Yup, thats right, my hoaxing antics have wound their way into this little number.
Remember Taco's DX Pics Competition? Yeah, this is basically a rip-off of that. Moving on....
Basically, I'll be posting up to 4 pictures a 'Round', of screenshots from various Sonic games, with various things wrong with them, and its YOUR job to TELL ME WHAT THEY ARE :O.
You'll be awarded points for each one you find, up to 10 for hard ones, and 1 for easy ones. Also ridiculously hard ones will be potentially worth more.
That said, on with the hoaxes :o
ROUND ONE
Hoax #1
There are 6 things wrong with this (The fact its knux in S1 does NOT count).
There are 4 glaringly obvious techies, each of them worth a point each.
There are 2 not-impossible-but-hardish-to-spot techies, one of them is worth 4 points, the other is worth 6.
(http://www.soniccenter.org/ARRPEEGEE/Hoaxes/zomghoaxa.PNG)
Hoax #2
Only 2 things wrong here. (Thats a background for 'Poison Hill Zone' and does nout count.)
One of them is pretty obvious and worth 3 points.
The other is not obvious in any way, shape or form and worth 20 points.

Hoax #3
LAST HOAX OF THE UPDATE *shot*
Seriously now, 3 techies to find. (Again, the fact Knux shouldnt be able to get to that part of Chemical Plant is not part of this techie hoax (Also I got in here using Level Select, not by beating Emerald Hill.))
3 Things to spot.
One is semi-obvious and worth 3 points.
Another is not-so-semi-obvious and worth 4 points.
One is slightly hard to spot and worth 5 points.

PM me your 'answers', rather than posting them in here, Chuck has seen all 3, mike and Spinny have seen the 'BETA' of Hoax #1 and I know which techies they spotted so they dont have an advantage?
Got all that? Happy Hunting! :o
EDIT: Oh yeah, deadline for this is four days from now, so the 22nd :o

Here's the running total for Round Two :o
1st:eredani- 78 Points
2nd:Aitamen- 70 Points
3rd:mike89- 44 Points
4th:Spinballwizard- 43 Points
5th:PsyBorg- 41 Points

7th:sonicam- 23 Points

10th:Shadow Wedge- 10 Points
11th:Tails47 2- 5 Points
12th:eggFL- 4 Points
13th:theenglishman- 2 Points
sonicam and PsyBorg are the first to give answers for this Round, so naturally their rankings increase a tad with sonicam moving up to 4th and PsyBorg taking 3rd. Aitamen storms back into the lead and almost 'perfects' (+10 Points) this Round and 'Borg gets 2 bonus points for a fuck-up in Hoax #1. Damn I shouldn't rush these.
Greham spots the same fuck-up as PsyBorg and also lands some of the high-scoring hoaxes in the process, knocking him up to P4! mike shoots in and ties eredani for 2nd place.....but for how long? Swedgey also joins us this Round and gets in at P9:O
:O!! Spinny dives in and spots all the hoaxes bar ONE in hoax #1, just missing out on the +10 perfect round bonus :O Spinny shoots straight up to 4th, JUST missing out on a 3-way-tie for 2nd
Quartz earns an extra 10 points and moves up a place :o
What else will happen between now and the 27th? Zonos, only time will tell :O
ZONOS. eredani once again submits just before the deadline and scoops up first place by a whole 10 Points.
ROUND TWO IS NOW OFFICIALLY OVER
Answers and Round 3 coming sometime later today, Im tired and playing Pokemon Quartz X)
-
Actually, I spotted TWO fuck-ups, remember?
But hey, Hoax 1 is still hard as hell to figure out though.
-
*is still curious as to what he missed, as he can't remember*
well... this is going to be interesting once more!
The Aitamen
