I went behind the curtain, sneaked a peek behind the scene and borrowed the list of GAs from there. Save me time digging through the trash.

That was a change of pace, which was fun.
Thanks, grez.

You're welcome! Happy you're digging it. Wow, seems like I just created this thing, but...less than 24 hours left!

I don't know if I'm doing something wrong but the new windows that open when I click on stuff are cut. I can't scroll down to leave a message or anything. I can copy/paste the address to open in a new tab but then it's double work ;)
I still appreciate all the work you and dys put into the game :)

Hmmm, weird. It's not a problem for me. Must be something browser-specific (probably in settings). What browser are you using in this case?

It's Firefox but it could be also my laptop being silly. Anyway, it's not a big deal, just wanted to mention it in case someone else had similar experience. You did a great job! :)

Ok, just curious...want to make things as compatible as possible. You probably saw the note about Edge...Articulate doesn't have a native client, they have some old flash-based one for Edge, and it doesn't work well for anything other than static slides. Just wondering if there's some general FF issue, too. Can you resize the windows? I can in Chrome, although mine already open to be large enough to show the entire page.
Also, have you tried a ctrl-click? That's supposed to open via a new tab, and I'm wondering if that helps in your case. :)

- I tried ctrl+click but it seems to only work for Chrome?
- Hahahaha! Resizing helps :P The scrolling shows on the side and I can get to the comment section. I don't know why I thought about copying the address but not to double click the title bar. Thank! :D

No problem, glad to help. And good to know about the ctrl-click in FF. I really wish all of these browser devs would agree to support the exact same behavior via html5 and not have these proprietary browser-level functions that devs creating browser apps have to take into account. Isn't this what everyone complained about in old versions of IE? FF and Chrome said that they were always going to follow standards, and now they're just doing what MS did back in the late 90s. What's funny is that MS follows HTML5 standards more closely in Edge than anyone else does (except maybe Opera). 😅 They've somehow become the good guys of open standards, although no one seems to realize it. lol

When you lose trust once, it's not easy to regain it I guess :)

That's right, people! There is a brand new Trash Tornado on the horizon, and it's headed RIGHT TOWARD YOU! Brace yourself for impact and get ready to dig through the swirling morass of junk!
You'll navigate this mess via a slide deck (originally created in Powerpoint and converted to Articulate) where you click on objects of interest to discover the GAs. There are all kinds of super-fun chaos in here, and the tornado and its aftermath feature all sorts of unexpected characters, including (but not limited to): Deadpool, Putin, Trump, The Kool-Aid Guy, Elton John, goats, 'possums, Kanye West's disembodied head, Lisa Simpson, W., Harry Potter, UFOs, the Mad Maxmobile, and a bucket of KFC! If it looks out of place, be sure to click on it! The beginning will be obvious, but things get a bit...messy toward the end.
Everyone who has given at least something (level 1+) is welcome to pick through the trash. There are 86 GAs (164 keys) throughout the tornado for you to discover. Also, hidden among these bits are 12 additional GAs (so make that 176 keys) that are either above-average-quality bundled games or the ever-so-rare non-bundled games (5 of these)! Now you'll need to be level 3 to access these, but hey, that's still a pretty low bar, so no complaining if you don't qualify. You can make level 3 in 48 hours with a tiny amount of work. Give to live, baby, give to live. 😉
Ok, enough proselytizing...go face the tornado and DIG THROUGH THE TRASH!
Good luck!
P.S. The tornado runs through October 16th in the evening (Central US time)
A thousand, thousand thank-yous to Dys, who spent personal time helping me get this into Articulate (because Dys has a subscription 😁). Doing so did degrade the graphic quality from compression, but allowed us to present this in a way that prevents cheating via extracting all of the URLs (this happened during the first Junk Drawer Extravaganza™). Also, please stick with Firefox or Chrome for this event...we've found issues with the Articulate client and links in Edge (which is too bad, because I really like Edge). Anyway, Dys probably spent a good hour or two of time helping convert, test, convert, test...and finally deploy this thing. So everyone send some love Dys' way, because it's well-deserved.
