Contest #54

[Ethanol]

Have you ever wondered what a Chinese boy who grew up in Kansas does during his spare time (other than the porno watching of course). Well, I'll let you in on the secret.

Sooooo... I recorded myself playing a few of my favorite games, and a few of my not so favorites. Your mission is to figure out what games they are. Some are very easy, some are not so easy, and hopefully some are damn near impossible :P

Just so everyone know, I had a lot of fun making this contest, and I hope you have even more fun doing it, because this is my life we're talking about!!

Example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSOT1DiGapk
The game is Mario Kart 64, and that's what is required as the answer. There are a few different Mario Karts with different names, so the exact game name must be provided as the answer. Also, if the game was Tekken 3, then Tekken 2 will not be accepted as the correct answer.

The due date for submissions will be Sunday, Sept 30th, at 11:59pm PST.

Prizes:

1st place = 100,000 vbux + they get to decide what category the next contest will be
2nd place = 50,000 vbux

Don't forget tho, these contests do count towards the divisional ladder even if the thing hasn't been updated in ages.

So, without further delay, here are the links:

Oh yea, just a heads up, the sound in those is very loud, for your own sake, start with a very low volume and work your way up.

Also, give me the song titles and artists for games: 8, 16, and 19. They are also worth a point each.

20 games + 3 songs, that totals to 23 total points.

If there are any inconsistencies between the youtube numbers and the batch files, say something and I'll fix it asap.

I await your submissions :P

BTW, I suggest watching the all of them completely, even if you do know them.

[Analog]

Now we just got to look at what version of each of those games are. Also we need to songs for: 16, 19. For #16 that must be a game for the SNES(maybe)...

EDIT:
12 is Yahoo! Sports Fantasy Football(Just made a team and checked it out.)

19: Is actually X-Men vs. Street Fighter (http://youtube.com/watch?v=6hQiJG8DiP4&mode=related&search=)

5: Has got to be Madden NFL 07 since it shows Reggie Bush as a rookie.

2: World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade(Has got to be, shows a level 70 in there lol)

[ghey b]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4h3HAWw9aXU

also figure out that 18 is samurai showdown 4
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fJ7N1fawZgw

http://youtube.com/watch?v=rVSrCAUPrCk

[Ranger]

Wow, that was quick! I'll get on the songs, right away.

Okay, I'm double checking the others, as well. :)

[Analog]

Yeah I am not really sure for the songs but as JB said: Try to get some of the lyrics and search google...

We are so close!! Yes I am at least 95% sure we got all these so far :)

[Ranger]

Damn! Those lyrics are sung so fast >.<

[Ethanol]

Wow....I go to bed and I come back and everything is almost finished. lol

I'm glad to see that some of my guesses were right. XD

[Milan]

10: The Legend of Zelda

Just that as the title, it's the 1st Zelda ever. It's already listed like that on the front page, so no prob.

[Kazmiz]

Wow....I go to bed and I come back and everything is almost finished. lol

I'm glad to see that some of my guesses were right. XD

Rofl. I didn't even get a chance to read what the contest was about.

[Ethanol]

10: The Legend of Zelda

Not to mention one of the greatest zelda games ever. :)

[Milan]

Isn't 15 called: Super Mario Bros. 3?

[ghey b]

this means that in order for us to have a chance at first place (since they submitted first) we MUST have all our answers right! so please everyone double check, & triple check!!

and lets get these last 2 songs ^^

[Analog]

Damn I am positive on the games but I have no clue on the songs... Please people lets get this done...

[Neko Xab]

I got the song for #16. It happens to be one of the songs my boyfriend wanted on a CD... I knew it was familiar and checked through all my song files.

The song is YOU - YURIA

[Ranger]

[Harvey Dent]

Threads over gentlemen you can all go about your business again. (Damn didn't even get to start this one.)

[Analog]

How is it over? We still need this last song to submit!
@Ranger Good find :)

EDIT:
I just listened to every song that was posted there, and none of them matched up :(

[ghey b]

Threads over gentlemen you can all go about your business again. (Damn didn't even get to start this one.)

yea what are you talking about it over? we havnt submitted

[Ranger]

C'mon guys! This last song could be the difference between winning and losing. Let's try and find the last song.. :D

[Analog]

Come on lets find this song!

