Trivia D vs. s Game IV - 4/23/2009 10:54:42 PM

Status: offline 		After a very long absence, Vaugher has returned to continue the Trivia Challenge.  It has been many months, so herein the rules shall be explained for review.

I shall ask a Trivia question, its content can be any random topic that pops into my head. 

Teams are Dominants, and submissives.

Switches may play for either team, but once you pick a team you're stuck with it.  In the interest of fairness I cannot allow any flip-flopping.

All players are on the honor system not to cheat by using Google or Wikipedia.

The first person to post a correct answer scores 2 points for their team.  If you post an answer that prempts the sought answer, you score a three-pointer.  (For example, if I ask who was the world's first Billionaire, a certain Oil Mogul likely pops to mind.  Rockerfeller is the textbook correct answer, but if you know of a certain Roman who who was a billionaire in his time, you would prempt the answer.

If you wish to dispute an answer I have labeled as correct, please find a site to cite your basis, and post it.  Due to past player's complaints about Wikipedia as an open source tool, for this game it cannot be used for this purpose.

All questions will be given an expiration time.  If no one answers the question by this time, I will provide the answer and move on.  This time is also a good indicator of when the next question will be given as I cannot check the page every hour of every day.

Are all internet research methods off limits, or only Google & Wiki? Is this to test knowledge in an individual's mind, or ability to find info, or ?

Thanks.

Status: offline 		In answer to Demona, all resource sites are off-limits, its a trivia game, using external sights would be cheating.  Since it would be quite illegal for me to monitor people for compliance, I simply leave it to the honor system for people not to cheat.

Steel of Utah scores first for the Dominants, and his dedicated answer is technically a premption so I will give it the three points.

Dominants: 3
submissives: 0

Next Question

Pounds are a measure of weight, which is decided by gravity.
Kilograms are a measure of Mass, which is constant.  Hence a 100kg object on Earth is still 100kg on the Moon.

Dominants: 3
submissives: 2
