Random Access Memory is correct!

SilentSanctuary gets to the buzzer first and now only needs one more point, however you will also have to skip this question.

SilentSanctuary - 9 Points
The Jonster - 5 Points
Aaron - 2 Points
LoveMetal - 1 Point
Alexinator - 1 Point
PopuriAO29 - 1 Point

Bonus Question #2: What company’s first product was an audio oscillator?

[PluMGMK]

Was it Moog?

[Steo]

It's not that one. If I'm right, it seems Moog specialized in synthesizers.

[Steo]

You can reanswer this one since nobody else has answered. I'll advance later even if it remains unanswered.

[LoveMetal]

Texas Instruments?

[Steo]

That's still not the one unfortunately. I'll leave the question open and move on though.

SilentSanctuary - 9 Points
The Jonster - 5 Points
Aaron - 2 Points
LoveMetal - 1 Point
Alexinator - 1 Point
PopuriAO29 - 1 Point

Bonus Question #2: What company’s first product was an audio oscillator?

Question #20: The name "Jack the Ripper" was given to an unidentified serial killer in 1888. What city did he terrorise?

[SilentSanctuary]

London - the Whitechapel district, to be precise! Been watching some true crime stories lately... I guess I can answer this question, since I didn't answer the last one, even though it wasn't answered at all?

[Steo]

Uh well I guess since I left the question open, but you only had to skip one question, it's only fair to count it.

CORRECT!!!

So Hooray SilentSanctuary is victorious and takes season 3. Congratulations!

1ST: SilentSanctuary - 10 Points + Bonus Question #1
2ND: The Jonster - 5 Points
3RD: Aaron - 2 Points

So here's one last question for you SilentSanctuary, would you like to host Season 4?

[SilentSanctuary]

I guess I could - when exactly would I start it?

[The Jonster]

2 weeks from now on September 2nd.

Am I correct, Plum?

Btw congrats SilentSanctuary!

Edit: Oops I appear to have ninja-posted.

[Steo]

I guess I could - when exactly would I start it?

Yeah it would be the 2nd of September or later if you needed more time

[SilentSanctuary]

All right, I guess I could do it! I'm going to have some Uni stuff in the near future, but I think I can also manage the quiz.

[Steo]

Well you can ask 1 or 2 questions per day if you don't have that much time. I just happened to not be busy so I asked like 5 per day

[PluMGMK]

Congrats SilentSanctuary!

[Aaron]

Well done, SilentSanctuary!

[SilentSanctuary]

Thanks a lot!

[SilentSanctuary]

All right, I guess I could start the next round of the quiz tomorrow or the day after. Right now I have an essay to write, but I'll post the first question early on next week...

EDIT: Whoops, sorry for double posting. I didn't realize the last message in this topic was actually mine.

[SilentSanctuary]

OK, consider the fourth season of the quiz started!

Question #1: What historical event is Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina, best known for?

[Pirez]

Oh that's an easy one : the assassination of the Austrian Archduke in 1914 that ultimately begot WW1.

But as a close second I'd nominate the siege of the Bosnian war in the late 1990s where my Dad went to twice.

[SilentSanctuary]

Correct! I was looking for the first one of your answers, although I definitely won't understate the importance of the latter.

Pirez – 1 point

Question #2: What scale is used to measure the capsaicin concentration or, in other words, spiciness of chili peppers?
