(I will be out of town for the last week of June so the game may have to be put on hold if I can't get to a computer.)
Stage 1 - Easy - 10 points per question. (100 pts)
Stage 2 - Med. - 20 points per question. (200 pts)
Stage 3 - Hard - 30 points per question. (300 pts)
Bonus points may also be given for extra information regarding a question or topic. The bonus points will be made up as we go along like in "Whose Line is it Anyway".
The winner gets.. well.. uh... the knowledge of know he/she completed the game with the most points. So, even though I keep points, the points are essentially pointless.
Stage 1, Question 1:
"Hey, Do you have a canoe I can borrow. Please." From what website did that quote originally come from?

Search for Canoe, and you've got it. While I hightly doubt that is the page you were looking for, it has it none-the-less. ;D
Post by: Luigison on June 14, 2003, 08:56:40 PM
By the way, the quote is not 'written' on the original page.

Well, I would assume then that, http://www.joecartoon.com/ is what you want, as it says that very same quote as you move your curser over the sections.
Hm, I really wish I didn't watch those two Super Fly cartoons before I actually noticed that the quote was exactly what it was said. I truely do want those 4 minutes back.

Your favorite joke is:
Q: Why is toad invited to all the parties?
A: Becuase he's such a fungi!
It originally came from those classics, the Valiant Mario Bros. comic books. I liked those.
In honor of this question, I submit another joke:
Q: Why does Mario often appear in Bartlett's "Familiar Quotations"?
A: He really loves to "coin" a phrase!

For the bonus Lizard Dude gets 2 points. One for each site. Although, I don't know if Dept. 6 counts since it is a homepage the other sites. Anyway, it showed me that the Deez likes NIN and knowing that is worth a point. The Broken LP is my favorite.

Post by: Insane Steve on July 19, 2003, 05:54:15 PM
1. The background is green on the SMAS flag and white on the SMB one.
2. The SMAS flag is flying around in the wind, whilst the SMB flag is motionless.
3. The SMAS flag is pennant shaped, like the "No passing zone" sign, and the SMB one is shaped like an upside down isosceles right triangle. Different shape.
And the Bonus, I didn't see much, but on the DX edition, Mario exited onto an overworld map, which didn't happen in either of the other editions.
If you have any questions on any Mario game for the GameCube, any at all, please keep them AS FAR AWAY from me as possible. I don`t want to look like a total idiot in front of the whole forum. Thanks in advance.
Post by: Luigison on July 19, 2003, 06:08:46 PM
For the bonus I was looking at the way Mario gave his victory/peace sign and backed through the door of the castle. So no more bonus points this round.

1. You could run under Bowser and get the Ax

Bowser, Spinys, Spiny Eggs, Piranha Plants, Bloopers, Koopas and Paratroopas can't be (completely) defeated via stomping, but CAN with a Fireball.
Podoboo, Firebar, and Buzzy Beetle can't be defeated, although Buzzy Beetles can be when careened with a shell.
Actual stompable (AND defeated) enemies: Goomba, Hammer Bros. and Cheep Cheep (out of water)
