I'm rapidly approaching the 1000 rep mark, and the 4th star it brings. I feel I should play a bit more Panzer General in preparation for the next star. So, a celebration is in order (as usual).
First, up for grabs:
2x $9.99 GOG bonus codes.
1x Steam key for Hotline Miami, since I already have it.
1x Humble Indie Bundle 8 BTA gift link. Requires answering the HIB question.
How do you qualify? Post here naming what you are aiming for. Forum regulars are automatically admitted, non-regulars should answer one (or more) of the following questions. Forum regulars are also free (and encouraged) to answer one or more of them as well. If you are unsure about being a regular, just answer one or more of the questions.
Clarification edit: How do I tell the regulars from the non-regulars? More or less a "How often have I seen this user in the forums?". Thus the asking of questions, to have the shy or lurking users participate a bit more in the forum. Who knows, they might even like it ;)
So, the questions:
1) Tell me of an "Oh God, how did I fail that bad" or "In your face!" experience you had in an FPS game.
2) What control scheme that has gone at least up to the prototype stage would you like to use for a game that doesn't support it, and how would it make the game more entertaining/fun. Clarification edit: Examples include the WASD controls for Wolfenstein 3D, Joystick support for Starfox, or the Artemis Starship Bridge Simulator for FTL. The prototype stage is so answers like "Psionic control for The Incredible Machine" won't be accepted, unless there was an announcement I missed ;)
3) Are you (or were you) active in a research field? How did you become involved into it?
4) One classic and one new release on GOG that really excited you, and why?
5) Do you know about the GOGWiki? Why haven't you been active there yet? What page of the Wiki do you think you could "adopt", to make sure it's correct and up-to-date?
HIB Question: Why can't you grab the Bundle yourself? Is it due to lack of cash? Unsure about the games? Trying your luck to grab it for free, but in case Lady Luck isn't by your side, you'll grab it either way? An entirely different reason?
So, a little clarification for rules.
Enter for one of the prizes. Makes my life a bit easier.
Enter for yourself. I'll send you the code, you do with it as you wish, but I'd prefer if you don't do a giveaway with it.
Answering the questions isn't mandatory, I'm just curious. No extra chances awarded if you do answer them.
Giveaway ends once I notice I'm at 1000 rep or more (34 rep needed, so at least a week) or on July. The bonus codes expire on July 13th, so I want to give them with a bit of time to spare.
