73 people have now seen the second sky

I heard tell that these momentous events get mentioned in the chat ... here's what happens for the curious:

admin[15:40]: Zophos has seen the Second Sky.
Garwarth[15:41]: Someday that will be me
kieranmillar[15:47]: Oh, a skywatcher notification! Are highscores back to verifying or has it been working all this time and I've misunderstood the requirements?
Garwarth[15:47]: That's what they are called?
Nuntar[15:47]: the requirement should be reaching the good ending with caravelnet active
Garwarth[15:47]: Kindof a funny name if you think about it
kieranmillar[15:49]: OK that's what I did. Guess its now working through the high score backlog.
kieranmillar[15:50]: Looks like I wasn't 72nd skywatcher after all.
Crimson Moon[15:52]: oh I never saw the good ending :p nevermind Im not a skywatcher
kieranmillar[15:54]: Yeah unverified demos back under 4000 and I've been credited my master arky-tect challenge.
kieranmillar[15:54]: Looks like verification is back, or was briefly.
kieranmillar[15:55]: I'm guessing the notification pops when the server verifies a demo of someone getting The Second Sky challenge.
admin[16:14]: kieranmillar has seen the Second Sky.
kieranmillar[16:15]: Woo
Nuntar[16:16]: Yay!

Congrats, Karl, and everyone else! That's a huge puzzle gaming achievement if ever there was one.

And thanks to you'r help, I'm #79!


Insoluble: [11:37 PM]: Ugh! Anyone have any hints for MoAR 1N? It's the last room I need
for this level and it's been driving me nuts for the past week or so.
...
Insoluble: [11:38 PM]: Maybe I should start a thread for it.
disoriented: [11:38 PM]: what about 1S
Insoluble: [11:39 PM]: 1 S has a wall (well an obstical at least) keeping one of the roac queens
in. So you can trap her there while you go after the other one.
khrusty: [11:39 PM]: It's not obvious, but the solution is quite close to 1S
Insoluble: [11:39 PM]: That wall becomes a force arrow in 1N making that solution invalid.
Insoluble: [11:40 PM]: Hmm. So can I still trap one of the queens in? She always seems to
escape.
khrusty: [11:42 PM]: I have to remember the precise solution, but the general idea is the same
Insoluble: [11:43 PM]: OH WOW! I think I got somethign. It looks like I can trap her the
other way (moving West). It will take a while, but I think this will work. Thanks
Khrusty!
...
admin: [11:57 PM]: Insoluble has seen the Second Sky.
disoriented: [11:57 PM]: Congratulations!
Insoluble: [11:58 PM]: Yay!
Insoluble: [11:58 PM]: Thanks.
Insoluble: [11:58 PM]: That was my last room for the good ending apperently.
khrusty: [11:58 PM]: Well done!

Thanks again Khusty! your subtle hint is what pushed me to it.

MXM is 80th Sky Watcher!

And, further congratulations to MXM .... he has the
longest reign as "most recent Skywatcher", nearly a month at this posting.

But the question is, are we done? will there ever be 100 public Skywatchers?

I wonder how many Masterers, Post-masterers and Perfectionists there are?

It's kinda work driving the High Scores boards to find this sort of stuff out, but I did figure out that blorx1 has mastered (he/she has 533/533 scores registered), and that Nuntar must have withdrawn himself.

As far as I know post-mastery and perfection (all challenges done) aren't visible - right?

http://forum.caravelgames.com/challenges.php

Click on "Holds" then the name of any challenge to get a list of everyone who's achieved the challenge while connected to CNet (which is, of course, not necessarily everyone who's achieved the challenge).

KDD 2.0 has no mastery or postmastery challenges.

JtRH has one challenge in the Dreamplane (Repairing a Broken Dream), so all achievers of this challenge have mastered. (And no, the 5.0 update is not live yet.)

I plan for TCB to award a challenge for postmastery, i.e. completing all 14 puzzle rooms in the Undercity.

For TSS, I consider postmastery to be completing the "Super Bomberman" and "Rocketeer" challenges. This is much smaller than postmastery of previous holds -- its place has largely been taken by optional levels that are available pre-mastery. The challenges awarded for completing these are "Ballistics Expert", "Who Ya Gonna Call", "Horticulturalist" and "Sharp-Shooter".

There is no simple way to tell who has completed all challenges in a given hold. Clicking on the "Players" tab tells you each player's total number of challenges. Currently there are 201 challenges available, which will rise to 283 when JtRH and Elemental Showcase 5.0 come out.

And for the record, I have mastered TSS, but I've chosen not to be involved in the online high scores. I've started replaying the hold from the beginning, aiming to pick up all challenges, but I got stuck on that one in TRA and just haven't had time to give it another go

One other thing for TSS is that if you go to the hold's page in the highscores and sort by number of highscores it'll show all people with 533 scores.

Excellent reply, Nuntar, thanks.

I wonder if you can find a better place for this post, or one like it to prevent it from being lost in the dustbin of history?

Maybe a sticky thread on the Site board?

and thanks, blorx1 .... I'm getting close!

Poor Chaco, surely some oversight, like a connection issue, to be missing such a simple room.

Chaco lost the highscore due to a change to brain behavior when being pushed. I had to redo the same room because of that change, so it's just a bit of a pain.
