I've finally got my new computer, so I am making the much anticipated, critically acclaimed, top 10 bestseller by the New York Times IWD2 quiz chapter 1!

Same rules as last time: PM me all answers, don't post them here. The first section is worth 1 pt each, then 2, then 3, and the bonus is awarded 5 for the best, 4 next, and down giving the first five people who get the bonus 5,4,3,2,1 points respectively.

Also, I am generous with your bonus points. Tell me a mistake I made, a secret I missed, or others to get extra points. It pays to write a lot!

I will be accepting PMs through Friday.

Without further ado, lets get quizin!

Sent answers.

Likewise sent answers, although I doubt I'll win with BoB in the field.

Why, thank you for that kind gesture of respect [img]smile.gif[/img]

You won't win, but being down by one is pretty darn good!

Bozos of Bones: 28
Aerich: 27

In fact, the decider was problem 2)1 where Aerich didn't know where to find the items that appear later in the game. BoB, you are slipping!

Actually, I congratulate Aerich, for he truly has the same points as I do. He came in second, and recieved only 4 bonus points, whereas I recieved 5.
My hat off to you, fellow Icewind Dale loremaster.*bows*

Thank ye kindly, gennulmen.

I'll have to pick up my gaming pace a bit; I'm only in Ch 2 at the moment. I wouldn't want the next couple of quizzes to pass me by. ;)

Can you leave the quiz on till the weekend? I'm real busy right now and will try and send you answers Friday but might not get the time till Saturday.

Ok, I'll extend this to Sunday.

PMed you the answers...
