There is no way in hell I can do this, where is the save directory for PC, and what must I enter into my file so that I may get the various tokens required to actually progress in this game?

    You CAN do it! Believe in yourself!

    It's honestly not that hard.

    I have been stuck trying Vandalism for five days.

    Five fucking days.

    I once managed to hit the ball and knock over a pile, I've even brought my friend's mouse complete with macro and got a fucking stopwatch out and timed it.

    I refuse to do this anymore.

    You haven't been able to beat vandalism once? Or are you aiming for ridiculous quantities of tokens?

    No, I just want the one, I am even willing to sacrifice any possibility of getting Div to some horrible glitch caused by editing savestates if I can just progress the story.

    Vandalism? I'd have thought it'd be that fucking ball in the hole game, for sure.

    I don't think I've ever lost at vandalism. I believe there's some visual queues for winning easy: I don't have it open right now but I'm pretty sure there's a color gradient on the "aim" bars that have, like, a darker orange area in the spot(s) you're aiming for, or something to that effect. If you're just guessing, you're doing it wrong, haha.

    As for the balls in holes game, you can just stick the ball in the middle and shoot straight up and usually win. Even if you just get 100s and 200s, you'll win, you don't need very many points.

    And for the balloon popping game, you can actually aim passed the balloons, rather than directly at them. So long as your dart's path crosses a balloon, it hits.

    Hope that helps. :D

    No, the goddamn game never, even when the mouse is clicked at the same time as the last(or the previous first rock, or second, or third.) it always is different, if the goddamn game registers my mouse clicks at all(and I only have this problem on the stupid carnival games.), I wouldn't bother to make a thread if the goddamn game would allow me to do this.

    So somebody just tell me where the fuck the saves folder is.

    EDIT:Apparently the game needs to be full-screen to do the carnival games, I was actually able to have the goddamn thing register my clicks when I had it set that way, apparently, when it's in a window it's so scrunched that there is no difference between the various "checkpoints" I am now able to at least consistently hit the same place, thanks for listening to abso-fuckinglutely nothing I said and instead saying the same thing as everyone else.

    EDIT2:Okay, it doesn't work anymore, that fucking figures.

    Just tell me where the fuck the save folder is so that I can play a friend's save.

    Dude, what resolution/video settings are you playing at? Why don't you drop the resolution/detail and try playing. I think you are lagging.

    What kind of graphics card/machine do you have?

    I have a p4/GeForce 6200 AGP and I have to play with detail turned off and @ 640x480 resolution

    Okay, wow.
    First, calm the hell down. It's only a video game.
    Maybe try the spacebar instead of the mouse? I don't know if that'll help but it's how I did Vandalism and I had no problems. You'll still need to press space just before the thing gets to the right spot, there's a little bit of lag there or something.
    Also, jesus h christ don't be such a massive prick to people that are trying to help you.

    I found that the 2 minigames that required timing had to be hit somewhat earlier (almost a second) than what appeared to be correct in game.
    I had the same issue with hitting the block/counter-attacks and the special attack inputs.
