Now I'm watching this. I foresee many sleepless nights in my future watching this :tongue.gif:
haha. When I watched the X series I would just have it playing on my 2nd computer while I did stuff on my other PC. It was easy to listen and if something exciting happened I would always look over to see what was going on. I think with any true Let's Play series you have your exciting and boring moments. I guess I could go the seananners route and only show scripted stuff that was meant to be exciting and edit out any of my failures but that doesn't seem like a true let's play to me.

I haven't watched SeaNanner's Let's Play series all the way through. I've only seen a couple of episodes and couldn't get hooked :/ But yours though, I'm already on Episode 28 and have been watching them almost non-stop since last night, except for the few hours of sleep and occasional food and bathroom breaks. Keep up the good work!
Nice bonus question, I think you have to go into stalker mode to figure that one out.
BTW, I found all the questions, they aren't hard, if you know where to look. ;-) I just wish I had the time to go and answer them all.
Haha yea if anyone could get the "bonus" question right they automatically win lol. Hey if you have found them all you are in the lead, get the answers and you will be the first one in!

Hell, I might even start a Let's Play series.
Glad I could keep you entertained, damn 28 in a day that is a lot of video time, you could probably pick my voice out of a crowd if you ran into me right about now. Thanks for watching and the support, hope you enjoy the rest of the videos as you get caught up!

I'd love to, but most of my spare time goes into admin'ing my own Minecraft SMP server.

This competition is starting to take a lot out of me, haha. Have six left to find, but from episode 30ish on is kind of a blur to me, so I might have to watch those through to get the rest of them, THEN give the entire series a go. If you're serious about the bonus question giving an automatic win, I'll get right on it! :tongue.gif:
What seems to be giving me trouble is the caves. If I remember correctly, you said they were all in places we saw on video, and they should all have some kind of significance, but I'm getting super lost underground...hopefully there aren't anymore I need to find down there.
I feel kind of glad that I already had 8 and 11 before you mentioned they were difficult ones, here's what I'm missing:
2, 6, 12, 21, 22, 25
Working retail over the Christmas holidays is what's been holding me back. I'm either working, sleeping, or working on this, haha.
Edit: Alright, the huge cave system by base #3 is really starting to get to me. If any of those numbers mentioned above are down in there, I'm just going to have to forget about them. I don't want to go down there ever again.

haha, thanks for the devotion, I know the timing of the competition was either good or bad for people. Some people had the time off and weren't doing anything, others were super busy with family or work. For the caves I tried to make sure they went in even more significant of places than out in the open, there is one in the cave out by base #3 that took me about an hour to find the spot again, it is a significant location but it is a little hard to find in the cave.
Ack, I've been at this for a few days now, and I still can't find 4!!! I'm rewatching the series for clues and am at episode 45 already. Will I be getting hints to 4 in any of the upcoming episodes (i.e. after 45)?
Sucks you had to do it during christmas time... I would have tried, but i was busy and by the time i had a chance to even just check what the challenge was, there were people already nearly done... seems kinda pointless now and i don't really have all that much time X_x
Maybe next time you can try and avoid holidays and maybe make the challenge a bit easier to start... like make it harder but not as time consuming maybe
a quiz with the questions given but with questions about pretty hidden details in the LP maybe? That way, to awnser, one would need to look through season 1 or 2 again to find the awnser. Griefers would not go through the trouble, but it would give a fairer chance to people who have less time to work on getting accepted lol
Questions about what we see but you don't mention (like how many lanes in your strip mine when you showed it) or how many of ____ was found/killed during a certain trip would be good questions... we can't really get the wrong answer if we look through ALL the videos and find the answers, but it would take quite a bit of effort (61 videos for season 1 and already 24 for season 2 makes for 1000+ minutes of video to check)
And out of every person who gets 100%, you could either choose randomly (if you want to give some leeway to people with less time) or give the spot to the first people
Not saying all this to be mean or anything XD Your idea was a very good one lol
above all, it just sucks it had to be during xmas...

Space... is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly hugely mindboggingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the chemist's, but that's just peanuts to space.
Yeah I agree that your contest idea was really novel. I can't imagine any griefers going to the trouble of finding all that. Coinciding with Christmas is as good as time as any, IMO, in fact it might be preferred since you want people that will be interesting during the LP. I am definitely not that dedicated. LOL. Again, that's the point, I think.
There is still time to get in. If you watched all of season one then finding the questions can be done in a single sitting, my real life friends that I used to test out the hiding places found them all in about 5 hours. They had probably watched the videos more than the average person though. There still has not been anyone to submit their answers, as far as I know only one person has found all 26 questions but has not yet figured out the answer to them all. As I think I said before there were pros and cons to choosing christmas as the release time, some people were off from work and had plenty of free time others were out of town with family. I guess with anything in life you aren't going to satisfy 100% of the people 100% of the time. I understand those with criticisms aren't trying to be overly abrasive of anything and I take those as constructive and I hear what you guys are saying. As for season 3 that is still a ways off so what we go with for letting people join us for that season we will have to figure that out when we get there. As always thanks for watching and participating in this series guys.
I'm guessing you would prefer mode active people to join, so that you can do stuff with them more often...
so with that in mind, you should avoid the holidays, to give more chances to anyone who has more time on normal days, in stead of simply not being busy in the holidays
Personally, I'm busy pretty much all the time until the Jan 2... but afterward, weekdays from 5-11 I'd be free and all weekend lol
As for giving it a shot because i still have time... unfortunately, like i said, I'm still quite busy until Sunday... and by then I probably won't even have a chance lol
Just wondering... if someone gives you their answers, but get some wrong... do you tell them they got it wrong so they can find the right answer? or is it a 1 chance deal? I ask because I figure my only chance is if a lot of people who are well on the way to getting it all right get one wrong and are disqualified :tongue.gif: lol XD

If they get them wrong I tell them what they got wrong and the correct answer. As I said in the rules if no one gets them all right by the 1st of February then the top scoring submission gets in.
As an update we just had the first submission, he was unable to find one of the questions and missed 3. That still puts him in the lead since no one else has submitted yet.

This is my dilemma. I found all the questions, but I'm not submitting any answers because I just won't have the time to spend on the game; I would have at most a couple hours a week to play. I think I'll let somebody else, who has a lot more time get in.

I can see how question 11 would be hard to find.
See you would be perfect for the server if you are already admining a SMP. Get to work on those questions

I'll see if I have time tomorrow to work on some. I wrote down all the questions, but there are a lot of episodes to watch again.

I actually had an easy time finding 8 and 11. 4 was the one that got me. Watching the videos helps!
