ST The New and Even More Improved 2018 ST Trivia Extravaganza!

Last call for trivia. Just a reminder that tonight is an illumination Sunday. Anyone with four points or more will be moving on. I will keep things open for another two hours for any stragglers to come in with answers. After that I’ll be announcing who moves on. I will also be giving you next weeks question.

 

Welcome to Elimination Sunday!

Quickest way to earn points was to answer! Congrats to everyone who has scored 4 or 5 points in round one. To those who have been eliminated, thanks for playing.

Last week's question was the following:

What was the name of the Master Codebreaker's companion?

She went by the name "Lovey."


So those moving on are the following:

@cubman987 4
@Master of None 5
@Guidman 5
@Eeyore freak 4
@Ricardo Funes 5
@Jedi Master Scorpio 5
@Xrys T'Ala 5
@CrazyOldJedi 5
@ExplosivEwok 5
@nightangel 5
@Jedi Knight Fett 5
@Jordan1Kenobi 4

Please note that there as a typo last week with @CrazyOldJedi. The score for COJ should have been 4, not 3. That was a typo from me.

Everyone else has 3 or less points. There is a redemption round for those eliminated in Round 3 (See the rules on page 1) If not, Thanks again for playing! I hope you return for future trivia contests.

 

I actually have 4 points.

 

Was in the process of adding you back in. Victim of the cut and paste! Sorry about that!

 

ROUND TWO: Slightly harder questions and this round will contain a twist. Along with answering the questions you will also be required to risk a certain amount of your points. A maximum of three points and a minimum of one. You answer correctly and you will receive the points you gambled but if you answer incorrectly you will lose them. If at any point you have no points left to risk for the next question you will be eliminated... for now. Users with twelve points or more will advance to the final round.


So let's start off with the first question of round two: the dreaded fill in the blank quote:

What is the quote and who said it?

"A ___ ___ ___ properly ____ , ___ ____a ____ ____."

Don't forget to place your bet in your post to me.​

See you next Monday, Trivia Monsters.

 

You have too many blanks

 

Correction to the Trivia (Sorry gang, I really need to stop setting trivia up on my phone and use a laptop.)

I had ONE TOO MANY BLANKS in the quote. Below is the proper spacing of the blanks.

For those who have answered (there are two of you) you are correct. For the rest of you, please use the blow CORRECT question:

What is the quote and who said it?

-------------> "A ___ ___ properly ____ , ___ ____a ____ ____."

A cur’s weakness properly manipulated, can be a sharp tool

Don't forget to place your bet in your post to me.​

and @CrazyOldJedi you have a good eye. And send me your official answer!

@Birkendoc Lol, you need to take a rest....

..and think of a new question.

 

Mother pus bucket. This is not my day. Beginning to wonder if I can screw this question up even more?

The answer is yes, shockingly enough.

Attention everyone:

@cubman987
@Master of None
@Guidman
@Eeyore freak
@Ricardo Funes
@Jedi Master Scorpio
@Xrys T'Ala
@CrazyOldJedi
@ExplosivEwok
@nightangel
@Jedi Knight Fett
@Jordan1Kenobi


I am screwing up left and right and sincerely apologize, especially to those who already answered. You can see my screw up as per above. I need to start over with a new question. Will be a fill in the blank with the same level of difficulty, but as you can see when I was double checking, I inserted the quote.

Whoops.

So we're starting fresh with a new quote: who said it and what is the quote:

____ going ___ ____ this ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ we ___, ____ ____ what ___ ___.​

Don't forget to bet points.

I swear to god, If I mess this up again....

 

and I screwed it up...so new question

 

I liked the first quote better

This week’s question:

Answer sent.

There are two permutations of this quote floating around the internet. Everyone who answered the question was correct with the one cited at IMDB:

We're going to win this war not by fighting what we hate, but saving what we love.

I would have accepted the other permutation that is floating out there. (That's how we're gonna win...) had anyone challenged. When looking for the quote on the internet, the first permutation comes up about as equally as the second.
