We've already had this happen once today and yesterday so it would be nice if the rules were read. In fact MJ4H asked for a clarification to make sure just a few posts ago so it should be crystal clear now. Your first day all you can guess is a freebie. Also, if you make more than one guess a day, they are nullified. So, while ThunderingHERD actually did get both the freebie and gold question right. However, in a somewhat punitive "dammit, not only do I have to play rules lawyer I also have to explain the gold answer in the same post" ruling, the two games are taken off the board so no one else can guess (since it'd just be cherry picking) but ThunderingHERD will still have to get a freebie correct some day in the future before doing real ones.

Essentially, what ThunderingHERD said was correct about the distinction between the two games and what TazFTW said was the key. Essentially, after Tyson starts losing (I can't recall if it's before or after the beating accusations that get him sent to jail), Nintendo remakes the game. They take Tyson out and replace him with "Mr Dream", the fighter shown there. He has the same characteristics of Mike Tyson except looks different.
