Congrats. Even though I just found out about this contest, I rigged every poll so we'd win. No need to thank me.

Oh man I totally forgot about this. We still doing karma or is that a thing of the past (you knew I would ask)?

Well yeah but you had to have been on the Internet, somewhere, to get your e-mail, right? Anyway, congrats.

So, not including any potential daily doubles, if Ron, who's in second, was to get every single available question right, he'd still be $400 short of a tie. I really don't think a Final Jeopardy would change things.

Ok I don't want to waste my time here anymore either, but I don't want all the questions I made to go to waste. I had some I kind of liked. Here they are if you were curious.

The Genesis went by this name in Europe and Japan

This dragon replaced Crash Bandicoot as PlayStation's mascot in the PSX era
It's a-me! (Mario)
The blue bomber
GET OVER HERE

So congrats for staying online 24-7 Matt and winning the SZ Video Game Jeopardy Contest.

Thanks. Is there a way to condense that box though? All that text is still pretty much the same size as it would be without spoiler tags.

Neither. I don't eat that stuff.

Before consoles became readily accessible at home, gamers went to these to get their fix

What happened to the SZ awards, too? Completely irrelevant I know but this topic reminded me.

yeah whatever

that's right

So I was trying to make the 100-some-odd rounds of Name the Game to be hidden in a giant spoiler to save a little space, but all it hides is the answer and it leaves the round number. I have to admit it's pretty cool that it's possible to only hide the answer, but is it also possible to hide everything, or maybe have a choice of what you can hide when you use the tags? (Chris if you don't know what I'm talking about try it yourself and you'll see what I mean.)

Well I don't know if I'm serious 'cause it's not my list. I never bothered to finish Zelda II and I've heard scary things about Ikaruga, Ninja Gaiden, and Battletoads. But I do know that GX took a lot of patience.

Well it's not any of them.

Hint: it's an action game that somehow involves Spartans.

I know, right? I'm thinking of just transferring all the points and saving myself some time.
