Title: Trivia Tournament Round 2
Post by: Nick22 on February 15, 2005, 04:22:20 PM: Ok Arvens I'll go with your proposal. The tournament Will start over(sorry Threehorn).

Here's how the game will now go.

I Will direct a question to one of you(say Littlefoot). He will then get 24 hours to answer and will be the only one allowed to answer in that time. If he gets it right he gets 10 points. If not he gets a 'strike' and the question passes to the other person. That person will also gets 24 hours to answer. If he gets it right, Hev gets 5 points. If Not , he also gets a strike and I'll reveal the answer. If You miss three questions, you strike out and the game is over.

Littlefoot , since you are the higher seed, you get to go first. You are the only one who can answer within the next 24 hours. Here's your question. What Will Camaela Parker Bowles' title be when she marries Prince Charles in April?

Post by: Petrie on February 15, 2005, 05:50:32 PM: I know I'm full of suggestions, but I wouldn't randomly pick someone....set a list of who will go after who. ;) That would make it even more fair so the person knows when their turn will be up.

Post by: Mirumoto_Kenjiro on February 15, 2005, 06:31:45 PM: So we're starting the tourney over? The new set of rules sounds better, even with the fact that you don't have to pair anyone up.
Title: Trivia Tournament Round 2
Post by: Nick22 on February 15, 2005, 06:35:14 PM: Yes We Are Kenji. As we go along and people are eliminated, I may change some things.

Either way, I never liked hockey much so I'm not missing anything. :lol

Post by: Nick22 on February 17, 2005, 12:47:13 PM: Ok. What position did Franz Von Papen hold in Hilter's Government?
Nick
Title: Trivia Tournament Round 2
Post by: Malte279 on February 19, 2005, 04:08:23 AM: He was vice-chancelor until 1934 and later ambassador to Austria and finally to Turkey. Being acquited in the N¸rnberger trials he was convicted in another process but released prematurely. Later he became "Geheimk‰mmerer" (whatever that would be in English) to pope John XXIII.

Nick
Title: Trivia Tournament Round 2
Post by: Littlefoot1616 on February 22, 2005, 07:31:39 AM: Hmm...interesting. I'm pretty sure it was Braveheart he got Best Director for in '95. Well, that's the only Mel Gibson film I can think of that was made around that time.

Nick
Title: Trivia Tournament Round 2
Post by: Malte279 on March 04, 2005, 06:18:59 AM: All those islands had to be independent?
Title: Trivia Tournament Round 2
Post by: Nick22 on March 04, 2005, 09:34:04 AM: Yes. I Said 3 African island Coutries, But I guess I Didn't specify enough.
Nick
Title: Trivia Tournament Round 2
Post by: Malte279 on March 04, 2005, 05:22:16 PM: I guess it was clear enough. I'm out, simple is that. Don't worry, I don't care too much about it anyway.
Title: Trivia Tournament Round 2
Post by: Nick22 on March 04, 2005, 05:27:17 PM: That's only one strike Malte. You get three strikes and THEN you're eliminated. You're simply the first to miss that's all.
Nick
Title: Trivia Tournament Round 2
Post by: Littlefoot1616 on March 08, 2005, 09:59:19 PM: So...do I have to answer that last question or do I have another question since Malte has already partially answered that last one? Kinda think that would give me a bit of an unfair advantage coz that means I only have to give another one to pass...
Title: Trivia Tournament Round 2
Post by: Nick22 on March 09, 2005, 10:16:14 AM: JUst give me three different island countries Littlefoot.

Title: Trivia Tournament Round 2
Post by: Nick22 on April 18, 2005, 08:13:53 PM: Well you got it right. It's Malte's turn.
Title: Trivia Tournament Round 2
Post by: Malte279 on April 19, 2005, 12:16:18 PM: To tell you the truth, I don't really like this game. It is too one sided and too much like a competition to me, unlike the other games where the winner may put up the next question, nobody is "forced" to answer a question before even seeing it, and nobody is given points for right or wrong answers.
Title: Trivia Tournament Round 2
Post by: Nick22 on April 19, 2005, 12:22:52 PM: It's SUPPOSED to be a competition Malte, that's what a tournament is. This is a round-robin format in which people are given questions and are rewarded forcorrect answers.
Nick
Title: Trivia Tournament Round 2
Post by: Petrie on April 19, 2005, 08:49:51 PM: If Malte doesn't want to play, I don't see why he should be forced to, regardless of the format. :unsure:

Also, I think you can pull Nightwing from the mix....he hasn't been online and when he has he tells me how busy he is, so I'd drop him from the game.
Title: Trivia Tournament Round 2
Post by: Nick22 on April 20, 2005, 09:39:34 AM: Alright then. I'll drop Malte and nightwing. So that means its Threehorn's turn.
Nick
Title: Trivia Tournament Round 2
Post by: Nick22 on May 12, 2005, 09:29:00 AM: It's your turn Threehorn(Just a reminder)
