The *THIRD* Edition of the Great, Big, Pain-in-the-Butt, Shadows-of-Amn Trivia Quiz! - Page 2

Imoen?! That's a two rank leap from last time! Now that made me happy

Off-topic, is it just me, or have the IW forums been down almost the entire day?

All right, how many of them red-zinger questions did I flub? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

And phooey on the "find the one that doesn't match" questions. I think my eyes were glazing over on the last few. Those people were in my game? I guess I was a little too concerned with killing them to write down their names... [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Great job, pcgiant!

Uhhhh.... Yes, it is! I apologise, Olorin. And I thought I double-checked all the names...

Well done, everyone! We're getting some good results! Keep me busy, guys.

Whoa! That was fun. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I also found this one to be better than the 2nd (I wasn't around when the 1st was posted). The screenshots certainly do add quite a bit of flavor, the spell-matching was interesting (albeit perhaps somewhat too easy... more obscure spells abound

), and the "odd man out" questions were great fun.

Admittedly, the last screenshot drove me crazy (it's in SoA!?), and I didn't even try the bonus question.

Still, I think I did well. Hopefully. [img]smile.gif[/img] Great job, guys!

Well done to SoS and PCGiant for that quiz. I found it easier than the last one, but for some reason I had a feeling I would score less. Looks like I've stayed about the same though - Imoen (would have loved to get to Balthazar (how close was I?

). I found some of the questions pretty mind boggling. The cursed item one had me practically ripping hair out (I could only name a few items). I think I did well on the summoning items question though. The pics were fun, but very difficult.

I don't think I'll be retaining my title this time though! I'm sure Alson or another BG2 great can get higher than Imoen.

BTW, PCGiant, how about posting our numerical scores, so we can all see how close off the next rank we were

Looking forward to quiz number 4 now. We should try and get one a month done

EDIT: New avatar Alson!

Jim, I see you floating around! Come and take the quiz!

I would have done it sooner, but like Rataxes pointed out, the board was down for most of Friday...

Good job. I think I might have scored an Ilasera [img]smile.gif[/img] The last picture question almost had me thinking that it ws in Yaga-Shura's lair, but then I remembered that it was only SoA... Taht was tough.

Sir Exxon · 05-10-2003, 12:57 PM

Very nice work, both of you. [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

Not quite sure how I did. I got a Yaga-Shura on the last one, very much doubt that I'll get that now as well. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

What bugged me about the pictures is I'd been to all of them lots...I just forgot where they were

Alson: Draconis

Well done everyone, we had some good results this round. Mucho kudos to Alson, who attained the rank of Draconis, thereby stealing my record of the highest score in any of the quizzes [img]graemlins/finger.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img] You got every single spell matching and odd man out question correct, too! Great result from Raistlin Majere as well. Congratulations to everyone else, too!

I'm beginning to notice a few trends with the quiz so far, and only ONE person has attempted the bonus question! Come on guys, if you think that question is hard, you should've seen the ones we didn't use! [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Well done everyone. I'm proud of you guys!

Cheers, pcgiant.

I'll add people's numerical scores as long as they don't mind [img]tongue.gif[/img] Everyone agree?
Jim, you got 78 points.
