Yep, HotRod, that was all about you.  The thought of you whipping us all in round 2... I can't breathe.  I'm haunted by the points they should never have given me.  Hoping that those points don't become a scar.  *sobs uncontrollably*  It's all HotRod's fault!  He's jealous!  He's holding me back!!!

(It's been a loooong day)

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

I fully intend to overtake both of ya! :p (probably not, but I might as well expand the rivalry! haha)

Hey, I'm letting something encode right now, which says it has another 20 hours left, so before the winner of game one is officially crowned, and before we start game two, I'm posting a real quick...

I'm not entirely sure myself, waiting on clarification.

This being a star wars realm I assume that's what Grandmaster Paulisdead2221 was referring to.

ANH SE that is.

Actually, that's exactly right!

Damn you for getting there before me.  ^_~

Two - they had to carry / drag him.

A Goon in a Gaggle of 'em

one for the head, another to finish off the majority of the body and one more to catch the loose hand, so I'm thinking 3...

Chewbacca. He was the decoy.

Damn also got here too late.

What? He shot at Solo too. And just once...I think?

 

Shit,  I need to watch these films all the way through sometime. It's been a while. Keep having to play back "the robot dinosaurs" part of the film. My son loves it.

 

Actually, I gave him his first Star Wars figures yesterday. Was a joyous moment. Especially his "wooow" at the creature thing that looks like a dinosaur from Attack of the Clones. A Reek I think, who cares. His face was a picture. Gave him Vader and Luke from the Bespin Duel. Luke has a removable hand. How fucking cool is that! Ha! Espcially as he likes to chop me up with his lightsaber, and keeps chopping my hand off. Is that wrong for a three and a half year old to do that? Still have a whole bag full to give him. Let's see how these go down first.

 

Sorry, strayed there!

Kenobi and Leia.

 

Are points from previous rounds to carry over in any way, shape or form? or disregarded once a winner is established for each round? - just curious

You know, I really like the new action figures that have come out for the OT.  I wish they would have had them when I was a kid.  I grew up in the 90s, when Star Wars was still super badass.  We had Micromachines, which were tight as hell, and Shadows of the Empire was brand new, but some of the simplified, more character driven action figure collections that have been put out have really impressed me too.  When did the Luke with removable hand come out? NO POINTS

Good question, points from previous games are disregarded for the next game, although they are kept on record for later, when the rules start changing.

 

SCOREBOARD [PART II] (UPDATED AT BEGINNING OF EACH ROUND):

astromech 5 POINTS

Gaffer Tape 5 POINTS

Mielr 4 POINTS

Johnny Ringo 3 POINTS/1 Invincibility Star

Bkev 1 POINT

HotRod 1 POINT

 

Alright, so when you get a special item, you have to post that you want to use it, and it goes into effect for the next round I post.  I'll explain what they do when somebody picks them up.  Inspiration for special items comes mostly from Star Wars themed items that have shown up throughout the trilogy, although many items familiar to the Mario Kart or Super Smash Bros games will show up to.

The invincibility star makes one impervious to being wrong for one round.  It can also protect one from other players items when they are utilized.

 

ROUND 2

What prevented the Falcon from getting a reading on the second Death Star's deflector shield? 1 Landmine [Moth3r]

What did George Lucas say he came up with to "give the Jedi some kind of individuality"? 1 POINT [mielr]

What alien language was created by combining African and South Pacific dialects? 2 POINTS [bkev]

What part of a spaceship do mynocks like to munch? 3 POINTS [see you auntie]

Who ordered the shield doors of the Rebels' Hoth base closed for the night? 4 POINTS [HotRod]

What is another name for the spearlike "gaffi stick" the Sand People wield? 6 POINTS [astromech]

The proper name for the Gaffi Stick is the Gaderffii Stick...I'm hoping that's what the other name is!

Yeah I read the question wrong. I read it as first not once.

Wait, Does that mean i can now reply incorrectly to a 6 point question and still get the points? - kinda devious. Alos would one still have to get in 'first' to activate it or say, could I answer an already answered question?

Re: accumulated points, Yeah i was sorta thinking more in terms of 'later on' rather than a rund to round thing.

Will there be ofensive powerups as well, ie: leach some points from another player? - just curious.

 

What alien language was created by combining African and South Pacific dialects? 2 POINTS

gonna take a stab and say Sullustan. - i Think that's right, That's what nien nunb is right? [sp?]

- not wishing to use the invincibility star at this time ;) - i CAN save it for another round within part II right?

EDIT: just re-read, If I HAVE to use the powerup now then so be it. Please clarify, Thanks.

I think I bought those figures around the time of Attack of the Clones.

I went into my parents loft and found so much I forgotten I'd had. Not sure whether to give him all of the figures or not.

 

 

 

 

But one thing's for sure. None of my kids will be having my original Kenner figures from 78 - 85...No waaaay!
