Aw man I missed the first game. I was at class when it happened. Hopefully I get in on the next game. I can't believe no one got the final jeopardy question as soon as I saw the question I knew it. I think the game questions are fine as is.

Since Daily Doubles are questions, wanting harder questions would mean harder daily doubles.

Very good. I think I could have held my own in that game. I do have one question though. The last question of the first was "Along with Donkey Kong, this character made his Kart debut in Mario Kart 64...but just barely. (Early builds of the game included the Magikoopa Kamek in his place)" but didn't Donkey Kong appear in the first Mario Kart, in Super Mario Kart? I'm positive Donkey Kong appeared in that game.

That was Donkey Kong Jr., I believe. I know it wasn't regular DK.

Right you are. Super Mario Kart had Mario, Luigi, Peach (Toadstool back then, I believe), Toad, Bowser, Koopa Troopa, and Donkey Kong Jr. Although, depending on who you ask and what game you play, you could argue that Donkey Kong Jr. IS the Donkey Kong we know today, but that's a whole different manner altogether.

Yeah, Nintendo isn't particularly interested in continuity. Super Mario Kart's Donkey Kong Jr. and Mario Kart 64's Donkey Kong are noticeably different characters, so I treated them that way in the question. Also, in case anyone was curious...

I apologize. I have been working bit-by-bit on a new game since the last one was finished, but it's really hard to come up with new questions/categories/games to focus on. I just finished a new category, though, and I should be able to (hopefully) have a new game by early next week.
Again, I am very sorry for anyone who has been waiting for another round to start. I greatly appreciate everyone's continued interest in this game, and I will be post here again as soon as I have more news.

I never bumped this thread because you were being inactive. I knew that you'd be working hard on it. It's the other people. The contestants. To get them back in the game, if you will.
