Super Robot Wars? Haha! Well, I'm fairly good with Strategy games, but I can't personally make effective use of any bounties. Maybe I can help out an SRW Walkthrough writer though. After all, I've had experience, which my Fire Emblem 1 FAQs show.

CJayC, you rock. I'm guessing that you won't be paying out for the Overlord FAQ. Seriously, in my 9 years on the internet and 18 years playing NES games, I know absolutely nobody who has beaten that game.

Woo for my suggestion in Catrap. I'd really like to fill that one, if I ever get around to finding the cart... If I can find Kya for $15 at Target, I might fill that bounty... Otherwise, I'll likely pass.

I'd love to see someone write a FAQ for Wizards & Warriors X. I expect an "argh" count of at least 20. ; ) It's a good game, but the "arghs" would really convey the hella irritating experiences you're bound to come across. : )

From: antseezee | Posted: 2/7/2004 2:47:29 AM | Message Detail
^ Actually, I think he's just going to replace them at the end of each month, sort of like he did this past month. It'd be a lot easier, and it would actually comply with the contest rules. This way, multiple entries can be sent in for each bounty (hence Kain sent one for Little Ninja Brothers, and Devin will probably do the same). Then, a random drawing will determine the winner. The bounty is removed publically, but you can still submit it as a queued item.

Current FAQ Project: Final Fantasy II (Origins, PSX)
From: djg40 | Posted: 2/7/2004 12:03:57 PM | Message Detail
I think CJayC knows exactly what he is doing. He asks the writers which games should get a bounty, and then the writers will write for some of the games that they proffered. Not only that, the prize is now paid by C|Net, I think, so it isn't coming out of his own pocket.

That wasn't very clear, but I hope you got the idea.

Ooh, ooh, Overlord! Much better than its PC parent Supremacy! Actually harder on "Easy" than on "Medium"! The game I've been goofing off with every so often recently!

Blah... once you get the right tax rate (35%) and the right number of people for your food source (2000 on most planets), you can forget about managing any given planet.
Now if you want the numbers for what each ship requires and can do, well... I've got less than half of THAT done.

DeMatt, you are the FAQ God for tackling Overlord. I just emailed you a link to the manual, which may or may not help you.

Have you ever actually beaten the game on the hardest difficulty level? As you may have guessed, Overlord is one of my 17 NES games left to beat and I look forward to the completion of your guide.

By the way, I see you made a guide to Rolan's Curse for the GB. I LOVED that game back in the day. The sequel is pretty good too.

Many thanks for the manual text, adaml. I knew I had names wrong, and this will help me avoid unknowingly regurgitating the manual.

On a side note, I put up the first version of the FAQ - it's nowhere near done - and already I have two requests to host my FAQs. IGN and cheats.de, no less. I am amused.
