I tried not to go with my first thought for each answer because I felt those were too obvious.

I think I did go with my first thought for #3 though.

I mostly went for my first thought, except for 1, which I thought my first thought might be too obvious, and the sequel one, where I realized my first thought just doesn't make the cut.

By non-hero Blizzard character do you think they mean from a story perspective or that all playable WC3 characters are "heroes"?


They said non-hero unit. That would obviously disqualify any actual characters, but also "generic" hero units like blademaster or demon hunter.

"sees #4"

XD

dick move detroit


That category was actually suggested by me, along with #5 and #11. =] We spent a while discussing possible scoring formats... hopefully what we chose works out!

Either way, it looks like you guys can expect a competition every month. The mod staff has some good ideas, so I think it'll be pretty fun!

Do you think there is going to be some reverse psychology here? For example, Mario Bros. enemy, do you think less people would say Bowser over something less known thinking that Bowser is the most obvious?

Yeah, but with the huge list of enemies having appeared in the franchise this is terrible strategy. There are so many available choices and there will be an ample supply of "no one will ever think of picking Bowser!" so it will backfire.

That may be true, but you're going on the assumption that there are many people entering. I know it isn't quite the same, but the previous two contests didn't have a whole lot of entries, iirc.

Even if only thirty people entered I'd still be more comfortable with my odds choosing something no one has ever heard of. Hell, more so! Twenty-nine other contestants and they're all thinking "if I just pick Bowser, haha!" and I go with Padamamay or Pandabear or whatever.

Submitted, I don't think any of my answers are truly obscure or truly common, which honestly makes me fairly nervous. It could work out fairly well, or be a disaster.

At least with the VGMusic one I was confident I did well, though not exceptionally well. On this I feel like I could end up anywhere except exceptionally well, and on the average I feel I'll probably end up worse off than someone who goes for all super obscure answers. ...Not so sure I like that kind of format, but it's worth a shot to see what happens, should be interesting at least.

yeah same here. I was trying to search for extremely obscure stuff for a while but then i noticed that it's apparently worse if no one else picks it? idk really

i didnt get any extremely obscure ones, but no extremely known ones either. We'll see i guess

will be fun to compare choices when this is done

Huh? As far as I can see it's only PC that is out, Handhelds are explicitly mentioned as counting as consoles for this.

That was like ten hours ago. Also, I'm pretty sure he made mention somewhere that you can send in another PM if you need to change anything.

I'm sure a good 50% of this board's first response is going to be MML3 so, there's no real reason for me to bother with that. The other I'm thinking may not have been in the last 2 years, so I'm going to check around for something else.

I think the Pokemon and Goldeneye ones were the hardest to feel confident about. Pretty much all the options are either too common or too obscure so obviously everyone else will jump on them.

It might count for six. I didn't take the chance, but it's obviously banned for 5 because the PC's got like... 20 something years to get five games from a series, so there would be a ton of options for that one vs. consoles with way less time.
