what happens if a song is from 2 games?

Well for example, sample 10 was from DK Barrel Blast and Brawl. It should be DK Barrel Blast since it's the original. Apply the same for all other samples.

If one of them is for a game that's not on the Wii (e.g., Gamecube), then use the Wii one.

Post befoe JD's continues to get updated. 11 has been solved also (by TXC) or 4pts.

ks8, just tellin ya, you're double posting like crazy. But wait, what are we supposed to do?

max, first off actually READ the posts and secondly, I have no choice but to DP sometimes and it's not like I'm spamming one word.

If you're confused, discuss it in the Team Discussion Thread cause it seems like you're out of the loop.

edit:
You guys are running out of time. Expect this contest to close VERY soon...

Also, another contest entry was correct. Post updated.

Okay, it's coming to a close very soon today. I can't say when. Feel free to ask for ANY hints here in the topic or in the shoutbox. you can ask my a hint for anything you're unsure of/want to verify. And there's no harm in guessing, guys.

Team 2, try to take advantage of this free-hint time!

edit:
Team 2 finally got some points! :o
ASK ME FOR HINTS!!! i'm going a LOT easier with hints than I was before.

Some hints that I told Kudo after he posed some guesses:
* Hint for #34: Not only did I get to rent Brawl, but I also got to rent THIS game, which I had to give back yesterday. SOLVED.
* Hint for #24: It's for one of the more innovative games I reviewed months back. SOLVED.
* Hint for #21: None of those. The track name (this means you can't get bonus points for this one) is called "THUNDER ISLAND" SOLVED.
* Hint for #13: It's my favourite Wi-Fi game. SOLVED.

Update: Post 20 updated.
Also, Team 3 is neck-and-neck with Team 1 and Team 2 is catching up.


edit:
Posting SPECIAL hints. Garis and Kudo took advantage of the opportunity.

#2 - Track name: Crystal Canyon. SOLVED.
#8 - Track name: Cobalt Caverns. SOLVED.
#28 - The last contest Kudo just solved is the same answer for this one. SOLVED.
#30 - Track name: Norfair Remix. SOLVED.
#36 - DAHHHHHHHH!!!!! SOLVED.
#39 - Track name: Astral Babylon/Mobius Strip. SOLVED.

More hints for the remaining ones:

#3 will give whoever gets it maximum points. It's a tough one and there's only one person who even has a chance of getting it. I'll give you a clue. What type of game is Strikers and then there's a clue for you.
#4 is the theme for a music mini-game.
#18. Let's Dance!
#19. Bonus track name: "_____ Never Close Doors"
#20. Sounds almost medieval but the game it comes from has nothing to do with "castles" at all. The stage theme for this sample has a background of a Volcano.
#22. A stage that takes place in/around a jungle-themed temple starring DK.
#25. "Must've flown away"!
#29. How can anyone not get this? Zelda is your hint.
#32. Pink! YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO GET THIS!
#35. Aqautic ambience. Duuu duu du du duu. Du du du du dududu.
#37. Are you calling me a "space case"?
#38. Ask small. :o

Day 2 – 12:10

“Well, time’s up everyone. It looks like I chose good samples since not everyone figured them all out. I was pretty impressed and surprised at the ones you guys didn’t get.”

“ks8, can we do this challenge again?” Jesusdragon737 (JD) asks inquisitively.
“We’ll see, JD. We’ll see. If anything, it’ll be different, for sure. You can expect another challenge like this further down the road, particularly when I get the chance to burn a CD for the boom box again when I’m not running around doing things on the Island. You can be assured that there will also be twists next time around and it most certainly will be more difficult. Anyway, you all did good and special thanks goes to those that participated the most for their team. Here are the results:

Team 1 - 32
Team 2 - 45
Team 3 - 57

As of now, the Scoreboard in the very first post has been updated.

Also, I’m awarding bonus points to the team that had the biggest participation (the team with the most different people who sent me entires). That winner is none other than…. Team 3! Congrats guys. You’ve just received 10 more points! Also, the single user that participated the most (sent me the most correct entries/guesses) gets bonus points for their team, also. That person is Garis, who also is, coincidentally, on the winning team! You guys just got 77 poitns form this challenge!! Very impressive.”

“So, tell us why we’re earning points again?” Quinn asks, as if there’s no point.
“I’m sure he has his reasons, Quinn” Rocky replies.
“He’s right, I DO have my reasons. You’ll see soon enough. I will say though that teams must rack up as many points as they can now with upcoming challenges!!” :o

“Uh oh…” max replies anxiously.

“Congrats again to all! Now, for today, I want you to take it a bit easy… sort of. I want you to explore some parts of the Island. You can explore only the parts of the Island I specify for now and you’ll be able to explore more later. You’ll all meet back here at 3:00 (real-time: Thursday most likely) and discuss your findings. This is the range I’m specifying so please visit the bulletin board over by Team 3’s base (look at the map I attached):

The following co-ordinates serve as FOUR CORNERS of a box that tells you were you can explore. I1, E1, E8, I8.

Once we meet and reveal our findings, I’ll reveal them on the map and we can discuss them. You can only explore up to 5 SQUARES PER TEAM and they must follow a path. In other words, you can’t travel diagonally. You need to follow squares in succession. You can start from any square at the bottom that touched the beach/shoreline where we are located (G2 – G7 are all open to you as starting points). You can do so within the next few hours so have a bite to eat, and maybe take a rest because I’m giving you more than the usual time to get as close of a look as you can.

When you reply to me about the path your team followed, YOU NEED TO TELL ME HOW LONG YOU SPENT AT EACH SPOT. It doesn’t have to add up to 3 hours, but it does need to tell me how long you spent on the pathways and how long you explored each square/area thoroughly and then head back to the base, if that makes sense.

This exploration challenge will make use of the Team Discussion Thread so please use it to plan accordingly. Only co-captains and captains can lead the way into the jungle and tell me the path that was followed.

Enjoy your trip and remember! I’ll be watching you…

“DUN DUN DUNNNN!” mew says in the background.
Everyone stares at him.
“Oh right, sorry.”

#3 - The hardest one that I'd award 15-20 points for: SSX Blur!
#18 - DDR Hottest Party
#20 - SMBBB
#25 - SatSR
#32 - Brawl - How could you NOT get this? :o
#35 - NiGHTS xD
#37 - SMBBB

"Hmm... where is everyone..."
I go to look inside some people's camps to see where they are.
"HEY! What are you still doing here? And where'd you get that deck of cards?"
"Chill, dude. Don't have a fit," Danny replies.
"Okay, well it's your time lost. This is a huge opportunity that may not happen for quite a while so it's up to you if you want to waste it."

Meanwhile, I go searching through the other two base camps, and they've just left a while ago.
"Excellent," I reply looking forward to revealing some more of what's on the Island.

KS8 I got "#18 - DDR Hottest Party"
