Spectrum Computing

(I had more but when I wanted to post this, it said someone else had posted, who asked about a possible "three guesses limit"?) I only asked as some quizzes on here have a limit on guesses to stop one or two people finishing the quiz before anyone else gets a chance. :) [mention]MatGubbin...

Nope.

17 = The Yacht

I think 18-20 appear in these screens:
Up on the battlements
We must perform a quirkafleeg
I'm sure I've seen this before

Yes.

That's the one!

Since I can't look at a map and can't be bothered to play the game, I'll try some of the JSW ones from memory, though I may get the names wrong ... I used to play Jet Set Willy LOTS back in the day. 3 = On the roof (or w/e it's called) 6 = Under The Drive 11 = The Bow (I had more but when I wanted ...

No limits on guesses.

An update:

10 - The Tool Shed
12 - The Chapel

All correct!

Did I make this one too hard? You coped fine with the last MM/JSW quiz I did (on platforms).

All correct.

Yes.

Close, but not right.

Yes.

Quiz time again. All of the graphics below are objects from Manic Miner (the Software Projects version) or Jet Set Willy (the original version). Name the screen each appears in. The last object appears in three screens. Looking at maps, walkthroughs or demos is cheating, but playing the games is not...

But at least I'm glad it took all the NPCs less than a month to process the input data and agree with me. :) We really don't agree. ZXVega+. No criticism without offering new information. We don't want to be a platform for ranting or attacks. If you don't have anything factual to add, don't add it....

It's not just you.

[mention]PeterJ[/mention] [mention]R-Tape[/mention] [mention]Ivanzx[/mention] Would you mind deleting my Google Translate meme? On reflection it's a little cruel (even if entirely accurate). Thanks.

For [mention]R-Tape[/mention]'s benefit: It shouldn’t always fall on the same person to refute this sort of rubbish. There are plenty of others who could do it, and probably do it better than me, but I’ll take a turn. Lee Fogarty wrote: » Ok, time to clear this up. Great. Finally, we’ve been waiting...

Even by Lee Fogarty's standards that's risible!

Recent events have reminded me of something....

This looks great! Thanks for sharing.

There's another reason he took the data from ZXDB. The WoS files were hopelessly out of date, and it's easier to fix that by ripping off other people's work than doing it yourself. To be honest, though, I'm not sure Lee's comments are worth this level of analysis. He's shown himself to be a transpar...
