It's hard to think up questions, what can I say? 
And this is why I was inactive NSNick, welcome to the hot seat! Here's a gas mask so you don't have to smell Fabio's B.O.

You mean like 'The Weakest Link' in which "Round 1" has questions which are so easy, there absolutely impossible.......... to get wrong (or so you think).... you know things like:
"In maths, what is 29 + 1?" (of which the answer is 30, obviously), "The colours of the french flag are red, white and what?" (of which the answer is blue), whereas as the game progresses, the questions get harder, e.g. "In chemistry, which chemical compound is found naturally in each of these: Aragonite, Calcite, Chalk, Limestonem Marble, Travertine?" (of which the answer is Calcium Carbonate) or "In maths, integration can be used to do which of these: Calculate the area between two graphs, and two points on the x-axis; OR; to find the gradient of a curve at a given point?" (of which the answer is the 'area-between-two-graphs', and the opposite, is differentiation, which is used to find the gradient of a curve at a given point, and is usually written dy/dx, or d/dy (which stands for derivative y over derivative x, I think)). |

Originally posted by TheUltimateKoopa #2 Of course, but the point is, it should be designed in a way so that later questions are much harder than earlier ones. It makes more sense that way and is more akin to the game - otherwise, this is just "answer 15 questions". |

Originally posted by TheUltimateKoopa #2 It was a "Fastest Finger Question", that means the first on getting it right gets to play. I had no idea, but I see no reason for not trying to guess, so I did. |

(So, what's Uly doing answering the question then?)
Also, some later questions might be as easy, or maybe easier than earlier questions. |

Originally posted by TheUltimateKoopa #2 NSNick is, he got it right. That is, if LS gets off his hindquarters and starts this up. The questions are horribly unbalanced, though. That's one of the problems I have with this version of the game. Some early questions are as hard as later ones. |

Wait, who's playing, Uly or NSNick? |

I should PM Luigi-San about getting this game to run again.
And no, snaking is not cheating. Provide me with reasons why it is cheating. |

Don't you hate it when some one answers the final question and the presenter, depending on which country you're in (I'm in the UK, so it's Chris Tarrant for me), is like:
"[Name of contestant], you had 500,000 (currency depends, again, on the country), if you get this wrong, you could lose 468,000..." ---long period of silence--- "... and then he/she goes "We'll find out after the break", just to build are suspense? Well, this is like one of these times, except um... the break is just over a month rather than 5 minutes Oh, yeah, and... fabio, did you know that snacking is chesting in Mario Kart DS? |

My friend has spoken.
The answer is B. New York Mets. |
| Luigi-San Posts: 1268/1713 |
You do. |
| fabio Posts: 1741/2415 |
I thought about who I'm going to PM. I'll PM Acillatem98 since he knows a lot more about sports than I do.
Do I send the PM now or does the host do that? |
| Luigi-San Posts: 1255/1713 |
Sure. Who will you PM? |
| fabio Posts: 1732/2415 |
Well, looks like I'm going to have to use my last lifeline for this one. Can I PM a friend now? |
