Rules:

There will be 10 rounds. In each round I shall post TWO or more questions. There will be an easy question worth 1 point or more, and a hard question worth twice as much. You must answer only ONE of these questions (unless its a multiple-point question, then answer as many as you can) and PM the answer to me. You will have 84 hours from when the question is posted to get your answer to me. Two questions per week for hopefully a 5 week game.


If you do not answer a question, you will simply get 0 points that round. THERE ARE NO GAME BANS!!
The player with the most points after 10 rounds wins.

There are no limits to the number of players, and anyone can answer any round. (although after the first couple of rounds, it may be completely pointless, heh)

Round one answers:

The one point question:
Q. What is the name of the planet that Princess Leia claimed the rebel base was on in Star Wars, A New Hope?
A. Dantooine.

The two point question:
I thought this may be a good tricky question some would get caught on, because Wookiepedia has no real definative source for it, ie [source ?], and that answer, as is, wouldnt have counted.

Q. What is the effective firing range of the Death Star's superlaser?

A. My answer was : The effective range of the superlaser weapon is 47,060,000km (about 157 light-seconds) per Star Wars: Blueprints - The Ultimate Collection. Its listed on the back of the Death Star poster.
also in the TFN reference : http://www.theforce.net/swtc/ds/index.html

But there is also this:

Effective Firing Range: 380,000 km; Maximum Firing Range 420,000 km (Source: The New Essential Guide to Weapons and Technology)

So with 2 official Lucas publications giving 2 completely different answers, Ill have to give points to both answers. I guess the huge difference may be in the definition of firing range on what size object, heh.


Points for round one:

halibut - 2
Oldbenk31 - 2
Dirk_Loechel - 0
Liliedhe - 1
JediGunship - 1
JeedaiElf - 2
aesium - 1
Evil_King_Wiggins - 2
Serafine - 0
DarthDragon164 - 2
AltheJedi - 0
X-Factor - 1
Dark_Jedi_Kenobi - 0
ScruffyCorellian - 0
DarthCaedus1138 - 0


Round 2 Questions:

The one point question:
Question: What canyon did Luke claim the Death Star trench resembled?


The two point question:
Question: Name this mystery character from the CT:
His assigned task from Jabba was to provoke the local Sandpeople into attacking nearby Tatooinian settlers, by telling various lies about them and supplying the Tuskens with weapons. The resulting skirmishes between the Tuskens and settlers kept the Tatooine authorities busy, and unable to focus on Jabba the Hutt's dealings. His big claim to fame in the CT is that he physically injured Luke Skywalker on screen. Full name, please.
