The Trivia Trials
 
The Trivia Trials

Introduction

Welcome to the trivia trials, a place where knowing the base stat total of a tropius or the most populated region in Africa can be the difference between victory and defeat. It doesn't matter if you got a D in science class, or if you graduated from M.I.T, all you need is a good memory and loads of knowledge you usually would have no use for. Do you know your random facts? Well, join in! Who knows, you might just end up on top!

How to Play

Each day has it's own special topic and host who will post below with their question. If you think you know the answer to the question of that current
time, then post your answer quoting the question, and your level of certainty.
Here's an example:

Question: How many stars are in space?

My Reply: Um..... 1000000000000, and I'm just guessing here.
Or
My Reply: Oh, that is 1342666783579.9 stars and growing, I'm sure of it.

If you answer the most questions correctly over the four days of the competition, you get the first place emblem! The second place emblem is awarded to the runner-up, and everybody gets participation emblems.

Rules
The rules are actually really simple:

No searching on the interweb! The answer must come from you or one of your friends IRL who are watching you nerd out in the very same room.

No complaining! The more you whine, the less fun this whole thing becomes, so please refrain from the "That was soooo me i win yayaya".

No exceptions! You are not that special, so no, you don't get to phone a friend or pick a multiple choice option.

If you are unsure, feel free to post a question here and it may be answered.

What "legendary" mess-up occurred in the second episode of Pokemon?

Ash saw Ho-Oh and thought it was an Articuno.

켄니씨 July 15th, 2011 5:16 PM

Actually the opposite confusing Articuno withHo-Oh sorry for mistake ;P

Tomandgreen July 15th, 2011 5:24 PM

Correct, ash thought ho-oh was articuno. That ash!

Ash made a big mistake in ep.2 with the bird switch-up, but the TV show makers made a much bigger mistake in that same episode! What is it?

켄니씨 July 15th, 2011 5:52 PM

Putting Arcanine as a legendary pokemon on the engravings?

Tomandgreen July 15th, 2011 6:36 PM

Yes!

Ash caught a lotta tauros in a episode that got banned because?
How many tauros were caught?

It's a two-parter, both parts needed. And remember, searching on the Internet for the answer is illegal, so please don't. It distroys the game.

Kenshin5 July 15th, 2011 6:40 PM

Ash had 30 Tauros and the reasons it was banned is excessive use of firearms and profanity.

Tomandgreen July 15th, 2011 6:44 PM
