First person to post gets to select the "question", next time I check the thread I'll post the "question" and first person to correctly "answer" gets the points and gets to select the next "question". At some point if there are no correct answers I'll bzzzt and the person who asked the last "question" gets to ask another "question". Also, no google allowed. You're on live television.

to Maelstrom for the next one.

Since when does Contra resale for $40? Probably wouldn't have gotten it regardless though; was going to say either Gradius or Blaster Master.

You could probably join? Most of the 1000 ones are left, so maybe you could still catch up?
Quote from: BlackDragonSlayer on May 27, 2017, 05:45:55 PMAileron roll?
correct. Selection goes to BDS.
nebbles, you can always answer any question. The daily doubles are still active as well, then after the second jeopardy board we'll do final jeopardy
Okey dokey :D
Quote from: NocturneOfShadow on May 27, 2017, 04:38:28 PMThe Star Fox series commonly refers to this real acrobatic maneuver.
If the correct answer is "Aileron Roll," I take issue with the wording of this answer. The series
refers to the Barrel Roll, even if that is not the correct maneuver being demonstrated. This answer should have been something along the lines of "The Star Fox series commonly uses the incorrect term for this real acrobatic maneuver."
I realized that a little after answering you, and if BDS hadn't shown up with the correct answer before I was back to internetland I would have clarified and given you another guess
If that's the case then you should give the next choice to Dudeman, as you phrased the question poorly and Dudeman is still technically correct to the answer you presented.
Also, posting for notifs, not that I'll be able to answer any of these in time.
Ugh I have to leave something here because I can't delete posts.
