Much like the beginning of Final Fantasy VI, it had a dark and cold beginning, but people came in and it picked up, but as for the RPs, Firenaut rearranged the RP Goddess Statues and caused the competition to be destroyed in the Aftermath. However in the World of SPs, it was a heated battle where Firenaut and Queuedub clashed back and forth, but at the end, Queuedub blasted him away with Ultima, making him the Trivia Wannabe! And here are the results!

Regular points:
Firenaut - 13

Silly points:
Queuedub - 10
Firenaut - 8
Lzr. - 6
Jeremy - 4
Mike - 2
Hampus - 1

On behalf of everyone in Trivia, I'd like to thank all participants for making it a fun evening. We look forward to seeing you at the next trivia event!

After what has seemed like forever, Star Wars Trivia has returned, and it wasn't completely random like last month! My Trivial Pursuit game got a rest this time around. Also, it was quite nice to have an assistant and not have to keep track of both types of points.
There isn't much to say about the real points. Other than a few points that went to other people and a few questions that didn't get answered correctly, Hobbie completely and utterly dominated.
People had a tough time getting Richard to crack a smile, people managed to get some points there. There were some interesting answers regarding the pancake side of the Force and Quinlan Vos' son being the opposite of Anakin (he had a father, but no mother). In the end, Trivia's very own Soka got the title!
The Empire has told me they're about to start a communications shutdown, so I have to speed things up:

Regular points:
Hobbie: -7728440245 16
Radman: 1
Hampus: 1
Soka: 1

Silly points:
Soka: 5
Hampus: 4
Hobbie: 2
Radman: 2
JC: 1

    A time change in the United States meant Trivia started kind of slow today, but once it got started everyone had a lot of fun. Lzrman pulled to an early lead but Korny decided to make a match of it for a time. There were a few contenders in the end, but Lzrman had other plans to end a 4 year Trek Trivia Title drought. Silly Points were just as competitive. Enough from me, here are the results:

    Regular points:
    Lzrman - 8
    Firenaut Phoenix - 4
    Korny - 3
    Majin Kaze - 1
    Mitsky - 1

    Just a reminder to all you folks out there to submit your chattop designs to me!

    Remember, for the contest you can submit a cattop design for ANY sci fi show or fantasy show, book, etc. You can be as specific as "The Picard Chattop" or it could be a general "Wizard's Chattop" or my personal favorite, Stargate SG-1!!! (Raise your hand if you didn't know I was going to say that).

    Also note for all of you who are not technelogically inclined but are artistic and creative: you do not need to create a working chattop. Simply draw out your designs, photoshop them, color them, however and whatever, and then email them to me! We can always find someone who can do the cuttng and slicing of buttons and things.

    For those of you who are very techy and such, feel free to chop up your creation into buttons and fields and whatnot. You can find the tech specs for any chattop simply by entering a room and viewing the HTML source of the chattop itself.

    As for field size, button size, and file type; whatever makes you happy! So get creating, people!!! I will bestow great wonders upon those who win the contest. That is, custom ranks, custom dossier lines, or a custom avatar - your choice!

    Contest will remain open until December 1st.

    Halloween Avatar Contest 2008

    In less than 3 weeks it's Halloween again, and OTF will allow you to wear costumes ... in other words, the Avatar Selection
    will be switched to some scary avatars.
    And even better than that, we also give you the chance to create costumes ehm, avatars yourself and submit them to us as part of this contest.

    So what do you have to consider when making them?

     
    • They should be halloweenish of course

    • File Format should be jpg or gif, png is OK too.

    • They have to be 45x55 aka regular OTF Size
      (45 pixels wide and 55 high)


    Deadline will be Monday, October 27th Midday UTC.

    To submit to the contest, simply send the Avatars to
    avatars@outpost10f.com

    This is also where you can direct any further questions should your cat not be able to answer them!

    Reward you say? Isn't the ability to use your own avatars in the chat enough for you? All right, we'll think up some other surprise too then.


    Have fun and ... Good Luck! (You're gonna need it!)

    Hooray! Star Wars Trivia! For today's event, I dusted off my Classic Trilogy Trivial Pursuit game and came up with the questions completely at random.
    It sure was an exciting day for the real points. Jeremy got the first few points, but left, giving Soka the advantage. However, if the event had gone on longer, then Tommy might have caught up.
    While he didn't get the Master title, Tommy got the Wannabe title by a landslide! Might've had something to do with Wookiee pr0n... *shudders*
    On that note, the results!

    Regular points:
    Soka - 7
    Tommy - 4
    Jeremy - 2
    Comm Officer - 1
    Lzr - 1

    Horror ... Trivia? No, Horror Movie Trivia! That's right, today's topic were Horror movies. It started a bit slow, but eventually picked up a bit of speed.
    The RPs saw a contest between CheebaSan and The AnCiEnT, with Firenaut snatching 2 of them too. The SPs were a close thing too, although it seemed to be hard to make fun of Horror which resulted in a fairly low total number of SPs.
