Name that date game

[Will9]

Instead of posting on my other thread I'd prefer to do this. Here is how it will work, someone posts an event and then the person who gets the date it happened on posts the next event.

Here is the first event:

Octavian is given the title Augustus by the Senate.

[Wernazuma III]

28BC

[Will9]

The day of year too.

BTW thats wrong.

[Ecthy]

31 BC, days are irrelevant

[Gangerolf]

very easy to cheat (google) in this game... not that I would do that of course

[Addled Platypus]

military time as well

[Ecthy]

We should have a geenral history quiz rather than this boring thing. It should be merged with the other quiz going on at the moment.

[Will9]

Still incorrect.

This game will be to easy for cheaters if we don't require the day.

If you require the day, nobody will ever get the answer.

27 BC but it's a boring kind of quiz.

[Will9]

27BC is correct, but noone seems to want to do the day on this one so go ahead Etchy.

[Ecthy]

Sulla gets elected consul for the first time

[Will9]

88BC. I think the day was January 1.

[Ecthy]

Elections always took place the year before, so he was elected in 89. Go ahead.

Sneaky.

I support a general quiz. Dates suck and are not important.
