Meaty's quiz at breakpoint.. contestants needed

category: general [glöplog]
i do suggest more nevermind the buzzcocks inspired quiz parts, such as
get one of ne7's noisebendered little casio keyboards and have someone play a demosoundtrack and the others in the team guess it. etc! guess the next line of poetry in Replay intros. line up 5 sceners and let us guess who used to be singer in a popband in the early 90s!
I'm assuming ne7 will turn up with one of his circuit bended keyboards, but I have to keep it down to 30 minutes. If you annoy me, I might enforce the dreaded "custard" round...

not without nigella lawson!
I've understood that I'm participating as well! Gotta brush up on my demo knowledge, then...

To be honest, only the first round involves knowledge of the demoscene. After that, you just have to be creative and put up with cruel jokes being played on you. :-)

Heh, sounds like fun to me!

nooooo, more demoscene knowledge rounds!!!
You know every time I read the title of this thread I read it as "… constants needed". Too much coding :/.

const maali = 0;
my sirname is constant. I should've been a physicist and invented "constant's constant".

Reuse the babyfood round. I think it would work well on the unsuspecting public...

Maybe combine the babyfood round with the insanity hot sauce round. Or would the two cancel each other out and result in actual edible food? This calls for some SCIENCE.

(The demoscene round should be "guess the production from the Solo2 Pouet comment", by the way)

Meaty: You know, if you defined the Constant Constant to be 1, you could theoretically apply it to *any* equation... You'd be dead famous.

BUMP!!! Look, there's a bottle of champagne for the winners! I'm going to make a total dick of myself at breakpoint, and I'd appreciate it if I could get 2 people to help me :-)

is there going to be a "knobbly knees" round?
what about an egg and spoon race?

there's going to be a "beat the fuck out of smash" round at this rate.

What about divide the competition into three teams, coders, musicians and artists.
added on the 2010-03-08 16:42:55 by Deus Deus
There needs to be a musician on each team for the music round. Ne7 and Syphus are covering that bit. That said, if I don't get 2 more contestants soon, i'm going to have to pull the plug on the whole thing. :(

bump!

All contestants will be well looked after. Nobody will be injured or embarrassed. It's just something very silly to do in that bit on sunday while everyone's waiting for the demos to start. Don't make breakpoint go back to doing banana eating competitions again!

The harshest thing I ever did was make them eat babyfood whilst watching "2 girls 1 cup". I have since toned down my requirements :-) The worst thing you might have to do is sing to syphus's fucking awful rendition of "livin on a prayer" played on a chiptune synth.

It'll be a lot of fun, and I'm working my ass off on this. Coming up with the questions so that they're funny is hard :-)
