nitroseed Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 I thought I'd start a new little "trivia" type contest that I think could be pretty fun. It might also help you as a designer to sharpen your eye for detail! You already know the name of the game from the title, so I'll explain the rules:You will get three 50x50 images, with only one being revealed every 24 hours. You will get a maximum of three images. The images will be small thumbnails of some part of a logo. These images will be stripped of all color to prevent giving it away. You must guess what the logo is using only the details in those three pictures. This particular logo, since it is the first contest, is one of the logos in the major four leagues: NFL, NBA, NHL, or MLB. However, in the future, I may use a logo from minor leagues or colleges as well. It can be ANY logo from ANY team in those four leagues. That includes any primary logos, any seconaries, any wordmarks, anything that is used as an official mark for any of those teams.You will only have 72 hours to guess what logo this is. After that, I will declare you all to be big losers. SO... without further ado... here is the first logo! Good luck! Deadline is April 18th. The logo will be totally revealed on April 19th.Second image update: April 17th, noonish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Clemente Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 I'm guessing it's either the Oilers' Oilman logo or some sort of animal logo from the NBA.--Roger "Time?" Clemente. Follow me on Twitter if you care: @Animal_Clans.My opinion may or may not be the same as yours. The choice is up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAD! Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 Damn. I'm have a tough time on this one. I'll guess the Minnesota Timberwolves? I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IowaFan26 Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 I wanna say the Denver Nuggets, but I'm pretty sure thats gonna be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJR Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 I wanna say Colorado Avalanche but that seems to obvious (given the time of year and your team of preference). I'm going to say Memphis Grizzlies. FantasyHockeySim.com || DetroitHockey.Net || DetroitHockey.Net FHL || cjr.dev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sec19Row53 Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 What part of the logo is that? In other words, could you "highlight" the part of the Oilers logo that you originally chose? It's just that I'm a dumba$$ and can't find it on my own It's where I sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just that I'm a dumba$$ and can't find it on my own The oilman's left knee (on our right), where it meets the stick.For some reason, the Oilers' oilman logo seems to be a common guess in these types of games. Maybe because it got screwed out of a place on the Oilers' alternate jersey... but that's for another thread, at another time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAD! Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 Wait a minute. Why is the colour on the picture different that the actual logo? That really fooled me. I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowcap30 Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 the color would give it away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 These images will be stripped of all color to prevent giving it away.There's your answer quad. It's in grayscale, which makes this tough. I don't think this one was too easy Nitro... I wouldn't make it any harder! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitroseed Posted April 16, 2004 Author Share Posted April 16, 2004 Glad you guys like the idea. And by the way, from now on, you'll be required to specify which logo it is, and not just the team. I might also require you to find a picture of the logo and identify where on the logo the details I've given you are. Just to make things interesting!

zoneranger Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 Someone tried a contest like this a while back, and I thought it was a great idea then (Although I could never identify the logo! ) Good Luck with the new trivia game Nitro! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
