    No needs for apologies. Actually not many people play that map in CS:S and Classic so.. It's common.

    I answered all questions correctly if you don't get mad that I can't explain where the stairs are at... it's kinda confusing while I explain.

    Good luck everyone and thanks for that giveaway.

    I have to say the 5th one was kinda tough. I know there was game released that year, but don't know if it was early or late. Put it as my answer anyway.

    As for the 3rd question, I didn't know that there was an official title?

    To clarify for question 3, since Nick also was confused by what the 'area' is called - it has a recognised name which all players refer to it as which I'm looking for. You may amend your question 3 entry only if you already entered.

    Extra hint -

    My brother is going to be beyond jelly if I win one of the copies. It's the only game he's been talking about for the past month.

    Awww. I was hoping it was going to be a HL2.net forum trivia quiz. What was the Princess_Jen incident? What is a Munravatar? What is the name of Halflife2.net's most famous troll?

  13. DEATH eVADER
    Okay, well I got the 3rd question wrong then


    Are you sure, I think he was banned before you signed up, but either he or someone pretending to be him registered as KngHenry later on

    Please don't post answers in the thread, regardless of what form you put them in. It's pretty stupid and I expect more sense from you Riomhaire.

  17. Alex2the3gr8
    Basically yes... I didn't know this website had a forum until today anyway. However, I do visit this site regularly and may use the forums more.
    Aren't most competitions used to promote something? Well it worked :D

    Now I get it. These competitions...all ruses to keep people joining and minimally active since there is no HL news on hl2.net anymore.

    I have a spare copy of Portal.... :(

    Halflife2.net is here to keep everyone up to date on the absence of news.

    Competitions!? It's just one, we haven't had any for a while. I thought I would be nice and give them away rather than to my friends and family. DEATHMASTER has made me reconsider that I should do anything for you guys. In the future I will just post an announcement that I have prizes but I'm keeping them because DEATHMASTER doesn't want you to have nice things. Everyone blame him.

    Actually, Glenn's giving them all to me so I can play 5 copies of the same game at the same time on 5 different computers.

    I'm pretty sure for the second one I said something like "sucky portal holes" or something equally crazy. I'm not even sure if you counted that. For the last one I was torn between Ragdoll Kung-fu and Darwinia but I chose correctly.

    Congratulations everyone

  36. Overwatch Sector
    Yes! I won again.

    Although I was confident of getting #5 right because I simply looked it up on wikipedia, I was leary about #2. A bit hard for me. Luckily I got all questions right.

    Luck of the draw Overwatch, are you on some kind of winning streak?

    I just sent out keys to the winners via PM. Enjoy.

    Pretty much. Maybe I might let the next competition slide. Unless its another game I want. I'm looking foward to those CS:GO beta keys giveaway.

    How can 17,5 people get the answers correct? Hm... :p

    I did answer correctly to all of them but didn't win. Well, congrats to the winners and have a good one.

    PS: In the answers I said... Not through the tunnel but under the bridge, because it's bridge looking. And also the way you pop up right to the CT spawn.
