Oddworld Competition
 
Hello Forumers! It is time for the second Oddworld Question Competition game! Last time, the members had a lot of fun, and we are hoping that you all will this time, too! The original thread can be found here:

http://www.oddworldforums.net/showth...ghlight=winner



Okay, the game works like this. We will organize two teams, the Native team and the Industrial team. Each team will have a Leader. One of the three Hosts (Xav, Max, and I) will ask an Oddworld Related Question, and then the team Leader will discuss with his or her team (IN PM’S!) the answer to the previous Question. Once the team has their Answer ready, the team Leader will PM the Host that asked that Question with the Answer. -Note that ONLY the team Leader may PM that Host and tell him the answer. We do not want tons of members sending PM’s, so please... only PM’s from Leaders.-
Which ever team has the correct answer, gets one point for that round. If, by chance, both teams have the correct answer, the point will go to the team that replied the fastest. There will be a 3 day limit to get your teams answer in, due to timezones. Then, after that round, a new leader will be chosen for the team. If your team loses, the leader that was in charge for that round will be eliminated.


Please DO NOT post answers in the thread, only give answers by PM’s. And, Team Leaders, remember to PM your team members, discussing the answer, before you send a PM to one of the Hosts. A really important thing, is that you all remember to keep track of your PM count, so that you have room for more PM’s. I don’t know if this will be an issue though, thanks to Alcar.;)

Each round there will be a new team leader, so chose wisely.
This time, you will have to search in many different places for the answer.
The Internet, The First Ten Years, The Games, possibly Magazines, ect.


So, now that I think everything has been explained we can start! If anyone has any further Questions, please ask now;).
If there are no further Questions, I would like everyone who wants to partake in this activity, to please say so, and say the team that you would like to be on- Native, or Industrial.

Thank you, guys. Let’s make this fun, and get some good activity going on these Forums;)

Ooh I'd love to join! This sounds like fun! The system sounds a bit confusing, but I'm sure I'll get the hang of this later on. I'd like to be on the Industrials, please :D

Cullen Heath 02-25-2007 11:38 AM

;)
Thanks, Skillya.

Okay, one for Industrial, and one for Native.


If you guys get confused just ask.

Fuzzle Guy 02-25-2007 11:39 AM

Jordan 02-25-2007 01:42 PM

Wow, this'll be fun! :happy: Can I join please? I'd like to be on the Native side if that's okay, thankyou! :)

snuzi 02-25-2007 01:54 PM

I'd like to join the Industrial side :).

Zerox 02-25-2007 01:55 PM

Industrial, k thx.
How hard can these questions be? Will they be listed here, or what?
A list of who's in which team within the first post could be pretty helpful, too.

Cullen Heath 02-25-2007 01:59 PM

Okay, so we have:
Zerox, Snuzi, Skillya for the Industrial side
and
Jordan Boi, and Fuzzle Guy for the Natives.

And to Zerox, the questions will start off really easy and then they will increase in difficulty as we get going.

Keep joining, guys!

Slaveless 02-25-2007 05:05 PM

Cullen Heath 02-25-2007 06:15 PM

Okay, cool, we are kinda on a roll.
Okay, does at least one person from each team have The First Ten Years book?

snuzi 02-25-2007 06:40 PM

Yes, I'm pretty certain that both Skillya and Jordan_Boi own the First Ten Years book.

Bullet Magnet 02-25-2007 08:10 PM

Affirmative.

used:) 02-25-2007 08:31 PM

I do not have an art book *sobs*, but I do have a seasoned knowledge of Oddworld.

Cullen Heath 02-25-2007 08:38 PM

Okay, Bullet has one, and I know Skillya has got one.
We're good.

squeak117 02-25-2007 11:03 PM

Yeah, ok :rolleyes:. Let's completely disregard the fact that you contribute to a majority of the senseless or repetitive questions in the Q & A Section.

squeak117 02-26-2007 09:53 PM

If it doesn't even up, i'll move to natives. I don't mind.

Cullen Heath 02-26-2007 09:55 PM

Okay, thanks for being willing;)
We should try and get this started by Wed... so I am trying to see if people want to play. Hopefully we'll get a decent amount of people.
EDIT: Oh, yeah, if you guys have any questions about how the game is going to work, or what you will be doing, or if you want to switch teams, just ask.;)

OddjobAbe 02-26-2007 10:39 PM

I'll join. Put me with the industrialists, please.

Jordan 02-26-2007 11:47 PM

Man, we Natives are gonna be loners! :D Someone please join us! :p

Xavier 02-26-2007 11:58 PM

Yeah or we will have to ask someone to switch sides

OddjobAbe 02-27-2007 09:45 AM

If worst comes to the worst, I'll switch sides. We'll just see how it goes though, eh?

skillya_glowi 02-27-2007 04:18 PM

'Kay so the questions will be posted here right? And then...the team members just PM each other discussing it...And once they're done they PM the leader...the leader PM's the host...is that right?

And, just to note. I studied hard :evil:

Paramite of War 02-27-2007 05:00 PM

Oh please sign me up for the Natives and I have and I have the art book

Cullen Heath 02-27-2007 06:38 PM

Paramite of War, thank you for joining the Natives!

Skillya, yup that's correct, except that the leader will be discussing with the team.

Xavier 02-28-2007 01:20 AM

lol, way too many natives over here :p

Cullen Heath 02-28-2007 08:08 AM

If we can just get three more people to join, we could start. Or one more person, and someone can switch over.

moxco 02-28-2007 10:48 AM

Whos the industrails leader? Alcar I pressume?

squeak117 02-28-2007 03:12 PM

Okay, i'm officially moving to the Native side.
