TTQ - Season 146 - RayGamer99

[Master]

Hmm, I've looked at this sequence a few times, yet the pattern eludes me.

[RibShark]

The order seems obvious to me the moment I saw it, but I am not allowed to say what it is. I also forgot to thank Xenon for hosting this season in replacement for me, so, thanks Xenon!

[Master]

After some deep thought, I think I've got it:

[Xenon]

Very well done Master. For those who aren't getting it, these are the first four enemies Rayman encounters in combat.

Plum - 4 points
Master - 4 points
Emshomar - 2 points
Lumgum - 2 points
Humch - 1 point
Beebo44 - 1 point
Roles - 1 point

Q: list in some detail the purposes of plums in the second game.

[Master]

Hmm, I was about to answer, but I recall having answered the previous question as well, so I'll have to skip this one as per the revised ruleset.

[PluMGMK]

I figured out the right answer in bed last night, and I was going to try posting a hint today if no-one got it right. I can't believe I forgot those annoying little yokes…

Plums:
They can bounce, allowing access to higher ground.
They can bounce on some kinds of lava, and on toxic water, allowing transportation over them that would not otherwise be possible.
They can be thrown onto posts, where they may create a platform that can allow for access to higher ground.
They can be thrown onto the heads of Gorilla Pirates, neutralising them, and again creating platforms that allow access to higher ground.

[Xenon]

That's it.

Plum - 5 points
Master - 4 points
Emshomar - 2 points
Lumgum - 2 points
Humch - 1 point
Beebo44 - 1 point
Roles - 1 point

Q: in the original game, describe in some detail how Rayman can enter bonus levels.

[Master]

Rayman must have a minimum of 10 tings collected, any less and he'll be told to collect them before returning. A bonus level's entrance is the Magician, he lies in secluded areas in various levels, and needs to be sought out. Once located, Rayman must approach him, and deliver upon him the required 10 tings. These tings will be deducted, and Rayman will be granted entry. These tings used to buy access to a bonus level are non-refundable, they cannot be given back. However, tings earned during the bonus level will be added to the overall ting count.

[Xenon]

Thank you for that very detailed answer.

Plum - 5 points
Master - 5 points

Lumgum - 2 points
Humch - 1 point
Beebo44 - 1 point

Q: name two Rayman M race levels that share the same tune in Popolopoi mode.

[Haruka]

The Nebulous Tower and the Forest Jump I believe.

[Xenon]

Wrong, but I'll ask another question as this one is too difficult it seems. There are actually more than ten qualifying answers for this question, so I won't list them all.

Q: which Rayman 2 character makes an appearance in Tonic Trouble?

[PluMGMK]

The General, of course.

[Master]

Huh, with the end of my exams, I can compete in this, can't I?

[Xenon]

Plum - 6 points
Master - 5 points
Emshomar - 2 points
Lumgum - 2 points
Humch - 1 point
Beebo44 - 1 point
Roles - 1 point

Q: in Origins, which enemies apparently enjoy bouncing Lums around like basketballs?

[PluMGMK]

Lividstones.

[Xenon]

Yep.

Plum - 7 points
Master - 5 points
Emshomar - 2 points
Lumgum - 2 points
Humch - 1 point
Beebo44 - 1 point
Roles - 1 point

Q: in the second game, who owns a purple hat with yellow shapes on it?

[PluMGMK]

Polokus and Jano.

[Master]

Not to rain on the parade, but there was a change in rules not too long ago:

In the interest of fairness, an additional rule is that players are only permitted to answer two questions in succession. Once two have been answered, the player must then skip the following question. He will be able to rejoin after this. Alternatively, the player can choose to skip 1 question if he answers the preceding question correctly. Why was this rule devised? Simply to prevent victors from winning through activity alone. This rule is sometimes quite difficult to follow so please ask the quizmaster for assistance if you are confused.

[Xenon]

You shouldn't have answered, as per the activity rule. I should've informed of course so for that I do apologise.

Q: other than Lums and plants, list all the signs of inhabitance in the first 'room' in the Fairy Council, TFC.

(The area Murfy explains the score counter to Rayman)

Edit: thanks Master.

[PluMGMK]

Sorry, I thought it was three.
