Tharron: does mine count? do i win something xD :P or am i discualified cause i stole his (sorry! :/ didnt wanna steal the fun!)

Good thing you did steal it, I'd have fallen over at the bad date story since I've never had one (or a good one for that matter)

Aliasalpha: I suppose I'll have a go too if you want to pose a challenge

cole: Well tharros kind of stole yours so....you challenge me. Whenever your ready.

Hmmm okay lets see how nerdy I can get... I want:
1: The name of the actress originally cast for Captain Janeway on Star Trek Voyager and the name of the 1984 film she was in with Clint Eastwood
2: An explanation of the mechanics of THAC0 in 30 words or less
3: A screenshot of the C64 version of Friday The 13th, ideally one of the "OMG!! MURDER!!!" surprise screens when you discover a body
4: A photo of a mist covered path by a lake
5: A photo of something that references schrodinger's cat in an amusing way
6: A joke that ends in a groan worthy pun
7: A photo of a cosplayer who actually looks like the thing they're trying to be and not just a sad loser in a lumpy suit made of cardboard

Haha. This great musician, boiled down to that. You know what? I can't argue, because that is exactly what he did. Well, it was the MS river, whatever. haha
Microsoft have their own river??

Holy @#%$! You win. I'm such a wuss that I just admit defeat. I mean "the mechanics of THACO"??? Who's cat? I'm sorry. I can't do it. I'm drinking some Samuel Adams and enjoying life....haha..Pick a game. Couldn't you just ask me to name The Ramones or something?
THAC0... that's a DnD thing, isn't it?

Aliasalpha: Microsoft have their own river??

haha. I'm sure they do, but i was referring to the mighty Mississppi. I live about 45 miles from where he drowned by the way.

Hahaha sorry man, I was in a nerdy mood.
If you don't mind doing a $10 game I'd not object to finding Obscure in my inbox (I'll have to look up a $6 one if you don't want to spend too much). Email is my gog username at gmail.com.
Cheers mate

I was tempted to post a screeny from Silent Hill 2.

This girl looks pretty much exactly like a character from.. I think it's Final Fantasy MDCLXVIII or MDCLXIIIX or something.

VERY nice. I especially liked the schrodinger's cat.
Cole, I got the game, thank you. You're a prince amongst men / Princess amongst women / Gender Neutral royalty amongst gender neutral non-royalty

cole: No need to send money sir. You explained it and I'm happy with that. Like I already posted, I'm very sorry if I was wrong. I think almost anyone would jump to the conclusion that I did. If I offended you I am truly sorry. i wish we had pm so I could have asked you about it. I guess I jumped the gun. It's all good here.

Well, I guess that your conclusion would be the most plausible, at the moment. So that's okay. It's all good here for me too.
I wonder when GOG is going to implement a PM system here...

Let me stress that I believe what you posted. I'm in the wrong for posting something without really thinking clearly about it. I apologize. I think it's human nature to think the worst sometime. I learned a lesson.
