Hostrauser's Trivia Contest #10 - March, 2008
Posted: Fri Feb 29, 2008 12:04 pm
Once again, everyone is welcome to play, and you may join at any time.
Please send all answers in PMs.
SCORING:
1. A reminder: EVERY correct answer gets points. It's really worthwhile to answer every question.
2. Each question will be worth up to 50 points (the last 4-5 questions are likely to be doubled). The first to answer correctly will get all 50 points, the second person will get 40 points, and the third person will get 30 points. All other correct answers will get 25 points. There will be no points deducted for wrong answers.
FORMAT:
1. All answers must be submitted through PM. Answers posted to the thread will not receive credit.
2. You may answer in PM as many times as you like, but only your last answer will count (right or wrong). If you want to take a wild stab at it in hopes of getting in first, go ahead. You can correct it later if you choose.
3. Hedged answers will not receive credit. You can ask for clarification in this thread or in PMs (I may or may not answer), but other than that, you'll just have to take your best guess.
THE ROUND #10 CATEGORIES ARE...
NAME THAT WORLD CAPITAL
NAME THAT BODY OF WATER
NAME THAT AMERICAN UNIVERSITY
Further details...
Should be pretty self explanatory. The World Capital category will only feature national capital, not regional ones. The Body of Water category might feature oceans, bays, rivers, lakes or waterfalls. The Universities will all be "Major" four-year universities.
Each category will have eight pictures, for 24 total.
Round #10 will begin on Saturday, March 1st.
