The DOO-KEY Dash Has Begun. Here's What You Need To Know:

The Sewers underneath the Bored Ape Yacht Club are open and Doo-Key Dashers are apeing into the sewage to retrieve the mystical key from Jimmy the Monkey’s butthole!

On Thursday afternoon, the BAYC took to Twitter and announced that the Doo-Key Dash has begun and that Sewer Pass holders can put on their goggles and dive headfirst into the gutter!

“The sewer is open,” the club tweeted.” Sewer Pass holders, go to http://dookeydash.xyz to Dookey Dash as many times as you want until February 8th.”

The NFT space at large emphatically dove right into the game and even momentarily crashed the site!

Since the game started at 4 P.M. EST today, Twitter has been filled with in-game footage, tips, and commentary of the additive game.

“Dookey Dash is one of those.. ‘ok one last game’ and then 3 hours of your life fly by,” BAYC member NashAhmed tweeted. “The ‘MAYC’ number plate on the jet ski is a great touch! Here’s a sneak peak of a warm up game Now it’s time for me and P-Nut to get to work!”

As many Doo-Key Dasher’s play their first “Warm up” games, some BAYC members are already putting up some insane scores and giving their fellow Dasher’s some tips!

At the time of this article’s publication, the top Doo-Key Dasher score is 307,629 Pts, according to the game’s leaderboard.

Doo-Key Dash scores are determined by the fragments players collect during a run, the Sewer Pass they’re using, and whether or not they used a “Powershart pack," according to the BAYC.

Check out the Doo-Key Dash score calculation table below:

As the Bored Ape Gazette previously reported, Dashers will be rewarded based on how well they score in the Doo-Key Dash.

“YOU'LL GET 3 WEEKS TO PLAY AS MANY TIMES AS YOU WANT,” the BAYC wrote on its MDVMM website. “PLAYERS WILL (BE) REWARDED BASED ON THEIR PERFORMANCE IN THE SEWER. WHEN THE SEWER CLOSES, THE LEADERBOARD FREEZES. AFTER SCORES ARE VALIDATED, ELIGIBLE SEWER PASSES WILL PREPARE FOR THE SUMMONING AND THE HIGHEST SCORE GETS THE KEY.”

The DOO-KEY Dasher will have until the sewers close on February 8th to get their highest possible score. The Bored Ape Gazette will continue to follow the Doo-Key Dash and will keep you updated on high scores everyday over the next three weeks. Stay tuned for updates!
