Hi everyone! Don't worry about the title, I'm not going to slander City Worker neutral for taking a break from Trivia Hour. In fact, I think it's a great idea!!! Him spending another couple hours a week programming is for our own good.

And plus, we are a rather annoying crowd some of the time. ;-)

Now, I was thinking... I have nothing to do on an evening and I've been to quite a few Trivia Hours in my time. How about I run a weekly Trivia for you guys? Loads of people do mini Trivia Hours, but with no official event for a month, wouldn't it be cool to have a regular unofficial Trivia Hour?

It wouldn't be the same as a normal Trivia Hour, of course. I'm not cool enough (or a City Worker) to invite people down to stage. I still have to use projectiles to get down to the stage. But I can give out clams like we all can, and I can give people their 15 minutes of fame.

I'm not promising this will happen. But I think it would be really fun for both me and the Trivia-going folk of Whyville. If I get positive feedback in the BBS and in my Y-mail, I'll post a schedule in my City Records. In the meantime, we'll wait and see!

Just in case you don't want to do this unofficial Trivia Hour, I've set up some questions for you to answer, for, well, no apparent reason. Every correct answer gets 5 clams from me.

1. Which two elements make up water ?

2. What is the pirate's flag with the skull and cross-bones called ?

3.. What do British call what Americans call a "faucet"?

4. Out of chimps, baboons and gorillas, which has a tail?

5. If I was talking about "The Madden Twins", what band would I most likely be talking about?

6. What is the full name for the shop, in Whyville, that sells projectiles?

7. There has only been one Senator in Whyville whose name has started with a vowel. Who is this?

8. Is the number "pi" an a) rational, or b) irrational number?

9. Which continent does Turkey belong to?

10. Did the Vikings invade England in the a) Dark Ages b) Middle Ages or c) Viking Ages?

If you didn't like my idea, I hope you liked answering my questions. If they've created any uncertainty, ask 'em in the BBS, and yes, I believe I'd be up to the responsibility of holding the Hour.

This is Cobd....
