And don't ask for which game. You know very well which game.

It's included in the file, mostly for comparison purposes.

Now all we need is for somebody to approve my review, or at least look over it and tell me what's wrong with it (hint hint)

I'm on the job. I'll have your review this week or the next.

I am curious, however, why the score wasn't higher, considering the game was "concievably the best 4 minutes of OHR." The only improvement you suggested was music-related. (The music, by the way, is seven tracks which are repeated at increasing tempos.)

Oh, and the game show is "Double Dare."

The score is as low as it is by adding up the actual totals, dividing by 5 and then coming to an equivalent grade letter. However, this results in a score of around 70% or a "C". I felt the game deserved better, hence its higher score.

The second reason is because nobody questions a grade of "B+".

That's a bad second reason. The first is skewed by the story score, which is totally irrelevant for a trivia game. If you do a direct average of the other four score totals, it comes out to a 8.5 (B+), but by direct averaging it should be impossible to get an A+ unless you have near perfect scores.

Ah, well. I can't complain. :\
