Youtuber with a smiling scarecrow avatar who did reviews of terrible stuff.

I remember a youtube channel with the avatar of a smiling scarecrow or jackolantern, the presenter had a british accent, and was a reviewer of some sort, he was comedic and mostly presented low quality content to make fun of it.

I can remember the avatar clear as day, but not the name associated with it.

Website that lets you explore video game maps in realtime?

I just found this website like a few weeks ago, and I thought I bookmarked it, but I DIDN'T! It lets you look at SO MANY different video game worlds in realtime. So far as even letting you get free reign in Wind Wakers sea with all islands loaded. Very much like Boundary Break on youtube.

Anyone have any idea?

Website that you type in two celebrity names and it shows what the connections are between said celebrities.

I found this site a long time ago but never bookmarked it, it was a site that you could type in two celebrity names and it showed what the connections are between said celebrities. For example celebrity(a) and (b) are connected when (a) started in movie(c) and the director of movie(c) also directed movie(d) that stared celebrity(b).

[Reddit post I saw today] help me find a funny picture about anime

I saw this post earlier. It was a jpeg. Maybe a screencap of a tumblr post that laid out a hypothetical dialog of anime guys talking about their balls the same way girls in anime seem to talk about their boobies. I want to show my wife who I think would find it hilarious and theres no way I can describe it without ruining the joke. Thanks!

[Game]Its a puzzle game where you have to solve a piece, and then another piece, and each one you solve becomes another piece to the bigger puzzle.

I know I found it on Imgur probably on a website list and I am gonna pour over my favorites later. But yeah. It was a puzzle game online where you would piece together what seemed like just a random coloring and then once completed, it would zoom out to the larger puzzle and the piece you just finished. You would then select a new piece to work on, and once completed, would try to fit it onto the bigger puzzle again. Lather rinse repeat.

I played it in December during Finals week for some procrastination. And I need it again for this finals week.

[Shopping] It's a long shot but please help!

Hey guys, so I'm looking for a website I found on Reddit a few years back now. It had a list of nigh on every video game created for consoles with how much they cost.

It was a very basic site, but you could search by console, etc and it had games going back as far as the SNES etc.

This sub seems pretty dead but there are 160 subs so hopefully someone will see this!If you can't help, please upvote for visibility!

[Game] Abandoned factory(?) point-and-click exploration horror game

I played this game one time years ago and have never been able to find it since. I believe it took place in an abandoned factory, mostly still photographs with some editing and animation, very similar to http://www.99rooms.com/, but much darker and scarier. I remember towards the end a room with a big red door or curtain, and a creepy figure came out of it. I may be confusing it a bit with 99Rooms but it was definitely a different game. It's not the House games either, but it's in the same kind of vein. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

Law Website Explaining Popular Court Cases

It's title was something religious, almost like "White Pulpit" or something. The logo was a white christian type hat. I found the website when I was linked to it from a poster describing why Chris Kyle was guilty of lying about punching Jesse Ventura. The website author gave a very objective, educated, legal explanation of the case. The rule of the site, was explaining to the layman, the legal reasoning behind popular media court cases (the hot coffee mcdonalds woman is on this site, where the author explains why she was in the right.

Any help finding this website is appreciated.

Edit: Found it: popehat.com Don't know how to add flair. Been clicking the flair button.

[Heavy Metal News and Releases] Constantly updated site showing new releases by rather unknown death metal and metalcore bands.

The site usually has the new albums listed with a large picture of the album artwork and a small description on the side. Usually the album art is that of grindcore bands. New albums come out and the older get bumped down. If I remember correctly the background was mostly black (or all black), and I think the font they used was either red or white.

I think I originally found the site through a link in an article about band logos or album art if that helps at all.

I think this one was on the site at one point, but I'm not 100% sure as I can't recall any bands I saw on it around 2008 or 2009. http://www.metal-archives.com/images/1/7/5/0/175048.jpg

I'd really like to find the site as I want to expand my metal library some more.

EDITL I want to be clear that it is not metalacrchives.com or metallibrary.ru

An art/tech/sciency type discovery site that im pretty sure had the word "project" in the site name

Its an article type site, where you can find stories related to art, innovation, tech, science, etc. I'm fairly sure it was a two word website name with "project" being the second word. At the time (about 6 months ago) the site had a white, pearly kind of interface i think. Any help would be great! !

[Shopping] Salem, MA jewelry company?

One item I remember is a pendant with a vintage photo of a child in a dunce cap with the word "evil" superimposed over her. The description was along the lines of, "the evil child likes to play with spirits and pretend she can fly with them".

I used to love going there but I no longer remember what it was called.

I was looking at new zealand at the time they also had a cycling holidays. most of the holiday plans were between 7-15 days. the website looked very different each option was written in a different font (adventure, family and all). there was no filter on top or on the side. they were on the whole screen.

It was a Japanese site with a plain white background with 12 little brown chests and when you clicked on those chests it would start a game. The goal was to get a star on every game.

[Art Games] A site with lots of small artistic 'mini games'.

I thought it might have been called 'Orosion' or something similar. It featured a number of pretty little games, artistic and slow moving, with relaxing pastel colours.

[Links] A .cz site that seemed to just be recent posts from reddit but always managed to only list the actually good stuff

It sounds useless when I write it down, but I remember just feeling like someone else had done all the reddit legwork for me! It was updated regularly so may have been automated and it had been going for some time judging by the archive. The theme was shades of blue.

Welcome to /r/clickofmytongue!

Welcome one and all to this new subreddit!

First off, the name might sound a touch weird - it is a homage to the fantastic subreddit, /r/tipofmytongue. That's a sub that is definitely worth checking out for yourself.

As you may have figured out by this point, this sub has been created specifically to offer a dedicated place for you to find those long lost websites you remember so fondly, but can't for the life of you think of the name. The idea is that you post what you remember of the site (what the site does, how the name sounded, what it looked like - anything) and one of our already growing community will hopefully dive in to save the day!

Currently, there aren't too many rules (please see the sidebar for how it works), but the aim is to create a friendly band of redditors who can help you find that site.

If you're pretty good at remembering things and somewhat of a Google ninja, you can use this sub as a way to flex your typey-searchy muscles and treat each request as a little detective case.

Once there is a good amount of content washing through, it seems appropriate to start curating a list of the best rediscoveries that have been made. At such a time, this list will be added to the sidebar.

That's about it for now, so please feel free to get stuck in and start posting some queries, or helping others find those URLs. As this is a very young sub, the more posts, the better - every post, comment or upvote is appreciated!

Happy hunting!

[Gaming] An ASCII-looking 'RPG' game that involves candy.

A friend of mine was obsessed with this for a while. It gives you rudimentary choices but primarily counts up lollipops while you idle on the site. Lollipops can be exchanged for chocolate bars which are worth more. You can spend certain things on power ups (that make your lollipops increase faster, etc.).

[Android Apps] A site that lists Android apps which have no freemium content or in-app purchases.

I remember it was called something like 'Android playing fair' and was created by a redditor. It would list apps that were free or had a reasonable one-off purchase fee.
