The easiest quest set I have yet to accomplish is AV Club. I recently worked my butt off in order to be anal enough to view five videos the first day they are posted. After that, for some silly reason, I thought I was in the clear. Then I looked at the next quest, which was titled Secret Quest. According to the wording of the quest ("You're either really fast or really obnoxious. Strive for the former... or else."), it seems like you have to be the first one to watch a video on Comic Vine.
Apparently, as I have read in the forums, when you complete this quest it turns into a quest titled First! Sure enough. You have to be the first one to watch a video on Comic Vine. This seems tedious and annoying, especially with the amount of people who are gunning for this quest and the relative few videos posted on a week to week basis. Have I basically completed all of the easy quests and started on the nearly impossible quests if this is my easiest quest set?
I know there's no easy or quick way to complete this quest. Of course, if you're reading this and you've completed the quest and have some hints as to how it can be done quicker and easier, I am all ears. But my point in writing this is to express a little bit of exasperation. I've been able to watch videos before they were even posted to Twitter and I couldn't get this quest. I watched videos before anyone has commented on them. Still no quest.
What does this all mean? I guess I'm in for the long haul. Any time I'm on my computer I need to check the Comic Vine videos page and hope I'm the first to notice. I must be obnoxious, because that's the only way to beat an obnoxious quest such as this.
So, if you're in the same frustrating situation, feel free to drop me a comment and we can commiserate regarding this Secret Quest. If you've already accomplished the quest, feel free to come here and share your success story and drop some hints if you know of a way to beat others to the video. If you're not interested in even accomplishing this quest, drop me a line and tell me why it's not worth your time.
(Keep in mind: I always follow people who comment on my blog, so if you need a follow, the best thing to do is comment. I hope you'll leave a quality comment, but anything will do really. I just want to keep the conversation going. Nobody's dropped me a line in a couple of days.)
