THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU!! Oh my gosh! I finished the morning extended care shift at where j teach to be greeted to the news that I won the other Mega Millions lottery in this Flynn Lives contest!
I am honored and humbled by this announcement! It was incredibly fun to play the game, which would've been enough, but now the anticipation is killing me!
I cannot say I would give a pinky yakuza-style for returning, but I can tell you that no one man should horde the wealth. After all, I would be a hypocrite if as a teacher I tell the kids to be selfless if I am selfish myself. I thought it wouldn't be a lump sum prize, so if I am lucky enough to win, I'm going to try to find a way to distribute most of te prizes -- perhaps in another game sponsored by prize donor, mlinsley.
Is this not a free system after all? As Castor would say, "DRINKS FOR EVERYBODY!!"
Good luck to the shaved ape -- I'm hoping I at least get an arcade aid poster out of it, but if I don't, I had one helluva time already!

Not sure how I did. As I related in my final answer, I already have everything I'm looking for from the posted list. I entered in the hope that "And more" included an EOLC Poster.
Ape: If you win, and because you've stated you already have at least one of pretty much every swag item in the game... Should you get an EOLC poster, please consider me as a trading opportunity.

Meh, I got the OS wrong. But seriously, I didn't have time to research yesterday to get the correct answer.
So all of my answers were quick off the top of my head.
Besides, I never really liked the "Why do you deserve to win" question. I know it's a necessary one, and most would just make some joke out of it or simply say "Because I'm cool". I'm no good at coming up with an answer to that because I'd assume most people here are more deserving than I am
That was an odd question for me also. I don't know many fans of TRON in real life so to share this with you guys means that we are all deserving, right? We all love TRON which makes it awesome to finally have an outlet to share the love!
I was soooo worried the fun would stop after the Digital Pulse Endwave, but it turns out here at UF the fun's just begun.
Here's to the sequel and ZackAttack coming out of the woodworks!

You bet, nothing extra I get will go on ebay, all of the stuff I already have will be given away.
Tagruato has dibs on some things, but most of that list I need so I will definitely be generous with what extras I get IF I win.

I was curious what people put for the Dumont answer.
I elaborated on it's appropriateness given that it's Spanish for "Of the Mountain" and the I/O Tower could be described as such.
