Now You See It with careful eyes - VGF

**S1x** · 12-21-2007, 03:40 AM

The following words are either very common, too long, or too short and were not included in your search : now, you, see, it

Sure, make me find the previous topics manually, blah, I hate you search feature.

Um, welcome back to the game where every single answer to every question I ask is right in front of you. It is time to start...

(Coolness? Tell me this was worth the slightly over an hour it took to make.)

Topic 1
Topic 2

This is a very simple game that seems to be pretty popular; I hope to have even more different players than last time. Anybody can play at any time; no official "joining" is required. I will ask you a question, and you have to look at the board I put up and find the answer somewhere in there. The first one to give me the correct answer gets points, and when we reach 1000, I crown a winner. You'll also learn quickly by example, but if you want to know more now, check out the previous topics. First, though, I'm going to mention this new option you have:

Pairs of people

At any time during the game, you can join up with one other member. As long as they agree, both of you will form a two-person team. Your scores will be averaged, but after that, you will earn points together. If one person decides to split up for whatever reason, then say so and I'll grant your request; you will not lose points by doing this. (Note that you may not be able to split up until a while after forming your team.) This is completely optional; if you want to go solo, go solo. I would like having double the chance to earn points, though. Also, at some point during the game, all teams will be automatically split up and it will be everybody for themselves.

So anyways, time to start now. First, we need a board with plenty of answers on them. And luckily, I have one right here.

Before I start asking questions, look up there and see if you can find a word I may use as an answer. When you see a good one, post it (no need to say where it is). If I use it, you'll get 5 bonus points. However, if you're the one that gives the answer at the right time, it'll jump to a 25 point bonus.

This is also a good time to form teams since everybody has 0 points right now, except for Fnord. (He has -200 points; to encourage new champions, the previous champ must earn more points than everyone else.)

Also, if there's anything even slightly unclear, just ask me and I'll give you an answer you'll be satisfied with.

Edit: I may not be able to look at this topic again until late tomorrow, so just in case, the cap is 10 "predictions".

I like the animation. I love it. Especially how it's orange and I think the words in it are great. Very nice. Time well spent.

Hey, ZG, wanna be my partner (hehe) and average our scores for a while?

HELLZ YES!

Oh, and S1x, the animated boards IS FREAKING AWESOME!

***Swordmaster Link*** · 12-21-2007, 01:43 PM

For a second I thought the animated board would be used to find answers. That would be sick.

United Nations · 12-21-2007, 01:58 PM

^Heh, I wouldn't be patient enough for that.

^^Yay, thanks, ZG! This way we can cover two time-zones.

Sorry, Marchie, I love you, but we're online at the same times.

***CaptHayfever*** · 12-21-2007, 04:03 PM

Plea.

Let's do this. LEEEROOOOOOOOOOYYYYYYY JENKIIIINNNNNNSSSSS!!!!!

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

**S1x** · 12-21-2007, 10:29 PM

Alrighty, time to start the first question of game number 3. Here we go...

Remember, to answer these questions, first give the line number the answer's on, the position number the answer starts at, and then the full answer.

Next:
What may a door do after a couple has been arguing?

United Nations · 12-21-2007, 10:31 PM

**S1x** · 12-21-2007, 11:12 PM

You're on the board; good job.

ZG/UN: 10
Captain Namechange: -200

Oh, you guys also have the opportunity to attempt the Now You See It mini-puzzle I made, since I've gotten so few responses. PM me your guesses on what you think the answers are to the 16 clues on the board right here.

1. An interesting accomplishment
2. Boss who keeps his eye on you
3. Just a quick bit of time
4. Strategic Tetris play
5. Desperately needed zombie paper
6. Goozack
7. 14 lines
8. Taxi cab that can profit you
9. May be caused by a pyromaniac
10. Press it if you missed something good
11. Exactly my thoughts
12. A blue one is good for proposals
13. Between the C and D
14. Represents life
15. Energy related to heat
16. Wish for pain

The one with the most correct answers will not only get the reward I promised before (some cool thing in the VGF RPG or a Wii Virtual Console game of their choice), but also 25 bonus points in this very game. 5 points will go to anyone that attempts it as a constellation prize. The deadline for your answers is a week from this post.

Try that while you're waiting for the next questions in this topic, maybe. For now, I'm moving on to this.

Next:

**Cinco de Marzo** · 12-21-2007, 11:31 PM

Line 4, Position 2 Rest

**S1x** · 12-21-2007, 11:39 PM

No, it's definitely effort. To explain the scoring, add up the line number and position number of that answer and you get 4. Therefore, that one was worth 4 points. Simple enough, right?

ZG/UN: 14

Sorry, but that's wrong. You're locked out for 3 hours or until the next question.

Mandark

***CaptHayfever*** · 12-22-2007, 11:51 AM

Line 5, Column 1: Cobra (Commander)?

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

**S1x** · 12-22-2007, 01:59 PM

Mandark is the correct answer. Add up the 1 and 12, and you'll see that was worth a good 13 points.

ZG/UN: 14
Microphone Kirby: 13
Captain Namechange: -200
