The Smash Bros Snapshot Contest is now finished! September 3, 2008
(Sorry for being late)
(Sorry for being late)
Now this one looks pretty damn fun! This newest Mario Kart Wii WiFi Tournament has you racing in the N64 Skyscraper Battle Stage . This is a wii Wheel only Tournament and as always challenges you to get your best time. The key here is to avoid all of the Bob-Omb Cars that are racing in the opposite direction as you. I’m sure you know what will happen if you run into one…
Tournament Begins: September 1st
Tournament Ends: September 10th
Its that time again! This time around the theme was the Super Mario Brothers. Click the more button to see the entrants.
Ok, I have waited… way too long to post this. I have been busy for the past two weeks, and it is a wonder that I had time to actually host the Scavenger Hunt.
But, enough self pity. Click the “More Button” for an in depth guide to the Scavenger Hunt that was hosted through the week of the 14th.
WARNING: LONG AND LOTS OF IMAGES
Well, it took a little longer this time than in April (the prize was claimed early Saturday morning), but it happened. The prize has been claimed.
Let’s all give a round of applause to… darn, where’d that name go? Hmm, oh well. I’m sure you can find it somewhere
At any rate, the winner will get to choose one of the following:
WarioWare - Smooth Moves
RedSteel
Madden ‘07
Freeloader (incompatible with current firmware)
Wii Fan Mod
Wii Component Cables
DS Case Mods
2000 Wii Points
Not bad for five days of cleu(haha)-finding, eh? Ok, I admit it… Going through with the whole thing is quite the accomplishment.
Anyway, I will be back with an improved Hunt this January. In what way improved? Well, for one thing, I will stick to more traditional clues (traditional meaning “clues that worked in the first Hunt”), and I may work out a new “score” system if I can find a way to integrate it seamlessly… but that is a little hard to explain.
Oh, before I go, I have to say this: Though you may not have won, all of the other Hunters that I communicated with did very well also. Maybe better than I would have, even! Many of them may have needed a push in the right direction, but almost always made it with only a vague hint. Good job, all of you, and better luck next time!
Well, that is that. Ciao!
The final hints have been up for near six hours now, and they are all fairly easy. But, the prize is still yet to be claimed.
If you are worried about being “too far behind”, well, you never had a better chance to catch up than the past six hours.
Who knows? We may go another six before it is claimed.
Good luck!
Well, this is the final update for the Hunt.
GO GO GO!
Oh…. yeah, I have to put the routine stuff.
The winner gets his or her pick of one (and ONLY ONE) of the following:
WarioWare - Smooth Moves
RedSteel
Madden ‘07
Freeloader (incompatible with current firmware)
Wii Fan Mod
Wii Component Cables
DS Case Mods
2000 Wii Points
Ok, what am I forgetting? Oh, yeah:
P.S.: If you need to ask me anything, email me at: SirVenom (a t t) WiiNintendo (d o t t) net.
P.P.S.: No idea what I am talking about? Want to see another day’s post?
Ok, now… GO GO GO!
Hey, I don’t have time to make special images for EVERY announcement! Well, actually… I spend about as much time making images for the announcements as I do typing them out and adding clues
Anyway, on to the important stuff… TODAY IS THE FINAL DAY OF THE HUNT!
I won’t be adding clues until some time after noon (Central Time), so you all have that much more time to catch up.
I owe you an explanation, too. I have used this Hunt as kind of a “guinea pig”. I decided to see how far I could push the “difficulty” level before making it impossible.
Well, I pushed it just short of impossible. Many of the Hunters are still not at the final clue of the fourth day… In fact, I know of only two that have been there for sure, and one that has solved it. Congratulations, you know who you are
Well, long story short, the January WiiNintendo Scavenger Hunt’s clues will follow more along the lines of April’s clues… less obscure.
Well, good luck!
Whoa! Day 4 already… four clues each day for four days… That’s sixteen tough time-consuming clues.
Well, even if you who are not a glutton for punishment, you will find the end rewarding if you get to it first… After all, the winner gets his or her pick of the following:
WarioWare - Smooth Moves
RedSteel
Madden ‘07
Freeloader (does NOT work with current firmware)
Wii Fan Mod
Wii Component Cables
DS Case Mods
2000 Wii Points
I have designed the Hunt in such a way that latecomers would stand a chance, but… let’s face it… You’re running out of time!
Remember, TOMORROW is the final day. There is some hope left for latecomers, if they hurry!
Speaking of tomorrow, I will be adding clues sometime AFTER NOON tomorrow. Ok, that’s out of the way…
Also, one more thing thing. I cannot stress the importance of remembering this enough. Just showing this to stumped Hunters has helped them along:
Ok, go!
P.S.: If you need to ask me anything, email me at: SirVenom (a t t) WiiNintendo (d o t t) net.
P.P.S.: No idea what I am talking about? Want to see another day’s post?
Well, I finally did it. I screwed up! Go ahead and throw all the tomatoes you got, I am hungry anyway.
Well, if you are on the third day, you probably noticed that the third clue is missing. Well, I never tested the clue, and assumed that it worked fine. While going through the Hunt checking for errors just now, I realized it was missing.
You know people, if you were stuck, I am only an email away
I need the feedback anyway!
Well, it is fixed. Sorry for the inconvenience and waste of up to several hours of your life!
There is still a prize at stake, good luck!
Hello again! Yessir, I can see by the cringing of your faces that you are all glad to see me again
I have added the third wave of clues… Wow, third day… that’s, like, over half-way. That means that someone is over half-way to their prize!
What prize? The winner gets his or her choice of one of the following:
WarioWare - Smooth Moves
RedSteel
Madden ‘07
Free Loader
Wii Fan Mod
Wii Component Cables
DS Case Mods
2000 Wii Points
Today I decided to implement one of the more crafty clues that came to my mind… But you are all pretty intelligent, except for that Wookiee in the back row, so I am sure you can catch onto it!
Ok… Well… GO!
P.S.: No clue what I am talking about? Go here!
P.P.S.: Looking for the Second Day post? Here it is!
*Bump*
Hello, children and people alike!

If you made it to the end of yesterday’s wave, just pick up where you left off.
It seems that many of you are progressing nicely, and then quite a few of you are running into turbulence. It is for the latter that I repeat a crucial part of the guidelines:
Doing the Hunt? Done with today’s Hunt? Leave a comment! I like to have at least some idea of who all is doing it
Do you have no idea what I am talking about? Go jump in a lake here!
