If you would like to attend the drawing process, we will be having a live discussion on IRC at 01:00am GMT (drawing in progress!).

*: we decided that we'd also accept "GBAtemp Classic" as an answer as the question was a bit ambiguous. The other 2 choices were completely wrong though.
Congratulations to all 181 of you who got them all right!

About the drawing process
We will first be picking a small random selection of ten people among the members who answered correctly to all the questions. Then, we will proceed to generating a number between 1 and 10 that will determine the winner. Picking numbers will be done by an IRC bot (phergie).

How to attend the drawing?
We'll be doing the drawing on the #tempmas channel on our own IRC server, irc.gbatemp.net:5190. Unfortunately the CGI IRC page is down so you'll have to either use the Java Applet or connect to the server using your existing mIRC client. Discussion will be allowed on the channel between each roll.
Good luck everyone!

Good luck to whoever won... :/
 
haha. I knew I got question 3 right but I am glad I argued to get it omitted. even though I know I got it right I still think it needed to go. It was a really vague and odd question. Correct me if I am mistaken but the last choice, GBAtemp Navy and orange doesn't even exist right? there was no skin called that ya?
 
I think I actually got all of them right... Except for number three. I put GBA Temp classic, but since they said it was right I guess it's okay now.

I'm one of the 181.
Everything was obvious but the skin one, which I barely remembered from back then (lol, ages ago XD)
But my memory was correct

I love how this was tailored toward people who have been here longer instead of being where random nubs had an equal chance.
Especially the CNET one. Most hilarious april fools joke evar!
