Ah, trivia fun, great idea! Hurry up and send your answers in, folks. Trying to resist sending mine because I already have it...

 

[capi3101]

Mine are in. Had the first one and the last one right off the bat; second one I'm not entirely sure about......

 

[Whistler]

I won a copy!

Thanks to Chris Reid, who convinced me that I should attempt an entry anyway.

Hope to do battle with you folks when I get my PC back up and running. I haven't played it in over 15 years but hey, you got to start somewhere.

It seems there were some extra freebies! With Armada comes 7 other titles including two Ultimas!

WC: Armada, Warsow, something called Treasure Adventure Game, Beneath a Steel Sky, Tyrian 2000, Dragonsphere, and most awesome Ultima IV and Savage Empire.

I have no idea who Cypsiss is but thanks to him/her for gifting these games for the contest.

Drat - I won too, but I'd already bought the game from GOG yesterday! Should've looked at the prize first...

I don't want somebody to miss out because of my stupidity; is it too late for me to retract my entry?

 

[ChrisReid]

I think we're just about squared away with winners/prizes.

I have no idea who Cypsiss is but thanks to him/her for gifting these games for the contest.

Hey, these copies of Armada were actually donated by the GOG team. We have loose plans to do more things like this ourselves, but the Birthday Party each August takes a lot of prep time and recovery (sending out all the prizes) as it is. But these digital giveaways are much more convenient, so there's some potential out there... We could even set something up relating to Armada multiplayer someday!
