Hacker Proposes Using Bejeweled
Bernie Peng found a unique way to propose to his girlfriend, he hacked Bejeweled so a ring and a marriage proposal would show up on the screen when she reached a certain score. PopCap Games, the company that makes Bejeweled, filed charges against the man and had him arrested. Just kidding. This was PopCap’s response:
"Most video game companies would frown on people manipulating their games," said Garth Chouteau, a spokesman for PopCap. "But it won him a woman. As a bunch of geeks, we have to say, 'Bernie, hats off to you.' The company is also supplying copies of "Bejeweled" to hand out as favors to the wedding guests.
