car called Bessie. Hopefully getting this category to win won't drive you around the bend.

✅ The Sixth Doctor - Complete a Detective/Mystery game

PRIORITY   ✅ The Eighth Doctor - Play a short game 

Spoiler

The Eighth Doctor had very few televised appearances, the most prominent of which being the 1996 movie, which was 89 minutes. See if you can get a platinum before Doctor can defeat the Master once again in a game with a completion time less than 90 minutes.

 

Rules:-

• Any game with the 50th fastest completion of less than 90 minutes can only go in this category, Except for auto-poppable games or games that get filtered out via the spam games
• You don't need to complete the game in less than 90 minutes.
• If you complete the game in less than 90 minutes but the 50th fastest time is slower than 90 minutes, you may add it to this section, but you can also add it to other categories instead.
• Completions or points are halved on this section, you may still only add 5 games, totalling to 2.5 points
• Games released before June 2023 that may become short games, won't be moved into the 8th Doctor only section but June onwards releases can be. But a submission stays whatever the original poster chose in if it was applicable for the non-short section when the Host sees it.

✅ The Tenth Doctor - Complete a 3D or VR game 

Spoiler

This fan favourite Doctor got to experience whole new dimensions, and to see it he wore some very outdated 3D glasses. If you wanna see this badge then you'll need some very expensive head sets, or a keen knowledge of the 3D TV fad of the early 2010s.

 

Rules:-

• Any game that requires VR or has a VR mode that works in the main trophy list, works for this category
• PS3 games that had a "Stereoscopic 3D" mode work for this category too
• Remasters of these PS3 games count too

Romance has existed before this Doctor, and after him, but the Eleventh Doctor is the only one got married (and didn't have their wife swear vengeance on them). Maybe you'll be as lucky in love if you try to get this badge to win.

 

Rules:-

• Complete a game in which you character is able to be in a relationship
• Games with a pre-established romance will Not count
• If it's only optional in the sense that the love interest can die, that will not be counted.

✅ The Twelfth Doctor - Complete a Roguelike or Timeloop game 

Spoiler

The Twelfth Doctor took part in one of the most popular episodes, the plot of which involved the Doctor chisels away at a diamond wall, die, then keep punching away, over and over. That sounds like a Roguelike to me (or roguelite if you're my brother), The Doctor took 4.5 billion years, to get this badge you have... 41 days.

 

Rules:-

• A game which involves a constant time loop or Roguelike/Roguelite will count for this event
• These are games where you have to start again from the beginning when you lose, and have "runs"

✅ The Thirteenth Doctor - Complete a game with a Doctor Who Actor 

Spoiler

The Doctor has been in a number of video game, but the Thirteenth Doctor graced the PlayStation more times than any other Doctor. To honour her achievement, you'll need to do a little research to earn this badge, but you'd be surprised how many games you can pick.

 

Rules:-

• Any game with a voice actor who was also in a televised episode of Doctor Who is allowed
• You need to state the actor shared between the game and Dr Who
• The actors don't need to the main characters of either the game or show.
• You only need to mention one shared actor, not all
• Characters design on actors don't count unless they're voice by that actor (so Lego Harry Potter's John Hurt doesn't count)

✅ The Fourteenth Doctor - Complete a game that you already have completed on a different stack of 

Spoiler

In the centenary special, there was a surprise regeneration from Jodie Whitaker into David Tennant, a previous Doctor actor. It's time to live like it's 2008 again! How about we re-experience some other games, and possibly earn enough points go customised the badge in this direction.

 

Rules:-

• You have to have previously completed the base list before August 20th for another stack to be able to be used
• Auto-pop is not permitted 

 

Participants:-

@DonLin091

@MattbluePT

Stack types:-

• Spoiler

  • Region Stacks: Many games have different stacks based on where the game is procured, these are mostly label with NA or EU, but there are also a lot of Asian stacks. Persona 5 Royal (PS4) has 5 regional stacks 
  • Platform Stack: If you have a PS5 or multiple PlayStation consoles you'll notice that many games are on multiple platforms, the PS5 is always a separate stack. King Oddball has stacks on all platforms. 
  • Physical Stacks: Some games have a different stack if your playing the game digitally versus of the disc or cartridge. The Cube is among them. 
  • Re-release Stacks: Some games get delisted and re-released for whatever reason, occasionally they also have a new trophy list too. The current Sherlock Holmes: Devil's Daughter digital release is a different stack than the original 
  • VR Releases: Some games have non-VR versions and VR versions as separate games, and therefore separate lists. Chromagun is one such release. 

