| Teddylot: If you take a look to your right, you'll noticed two words, both being the same. This word his known as "played"! As you can deduct, its infinitive is "to play" and it is currently in the "past tense". Therefore, you can, once again, deduct that all seven games have passed. Announcer: Basically . . . try again. |

| Teddylot: Sorry JJ## but Kirby All The Way got it before you did. Announcer: Hmm, if this continues, I feel that NSNick's prized lead might be threatened. Screen of Points: NSNick -- 15 Points Jagori -- 9 Points Kefka -- 6 Points Kirby ATW -- 5 Points LostAuzzie -- 3 Points Emptyeye -- 2 Points Geeogree -- 1 Point Ultimanium -- 1 Point Felix -- 1 Point neotransotaku -- 1 Point wolfman2000 -- 1 Point Screen of Shame: Jarukoth -- 0 Points Edsgravy0 -- 0 Points Xkeeper -- 0 Points ETG -- 0 Points JJ64 -- 0 Points Teddylot: *goes to check on the computers in the control room* Hmm, everything seems to be running smoothly. *turns out lights and exits* Computer: *red glowy eyes* Question 44: While working out with weights, Ari Gant had his personal trainer put a 25 pound weight on each end of the bar, a 10 pound weight on each end, and then three two pound weights on each end. Ari then took over and lifted the bar above his head. How much did Ari lift all together? Note: The FIVE point bonus is still free for all. See page 8 (This is on the default, 20 posts/page.) If no one has answered it by page 10, it'll be gone . . . forever . . . because I'll give out the answer . . . Booga! Note2: There are another 4 Bonus Points available. See page 9 (Default 20 posts/page). |

How much does the bar weigh  Can I guess 122 lbs if the bar weighed 40 lbs? |

| Announcer: Well, since the answer we were looking for was 82 lbs. plus the bar, then I guess we could give it to you. Teddylot: Oh, and now for a little insight to my mind. The answer to the FIVE point bonus question is . . . wait a minute, I'm getting something from the show's producer through my ear thingy . . . Hmm . . . Okies! Well, in the show's best interest I will give everybody a chance to poke a few last guesses at the FIVE point bonus question. If nobody gets the answer by the time I post tommorow, then I'll give away the answer. Screen of Points: NSNick -- 15 Points Jagori -- 9 Points Kefka -- 6 Points Kirby ATW -- 6 Points LostAuzzie -- 3 Points Emptyeye -- 2 Points Geeogree -- 1 Point Ultimanium -- 1 Point Felix -- 1 Point neotransotaku -- 1 Point wolfman2000 -- 1 Point Screen of Shame: Jarukoth -- 0 Points Edsgravy0 -- 0 Points Xkeeper -- 0 Points ETG -- 0 Points JJ64 -- 0 Points Question 45: The 22nd and 24th presidents of the United States has the same mother and the same father, but were not brothers. How could this be possible? Announcer: Okay, when answering this question, DO NOT go looking for the answer using search engines. Teddylot: Or whatnot. Announcer: It's not playing fair. Note: You have until tommorow when I post to answer the FIVE point bonus. See page 8 for details. (Default page settings) Teddylot: Booga! Note2: There are another 4 Bonus Points available. See page 9 (Default 20 posts/page). You have until Friday at 6:00 p.m. to figure them out. |

| If I remember correctly, the bar is usually 45 lbs. So that would make it 127 pounds, though I suspect there's a more devious answer here... Edit: Ack, too late. But the answer to this one is simple. The 22nd and 24th Presidents were the same person: Grover Cleveland. (edited by NSNick on 06-07-04 07:58 PM) |

| Teddylot: Woah, ATW, you're wandering off a bit there. Announcer: And NSNick takes the cake with his historically acurate answer. =D Screen of Points: NSNick -- 16 Points Jagori -- 9 Points Kefka -- 6 Points Kirby ATW -- 6 Points LostAuzzie -- 3 Points Emptyeye -- 2 Points Geeogree -- 1 Point Ultimanium -- 1 Point Felix -- 1 Point neotransotaku -- 1 Point wolfman2000 -- 1 Point Screen of Shame: Jarukoth -- 0 Points Edsgravy0 -- 0 Points Xkeeper -- 0 Points ETG -- 0 Points JJ64 -- 0 Points Question 46: Which would be worth more, a pound of $10 pure gold coins or half a pound of $20 pure gold coins; or would they be worth the same amount? Explain. Teddylot: I know the answer! Announcer: Boy, that's a first. Note: You have until tommorow when I post to answer the FIVE point bonus. See page 8 for details.

