I'm still working on the Anime Quiz, and to be fair and to give both teams a chance, I am limiting myself to question concerning Anime series that I've seen personally. I'll give you a overview of it's format..
Quiz will be composed of 30 Question, plus 3 Bonus questions. with a time limit of 1 hour from the posting of the final bonus question, which means an average of two minutes per question to agree on the answer. Questions will be posted on the agreed upon time in a closed thread in the Anime Fanatics sub-forum.

All answers must be contained in a single post (to be posted in the Contest sub-forum of Announcements). Once the team answers have been graded, they will be merged into the original question thread, along with the expected answer list.

Scoring. Total scores are based on the number of correct answers (with no penalty for guessing) In addition, for the team that posts their answers first, they will receive one additional point for every 5 minutes (rounded up) of time difference between answer posts...


For all Question categories, if the person/object/thing in question appears in more then one series, the earliest series made is the correct answer...

Categories of questions.
1. Students with Secret (and not so Secret) identities, nicknames and secret lives. Given two out of the three data categories, (Name, Occupation, Public Persons) fill in the missing category, and identify the Anime series

2. Ships of the Line. From the description, identify the Ship, it's Captain/Owner/Operator and the Anime Series it's from.

3. Android/Mecha/Vehicle classes (where a class indicates more then 1 unique or non-unique example in the Anime series in question) Given the class name, identify the Anime Series it's from.

4. Named Mecha/Vehicles. Given the name of a Mecha or Vehicle, identify the operator and the Anime Series it's from.

5. Magical Chants, Given the Magical Chant/Phrase, identify the character and the Anime series they appear in...

6. Anime Trivia, questions concerning an entire Anime series...

Would the quiz be a free-for-all of both teams, or a mega-nerd selected between each team?

All declared team members may participate, (and teams must be of the same number)... However, only one team member posts the answer. (So teams better prepare their PM and IM communication links before the Quiz is launched...)

well we onl have 5 members max anyways *roll eyes*

I think we should take a few days to start. We still have to agree on which day are the members available and who is going to actually participate.

I agree a day to set what is going to happen is a good place to start and who will watching over the challenges.

The Quiz is nearly finished, and I'm going over my list to replace the most obscure and most give away questions with something easier/harder

To give a heads up on what to expect...
All Anime series (with one exception) have had a US/Region 1 DVD release.
All characters and objects referenced are either main, or major components of their respective series.
All phrases (with one exception) are major parts for their respective series. The one exception is used once in it's series, but still occurs in a significant dramatic scene.

Gotcha. I guess I'll volunteer for the anime quiz. That is, if that's OK with the rest of the clan.
