Challenge Ideas

And then a few others:

Chinatown (1972) to The Virgin Suicides (1999)

The Dark Knight to Star Wars Episode 5

It's A Wonderful Life to Blade Runner

Awesome. Thanks for the suggestions. I'm going to post the Casablanca one this round. Then I'm liking The Dark Knight to Star Wars!

It seemed Sarge got it right the first time, then tried to correct himself. What's the call?

Oops. Never mind. I saw thhe mistake with the first one as James Earl Jones was not in Moll Flanders.

True, I noticed that. I am concerned with one other call though. In Yoshi's final line, he missed the "The". Is that important enough or no?

I can care less about the "The" if it were my challenge. Ultimately, though, it's what you want to do with it since it's your challenge.

True. I didn't think it was too big of a deal, but I could see if it happened in the final round, people would be upset, so I had to follow the "reasoning" through, if you know what I mean? I still feel bad though.

Yeah... That''s true.

True. I thought about doing a redo round, then I knew that wouldn't go over with Bella, so it was this option. How was your day of Kingdom Hearts?

Great. You actually have an Immediate Boss Fight to start the show, and the game so far is quite fun. You do have to be fast with controls though

Oh, very nice! That does sound fun. I played a couple of the Kingdom Heart games awhile back and I was horrible at them, lol. I'm more of a low-difficult, heavy endurance/concentration video game, which means I'm a champ at Tetris, lol.

Are you now? What level did you get to in Tetris?

I'd like to think so, lol. I was able to get to Level 673 in a game of N-Blox online before and that game took about four straight hours or so. I also have my Tetris Sprint (which is how fast you can clear 40 lines) time down to 48.1 seconds. Do you play any Tetris?

I've played Tetris and while I am decent at it, I am nowhere near as good as that. lol

I can probably clear 40 lines in about 3 minutes.

Ah, you've got to get better at it and then we'll have to meet online sometime and duke it out. I used to have a handheld set thing for my television but the joystick was bad and I wasn't able to get it to work, .

lol Now, you were able to get to L673 in "N-Blox"? What is that?

Yup, N-Blox. It's kind of an "old-school" variant of Tetris on Tetrisfriends.com, which is where I play. Basically it's retro and not too fast variant. I think things speed up at Level 10 and then don't move much faster than that, although it does get trickier. Every time you clear 10 lines, you move up a level, another level, another level, etc... until you top out. With that score/record, I'm 7th on the All-Time Leaderboard for N-Blox.

Huh. I think I'll try it out for kicks. I'll let you know where I get.

Awesome. And, if you sign up and want to add me as a "friend" on there, I'm http://www.tetrisfriends.com/users/profile.php?id=772767.

You weren't about being 7th-place all-time. lol

I only got to Level 9, but it was only my first time.

And I'll definitely keep that in mind if I do sign up.

Yup, lol. Tetris is my game. I haven't played it that "hard/intense" in awhile, but I might have to get back into it. And, Level 9 is pretty good for your first time. And you'll have to look at the other variants too. They're a blast!

Cool.


So today, I did a re-vote with Purple Rocks. The unlucky number is going to be 3.

Okay, that's fine with me. I'm just now checking the threads. I had to go in to work and set up for an event this afternoon/evening and then I have to go back at 8:30 and reset everything for the new event.

Oh, cool. I hope you have a good time with the event. It sounds like fun, actually.

Ah, it should be pretty fun. It's Member Appreciation Night, so we'll be having drawings for some free classes, some cash prizes, and food and drinks. I'll be sure to let you know how it goes! I also want to say that I liked how you didn't directly tell them it was a Purple Rock, but let them assume/figure it out. That was cool, lol.
