Trivia contest!!

Let's schedule a date for us all to come to the chatroom and play a trivia game! K-Statefry will be quizzing us about a wide range of topics, from Tamagotchi to movies, games, and other pop culture and factoids! I will be your friendly referee. Whoever gets the most correct answers will receive a fabulous trophy icon for their signature, designed specially for this event by Tigerlily!

This event will be taking place sometime after June 9, to accomodate K-Statefry's busy schedule.

So when would everyone like to hold this event? I will draw up a calendar and cross off dates that people are not available. Times are in Eastern time, so that I can keep it straight in my head - sorry! This page will convert any time for you to any time zone.

  • Monday, June 11 6 PM and later
  • Wednesday, June 13 9:30 PM and later
  • Thursday, June 14 6 PM and later
  • Friday June 15 (anytime)
  • Saturday June 16 8 PM and later
  • Tuesday June 19 4 PM and later
  • Wednesday June 20 4 PM-7:30 PM, or 9:30 PM and later
  • Wednesday June 27 4 PM-7:30 PM, or 9:30 PM and later
  • Thursday June 28 4 PM and later
  • Friday June 29 (anytime)
  • Saturday June 30 7:30 PM and later

If you would like to participate, please write back and say when of the above times you are not available? This way we can narrow down the days and times, and eventually run a vote on a smaller collection of days and times. Sound good?

Credit to K-Statefry for coming up with this great idea!

I think this could really be alot of fun, Elana and I already plan on being there, sun up or sun down, so It would really be fun if a bunch of you guys come.

Just as a note, this will be simple trivia about movies/games/tamas.

Don't think we're going to quiz you about quantum physics or something.

Trivia chat lasted about an hour tonight, and we had a bigger turnout than I expected from the amount of response on the thread! Dennis had the great idea of posting the scores here at the end of the game, so here they are.

The game had to be cut short because people had to go to bed/dinner/the movies, so we didn't get through that many questions. But everyone had fun so we will definitely be holding another trivia event sometime soon!

In third place: i_luv_tamas, with 2 points!
In second place: Dennis (ginjirotchi), with 3 points!
And the winner is:
Priestess of Syrinx, with 5.5 points!

Tigerlily will be whipping up a lovely trophy icon for Priestess of Syrinx to commemorate her win, so she can put it in her signature here if she so desires. Congratulations! Grin

Congrats to the winners!

I'm sorry we didn't make it, we totally planned on it. We popped in a movie, had dinner and we didn't realize the time until a few minutes ago.

Glad you pulled off a successful event, I look forward to attending the next Smiley

Wait - how did I manage to win, when I was away for most of the time?
That's pretty wicked, anyway. I'll definitely add the image to my sig.

(The movie I saw was awesome, too, by the way Azn)

I want to sincerely apologize for, once again, missing the event.
I knew whattime I had to be here, I was just out of town and my brother couldn't get my back anywhere near in time to participate(I got back around 10 minutes ago, 10:30pm)

Thanks a ton, Elana, for basically saving this event, I don't know what I would do without you.

I hope you guys still had fun.
