| Shotgunnova 02/15/21 11:42:37 PM #136 | I'll keep the final tally and try to tag everyone into the next one, rather than just doing the top ten finishers. Dunno when the next contest will be, but I'm about one-third of the way to thirty, so it may not be too long. Hopefully. --- Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends And watch the city spread out just like a jet's flame |

| Shotgunnova 02/15/21 3:53:02 AM #86 | There's no FFT sequel in the 90s, no. Sayoria posted... It's funny. Looking back, I was like "Man, if Oregon Trail had a sequel, this looks like it's be it...." ... Then I looked, saw it, and was seeing images of that wagon in the BG. Crazy. Never knew that had a sequel.I think the image is from one of the "you have contracted syphilis/dysentery/malaria/whatever" scenes when you're traveling around. Good job guessing it. --- Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends And watch the city spread out just like a jet's flame |

| Shotgunnova 02/15/21 3:50:18 AM #76 | In the normal version of the game, the enemies only have marginally better equipment. The enemy here has WAY better stuff than you'd normally find in shops, so that's why it's smart to steal stuff early. (In some cases, stealing swords stops enemies from using their special skills, but that's not relevant yet.) Of course, stealing when there's a bunch of autobattling teammates going for the throat isn't that helpful, so it's all up to luck. :P --- Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends And watch the city spread out just like a jet's flame |

| Shotgunnova 02/14/21 11:26:16 PM #1 |  RULES
I've run a few contests here where I leave old puzzles "active" for the entire game, but I find that's kind of annoying to keep track of. So, a rule I'll test for this contest is a puzzle is only active for three rounds before it dies. Dead puzzles are off the table and give no points. Examples: When I post the 4th puzzle, the 1st puzzle is then "dead". This means players can hold off on guessing until they get double points, or say things right away for a surefire(-ish) chance at scoring. SCORING * You get 1 point for naming the correct game in the current puzzle. Use specificity where needed. * You get 2 points for naming the correct game in the previous (active) puzzle. Use specificity where needed. * You get 5 extra points for giving a clue that completes the puzzle (i.e. the 25th correct clue) * You get 0 points for giving the correct year, system, or other extraneous info. Only the game's name counts! * You get 0 points for answers that were already confirmed. Points are a "first come, first served" basis. --- Next quiz (there are only three left, remember) very soon!! --- Take me down from the ridge where the summer ends And watch the city spread out just like a jet's flame |
