Thomas Jentzsch Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 The solution makes no sense to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Room 34 Posted February 8, 2005 Author Share Posted February 8, 2005 The solutions aren't supposed to make sense (yet)... don't worry about it. There is no penalty for submitting a wrong answer on the page, other than the momentary ridicule of a "WRONG!" message. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haydn Jones Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 Do any of the carts have alternate names, cos i have double checked them ans am still wrong. also are there and browser settings that could make me wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haydn Jones Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 thomas, did you get past the first one.. cos it seemed to go wrong for me... and did it twice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeepnut24 Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 I checked and rechecked multiple times and I still have the wrong answer??? I gave up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Tyler Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 #17 was easy for me, as that's the only Atari 2600 game's serial number that I've memorized! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimeric Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 It doesn't seem to work for me either. I've noticed two possible entries that can have multiple answers (#4 could be four different things; #9 could be two different things). I tried all of them...then tried changing them all to caps. *still* didn't work. I've triple-checked all the part numbers: google, atariage's list...hell, I even stumbled (via google) onto room34's page listing the games he's got and matched up the part numbers there.

Lauren Tyler Posted February 8, 2005 Share Posted February 8, 2005 Uh OK, I don't get this one bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Room 34 Posted February 9, 2005 Author Share Posted February 9, 2005 A few of you have emailed me, stumped on the first challenge. Oh boy! I think most of you are getting the basic idea; if it's not letting you though, think very carefully about the game titles. You may be overlooking possibilities. That said, I must sincerely apologize, as one email has made me discover a mistake on my part! ( What can you expect, I put this whole thing together in 3 1/2 hours!) The number accompanying CX2664 should be 2 not 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimeric Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 "The number accompanying CX2664 should be 2 not 1." Ah ha. Much better. Got it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Tyler Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 What do the numbers mean specifically, though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Tyler Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Oh never mind, but did you have to choose games with multiple titles?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yuppicide Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 I give up. This sucks I can't get the first one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Room 34 Posted February 9, 2005 Author Share Posted February 9, 2005 I give up. This sucks I can't get the first one. C'mon, where's the can-do attitude that made this country great? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yuppicide Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 I typed in what I thought was right and it's not right. Does it matter if it's all CAPS or not?! #4 can have a few answers, but I tried everything I can think of. I give up. This sucks I can't get the first one.

gospeedde Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 You just sucked a couple of hours away from my life. Now I'm stuck on part 5. I only got one of them, though I should know at least five others. There's a slight possibility that I could figure out more later, but I don't think I'll ever get them all. It's better than grading spelling tests, though. =fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Room 34 Posted February 9, 2005 Author Share Posted February 9, 2005 I typed in what I thought was right and it's not right. Does it matter if it's all CAPS or not?! No, the answers are not case-sensitive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Room 34 Posted February 9, 2005 Author Share Posted February 9, 2005 Now I'm stuck on part 5. Already to part 5? Man, I have to make these things tougher! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimeric Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 I'm on 5 also, and it's giving me a headache I've got 7 of 'em, but I'm scratching my head on the others. (and scratching my eyes...I think my eyestrain is telling me to put this down and look at it again tomorrow... ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Propane13 Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Stuck on 1 too. Should the end thing spell something (like, in English)? Mine's like FHQWHGADS; I'm not really sure what that means, but if I drink a little more, maybe it'll mean something. Is drinking a requirement for this contest? Seems like #2, 3, and 4 must be easy, b/c everyone here is either stuck on 1 or 5... -John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
