OFFICIAL LINE RIDER CONTEST


This contest is going to be ran by my colleague and fellow Inxile employee UltimateEpic.

The contest itself will consist of trivia. UltimateEpic will post one question every day (excluding some weekends).

The first five people to reply to contests@linerider.com will receive a free Line Rider T-shirt from inXile Entertainment Inc.

The questions will be posted at random times, so one day it could happen at 8AM while the next day it could happen at 8PM.

No-no The rules are as follows: No-no

- InXile Employees can not participate in this contest.

- Participants under the age of 18 must get parental approval to participate.

- Limited to one win per household.

- Posting of the answers for others to see will lead to disqualification. (Answers have to be emailed directly to the given email).

- Replies to the email must be sent within a week.

- Emails have to be in the following format:

Subject: “LRC -

Message: “Answer.”

So for example, if you were replying to question number 7 and the answer to the question was “Linerider” then it would look something like this:

Subject: LRC – 7

Message: Linerider

The questions themselves will be posted in this thread by UltimateEpic. And the five winners for each question will be contacted via email.

So be on the look out, a question can be posted at any given time starting Friday October 26th, 2007.

Good Luck! Winkey Wink

Many tools and features have been added to Line Rider. However, one thing in particular was missing from the original version on purpose because Bostjan said, "I wanted it (Line Rider) to be, in a way, like life."

Question 8 is now over. Answer: the eraser tool. Bostjan said that you can't erase mistakes in life, so he didn't want to be able to erase the lines that have been drawn.

has this competition stopped?? it says that the last question was posted last wensday??

No, the contest is still going strong. If you see a question that is a day or two old Scared , that means the question is STILL OPEN Confused . I do not post a new question until I have five correct answers from the previous question. Also, there are no questions on weekends. ashamed

So, i know only 2 questions went up last week, but that is because there weren't enough correct replies. Sad

To those of you who don't attempt to answer because you see that the question is a couple hours old: TRY Sticking out tongue . It usually takes a whole day, and sometimes even into the next day (as last week proves) to get 5 right answers. So don't be discouraged if you see the question late in the day. Laughing out loud

Now, on to Question 9:
There are three Olympic sports which utilize a vehicle generically known as a "sled". The sleds are called more specific names in the 3 specific sports, but they are sleds, nonetheless. What are these 3 sports???

9 is Over, time for Question 10

Question 10:
What are the three line types available in Line Rider Beta 2? Shrug

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!! Laughing out loud

WOW. Question 10 took a really long time to get 5 right answers. Just goes to show you people, don't be afraid to try New Winking Icon. Let's move on to question 11 (finally).

Question 11:

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE! You have all weekend, so get those answers in! Laughing out loud
