TES lore Quiz Thread.

Post » Fri Mar 08, 2013 9:53 pm

Okay, so the last thread was closed by a mod for unknown reasons. I asked, and Freddo wouldn't reply. (Yeah, thanks.) so I thought I'd try and make a second one, seeing as I asked another mod who told me that no rules were actually broken.

The Rules:

1. Questions must be relevant to the Elder Scrolls Lore. Anything off-topic will be ignored/ reported to
moderators. Keep in line, please!

2. Whoever asks the question 'holds' (figuratively, obviously) the :tes: emoticon, until the question they put forward is answered.

3. Whoever correctly answers the question must put the :tes: emoticon in their post, and provide the next question.

4. If a question is not answered within one day, a new one must be put forward by a different user.

4. Only ask one question at a time.


Also, if anybody is interested, here's my message to the mod stating why I thought the original thread should be reopened:

Okay, so I figured that I would put together a reasonable case as to why I believe that the thread should be allowed to stay open.

Firstly, it appeared that those participating were animated about the idea of a quiz thread, and putting their knowledge to the test. Also, as far as I could see, no forum rules were broken. The quiz rules did outline that any spamming or other rule-breakers would be reported.

Second, the quiz's similarity to the 'Oblivion Quiz Thread' were only that, a quiz. Besides that, the topic was drastically different, as the Oblivion Quiz Thread was aimed at the game and its inner mechanics, while the Lore Quiz Thread targeted the overall story of the TES lore, which is almost completely irrelevent to the Oblivion Quiz Topic. By using this thread for my topic, I would actually be breaking rules.

Also, when I asked another moderator, they did not see a reason as to why it should have been closed, as it did not conflict with another topic or break any rules.

I hope you see this little message. Thanks for reading.

I'll start with a question.

Q: When an Aldmeri ambassador came to the Emperor with the Dominion's demands prior to the Great War, he arrived at White Gold Tower with a horse cart. What was inside the cart that marked the beginning of the war?

The heads of every Blades member in the Isles and Valenwood and maybe Elsweyr.

They're only going to shut this down, again.
