I got caught on number 7, somewhat of a trick question.
The trick question part is the minimal challenge.
Numbers 1, 2, 3, & 9 are also trick questions without single definitive answers.
^ i dont mean to be a jerk, but in reference to question 6. You state to name all the games in the article. if that is truly the case than blacktiger missed 2 games in the article. He missed spriggan, and exile wicked phenomenon
He didn't state that. Windy said how the article is titled "A measure of a Turbo Badass" in which "one can obtain a title of ULTIMATE DUOMAZOV-LEVEL BADASS." and then asked "What games are listed in the article?" It could be argued that someone who didn't bother to actually
read the article and simply scoured the page for any game names or pics, might not understand what the question meant. But by that rationale there is no possible correct answer. The "measure" of a Turbo Badass is beating the
listed games. Windy did not ask you to
'list any games mentioned or alluded to' in the article.
This list of
TurboGrafx-16 Games That Pushed The Limits of Graphics & Sound has Super Street Fighter II (including misc SFII ports on MD & SFC), Bonk's Adventure (not as one of the Limit Pushing Games), Bubble Bobble, Cotton (not as one of the Limit Pushing Games), Symphony of the Night, Lords of Thunder (Sega-CD), Dragon's Lair, Donkey Kong Country, Strider (Genesis), [Art of Fighting, Fatal Fury 2, Fatal Fury Special, & World Heroes 2 for Neo Geo, PSX & Saturn], and others. Should those games be included when asked "What are the games listed in the article 'TurboGrafx-16 Games That Pushed The Limits of Graphics & Sound'"? There are also many other games "in" the "A measure of a Turbo Badass" article besides the correct answers and Spriggan and Exile WP.
The whole point of Windy sending people to various PC Engine sites was to get people to check them out and foster the community. He was doing something nice by promoting other people's sites and trying to give an amazing PC Engine game a good home.
The most fair thing he could have done and I believe that all these types of giveaway contests
should have, is a disclaimer asking people not to try to claim the prize unless you have the ability and intention to give the game a serious play through. In this case we're talking about one of the best and most technically impressive ACD games that can always be purchased complete for $15 or less. Most people with an ACD setup and intent to play it should already have it.
It may feel more fair to let everyone know that Windy omitted the beginning of my submission, in which I declined to accept the game if I won and how I was only doing it for fun.
This is why I give spare games and hardware to people I know can make use of them and/or will appreciate them, instead of posting them up for a free-for-all. In the case of this contest, I just won a spare copy of Itouryoden fair and square and just as quickly passed it along. I hope that the person who ends up receiving it doesn't already own it and actually plays it.