   

   

 

✅ The Fifteenth Doctor - Complete a Puzzle game 

Spoiler

As of right now, little is known about this future incarnation of the Doctor, other than one line that Ncuti get's in the 60th anniversary, and even then we don't know if that's even the Doctor. A puzzle to be sure, maybe you'll work it out if you complete some puzzling trophy list, I'd reward you with a badge if you play enough.

 

Rules:-

• The game needs to be a puzzle game as a focus, these include puzzle platforms and first person puzzle games like Limbo and Portal 2.
• A game having puzzles but not as the focus like Ratchet and Clank are Not submit-able to this category.
• Strategy and Point 'n' Click is not considered puzzle

This time for “Doctors without Borders” (or “Médecins Sans Frontières” if you passed French.)

 

This is the charity Games Done Quick donates to during their Summer Games Done Quick Marathon so I am all up for this event. I donated $50 to them during that marathon.

[GT__Jedi]

Yep, sign me up for the event.  Sounds like a good one!

Well, I can't vey well not try to earn a badge I'm making, now can I? ?

Also, I didn't know that the 13th Doctor was a woman. I have a lot of catching up to do...

In all fairness the two latest haven't had proper episodes yet, 14th Doctor's only getting three episodes in November.

@Breakingthegreen  My Categories will be:

 

The Third Doctor - Complete a Racing Game

 

The Sixth Doctor - Complete a Mystery/Detective Game

You can sign me up for:

 

Fourth: Complete a sport game

 

Fifth: Complete a game in a franchise w/ at least 7 entries.

 

Thanks!

[Han_the_Dragon]

I guess that I can join in...

 

Not really sure what I will play, but likely will go with the lazy way with Datuta, Super Hang-On, Erica, SCG4AP, ABC of Murder, Vampire The Masquerade NY, Secret of Monkey Island or something..

 

Really don't plan to use long games, but I'm still playing Wild Arms and FF16 without a deadline, so, either could be finished during the event (or earlier).

[nashoyo68]

I am absolutely up for another event.

Definitely doing the second category. Unsure what else I will do.

[Xylobe]

I'm in! I used to be big into DW, but I fell off in a big way not long into Moffat's tenure as showrunner. Only fitting that I join for 9 and 10, then!

[pelagia14]

Oh, I love this idea - count me in! I've only watched the runs for the 9th and 10th Doctors, plus the 50th Anniversary, but I love how you tied in each category to a Doctor!

Hm, I've been meaning to get around to the Legendary Editions of Mass Effect 1-3, and those should count for either the War Doctor or the 11th Doctor (optional romance). I'll make my decision on which category after someone else signs up for one of them.  

 

Categories I am considering for my other pick: 

4th Doctor - Complete a game in a franchise with 7 or more entries

6th Doctor - Complete a Detective/Mystery game

9th Doctor - Play a Non-violent game

13th Doctor - Complete a game with a Doctor Who Actor (if my backlog contains any)

Love that you've done this, but I do also find it funny that you missed out the 13th Doctor herself, since the only game's Jodie Whitaker's in are Dr who licenced games,

 

Wanna also say if anyone wants to use Dr Who: The Lonely Assassins for the 13th category, This game is very short and risks only being usable in the 8th Doctor category.

You have no idea how pleased I am that you included him in your research, McNally played Jericho and he's one of my favourite side characters in the show by a long distance.

Well, the category description itself says that Jodie Whitaker has done video game voice acting. ? Though I would have included her had there been games outside of Doctor Who licensed ones, to let others know of potential surprising choices.

Oh, that's awesome!

 

Also, regarding the clip you linked:

Spoiler

Oh gosh, Weeping Angels can come through TVs now?! ?

 

This event is also making me want to stream Doctor Who and catch up on everything after Tennant. Change is hard, though I love Capaldi as an actor so I should just focus on the positive aspects of change. (Plus Tennant is coming back as the 14th for three episodes?! I knew about the casting of Ncuti Gatwa as The Doctor, but didn't realize he would not immediately follow Jodie Whitaker!)

Edited August 3, 2023 by pelagia14

[InfinateEternity]

I love Doctor Who, and the fact that this event is also for charity is great! Sign me up! I can make almost any category work at this point, thanks to the enormity of my backlog. But, the ones that stick out at the moment are:

 

The 2nd Doctor: Play a Rhythm game.

