That's almost correct. Come on, folks, Jonster served it on a platter for you to steal, can't believe no one wants to try. I will be forced to give the point to Jonster if no one answers in the next 36 hours. :lol:

The guy with the guitar, who is NOT Clark, but whose name I don't remember, and a Grand Minimus and Baby Globoxes.

Not sure why people keep saying Clark :/

Plum with the steal... scores!

People probably say Clark because he is big, and also because it is Clark in the RR credits scene which looks like it evolved from this scene.
But how could it be Clark, when at that very moment he is stuck at the Technical Check-up, duh.
At least no one said 'Rayman, oh wait... :hehe:

BTW, I don't think that guy has an official name? Some call him 'Jeff'' because of the cheat code.
If you glitch through to the clearing (possible in the 3DS version at least) you see that he doesn't even have a face. :fou2:

ANYHOW.

Time for another bad question about characters.

Jumping, gliding, wall running, and punching!
(Since Jungle Run was the first Rayman game I ever played, this kind of stuff sticks with me)

While on the subject...
Question 33: Levels 4-8 (Contre Jour) and 5-9 (In the Undergrowth) in Rayman Jungle Run have something in common that other levels don't. What is it?

P.S. I hope someone else here has played the game, because...
RayGamer99 got 2 points in a row and should skip this question.

Jonster is on the brink of victory! Every round can be the last. Will the season end tonight? :o

Question 35: In Rayman Advance quite a few levels have been modified, usually to make the game easier. Mention one of each of the below:
  1. A level section where a platform has been extended to prevent falling into the void due to an error
  2. A level section where a cloud has been added for largely the same purpose
  3. A level section that has been outright removed

Gonna try a wild guess here!

1. Allegro Presto, phase 3, there's a number of areas where the sliding platforms are extended, but the section of tiny sliding platforms after the photographer is definitely a notable change.
2. Allegro Presto, phase 2, bouncing clouds are added to replace the disappearing clouds at the end!
3. Bongo Hills, phase 1! Why? Don't really know.

Okay then!

Short of #3 which is obvious, the other two are not the answers I was looking for, but although I feel they are a bit less accurate, they are still accurate enough.

For #2 - I was thinking about the cloud added under the ledge in the boss fight against Skops. However, replacing disappearing clouds with non-disappearing one still technically counts!

For #1 - I was thinking about the platform in Space Mama's Crater Part 2, which was extended to cover the entire void. Now, the tiny sliding platforms in Allegro Presto part 3 have certainly been extended in the GBA version, BUT: They were first extended in a similar manner in the PC version! Yes, the PC is easier than the PSX/Jaguar for that very reason. Maybe that's why yours truly always found Allegro Presto great for ting farming. Console players may not agree with me! Anyhow, since I did not say in the question that the difference must be between GBA and PC specifically, the answer is technically valid as well. :)

So "the council" :hehe: deliberated for a long time whether to accept this answer, since this would grant Jonster the victory. In the end, since within the span of 3 days - no one had offered any better answers (or any answers at all :oops2: ), the answer is accepted and TTQ season 142 is officially over!

Final Scoreboard
The Jonster - 10 points + Bonus - WINNER!!! +600 tings
RayGamer99 - 8 points + Bonus +225 tings
PluMGMK - 7 points +75 tings
Greengoop - 3 points
Hunchman801 - 3 points
lyndo64 - 2 points
lumgum - 1 point
Magelin - 1 point

Thank you everyone who played. Big kudos to RayGamer99 - a newcomer to the quiz with a very impressive performance!

Tings have been distributed to the first three places, according to the rules.

According to custom: The Jonster - do you agree to host the next season?

I knew my Rayman Advance memory would pay off!!!

I'm down for hosting this time, since it gives me more of a compelling reason to finally go back and completing Rayman games after not doing so for the longest time (yup like 40 Rayman 3 dolphin files to go......and others :P )

It took me time to realise this was what you were looking for. Unfortunately, it was right after I had already answered. And yeah I definitely didn't remember the Cave of Skops one. :oops2:

Congrats Jonster! If there's one thing this quiz has taught me, it's that I need to play the handheld and mobile games more :oops2:

To be fair, that depends entirely on the quizmaster. I decided to focus on handheld and mobile this time, which I announced in advance. :wink:
