Hi,
I intend to do a similar quiz to this one (http://www.dvdcollectorsonline.com/index.php/topic,966.0.html), but before I start screen capturing, I wanted to know if enough people are intested playing it.
-
I am sooo bad at these types of things but I do like to read them. Once they are answered I always remember what the answer is! :laugh:
-
:thumbup:
-
I like trivia questions. The problem is that by the time I get to them, they're generally all answered already... :laugh:

I agree with Kathy. With the exception that once they are answered, I forget the answer in about 3 minutes. :laugh:

The game is: Know Your Scenery
I have X pictures for you (until I run out of them)
I will post 5 every day (a batch). For every correct show you'll get 2 points. If you guess a complete batch correctly, you'll get another point.
If you guess wrong on a show you get another guess which will earn you 1 point if correct.
If you're the only one that guessed a show correctly you'll get another point.
You can guess any show in any batch until the game's over which will be 3 days after I've posted the last batch - I will announce in time what the last batch will be.
All guesses via PM
On the day after the last batch I will give an additional hint on every show that has not been guessed correctly by anyone. After the hint you can earn 1 point for guessing correctly.

First Batch: http://doena-soft.de/quiz/A.zip

I'll try...no clue how well I'll do, but I'll try.
-
Are these all TV shows? Or a mix of shows and movies? :hmmmm:

All shows and Tom was the first to get them all right, so it's not unsolveable.
-
Will you post the answers here after so long so if we we'll know the right answers if we were wrong on something?

In the end there will be a full disclosure, yes. Since one can join at any time, there' won't be any solutions before the end besides from what I tell you in the PMs.

Karsten do you only want the name of the show or do we need to find which episode ?

Most of the screenshots come from the pilots episodes unless I can't find an convinient one. So, no, just the show's name. ;)
-
A rough estimate tells me that it's going to be 12-13 batches depending on whether I find a suitable screenshot (which is far easier for location based shows than the others).
When the game is over, there will be a full disclosure with all titles.

I hope so because we're only at the second batch, and a few are completely baffling me! :hmmmm:

Yeah, only because I haven't sent in all mine yet! I'll knock 'im down a peg or two... :devil:
:bag:
Actually, I'm stuck.
-
I'm stuck on some too..just getting to look at today's batch...and I'll probably stare at the ones I haven't figured out yet again. :laugh:
-
Maybe it helps if you not try to see what the picture shows you directly but more what the picture depicts in general. The most important question is: What is it what I am seeing? Then: What are the associations the pictures create? Where would I see something like this? From which era does the image come from? And so on...
If you see a room: Why did DJ show you a room? If you see something else: Why did DJ show you that? There has to be something significant in the picture.

You're still twice as good as I am! I only answered if I knew what the scene was - any others I might have guessed but then you would really know how bad I am at those games.
Or it might be we've watched soooo many more DVDs than anyone else! :whistle:
-
I did take random guesses for some of them. Some were right and others were wrong...and I'm still clueless on several. I will probably come up with more guesses tomorrow.

E4 hasn't been guessed correctly by anyone, so here's a hint:
E4: It's the wife of his father.

Still no one? OK, what's the difference between Neptune and Poseidon?
-
:bag:
-
Perhaps I should sell the answers to the quiz for $1 a shot. Although I'm only going to sell the answers for the 48 I got correct.
Hmmm, still a few hours left for me to enter here, so maybe I should win here as well as at Invelos :tv:

Thanks for playing. :)

ARGH! :slaphead:
Well I'm tired from the severe bout of kicking myself. DS9? Farscape? And blasted Smallville! I racked my brain for a series in America's mid-west. How many others are there? :-X How did I miss those, amongst others? Good grief. Several I never had a chance at, but how anyone spotted Fall Guy, I do not know. :surrender: Third ain't bad considering. Thanks for doing it, Karsten. :thumbup:

I will stand up and assume my lack of culture......................even after seeing the answers I still don't know them.

You should have known at least Stargate SG-1. Never again you will see that many Canadian forests. :P
-
The Alias one is a kicker because the same font stares out from your banner!
-
Some of those I had never even heard of! And a few I missed.. well I should get a proper kick in the bosom! I should've known them! Especially Buffy and Veronica!

I never watched that show Karsten.
And as for Canadian forests.........I was raised in them :)

And it has been there during the entire quiz....

E3 was The Fall Guy?? Well I obviously have forgotten tons from that show.
I will admit I just got very lucky with some of the ones I got. I only got V because I started watching it and spotted the scene.

The same happened to me with "Veronica Mars".
-
If you have any questions what my thinking on a certain image (or hint) was, feel free to ask. ;)
-
Ok, then who was that in E3? For The Fall Guy? Was that the main character...I can't remember his name now..played by Lee Majors, going in the little shack like house?
-

And there is even a shot of him in the tub in the opening credits! So you'd see the tub every time you watch the show!
-

Yes that was Colt Seavers going into his house in the hills. And as Achim said, you even see him sitting in his tub in the intro.
For me it was like "Huh, a shot of 'Fall Guy' - let's take one of his outside bathtub, everyone has to recognize this". But then again, FG was a mandatory show to be watched on our school yard.
-
I must admit that I have never seen a single episode, even though it was quite popular in Germany.
-
btw: Shows that I own but didn't make a screenshot of because I couldn't think of an appropriate scene or because it was too new or because it would have been too loaded with fantasy and sci-fi:
21 Jump Street
4400
Angel
Battlestar Galactica (2003)
Buck Rogers
Crusade
Dollhouse
Dragon Ball Z
Firefly
How I Met Your Mother
Joey
Galactica 1980
Knight Rider
Leverage
Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman
Married ... With Children
Merlin
Primeval
Scrubs
SeaQuest DSV
Space: Above and Beyond

I grew up with The Fall Guy as kind of always there. Now you mention the credits, I vaguely remember them. But I was very young! That's my excuse and I'm sticking to it! :-X

Yeah..me too. I was young..That's it.
But really it has been so long since I saw that show that I've forgotten a lot about it. I don't remember him having a place in the hills at all.
