Oh god. So you have to send answers for each set at a time and not for all 50 pics in the end???
Argh... I'm not even gonna bother now :blink:

Well I am aware of this. It's more my late discovery of the contest that is the factor here :tai:

Good luck to the participating members

Ah, sorry to hear that. Well, there'll be more contests so keep checking back or subscribe to the mailinglist You can still play, its only the first 15 that have been posted, and penalties for being late aren't THAT rigorous!

Too bad the screenshots don't come each night - it takes like 15 minutes to get the answers and double check them and then two days of waiting for the next ones :P.

Showoff.
More like 5 minutes to get most of them and up to two hours trying to remember plots and bit's of the titles so one can double check the rest.

A contest with only five minutes or so between sets would really reward the best gamer and not just people who have far too much time on their hands and spend fours hours plus searching for the game on the web.



Other than that small rant, Im having fun playing this contest (though i probably wont win). Three cheers for Kosta!

Maybe with the harder ones later, but not with the ones posted so far. 2 hours is a looong time though for looking up a game. If you haven't found it by then ...

Once again the time zone issue...I'm like, nine hours behind the board. This is unfair to people in my time zone, and I want that King's Quest collection as much as the next person!

Wha? How is any of this unfair? Is 2 days not enough? If you can't get the answer in 2 days, then you obviously don't recongise the screenshots at all.

Hehe. The problem is that I have the attention span of a goldfish in a washing machine and end up digging up old games I haven't played or heard about and spend far too much time reading up on them.
