Adventure Game Park! NOW OVER ~ WE HAVE A WINNER!

[ReginaFilange]

Hey Folks!

It's me... ReginaFilange... FILANGE! :haha:

Coming on Saturday Dec. 4, 2004 is my game within a game!


If you are the first person to figure out the clues and answer things correctly, you will actually win a prize! I won't tell you what the prize is, as that's part of the puzzle too! But I can tell you that it's a little something from my site.

Here's the deal:

On Dec. 4th at Noon ~ Pacific Time, I will have a park available for download. It's not too big of a park and has no peeps. I figured that might help those with low end machines in being able to participate (like me ;) ).

Your task will require you to unscramble 5 hidden words. You then unscramble those 5 words to form a sentence. This sentence will be your clue to the hidden prize!

The first person to EMAIL ME (NOT the 1st to post here) the right 5 word sentence, AND the name of the prize, will win THAT prize! Everything must be spelled correctly. Any spelling errors will disqualify you.

The only catch is... you must be 13 yrs of age or older AND you must be a United States citizen. Since the cost of the product and shipping is coming out of my pocket, I can't afford to ship outside the U.S. I'm sure you understand.

If anyone has any questions, you have a week to do so. I'll answer all that I can, without giving anything away that is...

After noon on Saturday it's, "All's Fair In Love & Gaming" and you'll be on your own!

So... get ready for Saturday at noon!

and Good Luck! :up:

So when do you post screens of the park?

I won't be posting any screens. That might give things away. I also don't want anyone to study my park before anyone else has a chance to. I want this to be fair for everyone participating.

I can tell you that it is a simple park.

It has my original Pirate Cove Log Flume, One Wooden Indoor Coaster, One Indoor Haunted House, Ferris Wheel and very nice food court, thanks to Bitter Jeweler. I believe it was Bitter Jeweler who designed the food court structure. Am I right? If so... Thank You!

Remember... this park is for figuring out the adventure only. It's not about making peeps happy etc...

I hope I'm not doing all this for nothing? It doesn't seem to be drawing much interest. I guess if no one is interested, then I guess I won't go to the trouble to do this again.

Well, I liked the idea but since I'm not in the US...

[GardenGuy]

Sounds like a FUN idea...... looking forward to the park to start hunting

[joetomnj]

Looking forward to particpating in this also. Hopefully won't be at work when you release it. (Drive a limo on weekends here in NJ) Oh for anyone on my side of the US...This will be 3pm Easten time...LOL

[NicksVideo]

Let hope he's not a crazy stalker. Background check anyone?

Just kidding. This sounds like a good idea, and I'll deffinatly give it a shot. :)

Sorry, but it costs a small fortune to send something out of the states!

Oh... and don't worry folks... I'm not a stalker, I've been a legit business for many years. :)

Just thought this might be fun for everyone.

[Bleh77777777777]

awww.... I'm under 13... BUT, can I try, and not get the prize if I win? The prize can go to the next guy.

Sure!

[Bleh77777777777]

yay!

[Milkdud]

Great idea Regina Filage! :D
I also hope you get alot of participants, this is a nice little thing to do and you should get credit for it, not just have 5 people participate cuz then...well that'll stink :p
Good Luck! And I'll be participating of course! :) The ironic thing is that I love puzzles but usually stink at them :rolleyes:

[ReginaFilange]

Ok....

I don't have screens of my Adventure Game Park, but I DO have a new video of a coaster from the park. It's a dark indoor woody!

File size: 7.68 Mb.

Let me know what you think. Not sure about my music choice, but hey, at least it has music this time! :D DOWNLOAD HERE (http://www.maxgamezone.com/downloads.php?a=dl&fid=20)

[joetomnj]

Regina, I can not download the video you have posted. That site will not allow access unless you join.

[ReginaFilange]

Darn it...

I guess you can try this link and sign up.

GO HERE! (http://www.maxgamezone.com/)

[joetomnj]

That 2nd link worked Regina. Great video BTW :up: :up: Music fit the coaster perfectly.

[nicko84]

I live in Europe so obviously I will not receive any price but that will not stop me from trying.

And don't worry, what you are doing is great and I hope to see more puzzles and parks like this from you! Keep it up

[ReginaFilange]

Hey! I have a question for you guys....

When I release the contest park on Saturday, should I include the music in the zip file? There are two mp3's; A Pirates Life for Me and Superman. This will add a little over 2 mbs to the download.

Or should I leave the music out to make the download smaller?

I find that the music never really works properly anyway.

What do you guys think?

