Title: EYE CATCH Guessing Game / Contest?
Post by: Geirr on January 06, 2006, 12:13:49 pm
I am thinking about suggesting a fast-paced EYE CATCH guessing game:

At 30 second intervals, a number is projected on a screen. (like "No. 31")
One eye catch jingle, or in some caes two, are played back to back (from the same show.)

Players have a sheet of paper with a list of anime shows with a shor blank on the left of each title. You write down the number shown next to your guess for what show you think it is.

SIXTY titles in THIRTY minutes.

One winner is selected as the sheet with the most correct answers.

Jingles & eye catches are mostly 3 to 9 seconds long.

Comments?

Actually that sounds like it would be alot of fun but definitely difficult, you would just have to like set some rules, like nothing can be repeated and such that way it doesn't drag on


Actually that could work out really well.. I think you should do it!

Title: How it works?

You -KNOW- this will be hard to explain in TEXT, right?

Example: You see the number "8" on a screen, and hear the trumpety, A-Team-like
DAH-ta-dat-DAH, da-da, DAT." (Three seconds!)

And then you search from the pre-printed list, and write '8' (the number on the screen) next to "FULL METAL PANIC" on the list.

30 seconds later, the screen shows "9" and you hear the next eye-catch:
Baroque violins and harpsichord! (Five seconds) Oh, wait I know this - it's Rinzelmine!
NO - I mean ROZEN MAIDEN.

Look down the list, put a '9' next to 'Rozen Maiden.'

NEXT ... And So on!

I am thinking that the list should be alphabetized for quick searching, but also have MORE series names on it that will actually be played (to prevent the 'process of elimination' tactic common to match-up tests.)

Now, how would you guys feel about:
(a) including BLANK LINES so if you were SURE that a title was not on the list you could do a write-in, and
(b) me actually THROWING IN  a few write-in items which are indeed NOT on the list so you'd have to recall the title YOURSELF. (One or two max.)

This might feel like an 'extra credit' question, or 'bonus points.'

yeah Geirr, if there was a pre-printed list of animes, that would make it alot easier,just need to not use the same anime twice