 - This will give me a chance to finish up Theathrythm Final Bar Line

• It also works for the 4th Doctor if needed as the Final Fantasy Series has more than 7 entries.

 

The 1st Doctor: Complete a game with time travel (I've got a soft spot for Hartnell's doctor, as he was the first classic doctor I saw. Though, my first true exposure to the show was the 9th doctor when it was revived in 2005)

 - Plus, what better reason to go back and finally finish Doctor Who and the Eternity Clock?

• It will also work for the 13th Doctor since it features Matt Smith's 11th.

 

So, feel free to put me where ya need me.

Oh, I'd be happy to join and knock out a couple of games I've wanted to do. Especially if it helps to finally get those doctors some borders!

 

The War Doctor - Play a game about a war

- Finally an excuse to get to Crysis 2 Remastered! I'm assuming that a war against aliens still counts as war? Also would love to do some other shooters I've had around for more points!

 

The Twelfth Doctor - Complete a Roguelike or Timeloop game

- I've really been meaning to get back to Echoshift so this is good timing ? maybe Deathloop too if I have time for it...

It's been a week since this event was announced, so let's discus just one country that Doctors without Borders helps.

 

Egypt (please read more here)

 

Refugees fleeing conflict and instabilities in North Africa or the Middle East will often go through Egypt, but the lack of free healthcare puts these migrants at risk of exploitation and most would not be able to get therapy (both physical and psychological) that they need and would otherwise be unable to afford. In 2022 alone they've been able to perform over 20,000 consultations in their clinic in Cairo.

 

The migrant crisis feels a million years ago, but there are still scars that need to be healed, and Doctors without borders do help.

 

Minor Event Update

Not including people who are unsure as to which category they'll vote for, if these were the only contributors, the donation total would be £0, so I am going to throw my hat into the ring, I am planning on adding to the 13th Doctor section with the Doctor Who game "Edge of Reality", I'd stopped playing it before because the Weeping Angels turned up, and I noped out. It contains multiple actors, but of course the headliner is Jodie Whitaker, but this expanded port also adds the Tenth Doctor's David Tennant too.

 

Remember, it's best to say what you'll go for, so everyone can try to plan what they'll go for around that to enable to every category to be filled. 

 

Also I want to add a couple of rules that I hadn't said previously: Once you submit a game, that game can't switch categories even if it fits in multiple, but you can switch what you're planning your category to be so long as you haven't already contributed to two categories.

So, for now I'm going for these two:

 

The Tenth Doctor - Complete a 3D or VR game  - Astro Bot Rescue Mission

The Fourteenth Doctor - Complete a game that you already have completed on a different stack - FlOw (PS3)

It looks like we are actually pretty close to getting all of the categories covered!

 

Since we got a signup for the War Doctor, I've moved myself over to the 11th Doctor to fill that gap. 

 

This brings us to:

DOCTOR:   Gaming Theme:   Participants:  1  Time Travel  InfinateEternity 2  Rhythm  nashoyo68,  InfinateEternity 3  Racing  GT__Jedi 4  7+ Game Franchise   VersusCA 5  Sports   VersusCA 6  Detective/Mystery  GT__Jedi 7  Co-Op  TBD 8  Short Game  Han_the_Dragon  War  War  SeedersPhD 9  Non-violent  Xylobe 10  3D/VR  MattbluePT,  Xylobe 11  Optional Romance   pelagia14 12  Roguelike / Timeloop   SeedersPhD 13  Doctor Who Actor  Breakingthegreen  14  Trophy Stack  MattbluePT,  DonLin091 15  Puzzle`  DonLin091

 

Participants without a planned category:

- DrBloodmoney

- Redblaziken8

- Taruta13

I'm signing up for another Community Event that runs concurrently for much of this event's duration (I Know What You Did Last 13 Platinums). Looking at the games that I plan to play for that, I was planning on picking the 6th Doctor as my second category.

 

However, if no one else is able to tackle the 7th Doctor, I *might* be able to do a Co-Op game later this month. I would only have one game to contribute to that category, so I'd prefer not to sign up for it unless it is necessary for us to reach the 100% donation amount.

Also, @Breakingthegreen, I appreciate the information about some of the work that MSF is doing around the world. Thanks for sharing it!

Worth remembering that we need two people partake in each category to get each £5 donated, with our current list we are at... £15, and even then there's something of an uncertainty. 

 

Love the chart btw, so lovely, so neat, so... getting stolen by me when I update this next.

 

(also if we get done early, I may add some bonus categories that anyone could go for, they would be particularly cruel though)
