The Quiz countdown....

[EricDent]

I posted an Anime quiz on Nov. 15th which is over 1 week ago. You now have exactly 2 weeks to turn in the quiz.

Please participate in the quiz, maybe it will help this board's lack of interest if we get a good response from the quiz.

Maybe it will spark interest in the shows, that I chose and begin some actual disscussion on this board.

Even if you decide not to watch these shows, you might learn something.

I realize that there are tons of younger people on this board, who only watch certain shows, what I am attempting to do is to broaden your anime horizons by introducing new shows into your "vocabulary" of anime. I have slowly over the years attempted to stray a bit off the path of comedy anime (mostly Harem) that I normally would buy, into the realm of several genres and categories.

So once again, please help out by at least attempting the quiz.

In about a week, I might be nice & give you some hints.

But, for now, the clock is constantly ticking away. And if you don't fill out a quiz, I might just have to sick Ryuk on you.:haha:

[EricDent]

So after another week, still no quizes??? What is up with that? This quiz is truly not that hard to answer. If you need hints for the questions, then I guess I will give you some. Please do the quiz!

1: If you don't know this one, watch pretty much any Macross show to find out that there race name starts with the last letter of the alphabet.
2: It is hinted at several times in the show & the manga that they are more than just acquaintances.
3: Come on! This one is so easy even a rose bush should know it.
4: It's another teacher that Negi takes over for.
5: She is Ryoko's "sister", and also turns into a spaceship.
6: It is discussed near the end of the series, that she is somehow related to him.
7: He has a name, but he also uses a "codename" as his moniker.
8: He is featured as a bad guy in the 2 seasons that aired on TV, and his followers chanted his name a lot.
9: It has to do something with what a gun uses.
10: Well it's not "Scrapped Princess" that is a given. Her first name sounds like a certain ocean, and her last is the same as her guardians.
11: It's Agito's "Boss" and I want his name.
12: Hint her last name sounds like a fun game where you "Roll up stuff" to make a giant ball of junk. Her first name sounds like a combination of a word used to describe a male, and a famous "rhino" clothing line.
13: Hint it has something to do with their mother.
14: He was on Saturday Night Live as Frank Sinatra, and many, many, many other characters. He also passed away before his time.
15: Go & read some Norse mythology for this one.
16: Hint it's why she is called "Cat-Girl".
17: Bruce Lee's fighting method.
18: She dies in the same episode that she shows him where it is. She uses a nickname that could be a bit of a paradox.
19: Hint it has to do something with her codename.
20: It also starts with the letter "H" and it's not Hanabashi.

Hopefully those will get you going, if not just look on Wikipedia or something for the shows.

Remeber please Private Message the answers to me, do NOT answer them here.

I would have tried this Quiz, if it wasn't for the fact I haven't watched half of those animes -.-

[EricDent]

Um, that's the main reason I did the quiz, so you guys could research the shows, and maybe if they sounded interesting, then you would watch them.

BTW, if you folks see any "weird" topics on this board, please tell Tim about them. Especially any advertisements, lewd pictures, or other questionable content.

[EricDent]

OK, so less than a week to go, and still no one has even tried the quiz?

What do I have to do? Give you the answers?

[SpiritOfFire]

As you've already heard, most of the shows have not been seen, and they're too old for someone like me to care.

I'll give it a try, at some point, though.

[EricDent]

So you think the shows are old?

SDF Macross ran from 1982-1983 (ok this is old)
Love Hina ran in 2000 (not that old)
Trigun ran in 1998 (not that old)
Negima ran in 2005 (not old at all)
Tenchi ran in several periods from 1992-2005 (so it is a bit old)
Abenobashi ran in 2002 (not old)
Gatchaman ran in 1972-1974 (yeah that is pretty darn old)
Space Battleship Yamato (Star Blazers) ran in 1974-1975 (yep pretty darn old)
S-Cry-Ed ran in 2001 (not that old)
Scrapped Princess ran in 2003 (not old)
Guyver (at least the one I am talking about) ran in 2005-2006 (not old at all)
Pani Poni Dash ran in 2005 (so not old)
Totoro was in 1988 (so it is kinda old)
Kiki's Delivery Service was in 1989 (so also kinda old)
Loki Ragnarok ran in 2003 (so not that old)
Nuku Nuku was in 1992, and again in 1998 (so not that old)
Cowboy Bebop ran 1998-1999 (so not that old, plus it totally rocks)
Outlaw Star was also in 1998 (so not that old)
Read or Die was in 2001 (not that old)
Ai Yori Aoshi was from 2002-2003 (not that old)

Of course I could be wrong to think that they are not all that old...

[EricDent]

OK, now it is Christmas Eve, and not one person even bothered attempting the quiz.

I gave you plenty of time to determine what shows the questions would be about, and no one objected the shows the way I asked, so I put the questions up.

I gave you plenty of time to do some research on the shows, which most of the info could be found on several sites on the internet.

I even extended the quiz due date to Christmas to let people who did not see it have extra time.

I gave hints, gave multiple choice answers, and pretty much gave away most of the answers with the choices.

So why the heck did no one even try a quiz?

I give up! Someone else can do this stuff!
