I count 6+5+9+8+6+10+2+6+6+9=67 (according to the scoreboard I have 12 points regarding SET 6 which gave max 11 points :blink: ) for me, but that's not important and probably based on my PMing problems (e.g. I just saw that one PM came back - "This message was sent to Luchsen" :blink: ). Splendid choice of screenshots/games and an entertaining contest! Can't wait until the next one!

P.S. Already played three games which had interested me.

It's why I asked Kosta from time to time if he got all my answers so far - to avoid running into surprises at the end when turns out he didn't get a set.

I'll start working on the contest tonight but I'll leave some time before posting it . I still have to find some cool prizes to give away - I have lots of older games and even some rarer ones twice (like System Shock). I doubt there will be an ipod though ;-)

I _KNEW_ it! I sent a PM in response to sets 8, 9, and 10 and the stupid message board ATE IT!!! I was suspicious when I didn't see it in my 'sent' folder, but I didn't want to send it multiple times! That's at least THREE points I would have had!

Correction, FIVE points!!! Stupid message board...

You could always give away the iPod you just won!!! (By the way - I'd be happy to trade my game for it! Only 2 points - ARRGGHHHHH!!!!!!!)

Haha sorry - but then again, I lost a few points because I hadn't dared guess Homeworld despite being nearly sure of that game and because Highway Hunter was not counted as the right answer despite Highway Hunter and Highway Fighter being virtually the same game :P

EDIT: Oh, and lots of thanks to the folks at PCGamer Forum and the DOSBOX crew and guys hanging out on IRC for helping me with some of the answers Saved me a lot of time which I didn't always have.

Man, I don't know wether you lot should play less games or if I should have played more Congratulations to the winners.

Oh, maybe the winners should have their name on some High Score list like they have on the real old games like the archade games? you know: Really pixelated graphics with lots and lots of flashing colours
