Petition for rook's woods quest to come back!

When I started the game I got the quest and thought it was the BEST QUEST EVER!

For those of you who don't know it was a quest where you were in these creepy woods and you had to navigate around these blocks called "Crushers" which would sap your mood. At  the end there was a rook egg and you could chop it open with your hatchet, pick or fancy pick.

Now that my friends have started I have asked them 'How did you like that awesome quest where you kill a rook egg?' and the answer always is 'What quest?'. That answer makes me really P.O.

Please, help us allow the newer players the chance for such an awesome quest.

potential idea: The Rook Fighting Saga!

  • *Sign.* But maybe it shouldn't be counted as a street in the leaderboards. I don't know.

  • I thought I read somewhere that it was just gone temporarily. The lag problem + precision timing/platforming needed to be fixed, and then it would be back... Or maybe I just imagined that.

  • On slower systems it was impossible to complete.

  • It went away to be improved, as Muncey Mango said.

  • Sign but only if they fix the lag issue. hated having to try to guess where the "block" was and trying to jump something that wasn't there.  It also seemed to have a larger hit area than the graphic so even if you weren't touching it you still died. But it was an awesome quest.

  • I hated that quest. Until my old computer died, I couldn't complete it because of the stops and starts of lag, and I tried and tried and tried. It was on my list for months. Fortunately, I got a new computer and was able to ace it with no problem, but I don't ever want to see that one again!

  • (Moved to ideas.)

    It can't be brought back without some significant changes. It is fun, but it also generated a fair number of reports from people who could not complete it.

  • Argh, you moved it while I was making my comment...sigh...will type again.

    This by far was one of the best quests in Glitch.  It was challenging and moderately hard, and you sometimes had to try it a few times before getting it.  I think most of the quests currently are too overly easy. I get that most are 'training' quests to help you learn the skill you just completed and those should be built relatively easy so anyone can complete it. However, I think a game needs to have a variety of difficulties for their quests.  Some that are easy that everyone can do (status of most, if not all the current Glitch quests), some that are challenging (like the rook quest) that most will be able to do but not without multiple tries, and some that are flat out super hard that most will NOT be able to do.  I think too many things these days are made too easy for the lowest skilled players or those with the slowest computers, and don't provide any challenge.  The accomplishment of a challenging quest provides so much more satisfaction over just wracking up numbers.  Please bring back this quest, make more like it, and make some that are even more difficult to complete.  Sorry some couldn't complete it for whatever reason, but not all quests need to be completed...some should be challenging.
