Featured Hoaxes

What's this section about?
Basically, this is a page to display some of, what I thought, were more noteworthy hoaxes submitted to myself. A sort of "Top Ten" if you will (although the number varies ^_^).

Who's eligable?
Anyone who's every submitted a hoax, that includes myself. However, I realize I am obviously favored a little toward myself, so I'll keep selections to a minimum. I won't use this section to 'advertise' my latest hoax.

Why didn't you pick my hoax(es)?
Sorry, I like most of the hoaxes here, but it would be pointless just to relist them all. These are a select few I really enjoyed, but remember, it's solely my opinion, I'm not saying a hoax is bad just because I didn't pick it.

And now, on with the list! This edition will be special, 42 hoaxes, if my count is correct, because I'll be covering all of the old hoaxes as well. This section will be split up into ten hoaxes a page.

Didn't happen ingame, but should've.
Author: WheezerxDate: 4/27/99
Why it won:
There's a scene in the ending of Sonic CD that doesn't happen anywhere ingame (okay, there are a lot of scenes like that, but you get the picture. ;>) Wheezerx recreated one of those scenes, the platform destruction in Wacky Workbench, and did a pretty good job of it.
Network play! Maybe Sonic Jam and the Netlink had something to do with this...
Author: WheezerxDate: 4/23/99
Why it won:
A special edition of Sonic & Knuckles Collection for Windows 95? The three player special stage works well, especially with the choice of sprites. More "technical" than most of Wheezerx's hoaxes, but nonetheless great.
Fast Version
Slow Version
Author: Kulock's SpriteKulockDate: 4/17/99
Why it won:
(I suggest the slow version. The fast version is just in case your computer's odd about aniGIFs.) Inspired by the Simon Wai hoax featured earlier (reading this list chronologically), an aniGIF encompassing a lot of work. But I think it was worth it, don't you? Sonic and Tails witness a spectacle in Sonic 2's Hidden Palace Zone as the emeralds race from Sonic's hand, and disappear in a flash. As they're confused, a beam shoots up from the Master Emerald, causing Sonic to go Super. ^_^ I recolored several Sonic 1 and Sonic CD sprites for this hoax so they wouldn't make Sonic's colors flicker back and forth.
AsurNiGHTS!
Author: RlanDate: 4/14/99
Why it won:
From a hoaxer that didn't submit much past the first hoax, a shame looking at the quality. In this one, NiGHTS gets a new costume ala Sonic 2's Ashura.

Author: Bo BaylesDate: 4/13/99
Why it won:
Bo knocked me out of my seat when he sent this one: a great hoax of NiGHTS playable in Sonic R (even an icon). He was a little bothered that JPG compression gave NiGHTS a small blue aura around him. Would you have even noticed it if I hadn't said anything? Needless to say: great hoax (bet you're getting sick of that phrase).
C'mon, it's time for the pink hedgehog to trash some bots! ^_^
Author: Knux5's SpriteKnux5Date: 4/3/99
Why it won:
One of three hoaxes by Knux5 of Amy in Sonic 2. Currently the best one, Knux5 even gives her a hammer to take out Silver Sonic in the Death Egg. A fun pic, great job.
The better of the two...
Author: Knux5's SpriteKnux5Date: 4/1/99
Why it won:
Actually this one is more of a retouched version of Knux5's GenocideCity3.gif, but this version was a bit better, so I decided to cite this out of the two. KnuxFive dumps the ugly (sorry, but they were ;]) environs of his previous Genocide City mock-up, and takes on a much more impressive style, adn to top it off refits it to resemble a Sonic CD level, complete with Amy. Very good job.
Whoo, this one's complicated...
Author: Knux5's SpriteKnux5Date: 3/28/99
Why it won:
The other Team Play one I decided to feature, an excellent hoax compounding: Eggrobo and Hyper Mecha Sonic in Team Play (complete with cascading made-up icons), a finished Wood Zone, a Beta lamppost, and a final Buzzbomber. Complicated, but impressive.
Tails, stop munching on Knuckles' hand!
Author: Knux5's SpriteKnux5Date: 3/26/99
Why it won:
I've always thought Knux5's "Team Play" serious was a good idea, and here is one of the two hoaxes of that type being featured here. ^_^ Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles all cooperate to beat Star Light Zone. Maybe this is a lost feature of Sonic Jam. ;> Also note the cascading icon.
Amidst all the layer swapping, I almost forgot environment hoaxes could be... interesting. o_o
Author: Andy's SpriteAndy V'nerDate: 3/26/99
Why it won:
Andy tells me this was inspired by Sonic Chaos' "Mecha Green Hill" zone. So he tried out a hoax of if the Zone Roboticizor had attacked Emerald Hill of S2. It was probably a lot of work, but he came out with a spectacular hoax. All of the colors work together well, and look as if they were almost predesigned that way. For good measure, he threw in a beta enemy, off to the left. Spectacular hoax, if I may say so. ^_^
