Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
[drupal=487]Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT[/drupal]
Every once and a while, I take a look through some of the older mods around here. Call me nostalgic, old-fashioned, or whatever you like, but I prefer to think of it as a search for inspiration. Modding has evolved from these creations, and as such, they are what we build on. In this contest, we challenge you to search for inspiration! ...more...
<!--break-->
How well do you remember the previous projects here on TheBestCaseScenario? This contest will test both your recollection and your searching ability. Contestants (that's you!) will be answering questions based on previous projects, with the occasional random, non-modding related question thrown in. For this contest we have five (yes 5!) prizes to give away, ranging from a Hades Case to some Premium Cables.
NZXT has partnered with us to provide this entertaining competition to show where modding got its roots. They have given us the following prizes:
Prizes
TBCS would like to thank NZXT for sponsoring this contest with the awesome prizes listed below. Stop by their forums or their Facebook page, and show them some appreciation for partnering with TBCS on this contest.

Rules
- Contest participants must be registered members of TBCS.
- Any non staff member of TBCS may participate.
- Only contestants who score 100% will be added to the drawing.
- One entry per member. (This means you must score 100% on your first try. Any score after your first try will be tossed out by the system)
- Due to shipping restrictions, this contest is limited to members residing in the USA and Canada only.
- Contest runs from 12:01am, 21 April 2010 till 11:59pm on 5 May 2010. (all times CST)
How to enter
Members wishing to participate in this contest must visit worklogs from the past to answer questions on a quiz. The Quiz will consist of 20 questions ranging from easy to moderately hard. Take your time and research past worklogs for the correct answers as only those who score 100% will be entered in the drawing. This is not a timed test.
The contest closes on 5 May 2010. All those scoring 100% on the quiz will have their name entered in the random drawing which will be held on 6 May 2010 by our own OvRiDe. The Drawing will be recorded on video and posted in this thread on or before 7 May 2010. The 5 names who are drawn will receive prizes in descending order. IE: First name drawn = First place prize.

I'm going to enter for sure, I'll have time tomorrow to do it too.
Also, typo in first post, "east to moderately hard." Should be "easy."

Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
fixed it up on here, I have no power for the front page though.
-
Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
Sorry.. typo is fixed.
I deleted my post about the question that had 2 correct answers. I re-examined the question and found that I made a mistake and there is only one correct answer.
So, remember folks, do your research, take your time, and get in the drawing!!

I can not stress it enough guys. Take your time and research. Every answer can be found if you do some digging and reading. There is no time limit on the test.

Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT

Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
95% lol, not sure what I missed. I thought I had them all right. Thanks anyway guys! What a great idea. I definitely missed and forgotten a few of these mods. The starfield one (no I'm not telling) was very cool.

Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
Glad to hear this was an enjoyable contest!
-
Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
guhh... stuck at 95%......
-
Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
wtf is up with the first question? I thought I had it right, but now that I'm looking at the blast door specific question I'm doubting myself. Who the heck ever tried to replicate doom 3? Where is that on the site? how did I miss that?
Edit: found it.
-
Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
Also, I think this question has two correct answers.
What is on the left side panel of Defyant's 'HP Resurrection II Evolution'?
I won't say which two I think are correct though.

Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
All you 95%'ers, don't get too disheartened just yet. We have five prizes from our competition sponsor NZXT to give out in this competition. If we get less than five 100% responses, we will end up having a second draw for any remaining prizes from everyone who scores 95%. It's only fair that the top prizes go to the people who do score the full 100%, but as they say, it ain't over yet....

Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
Cool contest:up: I know it isn't for out of us/canada but wanted to say great contest :).
There is so many awesome work logs here I think I could spend a month easily just checking them all, & it's impossible to not get inspired here 8).

Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
I wish we could open them world wide

Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
I am very pleased that you guys like this one so much. A lot of work went into getting it together. So make sure you give some rep to the Mods, Journos and Admins over the next few days. They pulled this off like Rock Stars!!!
If you have not entered the contest yet there is still plenty of time. a 100% score is more than possible and the last few post in this thread prove it. Just take your time, use the resources the site provides and you will be fine.

For their wifi, turn off your wireless card and turn it back on, it should help.

Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
No, it's not a problem with their wifi; it's actually one of their computers...I'm using mom's office pc while she's in class.

W00T more 100% scores. Keep it up guys. For those of you who did not score 100% there is always another contest next month.
And no we can not swap cases for the new camo one. These prizes were set aside a month ago.

Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
I personally like the theme of the next contest better then this one.
-
Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
what is it? I'll tell you if I like it or not lol
-
Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
Well only an idea has been proposed. There is no definite theme for the next contest as of yet. There will be a contest, and its got some pretty cool prizes as well!
-
Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
OvRiDe is right, I'm ahead of myself. So far, all of the proposals are better IMO.

Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT

Re: Contest: A Blast From The Past! Sponsored by NZXT
Hopefully I'll hear back from the Novint guy soon so they don't overlap.
