The rules are the same as in the OotS quiz

No boring counting questions, things like 'How many times does X appear', or 'How many of these are in the comic strip', or such. You can ask for a hint after 12 hours or if the thread is about to fall to the second page (don't let that happen!)
Please also check to make sure that a question actually has an answer before you post it.
No counting questions with more than 3 parts, except something general like the previous 'find 10 couples'.

It's specificly for Start of Darkness and Origin of the PC's, because you can't ask a question about that in the OotS quiz. You can't post a link, so answers have to be specific, and it has to be on the comic strips themselves (you can't ask something like what does Redcloak think about being an NPC, because that's in the preface)

I'll start: find a giant steak

In OotPCs Elan wears a costume of one when him and the paladin (i can't remember his name offhand and i don't have the books with me at the moment) are being chased by wolves

What phrase is said both to and by Roy in fighter's college?

@v i meant the grade-point average thing, he says it to the frat boys and a geek says it to him in the library. Thats the only one i could remember offhand, as i said earlier i don't have the books with me

You should require people to give a page number.

"...Separate water fountains..."
"There are separate fountains because you can't REACH the taller ones!"
"A likely excuse."

"A find like this might even be enough to pay the witch to remove the horrible curse that forces you to speak only in one-word exclamations."
"Finally!"

The only problem with this quiz is the smaller amount of source material. I'm going to refrain from answering two in a row.

No, Uncle Festy, that's a 'Stargate' reference. He asked for a Star Trek reference (though, truth be told, I can't think of one in either book).

I think the problem was that this question looked like it was going to be boring, but actually wasn't because the answer is
DR 50 bazillion/silver...no...bilver. SOD p85

I'm wondering if we need to have the page numbers in the answers. Some people might know the answers, but not have the books right to hand at the moment. I'd be willing to accept detailed answers without the page numbers.

Anyway, question: What are the Inter-Humanoid Council going to get?

Amy
2008-03-07, 11:40 PM
