Seems that nobody is interested in getting squares as this thread is totally dead, oh well, just in case I remember that you have till the 1st of november when I log in (No school so expect me soon). And then I'll give away the quantity prizes.

I don't think I'm going to have any more time to look for more differences. I still have 25 Al Dente holds to play as well. I have to work Tuesday and Wednesday nights too. I hope to try again soon.

Jaso, thanks for the list, but you made some mistakes.

Jason wrote:
Enclosed because of huge content!:

Spot the Differences 1
Room 1 the gate by the roach queens isn't toggleable, Room 2 it is.
In room 1 there are 4 eyes facing north, room 2 there are 3
In room 1 you start at 29,16 - in Room 2 you start at 28,16
One of the roach queens in the NE chamber face different directions in the 2 rooms.
The roach queens in the SW are facing different directions.
The very crumble wall is in different locations.
There is more of the wall in room 2 at 19,5 and 20,5
A force arrow was added under the blue snakes head

Spot the differences 2
Floor at 9,1 changes
Crumble wall at 36,28 is in room and not room 1
Bush at 14,9 changes direction
Room 2 the brain can't be real, nothing reacts to it
orb at bottom shuts door in one toggles in the other

Spot the differences 3:
a different character is used to kill the decoy
In 1E of room 2 a character appears before you exit, not in room 1
Roach at 16,6 is NPC in room 2
broken wall at 22,17 in room 2 not in room 1
broken wall at 37,0 in room 2 not in room 1
checkpoint under right eye in room 2 not in room 1
road under left eye in room 1 not in room 2

Spot the differences 4:
solid wall at 3,4 in room 2
roach turns into roach queen at 11,4
spider with the wubbas in room 2
extra wall with the serpant at 22,24
orb at 13,27 shuts in room 2 toggles in room 1

Spot the differences 5:
room 2 is impossible because of different black wall placement.
Checkpoint at 24,5 in room 2
Room 2's label says D'0h in stead of D'Oh
force arrow under slayer in room 2

The red one is one nobody found!!! So 2 squares Jason!

The orange ones are unintended
The yellow one was by mistake, and was corrected in the last version. (Found here)

Yep, I noticed that too. So I decided to give a hint per difference.(No squares are now sure since they are pretty spoilerish some)
Std2:
Std3:
Std4:

Std5:Remember that for this one you need the update since the previous was impossible to complete.

There have been spotted! A miracle!
Both right, so another category concluded, and since they were pretty spoilerish, no squares.

I counted that one already, since you said it was impossible because of the placement, you said then as well that it was a difference.

This is taking now too long, I gave too many hints and yet no findidngs, so when the month ends, I close the game and will proceed to give special award in a new style. (got a new board type idea, maybe i'll do it)

Oh, I didn't think it would be that tough, oh well, just a bump reminder that tomorrow is the 30th, that will be the last day to find differences.

And since squarepot is pretty difficult, another hint.
Squarepot:

And the new board is almost ready, I just got a new game, played it, and had such fun I thought how to make it forum powered, and found how. Pretty complicated for me to do (looots of randomising work and score assignment)

Well, anyone know the game "slingo"? There did the idea come from.

That's not going to work because a few of the stairs end the hold so I am pretty sure it is impossible to get through the blue door.

emm, do they, don't tell me I forgot again, if so then I have a huuuuuge problem since I made then squarepot more than impossible. Let me check and if not i'll post a fix here. There won't be however any more time since the game took too long.

EDIT: yep, there are indeed 2 stairs not working, buuuut no fix is comming since the error only happens in one of both rooms, so if it end the hold one of them, the other works fine for sure.
The rooms bugged are
StD5 Room 2 (take exit stairs of room 1)
StD2 Room 1 (not sure about if it was that one, but I think it is so take exit stairs of room 2)

And I am afraid the game is over!!!!

It was great while it lasted but all has it's end, it's time to announce some things.

1st: Time to test the new form to get squares, might be more fun, even if more complicated, must yet do the random engine, but the visual is done, I attach the board, and it will work as follows.

-You will get spins according on the differences, each one grants a spin.
-The matching number tiles will be revealed, the scores added and the cell contents activated.
-There is as well some interaction because of special squares and jokers, more detail later
-The winner is the one with most points, that person gets bonus square (I mean a coloured one!)
-Squares will still be awarded, and some cells hide them as well
-Getting a row brings points as well, to know who did who there will be colour coding, each cell will have the players colour, lines (Called "Slingos"[There is the name of the game])will be coloured as well.
-Have fun! (If you don't understand, ask me, before I start I will give some days, till engine is done)

2nd. Winners prizes: Will come in my next post since I need another attachment for squarepot demo. To play it you need to find the secret room accesible from the hold exit.

3rd. Squarepot value: It was 4 squares, plus now 7 squares, that makes a new squarepot of 11 squares!!!

4th: Missing differences:
StD3:
A spider NPC appears suddently
Room description has a . missing
StD4:
A brain is a NPC
The new type, The expression of the hold builder in the phrase "I'm afraid never"
StD5:
Speech when exiting the StD chamber
Tarbaby appears suddently
NPC appearance when teetering pit edge

Well, lets se who's the winner. Time to count!
Waaaaaaait! My apologies, I just realized NOW that squarepot is indeed impossible, oh my what a mistake, so as compensation, +4 squares to the next one!

Well, back to the positions...
John: 7 differences
Tokyokid: 5 differences
Jason: 16 differences

So the clear winner is Jason!!! You build the next hold and get to choose a square! (Oh wait, 2, the double prize rule applies as well here)

And now off to make the new engine. I hope you had fun and sorry that I made some bad mistakes.

I said the new board that the random engine picks them, and well, you know what? I'll be a meanie, say any number, and depending if it is even or odd, i'll decide the type.

the result? letter swapper! Choose one person and you swap letters! So off to take away your leeters Jason.

Edit: Ooops, bad expressed, I meant that the letters were only there to remind that you got it, but you cashed them in for the prize so really it is like it says now on the first post, you don't have any.

What? That's odd. So basicly someone else gets bonus and I don't anymore? Actually, what's the point of letters anymore because I already got bonus? Can you just clairify a bit? Thanks.

You still will have bonus till i'm done giving out points, and no one else will get it till they get all the letters.


EDIT THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO: Added attachment to help certain people.

I am still waiting for Jason to decide with who will he swap letters, and I use the opportunity to warn that probably tomorrow I will be done with the engine. (I love it to call engine, but eventually it's the old pick a paper from a bag trick I will use.)
