I disagree.

All that it did was save me the time it takes to type URL's and search a page (which I am thankful for).
You could be worried that the sponsors aren't getting the attention they deserve by doing this, but I doubt it.
Or you just might not want it to be that easy, so your chances of winning are a little better. Which is a bit selfish IMO.

Please keep posting the answers if you got them.
And if you don't think they should be here don't look at them.
Not trying to be a dick, that's just my opinion.

 		So by typing in the keywords that somebody else found for you the game no longer "sucks" !?

Well no actually we come here to play games, not to type in what somebody else wrote in order to win prizes while being lazy. In that case you could just skip playing ARGs and wait for the final page link to be posted. For maximum effect you should then boast about how you solved it.

Click on "Previous clues" they are all there.

 		honestly the answers are posted all over the freaking place, this is the same argument that came up over the vanishingpoint game and working together makes the game much more fun. Anyone who wants to find the answers without much effort can. Whether i post them or not.

 		I had the hardest time with one of the answers today, I could have sworn I saw the word with the special "e", typed it in, and kept telling me "wrong answer". Maybe all the "e"'s look the same when you should be sleeping!!

The answers do get deleted over at the xbox forum- and for a good reason.
How exactly is you posting all the answers "working together" ? I am not talking about somebody having problems finding 1 or 2 clues despite searching that's where people actually can work together as opposed to simply cheating.

 		I'm sorry, but seriously, WGAF?
If you don't like the answers given to you, don't take them.
And if you"re still bitching about them being there, you're doing so only because you think it's unfair that people are lessening your chances of winning without doing the "work". Well I'm Crying or Very sad for you. Really.

This isn't a game. This is "look at the sponsors page and get entered into a chance to win something".
If you want to play how you're supposed to, that's cool, avoid the spoilers. But don't try to force your ideas about what's right and wrong on the rest of us.
It's not that big of a deal.

31. TRY THE VIDEO VIEW AT DEW.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Go to http://www.mountaindew.com/ click on Video then on the thing that comes up in the middle click on Misc.

32. GO BACK TO OLD SCHOOL FOR XBOX GAMING THE HARDCORE WAY.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Go to http://www.xbox.com/ at the top search for [ old school hardcore way ] click on the second result in the list. Read the first two paragraphs very carefully.

33. GET A NEW CADILLAC AT XBOX LIVE PGR3.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Go to http://www.xbox.com/ at the top search for [ new Cadillac pgr3 ] click on the first result in the list. Read the first two paragraphs very carefully.

34. JAM WITH EA SKATE MUSIC.

Go to http://www.ea.com/skate then click on features, then click on music. Scroll down and read carefully.

35. HIT THE CANDYSTAND GAME DEVELOPER SWEEPS FOR EXTRA INNINGS.
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Go to http://www.candystand.com/ on the right you will see where it says "Play for a chance to win prizes" below that you will see "Find out more ->" click on that arrow. Click on the third one down for "Game Designer Sweepstakes." Read the page that comes up.

Go to http://www.xbox.com/ search the phrase "DEVELOPER SPOTLIGHT FORZA MOTORSPORT 2" find the best match. I believe it's about the third one down. Click on that and read the page carefully.

38. Are you rEAdy for The Simpsons big super happy fun fun?
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Go to http://www.ea.com/simpsons/superhappy/ I didn't find a green X but it's pretty obvious who owns the copyright.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Go to http://www.beaches.com/ on the left click on "The All-Inclusive Vacation." When that page comes up, on the left click on "Waterparks." Read the page that comes up carefully.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Go to http://www.gamestop.com/ at the top click on [Xbox 360] then find Call of Duty 4 and click on 360 just under the title. Read the page carefully.

 		Is it just me or does anyone else hate navigating the Mountian Dew website? The way the boxes move around and sometimes block each other is just freaking annoying. It took me so long to find today's X.
