Wiki: Nach/TASQuiz Coming forth from some inane rambling interesting conversation on the IRC channel, Nach decided to come up with this TAS Quiz (link above). Do you have the understanding, skills and creativity that are required to create an expert TAS? Note: in order to take the quiz, message Nach with your answers. Do not post answers in this thread, lest you spoil it for other test-takers.
http://www.youtube.com/Noxxa <dwangoAC> This is a TAS (...). Not suitable for all audiences. May cause undesirable side-effects. May contain emulator abuse. Emulator may be abusive. This product contains glitches known to the state of California to cause egg defects. <Masterjun> I'm just a guy arranging bits in a sequence which could potentially amuse other people looking at these bits <adelikat> In Oregon Trail, I sacrificed my own family to save time. In Star trek, I killed helpless comrades in escape pods to save time. Here, I kill my allies to save time. I think I need help.

This can't be a very useful quiz if a TASer as skilled as Forgonemoose can flunk it with such a low score, IMO

Excuse me? Name one answer I made that wasn't thoughtful and objectively correct. I bet you can't.

I got none of them answered and still won.
Warning: When making decisions, I try to collect as much data as possible before actually deciding. I try to abstract away and see the principles behind real world events and people's opinions. I try to generalize them and turn into something clear and reusable. I hate depending on unpredictable and having to make lottery guesses. Any problem can be solved by systems thinking and acting.

No, Color A Dinosaur... (doesn't) have gameplay with any meaningful technical content.
Gee, just because you are SUPER MASTER TASER doesn't mean you have to go and assume that we're all on your amazing level, Professor Nach. I'm sure many here would agree with me when I say that Color A Dinosaur is a challenging and interactive experience, just because you're pro at it doesn't mean everyone else is. Think about someone else for once, please.

Then the wiki is objectively FALSE! The only two reasons why Color a Dinosaur would not make a good TAS is because it doesn't allow you to color a Tiki or a Pony.