This is all we need, if you don't get it I am sure someone else may have gotten them all right, we can't give up on this contest when we are soooo close!

[Ranger]

'aitai aitai omoichi nomura hata do ga hi da hi ge da da ga na hi da ma arigatou giita ishii na ute guuu kara.'

some lyrics. though i don't know when they're split and stuff.

*doesn't know anything about jap*

[Analog]

Thanks for those ranger! As you know we both looked for stuff from it but I couldn't find anything, I seriously listened to at least 30 jpop songs with words from that ahhhh.... Anyways lets get this last song! Lets keep looking!

[ghey b]

if we dont get this last song theres no chance at first place

so lets do our best! ask all your jpop loving friends!!

[Analog]

Ugh we can't settle for a lower place! Lets get this.
I am going to have my stepsister make her friends listen to it, lets see what happens lol...

[Analog]

YEAH!!! My stepsister found the song!!

Song Title: Hitomi no Naka no Meikyuu
Artist: Kayo Aiko

[ghey b]

FINALLY!

alright, i think we are 100% correct now, good thing we waited ^^

[Analog]

Yup :) Lets submit!

[Ranger]

You're the best, ana! Good find! Thank your step-sister for me :)

[Analog]

Yeah I will!

I am really happy we got that finished, now we wait.

[Ranger]

Yeah, 1-2 days 'til this contest is done and marked. Good work everyone! :D

[Milan]

Oh yeah!!! Hope we win this one at last ^^

[Kazmiz]

Hmm. From what I read on IRC the Vaizards and Espada are more likely to win, but sure, we give them hell.

[Ranger]

But we got everything right! Unless we left out an expansion or something, we couldnt've lost. :D

[ghey b]

well they might win because they submitted the right answers first

which is why i was pushing everyone to get those last 2 songs when we had everything done in the first day =/

[Ranger]

Ah, I see. Espada were the first division to submit, no?

[Ethanol]

Glad we finally got that song...I had no idea what it was. Step-sisters come in handy i guess. LOL

We should at least place in the top somewhere for getting it all right.

[Kazmiz]

Indeed, we may tie for second place, or even win if the espada got something wrong.

Looks like we get to have a say in what the next contest will be like.

Any suggestions? Our strong points?

[ghey b]

Congratulations on winning Contest #54. As part of the prize, you guys get to decide the category for the next contest (unfortunately it’ll be along with 2 other divisions).
Here are the categories for the next contest:
Anime
Manga
Music
CB member trivia
Scavenger Hunt
Video Games
Artistic (think contest #53, something like that probably)
Television
Random (basically anything else that we can think of)
Please tell me your top 3 choices. Based on your choices, and the choices of the other 2 divisions, we will start working on the next contest.
Thank you.

so what do you guys think.

i was thinking, tv or scavenger hunt, or of course video games :p

[Ranger]

Definitely NOT music anime or manga. Yeah, I'd put those three. Out of those, TV's probably our stronger point.

[Analog]

TV or Video Games is my vote. I would check with the espada or 7th JB so maybe we could try to find something good together and pick.

[ghey b]

thats why were picking our top 3

[Askand]

Cool that we won. I suggest TV and probably thats it cause my knowledge of the other places is not that big. At least if they make something with the 80's or 90's the better ^^.

[Kazmiz]

Hmm, tv, video games, a scavenger hunt would be fun.

[Ranger]

How about we put..

1. Television
2. Scavenger Hunt
3. Video Games

[Ethanol]

1. Video Games
2. Scavenger Hunts (( My fav type of contest..I love doing these. XD ))
3. Television

That's my vote.

[Analog]

My vote is:
1. TV
2. Video Games
3. Scavenger Hunt

[ghey b]

alright, then its settled, i will pm kohaku with

tv, video games, scavenger hunt

[Alienor]

*sighs* I'm totally useless for TV, since I don't watch it and don't get teh same shows as most...
Oh well, will have to be doubly better on the rest then

Good work all of you^^

I've been useless, despite searching ^^;

[ghey b]