[Bleh77777777777]

Make two. One with, one without.

[RCTUSER]

Hi Regina
Not had much time this week, but I have updated the site so that guests can download and have no need to sign up at the site if that helps :D

You only need to sign up to upload a file :)

Also how will you know that the person is above 13 years, they could just lie. Not that I'm not. I'm 15 years old. :D :cool:

[joetomnj]

My guess is that Regina will require that the age of the poster be included in the E-mail and hopefully they will be honest. That way she's covered legaly.

You're exactly right Joe!

That's a good idea, but the more I think about it the more I think I may just make one with no music.

That'll make everyone's downloads much faster.

Thanks for the idea tho...

[gamerkd15]

So do we have to sign up? What's this about an email?
EDIT: I just realized the contest in on saturday. No school.:p

No... you don't have to sign up. On Sat. at noon, I'll upload the contest park so you all can download.

You'll receive my email info during game play.

[ticklemeshell]

oooh! A contest!


I think that it should be without the music as that takes up too much space and time to download.


This sounds exciting!

Cheers Tikitiki

You can't use your name and your parents age.

If you like, you can get your parents permission, and have THEM send in the answers with THEIR name and THEIR age, have them give the prize to you, once it arrives if you're the winner! I know it sounds like a lot of trouble, but I have to do this to protect myself.

That's the only suggestion I can think of....

Good Luck Everyone!

ONLY ONE MORE DAY TIL PRIZE TIME!

[tikitiki]

Yea lol thats what i meant sorry!

Cheers Tikitiki

p.s. now were are some places to actually buy the rct3 game a new video card?:haha:

[ReginaFilange]

That's very cool to know! Thanks for the info!

Also... thanks for the very RELIABLE service!

[Bleh77777777777]

I found 11 clues!

[ticklemeshell]

I found one word and the email...no clue where the other words are.

[Bleh77777777777]

You need to find letters not words...

BTW, how many letters are there total?

[ReginaFilange]

Originally posted by Bleh77777777777

There are a total of 19 different letters.

Did I make this too hard?

Perhaps I can give additional clues as time goes?

[Bleh77777777777]

wow! Its gonna be retty hard, as I found only 11 clues and the hidden one.

[omgukk]

lol they are all hidden.

[Slikwille]

well i think I found all 19 clues (may have double counted one) but the sentence that I get doesnt make sense...

[ReginaFilange]

The sentence forms yet another clue.

[Slikwille]

I got another question Regina, please check your PM. I dont want to ask it here because it might spoil my chances of winning :)

[ticklemeshell]

I found 16 letters so far, but not sure what some of the letters are since I don't know which way is up.

[Slikwille]

Yeah me too, its very confusing but fun!

[omgukk]

Your site is down btw Reg.;)

[NicksVideo]

The extention is .htm, not .html, that may be your problem.

[ReginaFilange]

WE HAVE A WINNER!

Member Slikwille figured out the mystery of Adventure Game Park in exactly 2 hours!

Good Going!

Slikwille, please check your email.


~RF~

[Slikwille]

w00t w00t!

[rct3phreak]

for those of us who didnt win what was the sentence and what was the prize?

[Slikwille]

The sentence was Chris will lead the way and the prize was a FREE bar of rainbow soap (http://www.saltsforthesoul.com/rainbow.htm)

[ReginaFilange]

You may want to make your post "SPOILER" friendly. Some peeps may still want to figure it out for themselves... or maybe not??? :haha:

[ticklemeshell]

By the way, Regina, that water ride was absolutely stunning with all the tunnels and scenery.

[ReginaFilange]

Thanks! I appreciate the compliment!

[ElBlufer]

Just in case someone didn't go to the link because they're trying to figure it out...what was the mystery prize? I know its the rainbow soap, but what else?

[gamerkd15]

Yea, that was a cool contest. I knew it was soap found the link like 15 min into the contest but where are all the letters? Could you be specific, beacuse I would like to know. All I found was letters in scenery. Nice rides by the way. Try submitting some.:D

[Slikwille]

The mystery prize was a Giant Arabian Sandalwood Bath Bomb

[ElBlufer]

may I ask what that is?

[joetomnj]

Congratulations Silkwife. I just got home from working and saw the results. Well hopefully I'll be home for the next one :D Regina, I also congratulate you on this game within a game idea! :up: :up:

[ReginaFilange]

Thanks for the nice comments everyone!

You can see what the extra gift was by visiting my website and click on bath bombs. Just click my sig.

[DCatNorth]

hey thats a cool and original idea for a prize!
