Looks like there's a few of us finding ways to keep interest high now that the first round of the Cell is almost over. Be sure to cast your vote in Dissinger's Theme Song Thread (http://www.althanas.com/world/showthread.php?26024-New-Game!-Pick-the-theme-song-for-each-Cell-Chamber), some great tunes have already been put forward!

Way back in the day, we used to play little games of Althanas trivia sometimes. We had a thread going where anyone could post a question or riddle to which the answer was an Althanas thread. Since the Ella Chamber is the only one still going, I'm going to provide 6 questions - one on each of the writers featured in the Ella Chamber.

I'm also planning to host a post-Cell party at The Flesh Failures, which will have all sorts of fun shenanigans tied into it. Here's the kicker: The FIRST correct responder to each question will receive a door prize of 100GP from my account at the afterparty. If you get all the questions right first, that's 600GP in your pocket!

Ella Chamber participants can take part in this challenge, but cannot answer the question pertaining to their character. If no one has gotten all the right answers by the time Ella concludes, the person with the best answer wins! You must provide thread names w/hyperlinks or your post may not count. The answers are all IC threads, but not necessarily completed or archived ones.

Tip: If you can't find the thread you're looking for quickly, move to the next question and circle back later! They're all of equal value, and some may be more difficult than others.

1. In which thread does Grond the Zombie discover it takes 2 days for his victims to become fully zombified?
Let the Apocalypse Begin (http://www.althanas.com/world/showthread.php?25641-Let-the-Apocalypse-Begin-(Closed)&highlight=grond) (Amber Eyes)

2. In which thread does Reine the round-bottomed burglar of Underwood write alongside Concordia's most prolific, quick-crested bandit?
Rapture and Retribution (http://www.althanas.com/world/showthread.php?19286-Rapture-and-Retribution) (Roht Mirage)

3. Which thread featuring Black Shadow begins with the archer being held up at swordpoint?
They Never Learn (http://www.althanas.com/world/showthread.php?25774-They-never-learn-(solo)&p=211488&highlight=#post211488) (Amber Eyes)

4. In which thread does Flint Skovic (Warpath) single-handedly bust up three Akashiman toughs?
Building Dynasties (http://www.althanas.com/world/showthread.php?24638-Building-Dynasties) (Roht Mirage)

5. In which thread does Astarelle (Roht Mirage) narrowly stop her sister from breaking a clay pot?

6. In which thread is Joshua Cronen first referred to by the nickname "Breaker"?
Sex, Drugs, and Violence: The Flesh Failures (http://www.althanas.com/world/showthread.php?6877-Sex-Drugs-and-Violence-The-Flesh-Failures) (Amber Eyes)

Winnings
Amber: 300 GP
Roht: 200 GP

Only one question left in this round!

Double post because I changed the rules to make it more inclusive: Instead of a 600GP grand prize for getting all the right answers, each question is now worth 100GP individually. This means Ella Chamber combatants can attempt to answer the 5 questions not pertaining to them. But if you're quick and clever, you could still pocket the full amount!

Just a note...I'm not super confident on number two...I actually thought of someone else when I saw the question but couldn't find a joint thread for those two.

Amber Eyes increases her purse to 200GP, and Roht Mirage swipes the last hundred from under her nose. Well done!

Only three questions left... I hope they're more challenging!

Well done both! I knew that one would be tricky Amber... congrats on getting it today!

Looks like #5 is the only one left... Roht Mirage is the most mysterious character in the Ella Chamber!


edit: I've added the answers and prize tallies to the first post.

Note: I will most likely do another round of trivia once this one is completed. If you're registered in the Cell and you'd like to be featured, shoot me a PM with a link and clue idea!

Also Note: Although the questions are going to be about Cell participants, ALL Althanas members will be invited to the afterparty, therefore anyone can answer the questions. Just wanted to make that clear, since right now two tourny participants are taking all my money :P

Sorry guys, I only got 1 pm with a question suggestion and I'm a bit too busy overall right now to work a bunch up myself. Althanas Trivia will resume ASAP!
