Day Two!

Everyone is of course free to participate, and you can join in at any time (although, of course, any days you've missed are days you can't score points). There's no need to ask whether or not you can join, just jump right on in!

The rules are simple

DO

- send me your answers VIA PM, I'll evaluate them and send you your score, and which ones you got right. Keep that to yourself, of course.
- join in whenever you feel like it
- comment in the thread as long as it doesn't give hints, spell out answers, or otherwise reveals what the answers to the questions might be, however vaguely
- send me question suggestions. I can't guarantee I'll use them, but I definitely will if they're good ones
- ask questions not pertaining to the quiz questions

DO NOT

- answer in the thread. I can't stress this enough. It ruins it for everyone
- Google answers. I try to make my questions not that easy to google, but of course, you can if you want to cheat. There's no money to be won with this, so it's just a bit of fun - play fair, don't googuru.
- complain in the thread. Send me a PM if you have concerns
- whine about this or that game not being included. I'm doing these purely from my own mind (so every question is solvable)

After the questions have been posted, they'll stay on for at least 24 hours, after which I'll announce the scores, give out the correct answers, and post the new questions. Scores carry over from round to round!

PEOPLE OF THE BETHESDA FORUMS, DO NOT REPLY TO A PRIVATE CONVERSATION STARTED ON THE DAYS BEFORE, ALWAYS SEND A FRESH PM - I have to delete convos so my inbox doesn't get full, and if you reply to a convo I've deleted, I don't get your PM.

1.“Excuse me, human, puh-rivate conver-say-shee-un? Ugh.”

2.“A bomb is a poor choice for close-range combat.”

3.“You almost became a Jill sandwich!”

4.“Evil always finds a way.”

5.“No temeré mal, no temeré mal, no temeré mal!”

6.“I should have been the one to fill your dark soul WITH LIGHT!” (… ight… ight… ight…)

7.“Give a man a bullet and he’ll want a gun. Give a man a gun and he’ll be giving away the bullets.”

8.“What greater power is there than to turn an enemy to your cause? To use their knowledge against them?”

9.“Right… today we’ll be discussing the philosophy of putting a bullet in someone’s head.”

10.“Come on, Cranky! Take it to the fridge!”

Good luck, and again DO NOT ANSWER IN THE THREAD!

I don't know any of these

Seriously? Some of those are really classic ones

I definitely know 2 (again) and I'm meh about two more.

Quotes, my weakpoint ?_?

I answered 5 today. 2, 3 and 6 were the easiest for me. I'm not 100% sure on 1 and 9 though but I guessed anyway.

I'm certain I know 3...and certain I recognize another 3 but have no idea what they were from, boo. An unfortunate drop from knowing 7 in the first round.

Also, my nerdish leanings compel me to correct an answer from the first round, Arthur doesn't have to spend the whole game in his underwear. You can totally get armor-replacing powerups.

Heh, I know the first and last. I could take some guesses on the other 8 and perhaps get one or two right.

Gah, these ones are much harder!

Still a fun quiz though.

As if. The game is so damn impossibly hard that you're dead before you can take two more steps.

Also, you should be able to get a good score if you join, why don't you?

I know exactly one of them. Are they all JRPG's or something?

Not by a long shot. In fact, there's not a single one in this round, and there was only one in the previous.

Piffle, says I. It's the game's hardness that makes you have to be good at avoiding getting hit in the first place.

And fine, bleh. Though I'm hardly going to be getting a good score with a missed first round and my mighty "probably three" in this one.

I know two of them! That's two more than I thought I'd know. ^_^

few...I did good

There's eight more rounds after this one, plenty of time to catch up Didn't you get a high score the first year too?

Also, I gave points for "his armour falls off", or "he has to go on in his underwear" and all those in the same vein


Good on ya, lass!


You did, you did

Psh, I only knew one from yesterday. I guess I need to play more video games.

I know none of them.

I might ask my friend, but I think I will just skip this one.

I actually know more of these than I did the last time around.
Though a bunch of them are still baffling as hell. .3.

Well, if everyone could easily get a perfect 10, it wouldn't be much fun either, would it?

I don't recall playing the first year. I wouldn't have any idea, on a good day my memory doesn't go back a week.

I asked a friend and after looking at them again I am pretty sure I know 2,3,8 and I think my friend knows 1, so I PMed you.

I distinctly remember you getting a good score. Hang on, I can dig up the scores from last year somewhere.

edit: Hm, nope, I'm mistaken, sorry.

Hm, checking the old scores, and I see Freddo scored a respectable 5th place last year.
