Guess the screen$

General software. From trouble with the Banyan Tree to OCP Art Studio, post any general software chat here. Could include game challenges...

Looks like it should be in Night Shift, but I'm pretty sure it ain't.

@sn3j - I think the way you expand your pictures by fairly small amounts isn't really helping things, it draws out the guessing way too much ...

There's not much left to guess if I zoom out too much. But let's see how this one goes and later this evening I'll resolve it.

I understand, but you're now on your fourth picture - yet still no one has guessed it (apparently those fans don't seem to be widely known) and you haven't given any clues either. Personally I just prepare three pictures in total, with a big increase in covered screen area each time and then I'll give out clues, though I don't want to tell you how to do yours. Just lately some users start with very small screen areas, then only expand them by little, which will slow down the thread. Personally I'm not enjoying the thread as much anymore due to this ...

Not Total Recall.
It's a fan, as already assumed. It's part of the game to interact with it. And it's an 80's game.

I too wish the thread progressed quicker. (That's why I made the "Show It" game, which doesn't seem to have caught on.)

How about we make a second "Guess the screen$ 2" thread, with a second concurrent competition. That way there's more choice of games to play?

Yes. It's Spider-Man. The room where you have to stop the fan from spinning.

If you want to go on, since you were nearest I think...

I spent far too long in my youth trying to wring some enjoyment out of that wretched 30 Game collection of poop.

It is. I've entered a Dragonsbane picture before now, but I've still had to stare at this without getting it. Good stuff :D