| Depends on which kind of coin is heavier... The coin that is heavier gets less coins per "bin, and is therefore worth less.... Whatever coin is lighter... thats the one that gets more... At least I think... |

| Announcer: This one goes to JJ64. This finally puts him on the important board. Teddylot: But he'll have to get a few more points to actually matter in this game. Screen of Points: NSNick -- 16 Points Jagori -- 9 Points Kefka -- 6 Points Kirby ATW -- 6 Points LostAuzzie -- 3 Points Emptyeye -- 2 Points Geeogree -- 1 Point Ultimanium -- 1 Point Felix -- 1 Point neotransotaku -- 1 Point wolfman2000 -- 1 Point JJ64 -- 1 Point Screen of Shame: Jarukoth -- 0 Points Edsgravy0 -- 0 Points Xkeeper -- 0 Points ETG -- 0 Points Teddylot: Alrighty then, umm, next question. Question 47: Archduke Francis Ferdinand of Austria was shot on June 28, 1914. When the attendants rushed over to him, they could not get him out of his uniform. Consequently, he bled to death. The problem they had encountered was that they could not unbutton or unzip his uniform. Why? Teddylot: Historical! Note: You have until tommorow when I post to answer the FIVE point bonus. See page 8 for details. (Default page settings) Note2: There are another 4 Bonus Points available. See page 9 (Default 20 posts/page). You have until Friday at 6:00 p.m. to figure them out. Announcer: Come on, guys! Try and give these a whirl. |

| Are those bonus points attatched to the Merchant of Venice reference? I think it was NSNick who already illustarted that that was the piece you were talking about, but I don't think anyone went into any further detail. If it's still worth anything, I'm almost certain this is a reference to the part where Portia says to Shylock that bloodshed would cost him everything he owned so his wrath should take a pound of flesh, but no more or less. I think he would lose everything he owned, and it would become public Venitian property? Something like that, anyway. (edited by Felix on 06-08-04 01:45 PM) |

| Teddylot: . . . Holy Bonus Points! *looks at the announcer* Felix just got the bonus right! . . . Nutty! Announcer: Well, I guess your mind wasn't as intricate as you boasted, Teddylot. Oh, and I'll be giving the mainstream point to Kirby ATW, since he gave the answer I was looking for. Teddylot: Oh, but Apple did point out that the Archduke was sewn into his uniform, so he will not be visiting the dreaded Screen of Shame. Instead, he will reinstate the Screen of Valiant Effort. Good job! Screen of Points: NSNick -- 16 Points Jagori -- 9 Points Kirby All The Way -- 7 Points Kefka -- 6 Points Felix -- 6 Points LostAuzzie -- 3 Points Emptyeye -- 2 Points Geeogree -- 1 Point Ultimanium -- 1 Point neotransotaku -- 1 Point wolfman2000 -- 1 Point JJ64 -- 1 Point Screen of Shame: Jarukoth -- 0 Points Edsgravy0 -- 0 Points Xkeeper -- 0 Points ETG -- 0 Points Screen of Valiant Effort: Apple -- 0 Points Teddylot: Now, for the next question. Question 48: The Isle of Begile is a place where the natives always lie, and the visitors always tell the truth. Shadow is interviewing prospective candidates for police work, the requirements being that the person must be a truth teller. While interviewing a young man for the job, the applicant suddenly volunteers that the woman in line behind him had confided that she is a native. Is the young man in the interview qualified for the job? Explain. Teddylot: Hmm, good thing I'm a visitor. Note2: There are another 4 Bonus Points available. See page 9 (Default 20 posts/page).
