    Hello, JCF and welcome to the sixth (I think) round of PT Trivia and the first to be hosted by me! Big thanks to Bazinga'd and heels1785 for allowing me to take up the torch. It's a great honour!

    Newcomers and vets alike are welcome to join! Last round, Darth Chiznuk had set up a pretty big new system for the tournament. However, as this is my first go, we'll be sticking to a somewhat modified form of an earlier format. As for future games - wait and see ;)

    Now, as for the game itself:

    QUESTIONS:
    There are a total of 15 questions. From question #1 through #15, it will be going from easy to hard.

    As with the last few games, I’ll be alternating between Sundays and Wednesdays for Question Days. Answers & Points will be given at 5 PM EST – this is your deadline. However, if I’m late by a day or two due to things going on in life, lucky you, you've got a bit more time to answer if you need and I’ll post the next question on the following Sunday or Wednesday. If you have not sent your answer with 24 hours left to the deadline, I will send you a PM to remind you.
    For questions 1-5 (
    Easy) - You will be given four days (the first question is posted on a Sunday, then questions alternate from Sunday and Wednesday). On the respective deadline day of the same week, question answers will be posted and points will be given. After that, a new question will be given.
    Eliminations should occur following these first 5 questions.
    For questions 6-10 (
    Medium) - Format is exactly the same, but there will be no eliminations this round.
    For questions 11-15 (
    Hard) – Format is exactly the same. What's next? Please see Eliminations, Possible Outcomes & Playoffs below.

    Questions 1-5 are worth
    1 point per question.
    Questions 6-10 are worth
    2 points per question.
    Questions 11-15 will be determined via a number generator (
    3 points max)
    Possible Bonus Questions will be worth
    1 Point

    ELIMINATIONS, POSSIBLE OUTCOMES & PLAYOFFS
    After the first 5 questions, anyone under 4 points will be eliminated. There is a pattern for the next 2 rounds as well. Anyone under 12 points following Round 2 is eliminated. Anyone under 16 points after the 3rd Round is eliminated.
    Whoever has the highest amount of points following the 3rd round is the winner!

    If everyone but one is eliminated by the 3rd round (say we are on Question 10, as an example), the last one standing will be winner by default. Consider yourself the victor.
    What if there's more than one person standing after the third round? We will then enter a "playoff." The rules will be explained at that time.


    SIDE NOTE: If you feel the need to contest an answer, you are free to do so. If you and the game host (me) are unable to come to an agreement, the final word falls to Bazinga'd and heels1785.

    Winner of the Game earns VIP honours (colours) for one week.

    GAME RULES:
    SEND ME YOUR ANSWERS! DON'T POST THEM IN THIS THREAD!
    Self-explanatory, obviously. Be careful not to do so, otherwise you'll be immediately disqualified. If you accidentally submitted your answer in this thread, I'll let Bazinga'd or heels1785 know. Also: I would prefer you keep to one single PM (NOT the original PM sent to all players) when sending answers, buuuuut as I myself sort of forgot that rule every time I played, it’s not a necessity. :p
    CHEATING
    If you download anything illegal, that's basically cheating. Cheating =/= looking at your sources, whether it’s a DVD, book, source book, or online. Again, this is the internet and we’re not face-to-face. (See Rules #1 and #2 below)
    EU/Legends
    As said above, all questions will be about the PT only -- films and perhaps its novelizations. I will not post any EU questions and that includes TCW (between AOTC and ROTS only. Clone Wars events depicted in the films might appear).
    As a rule of thumb, except to see questions relating to:
    - The Phantom Menace
    - Attack of the Clones
    - Revenge of the Sith
    - Behind the scenes of the films. This includes information from scripts, interviews, or various other things going into the making of the PT
    Any questions or comments could be posted in this thread. I have it watched so I'll be able to answer your question/comment ASAP.
    These rules may change at any time. I'll notify everyone in this thread.


    RULES IN A NUTSHELL:
    1. Since this is not occurring face-to-face and since this is ALL ONLINE, honestly it’s up to you if you want to use Wookieepedia as a source (or Google).
    2. Use what you have! DVD/BR, novels, source books, etc all can be used.
    3. Adhere to the rules of cheating. Any discussion of torrents or illegal downloads are prohibited. If you’re caught discussing this, you will be eliminated and will be reported. Forum rules still apply.
    4. Please follow "Questions, Elimination Guidelines." The information will help you!
    5. You may not post your answer in this thread. Should this occur, I will ask Bazinga'd or heels1785 to delete the post. Send your answer in a PM to me!
    6. Optional, but convenient: Once you've submitted an answer via PM, you can let me know by replying to this thread. Saying "Answer sent" or any variation thereof will suffice.

    As we've reached the original date for the game's beginning and do not yet have 10 players, I'm extending it to Wednesday.
