Wow! Thanks David 86...Yep fully understood..Great explanation...So what happens in the final analysis if I don't do anything except post on forums, enjoy the games and talking to other members and so on. Will I be considered unproductive and unnecessary and be transported to another dimension without DOS games.......
You will be tranported to an alternate reality that's precisely the same as this one, except there are no donuts. :P (not really)

There was some talk about using Pieces of Eight to access VIP content and such (not that there has been a VIP area since the move). I don't know how exactly it is supposed to work or when (and [b]if[b/]) it will actually be implemented.

I'm not sure if this was before, but work done for the site is calculated in pieces of eight. I have 150 and have never solved a screenshot quiz.

Of course not really. There the rain consists of donuts. Everybods knows this.


Someone with pixelart skills should do coin sprites, so we can depict everyone's wealth at an extra page. :cool:

I think you need to hit refresh. The beach boy screen shot was like two weeks ago.

Ok...well I wondered about the screen being the same for so long...Just clicked onto the site.. I have been away for a while....and the game screen is DIFFERENT some kind of strategy game I think and I have been told that I have already had a go and will have to wait for 1 hour and 45 minutes!! BEFORE I CAN GUESS AGAIN...What's happening here...By the way I haven't (had a go at guessing I mean) And just as a matter of interest WHO WERE THE BEACH BOYS!!:confused:...SAL

You can only answer each edition of the quiz once. Entering an answer in the box and pressing Enter sends it.
Also, the box will automatically display a list of matches after you type in a portion of a name that matches something in the database (eg "Larry")
