All of you that haven't played, you missed an easy prize because all people that participated - won something  The winners will be contacted shortly and they will choose their prizes.Answers to the first set of questions: 1. When did Abandonia first appear on the internet? Give exact date. 21.06.1999. 2. How is this date relevant to Kosta's (owner's) family? Birthday of his mother, Ines 3.

Ken Williams - He founded Sierra On-Line, for nearly two decades one of the world's leading PC game makers, selling it to Cendant Corp. in 1996 for $1 billion. 6. Duke Nukem is a series we all know very well... but! The very first game in the series had 2 official names (depending on which version you have of the game). One of the names were of course Duke Nukem. What was the second name? Give a reason as to why for extra score! Version 2.0 was named Duke Nukum. Reason: Apogee heard rumours that there was another game character in Europe with the copy-righted name of Duke Nukem. Because of this they quickly changed the name to Duke Nukum. Later they realized that the name wasn't copy-righted, so they bought the rights and the series have been named Duke Nukem ever since. 7.

Jean Reno as Jacques Blanc in Onimusha 3 8. id Software had many alternative titles to Wolfenstein 3D (not all were serious, but they were still made). Name 5 alternative titles.

Why is this person's admin status undisputable? - Titan. The Abandonia forums had a very slow start. Even 3 months after the opening it still had only around 2 new posts per day and I was determined to close it because I thought it will never come to life and serve any purpose to the site.
