+cvga Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 This contest is like the game mastermind. I'm thinking of 4 characters from various Atari 2600 games. You have to guess the characters and get them in the correct order. In order to win, you also have to guess the prize (which is also an atari cart). I will pay shipping costs for mailing the prize. Like the snider-man contests, you can only make one guess after each of my posts. When I post I will announce how many characters you have correct and how many you have in the correct position. Here's an example of a beginning guess: Q*bert, Popeye, E.T., Evil Otto Prize: Combat The actual prize is more rare than Combat If it takes too long, I will post hints to help identify the characters. Good luck! Hopefully this will be fun.[/img] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cvga Posted September 7, 2002 Author Share Posted September 7, 2002 OK, good guesses but none of the characters guessed so far are correct. I will admit though that Frostbite Bailey and Roderick HERO were on the list of candidates and just missed the final cut Also, don't forget to guess the prize! It's not a common. Everyone is free to guess again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Mitchell Posted September 7, 2002 Share Posted September 7, 2002 Funny I was just playing real Mastermind with my wife this evening .. And I did have codebreaker in 1978. Now my wife likes it, my daughter likes it and my father-in-law likes it! Mastermind is a great game! Rob Mitchell, Atlanta, GA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cvga Posted September 7, 2002 Author Share Posted September 7, 2002 More good guesses. Now, I'm going to have to look up some of the characters mentioned just to find out which game they came from. Anyhow, here are the results from the last set of guesses: Scooterb23 - one correct character with zero in the correct position Moycon - one correct character with zero in the correct position Remember, you have to have the characters lined up correctly also to win! No one has guessed the prize correctly yet. Everyone is free to guess again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cvga Posted September 7, 2002 Author Share Posted September 7, 2002 Stan pleaded PRIZE: HERO, (please let it be HERO, please!) Alright Stan, if you win and I have an extra HERO cart, it's yours. However, you have to make a decision with your next guess and let me know if you're choosing the HERO over whatever prize I'm giving out. The catch is since you won't know what the prize is at that point yet, you have to take the risk of missing out on something you may have wanted even more.
