Yeah yeah, I may have to SADLY ask for your help. I don't think I'll be able to run one before my trip, so..

The next DL trivia will be on march 20th, 2009. Same format, same time. Any thoughts from the players about it?

In case you're wondering what the Aiel meant, I got all 3 Daily Doubles and wagered everything I had on them. The first two I failed, the third I won and that propelled me into the lead, but Nitori was still well within striking distance so I played the numbers in Final Jeopardy, but got the question wrong. Barely.

But it was all good fun, and I would definitely try to be around to avenge myself in round two.
Don't think of it as a novel. Think of it as a chance to retroactively win every argument you have ever walked away from.

I'm considering altering the format a bit.

One round of normal Jeopardy and one round of Jeopardy like the Obscura round this time- people PM me the response, more than one person can get it correct. That seems like a way to let more people play and account for lag.

Thoughts? Also, Snow is going to be my helper minion this time with questions.

400- Eternal Finality
500- Death Reborn Revolution

Emo idiot- I give a brief description or a quote, you tell me the idiot.

100- Wanted to create an eternal paradise with Shion. Insults fail to capture the depth of his stupid.
200- Ask me about how falling to my death will protect my little sister! PS I should've jumped into the volcano instead of hanging around for most of the game.
300- Phase three more involves me making a woman who loves me miserable more than anything emo.
400- SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU HADOKENING RETARD. YOU CAN USE YOUR HANDS NORMALLY NOW.
500- Hey, at least I did get to eat out the girlfriend, even if it wasn't in quite the right way..

Weapons- I give the weapon(s), you name the fighter.

100- Z-Saber
200- Mercury Rapier
300- Maken Valborg- Daily double
400- Amber Ring
500- Machine gun, boots, Time Bombs

Towns- I give the city/town, you give the game it's in.

100- Rocket Town
200- Sol Falena
300- Gerabellum
400- Runefaust
500- Bound

Race- I give the race, you tell me what game/series it's from.

100- Wingly
200- Woren
300- Vendeeni
400- Deimos
500- Tetujin

Duengons- I name the duengon, you give the game it's from.

100- Victory Road
200- L'Renouille
300- Sunken Shrine
400- City of White Nights
500- Old Cave

Group- I give the group, you give me the game it's in.

200- SeeD disciplinary committee
400- Maronakin's fanclub -Daily double
600- NYPD
800- Lampdragon bandits
1000- Order of the Radiant Heart

DL Lore

200- Lowest ranked light, also allegedly a former DL overlord.
400- This FF villianness won Godlike in her very first appearence in the arena.
600- This downgraded main character has gone more than 40 seasons without another match.
800- Booted before he ever got a match. Eve would not be amused!
1000- This Trent Renzor lookalike loses most of the time, yet beat the person who would later go on to defeat his God.

Parents- I give the parent and a brief blurb, you give the child.

200- Empress Endora's son, responsible for the massacre of the Zeteginian Paladins.
400- Greil was a badass in his own day. His son's no one to mess with either.
600- HE had HOW many kids? Oh hell NO. Damn it, Lilly. This is your fault!
800- Billy's a wanderer. He knows about one child and not the other, Billy also left his sword to his son. -Daily Double
1000- Catherine may not fight for the future like her husband, but she's more than happy to give him a certain Key item if he reads to their daughter. He has to defeat that filthy porngraphy before that happens though!

Nickname- I give the nickname, you give the fighter.

200- Guardian Angel of Solaris
400- Trump Card
600- Charm Lord
800- Manslayer
1000- Shooting Star

Obscurca- I give a brief blurb of info, you tell me what game it's from. There is no penalty for guessing wrong in this catagory. Only one guess for each question.

200- Rich Knights- not as cool as his dad.
400- Helba is a cheating ho.
600- Cane of Corpus- Weapon of Ninja Fairies everywhere, and thus 100% Trips approved.
800- Super Bomb owns. The Winglie and dumbass swordsman would be jealous, as would that inferior boss slayer Selphie!
1000- Shulam: proof that anyone with the Vega name is badass. Not as cool as people named Yoda, though, and definitely not as good as FE!

Dead or Alive- I (can) die in my game. Guess who I am after a brief description.


200- I hate most fish, but I love my 'granddaughter'!
400- I actually can die in a Suikoden duel. Guess picking a fight with my former master wasn't the best of ideas.   
600- This shadowwalking freak may be scary in a fight, but can be avoided outright if you fight the seer and his immortal pet.
800- The only way to save this childhood friend/lover is to master the power of Vandal Hearts and friendship both. She still needs to shut up.
1000- Saving me is a serious pain in the ass, but it can be done. You lose access to a PC, my wife, for most of the second half of the game if you do this, though. (I seriously had to FAQ this, and I played the fucking game at least twice. Fail, game.)

I'd at least scrap the lack of penalty for guessing wrong if everyone can answer category types since I'd assume it wouldn't be 6 whole categories of painful obscure.

Format: First round is 100-500 points. To guess at a question in the first round, PM me with your guess within the time frame (15) seconds), and then post it when I go. A wrong guess costs you points, same as always. This way, more people can play in the first round.  Second round  is the same as normal Jeopardy. Thoughts on this?

Game starts this friday at 10pm EST.

really, for that 1000 points in Dead or alive, you really had to FAQ that? (If that is the game I am thinking of) I never even had that character die.
