Snider-man Posted August 20, 2002 Author Share Posted August 20, 2002 WE HAVE A WINNER!!!! Congrats to OESII who was the first to correctly guess the identity of the Mystery Game - 2600 “Radar Lock.” If he’ll send me his address via private message, I’ll fire this great jet-fighter sim off to him. The Clues Revealed (this is kind of like The Mole, eh?): 1. In one message, I used the words “cruise” and “goose.” Remind you of any movies? That’s right, “Top Gun,” pointing to the gameplay of the Mystery Game. 2. In that same message, I mentioned the number 176. Since the serial numbers of all Atari-manufactured carts for the 2600 begins with “26,” just add those numbers to 176 to get “26176.” That is Radar Lock’s serial/release number. 3. My wife’s earring. 24K=golden. From The Netherlands. Add all these up and you get the band Golden Earring from The Netherlands. This one-hit wonder band only had one song that has lasted from the 1970s to today. That song is “Radar Love” – just 2 letters off from the name of the game itself! 4. In another message, I said “Lock this puppy down.” LOCK, get it? 5. I said it wasn’t a Xonox release when you guys started harping on every double-ender variation known. I also remarked about a “Danger Zone.” “Top Gun” hint again, anyone? 6. In another post, I said that someone’s previous guess was “half-right.” Well, if you look at the guess just above this post of mine, you’ll see that Thomas guessed “Radar.” Like I said, he was “half right.” 7. Oh, and my pal “OTTO?” Well, it has nothing to do with Evil Otto. In one later message I even said ‘clue spelled out.’ In other words, it’s the spelling of “OTTO” that’s the clue. OTTO is a palindrome – a word that spells the same forwards and back. Another palindrome - "Able was I, ere I saw Elba." – appeared in yet another message. And – to the best of my knowledge – RADAR is the only palindrome found in an Atari 2600 cart title. I realize that the company XONOX is also palindromic. (I think Debro picked up on the whole palindrome thing.) Sadly, that wasn’t what I was fishing (Ha!) for. Hope everyone enjoyed playing. Watch for yet another Sniderman giveaway in the near future. For the record, everything I’ve ever given away previously has had a rarity rating no higher than 4. However, the next giveaway will be for a 2600 cart with an AtariAge/Digital Press rarity of 7!!! (And none of this “Guess what it is” stuff either. You’re gonna WORK for this one!) Big prize coming up soon, gang! Stay tuned![/b] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oesii Posted August 20, 2002 Share Posted August 20, 2002 Thanks, that 'Danger Zone' clue really put it over the 'Top' And of course, I looked up for half answers so I owe Thomas some credit (is it alright if I just make sure to purchase a Thrust with pedal soon?

Thomas Jentzsch Posted August 20, 2002 Share Posted August 20, 2002 Well if it's the right guess, I feel like I'd have to split it with you Thomas If you are a collector you can have the case and Ii get the board for playing. http://www.atariage.com/software_page.html...wareLabelID=390 Yes, I know the game. I just wanted to know what the clue for 'Lock' could be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wanted to know what the clue for 'Lock' could be. The clue for 'Lock' was in an earlier post where he said we would 'lock' it up soon. And of course I'll play Thrust, I don't really collect, I just have thousands of games which I'll get around to playing some day. -O Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
