ST The New and Improved 2017 ST Trivia Extravaganza Thread

what was unique about TLJ had it been released on the original release date?

1. it would've been the only time two star wars movies were released within the same 365-year time frame (not calendar year)

Or

It would've been the 40th anniversary of the release of ANH

 

I just read all 14 pages in about an hour.

8+ months, condensed. Like blowing through a season of a show in one sitting. Or like time-travel. There are periods of my past for which this luxury would've been a blessing.

I demand answers:

- What is the one thing a suchandsuch freighter can't do?

- Why does Aaron Rogers have a Jedi Robe, how do you know this and is there any photographic proof?

 

Thanks Birk! I'm guessing the one you were thinking of was the 40th anniversary.

MotherNature's SilverSeed, this trivia is madness. The one thing suchandsuch freighter can't do is enter atmosphere (technically, it's not designed to enter atmosphere, but close enough). No idea about Jedi Aaron Rodgers; Google it. Be sure to sign up for the next ST trivia! Hopefully in January after TLJ!

 

I can field the Jedi Aaron Rodgers thing as the Packers are my other passion.

yes there is photographic proof. Rodgers (for those of you who don't know is the quarterback of the Green Bay Packers) is a hardcore Star Wars fan. He's made silly videos of himself dressed up as a Jedi, and his avatar over at Instagram is a cartoon of him that someone drew in full Jedi gear.

Which makes my quarterback extra special awesome. Help me Obi-Aaron Kenobi, you're our only hope (to win in February!)

 

Okay, so this is Thunderdome or something. It's bet your points time. I'll be honest, the last time I kept score everyone but Dark Angel had 24 points and she had 23. Everyone earned the same amount of points, so let's just leave it at the following:

@BenYodaDagobah: 24 points
@CrazyOldJedi: 24
@Dark Angel: 23

YOU GET TO BET AS MANY POINTS AS YOU HAVE IF YOU GET THIS QUESTION CORRECT!

Omg can one we put this never ending trivia fiasco to bed this week. I swear, you are all worse than Zombie Cockroaches. At least zombies I can stab in the head and they are POOF gone!

So after consulting with the clever and equally sick of this round of trivia Darth Chiznuk, we're playing it this way:

You have until WEDNESDAY to answer this question (yes, it's not quite a week, but anyone remaining will have to BET POINTS later). But here's the kicker. You can bet 0 to your total number of points. BUT (silly, evil Chiznuk I love you)...

You have to bet points before I give you the final, final, final question.

Makes sense?

 

I'm Nightangel and not Dark Angel Birkendoc.

 

so sorry, had a brainfart when I was writing the post. my apologies.

You hush, darth dork

wow, there really is a darth dork. Go figure.

 

Hahahaha. These last few posts are the best.

Thanks for keeping this going Birk! As much as I'm gonna hate saying this, thanks Chiznuk... I guess... for now.

 

Answer sent!

 

Hello Trivia Monkeys!

We have eliminated a player and now it is down to just BenYodaDagobah and CrazyOldJedi. Thanks for the last nine months of your life the great competition nightangel!

The answer to last week's question was Gary Oldman.

For the two remaining contestants, submit how many points you will be betting. Do it publicly here. Once you have both bet points, I will give the second half of the question!

always losing in the end. but good luck to both remaining participants.

 

But your run was amazing! Had fun bouncing trivia around with you. Will be starting a new trivia game at the beginning of 2018, and I hope you return!

 

Thanks nightangel You're the lucky one. We have to deal with more trivia. In all seriousness, it's been fun having you here and following your posts because there's absolutely no chance I can keep up with you in any other thread.

 

You did great! I hope you had fun

 

It has been fun and I'm really sorry to see you go . Wouldn't it be sad if the final question is all about Luke....

 

are you two trivia dorks going to publicly bet you points or what?

 

Oh.....you waiting for us?


Ho hum, er, let's kill this one way or another.

24 points.....and my shirt.

 

For the record BenYodaDagobah also bet 24 points in his DM to me. I'm not waiting. I want to get this question going:

Answer to the first part:

his actor has been close to securing a role in a Star Wars film twice but has yet to do so. Name the actor. Answer: Gary Oldman.

-------> So the follow up: What two parts was he in the running for?

 

Answer sent. I bet all the points.

 

And we have a tie:

The answer to Which two roles were almost Gary Oldman's but were never quite his?

The voice of General Grievious and Lor San Tekka.

Kind of glad Kylo didn't kill off Sirius Black.

Which means we have a tie. Again.

@BenYodaDagobah and CrazyOldJedi, what do you two want to do?

Another round or do you want to call it a draw?

 

Unless any former contestants or mods want to submit any questions, I'm ok with a tie. You've certainly done more than enough to keep this going.
