I got another green hopefully I get an orange soon, considering both of CH's tasks could give an orange.

Aw man! That sucks! I hope you get it the next time.

that's the approach i'm taking.  wait out the 24 hours given (we have a month left in the Event, so what the hell, amirite) and save up as much as i can, then right before the timer expires, take out the Giant Stewie with whatever amount of Pesticides needed and get the bonus Blam!

The thing is that after you complete the first challenge, the challenge to earn the second car starts. That one requires you to defeat the Giant Stewie 5 times in 3 days. So in that case you cannot wait the whole 24 hours. I am waiting the whole 24 hours for the first challenge and try to gather as much pesticides as I can. After that I will need to plan well in order to win the car.

True.  i will need to rethink my strategy for Quest purposes.  thanks for the heads up of future quests.  after i defeat him this first time, i should have enough Blam! stored and saved for more go-arounds.

Yeah I'm waiting for the post about it on lfamilyguyaddicts.com  they are currently running through it, so they can advise us what the best strategy is.

I'm hoping I get it the next time round.

Regarding the car, I'm going to defeat Stewie as soon as I can, then when I have the car, I will go back to waiting until almost 24hrs are up to defeat him. On some days if I'm busy I'll just defeat him as soon as I can. I'll do that, unless a better strategy comes up from family guy addicts.

Just got the orange pesticide! I'm going to wait until almost 11pm here until I defeat Giant Stewie. When it gets to the challenge, I'll probably either defeat him straight away, or wait a few hours. I hope I can do this challenge in time, 5 in 3 days might be a challenge, especially as you may not be able to get the stuff in time and would have wasted a day. Does anyone know how much pesticide you need each time to defeat him? I know it starts off at 1, but what are the ones after that?

Since we only have to defeat Stewie 5 times.  I'd say to defeat him as many times as you can this morning, then let the clock expire tomorrow morning.  Defeat him as many times as you can then let it expire on Sunday.  Doing it this way should be easy since you'll only need 1-3-1-3 (and either 1 or 7) of the sprays.  If you reset the timer later in the day you risk it resetting later the next day and using a lot of sprays.  If you reset it tonight, then it will expire tomorrow night and if you reset it Sunday morning - then you will miss the timer resetting and getting an easy defeat at 1 spray.

So, should I defeat him now, to get the challenge come up, considering it is 4pm here, and I would have done it at 11pm? I have 1 orange (colour to defeat him to get the challenge), 4 red and 5 green. Or should I wait to have a few more sprays and start it tomorrow?

What level are you at (number of sprays)?  1?  3?  7?  If it's on 7 - I'd say to let it reset tomorrow.  If it's 3-its up to you.  Technically you only need 1 defeat today, so if you let it reset tomorrow at 4pm, then you can defeat him at least twice at that point tomorrow, then let it reset Sunday at 4pmish - and hammer him twice more.  If you can hit 3 on Sunday that's fine too since the challenge should be completed.

[phoebexlois]

I haven't started the challenge yet, or defeated him once because I only got the colour needed to defeat him a few hours ago (1 orange). Should I defeat him now to get the challenge come up then defeat him again if I can and then reset tomorrow, and do the same thing? Or wait until tomorrow to defeat him for the first time and then get the challenge come up (and have a few more pesticide saved up), and then defeat again etc? (Sorry if this is confusing).

[Carter]

I'd say to get what you can today as long as you can play at this time tomorrow. I don't know how far along your timer is, but if it will reset early tomorrow, you can shoot for 3. I'd say try to get the one or two in now assuming you can play at this time tomorrow.

[phoebexlois]

My time resets tonight at 11pm, so I could do it just after that or when I wake up in the morning as it'll be easier for me to go on during the day than at night/early morning to collect the pesticide because I may fall asleep and not be able to collect as much. It would just give me an advantage on being able to do 2 (if I have enough) and, maybe, 3 defeats in a row.

Edit: I might just do it now actually. Screw it.
Does the challenge for 5 in 3 days come up straight after you defeat him for the first time?
I've decided to defeat him at 6, as CH and Patrick both finish tasks for pesticide around that time, and it'll give me 2 more of whatever colour to help towards defeating him with 3.

Don't forget that the Training Montage Center drops pesticide, if you have extra blam to spare, you can buy another, it takes 20 hours to build though.

[phoebexlois]

I've just defeated Giant Stewie twice, so that's 1/5. But the next colour is the colour I had before so I only have 2/7. I am going to collect pesticide for the next 24 hours and then wait for it to reset. I do keep the amount I have, right?

I think that's the way to go, 7 green sprays is way too much time to collect. I'm also doing this.

[phoebexlois]

Yeah, if I defeat him twice tomorrow, and twice the next day I'll have completed it. I also need to get 7 greens altogether to defeat him a third time but I'm going to get over 4 of each, or at least try, so I have enough for two defeats tomorrow. Then I'll try get 4 of each again.
