Oops! I completely forgot! Too late...

Perhaps not... I think the results will not be published before the end of the World Cup.

But there has already been matches were European played and it wouldn't be fair

Szerintem meg csak tegnap este óta ismert az utolsó helyes válasz, tehát még egy napnál sem járunk "késés" tekintetében. Amúgy meg péntekig nem leszek a saját gépem elött...

Results on Friday, I'm away.

13 másik válasz esetében viszont már több, mint két hét.

Argh. So close for once.

Glad I got the order of magnitude right on the water question. That was a difficult calculation to do in my head, especially as I didn't remember the formula for the volume of a sphere and couldn't completely figure it out. Good job there Usrin. But of course, that one was right up your street...

Is 1138 also the code of a safe box in Maniac Mansion?

Is 1138 also the code of a safe box in Maniac Mansion?

Wikipedia says: Zak's phone bill at the start of the game is $1138, in reference to George Lucas' THX 1138. $1138 is also the balance of Melissa's cashcard (until the player spends it on tokens for the Tram).

[alanrotoi]

Nothing about Maniac Mansion? I guess is one of the codes you have to watch with the telescope. I'll search it.

[alanrotoi]

Found it!

Maniac Mansion: The number-plate of the Edison's Edsel car is THX 1138. The code for the safe is 1138. It is also one of the randomly chosen numbers for the Meteor Police in the NES and Commodore 64 versions.
