That just wins so much.

OMG, that looks like me playing Katamari, only I don't think I wear a mask. Not that I'd notice if someone put one on me.

How big didja have to get to roll up the King? I've been obsessively trying for weeks now, and I can't get him.

I've actually never done it, but I choose to believe that it is possible, if only to give my sad little life meaning.

Of course, it will doubtless take forever seeing as I have yet to crack 2500 meters and he's still freakin' huge...

The necessary size is something in excess of 3000 m. I don't know exactly, and I don't think the game tells you even once you've done it. The hard part is that you have to knock him aside, then find where he landed while the katamari stands astride the Earth like a giant ball of miscellaneous stuff.

It's not really THAT hard. The hard part is rolling up the King AND the Queen in the same run. And there's no real reward for it... just a different message at the end.

In other news, it was only over Christmas break that I managed a katamari of exactly 2 m. My brother told me he thought I was too big, so I rolled up another couple of desks just to spite him and hit square. Oh yeah.

3000? Oh man I will never get that far.

Though that won't stop me from trying. Curséd Katamari.

My secret is to go to the desert island and roll up all the segments of the desert as soon as you're big enough. That's a big size boost in a short time. The Great Wall is also a good target.

Yeah, I do that too. I think a big part of my problem is I just suck bad at the beginning bit, and don't really get a rhythm going till I'm big enough to pick up buildings. By that point I've just wasted too much time on sucking and it's basically all over.
