Go there, there are all the trophies.
I got Resistance commander GO ME. Although I really do wish that I could of done more testing and figured out how to make acids... Melting scrap into rods required math and making acids required more math. I was in the middle grabbing a singularity when Sloth's spaceship exploded in fact, So does that mean that I got flung into deep space?
pfft, well that was a crappy plot. If you're in a prep school you dont have too much time for this crap...
where is the trophies ? no exist?

legolego from Neoboards Wrote:Scoring Calculations

After looking at a lot of user's scores I was able to come up with the following for how much each part was worth.

Click here to see how many points you got.

When calculating your score do the battledome and testing parts first since the points for the main steps varies depending on how fast it took you to complete them.

Main Steps

A series of tubes- 6000 or 8000
Had to complete all five to count. Might of gotten the 8000 if you did some of the mods.

Breaking the Code-?

If you did the mods but did not do the Shuttle Bay Rescue please neomail so I can figure out how much the points were for doing the mods.

Shuttle Bay Rescue-?

I've seen 36,000, 38,000, 40,000, 42,000 and 46,000 points for completing all the main steps. The difference being due to time bonuses.

If anyone has or knows of a user with 44,000 for the main steps please send me a neomail.
The seems to be different point values for completing the main steps. How fast you completed the steps seems to be the factor.

Time bonus for completing the main steps

Upon more evidence it looks like each step had its own time bonus based from the time the step was released.

For each step the time bonus was:
4,000 points for finishing the step very quickly. I'm guessing within a hour less, not sure about the exact timing.
2,000 points for finishing the step within the first three days or so.
0 points for taking longer then three days to finish a step.

This seems the most logical since most people I've seen have 42k or 38k for the main steps.

The first step was released in the news on Jan. 30-a Wednesday, the second step on Feb. 6- a Wednesday, and the last step on Feb. 7-a Thursday. This means the three day time bonus period included the weekend each time (or at least Saturday). Remembering that the news is released at night so for the steps that were released on Wed. the three day time bonus included Thursday, Friday and Saturday. This seems likely since TNT knows quite a few players can only get on during the weekend and this means they could still get the time bonus.

Since the last two steps were released so close to each other and you had to finish the mods before you could do the last step this means if it took you longer to do the mods it took you longer to do the Shuttle Bay rescue too. Thus causing people not to get the time bonus for both of the last steps.

For the main steps everyone who completed them got a base amount of 36,000 points. Then there the time bonuses were added in.
If you got:

36,000-either took you a long time to do each step or started late so you got no time bonuses.
38,000-most likely got the time bonus for step one, took longer to do mods so you got no time bonus for mods or the last step.
40,000-started late or had some odd timing thing with the steps. I have only seen one person with 40k.
42,000-finished all steps with the first three days and therefore got 2,000 for each.
46,000-got the finished quickly bonus for first and last step. I doubt anyone finished the mods within the first hour or so. The symbols were not solved by then and you couldn't randomly guess that fast so they got 2,000 points for the mod step.

I'm sending in a question into the editorial asking about the time bonus.

Please excuse my poor HTML skills. I'll make the page better looking later.

If you have any info on testing limits please neomail me- legolego

A big thank you to all those that have neomailed me and posted on my message board and helped clear up info on the points given for the main steps.

Please do not use this info on your petpage or other site without my permission or without giving me credit
This was from his petpage and i though that I'd post it here.

Prizes are now out.

http://www.neopets.com/space/ros/prizes.phtml

Several weapons, but not as a top prize. Sad Can't wait to see the stats.
ZOMG prizes are out!!
http://www.neopets.com/space/ros/prizes.phtml

The weapons look decent, but they're probably useless. You do get a theme and a trophy, though.

D'oh, scarblade beat me to posting. The theme is decent.
I saw that too, but I think it must be april fools or something.
So i herd that Ylanas Blaster (2nd top prize) does 13 icons.
Ylanas Blaster must be an April Fools joke... It appears to do 13 icons o.o


Sorry for such a large image, but if I shrink it the weapon name comes unreadable Toungue

Edit: A bit more testing and some maths later, and it does roughly a constant 12.6 icons
