Identify the games the cursors come from. That's it. No matching. No gimmicks. No craziness.

As in the past, points decrease with the number of guesses.

Guesses 1-25: 4 points
Guesses 26-30: 2 points
Guesses 31-35: 1 point
Guesses 36+: 0 points


Bastich Instant Win #5: One of the cursors has been randomly chosen as an instant winner. The first, if anyone, to correctly identify it will win a game to be claimed at the end of the contest per the tournament rules.

Send guesses by forum PM or by email ([email]agtournament@comcast.net[/email]) ONLY!!

Don't forget to check the Official Tournament Info thread for any general tips and guidelines and Good Luck!

You have gotten the attention of the mysterious lady. She turns to face you. Her face is devoid of any flesh. You are frozen with horror as she begins ripping your body into a bloody mess.

Of course. I'll have to have proof though if it isn't the game I have listed.

You mean getting 98 out of 100 points last week isn't easy?

I commiserate. Been there. Done that. Haven't got the t-shirt. Haven't got the points either.

Bastich, these cursors are all available at the start of the game, right?

The majority, but probably not all.

Several are "wait" cursors as well, so you will only see them when stuff loads.

Right, sorry, I should of been more specific. What I meant was if any of the cursors were obtained from an inventory item picked up halfway through the game or some such.

Status : Offline		It would seem that cursors are a rather tough trivia judging by the scores so far.

Here are a few hints for the one's that aren't answered yet (7,10,11,15,20)

1 of the 5 was once an imposter.
Another has already appeared more than once in the tournament.
In one, you control more than one character... at the same time.
In yet another, the title isn't of English origin.
The last? Well, let's just say someone here at JA REALLY hates the game.

I have concluded that there is an unwritten rule among sites that have screenshots, that you always have to move the cursor off-screen before hitting the PrintScreen button.   >

Yep, I've caught on to that as well. It's very annoying. There's still a few to be found through screenshots, though you'll probably need several hours of spare time to spot them. It's too taxing and tedious for me to bother with I'm afraid.
