gary_danial Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Done with my platinum pyramid as well. Wow got beat by about an hour! Haha. Congrats Andrea. (P/S: Got problem syncing STP trophies, will try syncing again in a moment) Oh well, at least there is Survivor new season premiere to cheer me up for my loss. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't want to presume I won since Gary is also on his last game, but this was definitely the hardest thing I've ever done with regard to trophy hunting. 5 games in 2 nights, all rare or higher. I am so exhausted right now, shaking, headache and so on, but it will be worth it if I won. Either way I did beat my desired time of 8-10 days as I finished after about 7 days, 20 hours. *throws hands up* Well, I didn't expect to win considering how fast these guys work, but damn that's fast. You're a trophy GOD! And I had just completed my third game on the Common Row too. Just platinumed Dragon Fantasy Book II a few minutes ago. I'm tempted to drop out but then again, that would prove that I am a quitter and I don't want to say "The contest is over, absolved of all responsibility!" That's not how you should think as a trophy hunter, and the games I have lined up are great games in my opinion, though I don't know about Buff Knight Advanced. Maybe I can get in 10th?

Well that concludes Platinum Pyramid Season 2 and it was much quicker than the first. Still hope everyone enjoyed the contest even though it was so short lived. Like I said before the contest will be on hold for a few months so don't expect any updates for awhile. I'll be sending a PM to each of you for how you would like your prize and that will be it! I'll update everything tomorrow as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had to reboot my Vita. 2 minutes ago, Triicky913 said: Well that concludes Platinum Pyramid Season 2 and it was much quicker than the first.

I guess I could move the games I was lined up for some other event, like the Spring Backlog. *sigh* Congrats to the winners.

Tried it again just now, I've completed the sync. The trophies are now in my profile. Just want to say that Chain King! trophy probably cost me the win. Haha. After 200th attempt later... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Couch Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Thanks @Triicky913 for hosting. I enjoyed what little time we had together lol. Congrats again to the two winners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrea Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Great showing Gary, a wire to wire finish that I doubt we will see the likes of in future Platinum Pyramids, or virtually any competition of the like. I haven't seen you in any of the other contests on PSNP but you are definitely on my radar in a big way after all of this. One of the biggest obstacles this time around was myself. I spent a good 24 hours after Gary's initial update put me down nearly 2 full games thinking I didn't have a chance and debating giving up because I didn't want to finish 2nd again. It was such a disappointment after the planning I put into it and the effort that I expended just to do what I did the first couple days that I thought about retiring from competitions as it felt like I had lost something. I always remember the bad more than the good and I hadn't won a solo competition since my birthday in October so I was wondering if I wasn't over the hill lol. After some pep talks and reflection (shout out to Alpha/Jeff!) I decided to forge on and put everything into it, but that sort of thing isn't always easy for me. Maybe I've found something in myself from the way this finished? Time will tell, I hope so. In finishing this fast and being able to recover from 24 hours of inactivity surely there was some luck and things going my way. Ether One glitched a lot but never broke completely, the Broken Age platinum was super simple thanks to the speedrun guide on .org, I called a friend on short notice to come over and help me with some of the Madden 12 trophies that required/greatly benefited from 2 players. I was also aided greatly by the fact that I'd played all but two of the games on my list at one point, not just on my old account but also on Steam. This War of Mine, in particular, could've never been done so quickly if I hadn't had tons of experience playing it when it first came out. Also, I was on spring break this week and without that I don't know how I could've found enough time to do all those rare games so quickly. I mean this time two nights ago I was finishing Unravel and four start-to-finish (minus a bit of Madden 12 prep work) platinums later I've got my first solo win of 2017. I locked in so hard for this and will have some catching up to do elsewhere in the coming days, starting with team league updates tomorrow, but it was more than worth it I think. Thanks to everyone for the kind words, and Triicky for hosting this event. One to remember for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still on my common games. I'll continue on regardless. But I guess now I don't have to complete them in that order anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a couple of cheap games and decided to set goals to some more platinums. Probably something like BillyHorrible's Kill Your Completion.

cerafinn Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Congrats to the winners! And so fast. I'm only on the last game in my C/UC row. I'll probably finish that and leave the rest of the pyramid for another time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brian_budokai Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 It's already over and i had some hopes i'd finished my first row at least Well Congrats to @Andrea for beating Gary, but Thumbs Up to @gary_danial as racing this fast forward... I think if anybody has finished 4 games that'd be 3rd place then? Next time we limit a plat each day as a rule ok? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NebbyLunala Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 I decided I'm going to do an unofficial Kill Your Completion challenge - I have 10 games with 0% trophy completion but I can't join the event right now and I don't want to wait until April for the next one. Cheers and congrats to the winners! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
