The *FOURTH* edition of the Great, Big, Pain-in-the-Butt, Shadows-of-Amn Trivia Quiz!

[Tancred]

Wheee, Sendai! My average score remains unchanged at 50%ish. Oh how that holds for the rest of my life. Ahem!

[Sir Exxon]

Illasera was pretty much what I expected. Maybe this means it's time for me to get back to BG2, as my usual score is Yaga-Shura. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Did you get my e-mail pcgiant? Sent it almost 24 hours ago, I know hotmail is prone to lose a letter every once in a while :/

I did pretty bad, right?
I ahven't played this game for AGES, a couple of mods screwed it up, but I'm trying to get it working again, so I can't remember half the stuff.

I keep hearing that people find this test so much harder than the last one. This time around I actually managed to get something on paper

DOH! That's mine. Yeesh. The GBPitBSoATQ part 4 just hasn't been a good thread for me.

Now, now, children, play NICE! My ego is not yet so fragile that playfully calling me a bastard will send me into a weeping fit of despondency. Even if somebody sent me an honest-to-god, intended-to-anger, out-and-out flame, I am quite capable of handling it on my own, thank you. It is quite safe to speak up again, ryaldin. All is forgiven (what little there was to forgive).

Sorry for any wrongs caused, real or imagined. My only pretext was that of humor, and a slight grogginess lingering on the edge of the sub-conscious, whispering in my ear,"That pic wasn't from the temple district, it was the government district. Look at the ground, the ground you fool!"

EDIT:ah the complexities of quotes

Of course it is....IF you happen to know the answer.

what i really had problems with...was the stuff from bg1...I've never played it, so since some of the questions, i think used stuff from bg1, i simply couldn't answer them...

That's odd.....rereading all of the questions, I can't find a single one that gives any hint of BG1-ish information. Can you tell me which ones you thought those were?

That's actually not possible, as the human brain has no sensory nerve endings. Just a tidbit of NON-BG trivia for you all. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yes, you certainly do, and I don't blame them. This Quiz has some real doozies in it, such as the Genie, Cowled Wizard, and algebra questions. pcgiant and I noticed this during development, and so stuck in some easier ones (like the Name That Corpse game) to balance things out a bit.

Originally posted by ryaldin: ....My only pretext was that of humor, and a slight grogginess lingering on the edge of the sub-conscious, whispering in my ear, "Look at the ground, the ground you fool!"

Ah, yes, I personally feel we should listen to those voices more often. The little Gnome in my skull is better at math than I am: I was sitting in a Physics class one day, mentally priding myself at knowing the value of pi to more digits than most college students, but not far enough to be labeled a nerd. "Oh, pi?" I said to myself. "That's easy, it's 3.14159."

And then a little voice inside my head said, "....2654."

Surprised at this interruption, I rebuked, "That's nonsense. pi equals 3.14159."

"2654," the voice replied.

"All right," I said, "we'll soon settle this." Taking out my calculator, I punched in:
pi = [ ENTER ]
3.141592654 sh*t.


Getting back on topic now.......
I have put the 1st batch of results on the Quiz page itself, so everybody who looks at the Quiz gets to laugh and point at your pathetic scores. And pcgiant, when you add the next batch of results to the ranking, could you post those in order, according to score (ascending or descending, I don't care), so those who wish to argue over who is the better Gromnir Il-Khan may do so?

[Lord]

SWEET! Gromnir Il-Kahn! [img]tongue.gif[/img] . Well, not completely horrible for my first attempt at one of Six's trivias [img]tongue.gif[/img]

[Maj]

Yeah I am not a Chinchilla! I was sure I would be, that quiz was hard! I haven't taken any of your others because I hadn't finished BG2 untill recently.
