1/128 Proofs : COMPLETE!!!!

Here I will show EVERY 1/128 proof. I got them all, and because of it cruised through the game, with nothing but bashing, which helped my No PSI challenge.

Without further ado, here they are, every proof:




That is EVERY ONE! they may be a bit out of order as far as the picture order goes, but they were gotten every day during each GPP. I am fully up to date now. And I guess this Blog will have to shift gears and take on another purpose until next EBFGP Summer. I leave this challenge, asking everyone to go and have a absolutely Funktastic Summer.

July 11 - July 15

July 9 - Scaraba

Today was also relatively quick for a GPP. I made my way through the tomb, got everything for the challenges, and only never complete one challenge, because I wanted to save the experience so i can maybe get the big boost from Magicant (which is highly doubtful at the moment).

Anyway, heres the challenges:
  • Fight 10 Master Criminal Worms. Without green swirls. Hah, you thought we'd make it easy? - Incomplete (Like I said, im hoping to not be at level 99 so I can get the big boost from magicant)
  • Don't use PSI to cure any ailments. - Complete
  • Collect EVERY item in the pyramid. - Complete
  • Don't let anyone get killed. - Complete
  • Give Poo all your best items. - Complete
  • Win a Kraken Soup from a Beautiful UFO. - Complete
  • Find Pokey's dung. Say, "Hey, Poo! It's your brother!" - Complete
They were actually very easy to do so I did get most done, and I would have gotten the other done if I wasnt looking for that boost later on.....maybe later if I get the chance.

Anyway, thats all.

July 6 - Rainy Circle

Alright! Today was actually easy, all of the challenges included. I was finished them all in under a half hour, which is very quick considering there was a 1/128 item in the challenges.

Here they are:
  • Have Shrooom! "mashroomize" your whole party. - Complete
  • Buy all the new equipment in Summers. Fight enemies on the beach until you have enough money. - Complete (Easy, the 1/128 challenge means I have lots of money. Over $500,000 to be exact)
  • Buy every item at the restaurant. Be sure to read all the Help descriptions. - Complete
  • Fight Tough Guys on the beach until you get a Chick from one. (Success at this challenge entitles you to call yourself "The Ladies' Choice.") - Complete
I should probably show proof for that last one So here it is:


  • Spend 10 nights at the hotel. Giygas can wait. - Complete
  • Memorize the "Didactically speaking" line.
    Then say it to someone today. - Complete (video posted on the blog page)
  • (1/128)Mighty Bear Sevens drop Super Plush Bears. Win one! - Complete
  • (1/128)Mad Taxis drop Xterminator Sprays. Win one if you didn't already in Fourside! - Already Complete from previous challenge.


And now that the proof for that is up, I am finished this post! Im gonna try to get some more youtube videos up for the EBFGPS, which by rights I should have been doing all along. Oh well, thats it. Later!

July 5 - Edisnoom

As much as I would like to say that I completed todays GPP, I cant due to my 1/128 challenge.
Because I get all 1/128 items before going on with the GPP to complete it, I have not finished, and have yet to get either 1/128 item for this GPP.

I will continue to work on this point through tomorrow, and try to finish both points once I finish it.

Thats all for this post, but I will keep trying to finish this point as soon as possible.

1/128 Proofs to Date

Alright, like I said in my last blog post, I'm going to start posting all of my proof that I have actually won the 1/128 items, this will make it more believable than if I simply say I have acquired the items.

Im going to start by showing all the proofs up to date, and then each time I acquire a new one, include it in the post for that GPP.

Here they are:






And thats every proof up to this date. When I get more, I will update them inside the GPP posts, rather than creating an individual post each time. That way I will have a quicker time updating my blog. Alright guys, Later!

July 3 - Department Store (Continued)

I finally got the two 1/128 items today so I did get the chance to finish the GPP and because its a thursday, no new GPP was started. :)

It did take a while, but anyway, here is the challenge list from this GPP:
  • No Bottle Rockets or Bombs against the Store Spook. - Complete
  • Fight three of each enemy in the department store. - Complete
  • Only use alpha PSI. - Complete (No PSI)
  • Store away your Franklin Badge before Paula gets kidnapped, but hang onto the Pencil Eraser. - Incomplete (I completely forgot to do this as I was too wrapped up in the 1/128 Challenges.
  • (1/128) - Mad Taxis drop Xterminator Sprays. Get one! - Complete
  • (1/128) - Musicas sometimes drop Sudden Guts Pills. Win one! - Complete
The challenges were actually very easy for this GPP with the exception that there were two 1/128 challenges to complete.

I think I'm gonna start a new post with all of the proofs from my 1/128 items that I won since I have now finished this GPP. I guess thats all for this update.....Later.

July 3 - Department Store

Today I started the next GPP, but due to my 1/128 challenge, I was unable to finish it, as the Musica enemies only appear for one specific instance. As well, after fighting several hundred (must have been at least 400) Mad Taxi's to no avail, I must put in more effort tomorrow, and finish two GPP's if possible.

I am going to stop for the night as I have to work in the morning, but when I get home tomorrow, I will work towards finishing these GPP's, which is about all I can say for now.

My EBFGP Challenges Thus Far

For those of you unfamiliar with it, EarthBound is a video game released in 1995 by Nintendo for their Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It defied the set route that all other RPG's took by setting it in a real life world like our own. It is basically about a young boy who along with 3 friends he meets along his journey, must save the world from an alien invasion.

The EarthBound Funktastic Gameplay Summer is an event hosted by Starmen.Net where many players from around the world gather to play the game together to keep the spirit of the game alive.

Each day a new gameplay point is given where you must reach and go no further until the next day's point. Challenges are included in this to make the gaming experience more enjoyable, which is basically what this particular blog will show. I will show a list of all the challenges given thus far, and will show which ones I have completed, giving proof if and where possible.
