I'll be starting the next BG1 trivia soon, and I had a different idea for this one. Do you guys want it to be like the last one (all about BG1) or do you want this one to only be about the city of Baldur's Gate? By that, I mean questions like, 'Which quest requires you to get an amulet and a dead body?' type of question.

I suppose for the variation you could do one just on the city, although you could maybe add in 10 questions or so at the end of classic BG1 things outside the city :D

Ugh, I can only imagine how difficult that would be. The damn city is confusing enough as it is...-

As long as you don't expect us to memorize every citizen of Baldur's Gate (like the miner question on your last quiz) I should be fine. ;)

You mean the one about Mulahey and Tazok? You shouldn't have gotten that one wrong: they are both 'main' characters in the plot, and Mulahey's name pops up in a few letters. Tazok, well, I don't see how you could forget Tazok. You can meet him in the Bandit Camp, plus you fight him later on too, so I don't see what was so difficult about that question ;) .

It was actually Legolas (the fellow who scored the highest on your BG1 Quiz, Pirengle) who asked the imfamous "miner" question, which I quote below:

Quote:

1) Below are 16 descriptions and 16 names of miners you'll find in the game. Connect the right names to the descriptions, for 1 point each.
EXAMPLE: Some miner who wants to set his co-workers free: Rill

a) This miner was actually a bard once:
b) This miner thinks there's a dragon in the mines:
c) This miner wants to have his dagger back:
d) This miner is the only sober (and the most realistic) one around:
e) This miner is mercilessly butchered:
f) A miner who welcomes you, and brings you to his friend:
g) A miner who actually enjoys hitting rocks with his pick:
h) A miner who informs you of the presence of a plug:
i) A miner who asks you to return a dagger to another miner:
j) A miner who happens to be claustrophobic:
k) The miner who wants to report bad behaviour to the guards:
l) The miner who is seeing ghosts:
m) The miner who warns about adventurers going down, but not coming up again:
n) The miner whom you can tell to flee to safety:
o) The miner who owes his life to some now-deceased guards:
Miners: Andarsson Beldin Bob Canticle Cory Dilak Dink Faber Gord Kylee Lesley Marvin Phaersis Rill Ruffie Tipian

2) There is a 17th 'special' miner, the one who helps you remove the plug in the Cloakwood mines. 3 points for his name.

</font>[/QUOTE]Damn, that one's crazy. I can only name about half of them, and I can't even place the other half.

Just started the next BG1 trivia on the city of Baldur's Gate. Don't expect it too soon though; I don't want to rush anything (I need good questions)
