Lightbulb World of Classics Competition

Hi guys.

I'm running a competition on my site, you get to win some cool official retrogaming collection products for Playstation 2 and PC. You can win these if you can name a screenshot and a sound belonging to a couple of Amiga games.

Have fun!

You may have no control over it but there are adverts on your site selling Amiga titles on DVD. This is illegal and a rip-off, no?

Belgarath, I understand you found the Competition difficult seeing as your answers were:

1. Bangkok Knights *
2. Daily Double Horse Racing *

Peanutuk: I have no control over the ad's, they are automatically picked by keywords such as "Amiga" and "Commodore 64" that are on the site..

Regards,

Mark

*Just kidding, I'm aware you know everything there is to know about Amiga games

Further to the post about the ad's selling Amiga DVD's.. Well I had a look at them and they do seem somewhat "dodgy" (no listings as to whats on the DVD's or anything).. So I will get on to my Google account and suspend that link.. (Just found out I can do that, I'm new to the Google Ad Programme).

Hmm I vaguely remember an older competition of yours, I think I cared enough to contribute with correct answers (was it about superfrog or lotus?) but you had already abandoned the idea and later on everything related to that imaginary competition disappeared from the site not to mention that I never received a reply to my mail. I won't bother this time.

Was this the Amiga Forever competition!? My old PC died on me and I lost everything, local files relating to my website, e-mails, the lot.. I did release a statement on my website regarding this matter with an apology to people who sent in there answers.. Sometimes things like this happen.. I've had three or so competitions before and they went 100% smoothly.

At the end of the day, I'm not a business, I dont make money from WOC, its a hobby site, I do my best with the tools I have!

Right, that was the AF competition. I must have missed that announcement but I didn't expect more than a simple reply, scale of the WOC project is irrelevant here. I didn't post anything beside my own experience which my natural judgement is based on. Thanks for the honesty anyway.

What an absolute fool - everybody knows pic 1 is from Bill Elliot's Nascar Challenge! The sound clip one is not too hard - I've narrowed it down to All Dogs Go To Heaven and Penthouse Hot Numbers Deluxe...
