Title: Distinct Blurs
Post by: Weehawk on August 16, 2014, 08:25:14 am
Indeed. Now, if we can get some Distinct Blurs going on, we'd be set :).
Why not?

Below are screenshots from 20 golden-era arcade games. Each has been pixelated by shrinking it down to 10% or so, then re-enlarging to previous size.

Please respond in a single post with as many of the games pictured as you can identify. I will respond to each set of guesses with the number that are correct (but not which ones are which   <thefinger>). You may guess again, but only after I have responded to your previous set of guesses.

The first one to get all 20 correct in one post wins. If no one gets all 20 by midnight Eastern Daylight Time Sunday night (about a day and a half), whoever has gotten the largest number correct in a single post wins. Ties broken by earliest submission of tying score.

For the winner I have a t-shirt:

16  Levers

I've never even heard of this Rock-Ola game, and that's after years of collecting and reading the KLOV forums where even the most obscure stuff gets discussed.  I'm betting that no dedicated cabinet of Levers even exists at this point, and just the board set is probably exceedingly rare.

Thanks for the game Weehawk.

Does that sweet shirt design mean we can soon expect the return of GEGOTW?  Well, regardless, nice to see you posting.
