The GA is now over
The "Mystery" game formula makes its comeback
The game consists of successive rounds.
There might be slight variations, but the principle remains the same.
Only one restriction on participation : positive rep (1 or more)
ROUND 1 (game found )
During the first round, there is one key (GOG) on offer, containing one game
Successive rounds may include one or two keys, or a key for more than 1 game
The objective is to guess the game(s) on offer.
Round 1 will last for 36 hours
To enter, just say "I'm in" and mention clearly ( if possible in bold) your guess
mention one game per post
you can post several times, but please leave 2 hours between each post
If a participant guesses the game, he gets it if several find it, first one = first served
if no one finds it by the end of round 1, the game is carried over to round 2
Only one restriction on participation : positive rep (1 or more)
ROUND 2 (1 game found, 1 carried over to round 3, closed as of post 356)
It's a bit of the same... this time there are 2 keys. Both keys contain several games. Unless I'm mistaken, none of them mathes any of the guesses in round 1
ROUND 3 (closed. 2 keys found, 1 uncertain, 1 carried over )
Same rules, except there are now 3 new keys in play, thus a total of 4:
a) carried over from round 2 , 1 key with 3 related items, something about one of the greatest perceived challenges (or boundaries) of our species
b) new KEY, 1 game (found)
c) new KEY, 2 games, not on GOG anymore (found)
D) new KEY , 3 games (suspended)
closes either when everything is found, of in 36 hours.If some games are not found, their name will be disclosed and round 4 will offer the possibility to win them based on a radom draw. Round 4 will anyway offer a random draw of 1 game , in the whole thread
Round 4 (closed)
For the moment, the Sam & Max trio is somehow suspended. I'm ok with an entry for someone else if that person participated and wants the games. For the moment, trying to search the thread returns an internal error for me. So I will see later or wait for an answer.
The key that was left to rot is made of AI war, AI war fleet command and the dlcs. I won't unbundle it but if anyone is interested please post below and mention it clearly. If more than one candidate, random.org will decide.
I will also draw one entry randomly, that will get the guessed game in that entry provided that
a) the member is not already a winner in this thread
b) the entry mentions a game still on gog
in other case, it's simply a random.org iteration.
New entries, made in the next 40 hours will count as well for this draw
I will not be able to connect till then. That's the time left . Cheers !
