Hmm? How can you call yourself a newbie when you registered over a year ago? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Anyway, I'll be sending in my answers by tomorrow. I'm too tired to think clearly now. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

THE FIRST CROP OF ANSWERS:

Kaltia: Chinchilla
Ar-Cunin: Illasera
SpongeBobTheDestroyer: Sarevok
Raistlin Majere: Sarevok
Galadriel: Sarevok
Tancred: Yaga-Shura
Dundee Slaytern: Yaga-Shura
Alson: Sendai

Plenty of Sarevoks this time around....a nice change, considering that there weren't any after the first Quiz. Alson, you were only one point away from being an Imoen, but I don't know if telling you that will please you or just irritate you. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Alson said, in reference to the Underwater City question:

Would have been tougher if we were to actually spell the names.

Now, people, I may be cruel, but there's no way that I'm THAT cruel.

A few people were worried about their answer to #18, the "There's a WHAT in their chicken" quest. Don't fret, you don't have to know the person's name: A clear indication of where they are is enough to prove that you're talking about the right person.

On the negative side of the balance, though: I noticed a few people were hurting their scores by listing too many quests in their response to #17 (the Reputation quests). I warned of this in my opening post: Listing wrong answers can cost you points.

Back on the positive side: 2 people have answered the ToB Extra Credit question with different work of literature than the one that would fit the most correct answer. This different work is, in fact, from the 19th Century, but only just barely, and from an author who was very much American, not European. Still, though, there is a reference to it in ToB (not as strong as the reference to the "correct" answer, but there nonetheless), so they did recieve partial credit.

Dundee: Take a chill pill after answering quizzes like this, OK?

You weren't kidding. That's okay, chinchilla's are cute.

[Galadriel]

[Seraph]

Six, what exactly are you looking for when you say "explain"?

In particular number 8.

The latter. [img]tongue.gif[/img] Just kidding... Sendai is just fine. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Now, people, I may be cruel, but there's no way that I'm THAT cruel. [/QUOTE]LOL! I find Dragons names tougher to spell, though. Placing the apostrophes in the right places is nearly impossible, especially for a non-native-english-speaker like me.

Phew... /wipes sweat

That would be me, i assume.
