Great job everyone. It was a whacky ten rounds, with a few good uses of people's items to throw a monkey wrench or two into the middle of things. I'm thinking of taking things in a new direction, although right now I'm working on a couple of things, these plus school and work don't add up to a lot of time on my hands. I'm sure people noticed my activity in the thread was a tad fleeting. Despite the challenges, I'm excited to try something new with the thread. For now, though, I'm going to leave it to you guys for a few days. I'll have HotRod's awesome banner ready in a day or two. Oh yeah, and astromech gets the thermal detonator back. It didn't work out the way I thought.
Try to stump each other. Basic rules for asking a question are as follows:
1) The prequels don't exist. The special editions don't exist. Although, if you want to throw in a little PT satire within your questions, that's okay, for example: "Who played Anakin Skywalker before he was decapitated and Hayden Christenson's head was haphazardly CGI-glued to his body?" Just make sure all answers are restricted to OUT knowledge.
2) Keep the focus on the films themselves, not a whole bunch of EU stuff, although some leaning into more esoteric knowledge is okay. A good example of an EU-ish question that would be allowed is "what are the ugly creatures that run the carbon freeze thingy". Although the answer is not available by simply watching the films, it's okay because the script probably holds the answer, or the answer is not completely restricted to the world outside the movies. Also, questions about production/early drafts are also okay, like "what physicist were Yoda's eyes based on". Again, questions are not exactly constricted to only the movies themselves, but not too much EU stuff, please.
3) You're working for points here, but you're not exactly competing, not officially anyway, not yet. Don't ask impossible questions in the hopes of getting the most points. You want everyone to have a lot of points. Be tough, really test people's knowledge.
4) Each question is worth three points.
5) sHotRod starts.
6) Don't go up and use items or something, btw you all still have your items. You'll need them later.
