/svidya/ is a strict /v/ alternative for moderated vidya discussion. This Board wasn't intended to replace /v/ but to aid Anon's in having vidya discussions with zero shitposters. Thanks for adding /svidya/ to /v/'s recommended boards, Mark.

From Wikipedia:
>"Years after the contest, the remaining three prizes (the crown, philosopher's stone, and sword) were discovered to have been in the possession of Jack Tramiel, the founder of Commodore International who purchased the remnants of Atari after the video game crash and his ouster from Commodore. [ http://www.atarihq.com/2678/swordqst.html ] Tramiel died in 2012, and no further word on the fate of the three prizes has been relayed."

Was Swordquest a good idea to begin with?
Did any of you try to participate in one of the contests?
Where would you think the prizes would be now?
Discuss.

This would be a sick adventure hook actually.

Sounds like a neat idea.
Nope.
The one that was given was melted and sold by what i recall, the other three were in ownership of that one guy who bought the atari.
Beyond that i got no idea. Probably he gave them away in his will to his next of kin or something or maybe he sold them onward so he could give the money away in his will or something.
