[Ecthy]

Is he still on rainbow hunt?

[Ecthy]

I might give the solutions to the questions away shortly

bump

[DarkCloud]

On page 3, provost harrison aced it with the exception of Chasing Rainbows.

End is forefver gets credit for listing DL's (I didn't even know about them!) but he left out Dookie's change back to dookie, so PH gets the most points

Full list:

Stewart Spink
Guybrush - his first attempt at going undercover
Neonz - he played a Diplomacy game under this name
Napoleon & The Pigs - his attempt at another "open" login after Old Major was restricted
Nimrod
Dookie
Warning:
Dookie
Chasing Rainbows
Infatuation
Boddington's

AND for Ron Jeremy:

Trappist
Kafka's **** (now restricted I think- wasn't this a DL?)
Lazarus and the Gimp
Bugs ******* Bunny
Ron Jeremy

Provost gets points for that one.

For #2 Colon via Dominikos
No one got that one completely I don't see how oh well

I think #3 for the bonus was Snapcase, although I'm not sure???


-

I never knew Laz had an asterisk name before BFB

or was that a name that was not asteriskised back then?

It wasn't astreisked It lasted a VERY short time

[Ecthy]

DC, someone got that Dominikos and Colon thing right

Re: The Apolyton Quiz (for the not so ancients)

1. The title of the hero Warrax in the game Master of Magic (this is actually a poster's former name)

Chaos Warrior, a former handle of mine. My AIM name WarraxCW is related to that.

2. Who knows what this biochemist would be like without his infamous eternal celibacy problem

(extra point if you can tell the place where he studied)

PH, Oxford. I knew the wording was odd, but most got it right.

3. South American poster with the highest post count, out of your head, without peeking

El Awrence, formerly Hodad.

4. The place where Ecthelion lives. Extra point if you can tell the distance to his country's capital, without peeking

Cottbus, 100 km... "an hour" was correct, most other answers were wrong. 80 miles is too much, 80km is not enough.

5. A Greek in NYC

Chris62 / cpoulos was meant here, if you could come up with another one, fine

6. A Kiwi in NYC

Caligastia

7. Month and year when they met up

I have no idea, and noone else knew it, but I know they did, at some point.

8. Count 3 sort of OT-famous Greeks (yes, that's right, 3)

Greece living Greeks were to be found. Axi, MarkG, Paiktis22 as an example, others ain't famous

9. Which of the Israeli posters (that are actually sort of well-known) is not a migrant from the former USSR?

Eli, Taurus, Siro, Dal are all migrants from the USSR. Siro, the ones you counted are merely unknown guys. So Yoav was the right answer.

I could tell you all the places in the USSR were the other guys lived, but that'd be against privacy morals

10. Israeli poster with the highest post count. Thinks that "might makes right"

Eli, the muthafooka

11. Approximately how many Finns registered (and posted in the OT) since Laz' infamous anti-Finn thread?

yeah, must have been like that

12. How many Israelis does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

some cool answers were given here

13. How many Finns does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

not so cool answers here

14. How many people got banned in Black Saturday.

umh, some nice estimations done there, but don't ask me

15. How many lists has DarkCloud created so far?

some nice answers to this one, but also some lesser nice ones

16. Give the names of at least 2 posters that keep loads of pictures of Apolytoners for whatever reasons.

there'd be Siro, Ecth, Orange as the main ones, I wouldn't know if Stefu or red_jon actually do that?

17. Regular OT poster that had a Slayer song title as a username?

Dissident Agressor

18. What's his handle nowadays?

Dissident

19. Poster that created the "MP inside joke" that made Ming use that avatar icon?

war4ever

20. Who was the last non-English and non-American poster to meet Provost Harrison?

Taurus, in August of 2001. PH met me and the Dutchies in April of the same year.

21. Poster that has posted the most pictures of himself?

red_jon

22. Who is #2 in that regard?

Asher

23. Who is only #3 but gets mocked for allegedly being #1 by the latter 2 guys?

Giancarlo

24. Who could also be one of those first 3 nowadays but I haven't actually counted?

Siro

note: any permutations of these names for the last questions were counted

25. Name the city where most Israeli (regular or ex-regular) posters are from? No peeking. Quick guess.

Haifa... Ashdod was the silliest guess imaginable

26. What was the former name of the user whose glory faded away after 9-11?

[Solver]

Strongly OT questions . Now, what about real questions about on-topic? Anyone answer?

[red_jon]

LOL, I think my name appears around 600 times in this thread

I actually think Asher is no.1 - it's easier for him to take pictures. The Stupid Whore dumps the blame on me though

And I don't have many pics of other posters - the only ones I have are Giancarlo, Asher, Hobbes and Mr. Harrison

[Adalbertus]

Sorry, cannot resist: What ... errm ... feature is Cottbus most famous for? No, it's not Ecthelion. No native German speakers please, 'cause I'm sure you know.
