Did the amount people get for challenges go down for anyone else?

Did the amount people get for challenges go down for anyone else?

I used to get between 50 cents and even up to like $1.50 (though that was a lot less often) when watching 10 ads per game. This is what I just got for 15 ads for most of the games and this new thing where watching an ad when collecting the reward gives me a 20% bonus

And to clarify, getting less started over a week ago for me for the record

Finished Sensational Saga of Sir Stinks-A-Lot

This one is probably my second favorite in the series. As a conclusion, it was definitely really good. Another thing that occurred to me at one point was George and Harold could've teamed up with their future selves but I didn't think of that anymore after seeing themselves as more like how Krupp was, but I guess doing that in the final book made sense, especially since time travelbwas a big thing in the second half of the series. I liked that jab at bad writing due to Old George and Old Harold not remembering meeting their future selves (as I've said before, I love a good fourth wall break) but I even more liked how it actually did make sense because it was Yesterday George and Yesterday Harold that became them.

I also found Mr. Meaner's plan to be the most terrifying evil plan in the series. Nothing is scarier to me than people losing their own free will!

When Mr. Meaner turned into Sir Stinks-A-Lot, I admittedly did think that was a bit random, but I guess Dav wanted to go out with a giant monster battle, which in his defense, you do want to go out with a bang in your final book. I'm not complaining. I thought that was awesome. And they still at least gave a reason for it

I also liked how it ended with Yesterday George and Yesterday Harold deciding to draw a Dog-Man comic instead of a Captain Underpants comic in the end. Not only does it fit with them becoming famous graphic novelists for the Dog-Man series, but it's also symbolic on how their adventures with Captain Underpants are now finally at an end

Although I am curious what their reaction will be if someone snaps their fingers around Mr. Krupp since those two still don't know about that yet lol

That comic in this book was awesome I'll add, though there's a good amount of context missing but that makes sense given the fact that they turned to a completely random chapter haha!

Overall, it was a good end to the first book series I ever considered my favorite :D

Tyrannical Retaliation of the Turbo Toilet 2000

Well, this one also isn't my favorite, Terrifying Return of Tippy Tinkletrousers still holds that honor, but wow! I'd still say it was a great read! I was wondering throughout the book about those eggs and what they hatched into was definitely not what I expected. I also was expecting two of George and Harold in Revolting Revenge of the Radioactive Robo-boxers, but didn't get that, so it was welcome in this book. Was expecting George and Harold to take advantage of them doing all the work when they had that idea but Dav subverted my expectations there (though to be fair, it would've gone on for too long if they did, so I'm glad that didn't happen). And the way the Turbo Toilet 2000 was defeated was hilarious. A poor choice of words led to it. That was funny. Also, Dawn, Orlando and Tony, while a really weird direction to go with the eggs, still looked really adorable

I also finally looked at the cover of Sensational Saga of Sir Stinks-A-Lot, and it looks like they gym teacher is the villain of this one. And given all the jokes in the comics at this guy's expense, if I'm right, I don't think there's a better villain to have for the final book lol. I'm definitely looking forward to reading this one tomorrow!

Revolting Revenge of the Radioactive Robo-boxers is probably the wildest book I've ever read. And I loved it!

So, I'm a big fan of stories where people go through time and am an even bigger fan if it gets insane. And I don't think you can get more insane than this! Three Tippys, two Captain Underpantses, the big bang (big kabloosh) being caused by an even more powerful atomic bomb that was strong enough to destroy the whole galaxy, going back to the age of cavemen and the age of dinosaurs, a chapter telling us they were back to seven pages ago (probably my favorite joke in this book because I love fourth wall breaks (and yes, there are a lot of them in these books lol)). I still would probably say I loved Terrifying Return of Tippy Tinkletrousers more because I loved the backstory and the Wedgie Magee prank, but man, this one was awesome!

I did remember reading online before even Preposterous Plight of the Purple Potty People came out that in an upcoming book, two characters will die (and they even said it wouldn't be one of those fake deaths where they come back later on). My brother kept telling me it was going to be Sulu and Crackers when I was a kid. I kept hoping it wouldn't be but it looks like it was. That had me in tears. Although now that I think about it, it looks like they technically killed off five characters if you count the three Tippys.

I also liked the silent comic book that was the world's first ever comic. That was enjoyable as well.

Yeah, this is the wildest book I've ever read, and it was a great read for sure!

Edit: Also, just remembered they had a moment where you can see a kid was reading this exact book in this exact book, so I take it back. That was my favorite joke in this book because that's just ridiculous and a fourth wall break

Just finished Terrifying Return of Tippy Tinkletrousers

I thought there was no way I'd like it more than Preposterous Plight of the Purple Potty People on my first read, but I admittedly did before even getting one third of the way through the book, and it just kept getting better in my opinion. I loved that I finally got to see how George and Harold became friends in the books. I liked it even better than how they did it in the movie (which I loved the movie for the record, even with how different it was, it was still fantastic). The way George and Harold got revenge on Kipper and his goons was entertaining as heck. I loved the ancient comic they made. Thought that was a nice touch to the plan. I also like how there's actual lore behind George always having a tie and a flat top. That's something I never thought there would be in these books. I was mad at the ending though lol. I'm sure that won't be a complaint after I read the rest to see how it continues and reread the series at some point in the future though

Finally am up to the first of the CU books I never got to read when I was a kid

Series has been good so far. Didn't remember book 6 being as gross as it was so that one's my least favorite so far, though it still was a really good one. My current favorite is either book 3 or book 5

u/RichardForrest06 — 9 days ago

I'm currently reading it while waiting for the books to be delivered (Captain Underpants was my first favorite book series so I am excited to be getting them again!) And I am enjoying the heck out of it!

I can confirm I once had it stop on $10. It gave me the money after the three hour period I got it during was up. I don't know if it'll ever happen again but it did happen once for me
