Capping pens and sorting chicks - let's play Work Time Fun!

Who needs Monday Night Football when I had Monday Night Phenwah!

(Yeah, yeah, I know it's Thursday, but I was too lazy to log on until now.)

BTW, I thought your Hell Pottery sculpture was da bomb, even if it didn't net you any cash. What was it supposed to be, anyway?

All right, we've got a handful of special tasks and no shortage of new jobs, so let's get st--CHALLENGER APPEARS

Aw man, you shoulda kept going with Three-Legged Race. At that rate, it would have only taken 4.3 hours to get to the finish.

Please don't keep going with Three-Legged Race. It will ruin your friendship. And possibly lives.

Technical difficulties abound!


Something went horribly wrong with Lobst's headset-mic prior to recording the most recent Work Time Fun video and her PC's built-in mic took a dump during the recording itself, resulting in a commentary track that is unsalvageable. Also, Frankie's microphone was muted for a solid four minutes.

We're working on getting Lobst hooked up with a working mic and training Frankie on how to figure out whether he's actually muted or just being ignored, but we're going to have to re-record WTF 09 after we've dealt with those issues. We'll be back before the year is done, for certain.

The original WTF 09 rounded off the $5 jobs with RPS World Championship and Run Like Heck, and brought us into $10 territory with Caddy's Quest, Bouncer Bash, and Candy Shop. We'll revisit all of those jobs, and more, in the coming videos.

Thanks for your patience, and keep those challenges coming in!

Challenge: Make money on Hell Pottery.

And hey, I shouldn't be the only one keeping up at this!

You're not the only one keeping up with it, just the only one mean enough not to think playing the game is hard enough already.

I just can't think of any challenges. *shrug*

Also, it's good to know you guys are working out the technical issues. Looking forward to the next installment! (By the way, what is that .gif from? I've never seen it before.)

I've had a challenge or two go unanswered, so I'll hold off on new ones for now!

Run Like Heck! You'll be seeing it in the coming weeks.

You're not the only one! Here's our list so far:

COMPLETE - Umbaglo - 100 on 4 Fingers
COMPLETE - Soren Highwind - 50 logs in Lumberjack
COMPLETE - Kala - endure Male version of Ramen Timer
COMPLETE - Sky Render - strive for epic failure
COMPLETE - Comb Stranger - time actual ramen with Ramen Timer
COMPLETE - Googleshng - endure 5-minute Ramen Timer
COMPLETE - Umbaglo - 150+ protesters in Demonstration Roundup
FAILED - DreamRedux - kick 25 items with the woman in Karate Superstar
NO ATTEMPT - Sky Render - play a normal game sideways
NO ATTEMPT - Umbaglo - sing the Lumberjack Song during Lumberjack
NO ATTEMPT - Rosewood - earn $2.00 in Mad Dribblin'
NO ATTEMPT - Kala/Rosewood - earn money in Elf King
NO ATTEMPT - Rosewood - score 15-20 points in Lumberjack using big toe
NO ATTEMPT - Umbaglo - earn money in Hell Pottery

Oh, right. And because the game is pretty dickish, you don't need to dedicate a whole video just on Hell Pottery. You can cut out non-winning ones if you want.

Hey, you cheated on my suggestion! Though to be fair, it was kinda a "I can't think of anything good to suggest" challenge...

Ok, I'll admit it. I cheered for Soccer Jesus.

Run Like Heck has a distinctly Super Mario feel to it, what with the jumping and mushrooms.

Hey, I didn't complain when they didn't actually upload the entire video they wasted on the 5 minute ramen timer.

It's probably for the best that there have been no new challenges issued since the last video, because this one weighs in at a hefty 32:30. Also, when I said this wraps up the $10 jobs, I lied -- there's still one more to collect and demonstrate, which means I've got a net to pull.

Well, it's there. So you might as well delight in your hand bells.

Gotta love that Phenwah -once again dysregulating his circadian rhythm merely for our entertainment!

Wow, I was good and indulged in pt. 9, with three answered challenges including the big-toe Lumberjack run. I'll give you your "15 moves" since I was so tickled by it. Thank you.

As for a new challenge? Hmm. Pollinator was a lot of fun to watch, so my challenge is to get a decent landing on one of the platforms at the very bottom of the screen.

I knew I should've checked this thread before we started recording. Umbaglo and Rosewood, I'll get to your tasks next time; today, let's babysit!

You are beating the first level of that shmup mister!

"Ro-sham-bo" (or "Reauchambeaux" when being fancy, because high school) is what I always called the Four Fingers game, and I did in fact play it at school with a pencil when bored. Usually the eraser, but sometimes I was very bored....

Wikipedia has a few names for the stabbing game, but nothing fancy.

Challenge: bull's-eye an apple in William Hell.

Is there more to Space Blaster than shooting at a laserproof captain and dodging (semi) random fire?

Not sure if you did this in video 10, but obtain $4.00 with three consecutive landings in Pollinator.

Today's video only shows two new jobs, but we also caught up on some previously-issued challenges and job requests! Also, there's only two new jobs left, neither of which I've actually unlocked at this point, so keep those challenges coming in! This Let's Play depends on them. D:

Phen cut the funniest part of Matchmaker because he is a jerk. >=(

In the interest of unimaginable torture, I must see not one, but two different completed songs of the handbell game.

Do the casters in Buddha Quest run out of MP?

Personally I was thinking of suggesting a video of all Handbell Delight and Elf King, just for Demo.

Why do you people hate me so much!?
