@GTV reviews the Cosmic Fantasy 1-2 Switch collection by Edia, provides examples of the poor English editing/localization work. It's much worse for CF1. Rated "D" for disappointment, finding that TurboGrafx CF2 is better & while CF1's the real draw, Edia screwed it up...

I already have the GoT game with Bonk's Adventure so I'll remove myself from that raffle so hopefully someone who doesn't own the game can have a chance to enjoy this classic.

However I don't have Taken it to the Hoop, so please add me.  I'm sorry folks here jumped all over you for trying to come up with a fun way to involve the participants.  With the elections coming up, I may have picked something a little less polarizing, but I got a good lol when you originally posted.

No, life just got really, really busy lately.

I will definitely finalize and mail out the raffle early next week, but I may not be able to check up on this thread much in-between.
Hey, I just wanted to reassure you that The Professor can be cranky sometimes. Don't worry about it.

Also, when I read your original post, an incredible desire to use vulgarities welled-up in my heart. I don't know what I was thinking (such juvenile behavior), but I'm feeling a little fucking better now :pcgs:.

See?

Maybe you should be stating "despite what others think AND said". I'm not the only one who felt disdain and vocalized it over this raffle, and I am not some fucking group spokesman to go directing blame on if he left, so don't try to use me as your soul target of blame on the matter, because I don't play patsy and I don't fucking play scape goat for anyone. If he left over this bs, whatever, he asked for it and he coulda corrected it IF he cared to, which he didn't obviously. I'm sure life will go on regardless of no one winning a free copy of Takin it to the Hoop after confessing their undying love of Texas and biting their tongue for a bit or wtf ever.

If anyone feels they wasted their time doing so and wants to bitch about it, whatever. Just because a dog rolls over doesn't mean he always gets a strip of bacon. Next time do yourself a favor and don't make a fool of yourself for a chance to win cheap games. Instead just suck it up and go buy them elsewhere, or wait for a raffle from someone who doesn't demand you do cheap pony tricks for their amusement. :roll:
I think that you are taking things WAY too seriously.  Not only you, but anyone who was seriously offended by this raffle.  Remember, its a video game forum, and he is giving something away for free, and jokingly added some stuff on the end for fun, not demanding someone from another country to denounce their citizenship with a gun to their head.  Chill.

How come I got 3 extra entries for Bonk2, but not for Takin' it? Not that I care much, I'm just curious.

My bad.  I just added two extra entries for you for the magic phrases, but for the third one, you indicated that you would likely be raffling off in case of a win for Bonk's Revenge, but not for Takin' it to the Hoop.  If I'm mistaken, please let me know.  I will double-check everyone's entries and 'bonus entries' at the time that I finalize the entries before drawing.

Oh, I'll raffle something off again nevertheless. Probably next time I get some imported stuff I'll get a few commons to raffle for those who are just starting out/don't have them.

Not sure why there are complaints here. He is offering up free games and has every right to make rules and or stipulations as he sees fit since he is the one who is giving the games away.

Just over 24 hours left for sign-ups.

Entries basically closed, but if anyone wants to go for any of the 'bonus raffle tickets", then they are welcome to do so.  I won't be double-checking bonus tickets and drawing until Monday morning sometime.  If anyone else tries to get into the raffle before I draw, I might be gracious and add them in.  We'll see.

It's too bad that we didn't get 30 or more entrants or even 25.  I was really kind of hoping that we would, so that we could have the third raffle.  (It was in the fine print in the first post.)  Oh well, maybe I'll have another raffle later for those.

I love America! so pls give me another ticket for both.

I just checked and I have the TV Sports Basketball and not Takin it to the Hoop, so if possible sign me up for that.

Firebomber7

Quote6.  If there are at least 30 entrants in the above raffle by the end of the raffle period, then I will add a third raffle in which all entrants will be entered(this raffle would be drawn first, & the winner will be removed from other 2 raffles) under the same above rules with the winner's choice of any 3 loosies of the following:  Bloody Wolf, Bonk's Adventure, Bonk's Revenge, J.J & Jeff, Keith Courage, Legendary Axe, Splatterhouse, Super Volleyball, Takin' it to the Hoop, Tiger Road, and/or PCE Street Fighter II.  I expect winner to choose 3 games which he doesn't already have and actually wishes to play.  How's that for a bonus for having read the fine print?
I choose Bloody Wolf and Tiger Road (unless my deal to get Bonk's Revenge falls though, then I want Bonk's Revenge).

Hey, do I get an extra ticket for putting up a raffle after this one went up?  :P  Good luck to all the entrants.

P.S. - 42 is one of my favorite numbers as well.  It is the answer, after all.

I'm finally getting some time to do the drawing.
I'm not sure of which random number generator sites are the best, so I'll use http://www.random.org/lists/ and hope for the best.

Since I've been delayed, I'll double-check for 'bonus raffle tickets' and then draw momentarily.

Quote from: CPTRAVE on 08/20/2012, 11:08 PMHey can I get an extra ticket also, I put up a raffle.
Sure.  I'll go ahead and add it now.

This "max-level forum psycho" (:lol:) destroyed TWO PC Engine groups in rage: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook "Because Chris 'Shadowland' Runyon!," then the other by Aaron Nanto "Because Le NightWolve!" Him and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together... Both times he blamed the Aarons in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner, never himself nor his deranged, destructive, toxic turbo troll gang!

damn came out on to top of the first random list to make it into the top ten too... have you hacked the random list generator?
NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)
BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere. You can't tell most retro gamers anything!
