TTQ - Season 146 - RayGamer99

[Ray502]

Q9 - What kind of star system does the Rayman series take place in?

100% certain. "Binary"

[Hunchman801]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that two suns are seen in various games.

[PluMGMK]

In the PS1 version they reunite with Uglette, but I'm not sure about the other versions. I think they just run out of there, though I don't know. Maybe they just stay there?

By the way this was your thousandth post Carrot, congratulations!

Score: 8
Q9 - When was co-op first considered in a Rayman game?

It was to be in the first game, to be released on NES, which was scrapped but is known because of an issue of Pix'N'Love.

[Master]

Hmm, this puts me in a bit of a bind. The platform you've given is incorrect. However, you did note how it was by Pix N' Love, which makes it clear what you were trying to refer to. So you're incorrect about the platform, yet technically correct in what you're referring to.

I think I'll have to be the Sith Lord and deal in absolutes, since you've not given the correct platform, I'm afraid I can't give the point.

This means Team A & B are now tied. Onwards to the final questions!
Team A:
Score: 8
Q9 - What were the Rabbid ships seen in prerelease material for the original RRR inspired by?

Team B:
Score: 8
Q9 - For which mobile company did Rayman appear on a billboard?

You have until 21:00 25.07.2017 GMT+0 to answer.

[Ambidextroid]

I think it's the big robots in war of the worlds

[Harpic fraîcheur]

Yeah, the tripods.

[Ray502]

Is that our final answer, tripods?

[NyaNyaLily]

Is that our final answer, tripods?

Tripods from "The War of the Worlds", to be exact.

[Ray502]

Q9 - What were the Rabbid ships seen in prerelease material for the original RRR inspired by?

Than it's settled, our answer is: Tripods from "The War of the Worlds."

[PluMGMK]

I would guess Orange.

[Master]

Two hours left, the final answer looms!

[PluMGMK]

Q9 - For which mobile company did Rayman appear on a billboard?

Right, Orange it is.

[Hunchman801]

Yep, that's the War of the Worlds indeed.

[Master]

Well, looks like we end with a tie! As stated in the rules, we'd go for the third set of questions. However, in this case, I've opted to discard the third set, as I already revealed the answer to one of the incorrectly answered questions, and the other was close enough that it'd be answered with ease no matter what.

So...we go to the Fastest Finger First. This is going to be a bit different. The key to this is to be quick, and will require equal footing. Consequently, I can't do this directly on the forums. As such, I propose using the IRC, it's still available, but disused. Both teams will nominate a player to play in this Fastest Finger Round, they will then agree a time with me to which they will be available to go on the IRC.

There will be three questions asked, and the answers will involve ordering items. For example:

A - Rayman 1
B - Rayman 2
C - Rayman 3
D - Rayman Origins
E - Rayman Legends

Q - Order the above by release date, from earliest to latest
A - ABCDE

The member who answers first gains a point. The member who has the most points will have their team go through to the next round.

While we're also here, I'd like to hear some feedback about how this round went. Some things I've been wondering about is whether I should've applied more scrutiny on member's activity, and also whether or not 12 hours is too long. Let me know your thoughts, and decide upon your chosen nominee for the Fastest Finger First round!

[Ambidextroid]

I thought the quiz so far was good, though I must admit the 12 hour time limit makes it a little less tense than usual TTQ

[PluMGMK]

IRC eh?

Couldn't resist!
Anyway I'm pretty woeful at speedy things, so anyone else want to volunteer?

Tbh if it were as tense as the usual one I'd've run away screaming by now.

[Ray502]

The first round went by solid in my opinion! I think the 12 hour limit should've been at 10 hours, but other than that, I enjoyed this round!

Can I nominate myself for the Finger round? If so, then I'll cast a vote on myself.

[Master]

I'll allow it, it's a nomination thing again, so I think it's alright.

[incognito]

No IRC or fastest connection for me.

[Harpic fraîcheur]

I think you'll do it good, Ray502. My vote goes to him!
