benjam138 Posted December 12, 2002 Share Posted December 12, 2002 Congrats Rhindle!!!! Man, that was crazyness. I did make it to the 2nd checkpoint and my girlfriend figured out the note, but it was too late. Congrats again to Rhindle and a big thanks to Snider-man for taking the time to do the contests and letting us Atari freaks have a good time! -Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vetek Posted December 12, 2002 Share Posted December 12, 2002 A Day 12 announcement will be posted in another thread. I hopy you don't reveal too much about the day 12 contest. I think I have a good chance of winning, tho! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glitch Posted December 12, 2002 Share Posted December 12, 2002 That was a blast. Thanks Snider-man. Even if I got there too late it was still a fun trip, and now, I now have an AIM account. (i think) The board got close to breaking it's all time connected record but not quite. Maybe tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcprs1 Posted December 12, 2002 Share Posted December 12, 2002 The part that really threw me was accessing the newsgroup. I have not done newsgroups in years. I was lucky to find a web page where I could get to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoahsMyBro Posted December 12, 2002 Share Posted December 12, 2002 Well, knowing I wasn't going to be in time to take a shot at this contest, I just went into it beginning at about 11pm, figuring I'd go through it leisurely, and once I was done I'd look at the results/answer. WOW! That was an amazing, excellent contest. Sniderman, that showed an incredible amount of ingenuity! I had fun even knowing I didn't stand a shot. It reminded me of my old Games Magazine days. (Just as an avid subscriber, not actually involved with them.) I figured out step 1 easily and quickly, studied the pieces for stage 2 for a couple of minutes and then printed the page out, cut the pieces up, and rearranged them, and then bogged down on step 3. I knew the phrase, but couldn't figure out the alt.games.atari... code. Of course, I was impatient and didn't really allot much time to it before giving up and jumping back to the thread to see what the results were. But I might not have gotten it anyway. I dropped out of newsgroups almost completely once the Dreamcast group imploded over the summer, and except for the sci.electronics.repair group August through October (they helped me repair a 5200), I haven't been back to the newsgroups. So they are completely out-of-sight-out-of-mind, and it's unlikely I would have thought of them. BUT, WOW! Great contest, dude! I hope I have a fighting chance tomorrow.
