awww. you all gave away all the puzzle clues. those should be only given in moments of sever frustration

Like gambit I didn't immediately get what I had to do.. I thought I was trying to beat my time at my last go.. then I remembered it said cooperate... ahhhh..

after that, the rest seemed logical. I remembered the most important rule too.. if a button is pressed.. it's meant to do something.. if you don't see the result immediately don't ignore it!! DM did this often..

Yahtzee is a genius, I've been watching his reviews from the start. Hilarious stuff!

Yeah, a friend clued me in to to these a while back and while I barely game at all I religeously watch the darn things! He does have a fresh and wonderfully vulgar take on games reviewing. Being british with a jaunty hat helps

Couldn't agree more - as above I've been watching for ages. Genius.

That is both funny and scarily named!

I did think of you when I was first sent the link...

You people and your British humo(u)r

(It was pretty funny though!)

Post by **Gambit37** » Mon Mar 17, 2008 11:52 pm

British? Those guys are Australian!

They spell it that way, too. It counts!

Oh, sneaky! You just don't know the difference between the accents, do you?

That's just a placeholder image -- what are we looking at?

Meh, if they all talked like Crocodile Dundee or the guy in the Foster's beer commercial, it would be easy.

The image didn't load for me either...

You go to the main site and search for Mario..
That's what I did, anyway here is what came up:

Hmm, perhaps you had to copy and paste the link int othe browser for it to work...I got the placeholder, yet copy and paste and zoom's link both worked fine. So I got stereo creepiness!

Post by **Gambit37** » Tue Mar 18, 2008 8:56 pm

Yeah, following the link won't work because they've disabled hotlinking and links pasted into forums are considered "not directly accessed from their own website" and thus blocked.

Post by **cowsmanaut** » Tue Mar 18, 2008 9:17 pm

strange, I got the link in gmail and clicked it.. so I never expected it to not work. At least you've seen it now though

Man, so much effort, and the picture looks more like CGI Mario than real-life Mario. Real people don't have eyes that size, noses either. The proportions look all cartoonish, and the image is said to have taken "25 hours to create". This is not a "real-life Mario", it's some dude's picture photoshopped into looking like Mario. I feel cheated.
