Team Competition: Book Trivia Competitions
« on: December 21, 2013, 11:50 PM »
Welcome to the newest PTS initiative.
Team Competition: Book Trivia Competitions

Rules:
1. Four teams would be formed by volunteering members of even number of members (as per the number of people who sign up.) As more people join, they will be added.)
2. There will be a book trivia posted, i.e., plot details, character descriptions, quotes or background descriptions,etc that will not be completely obvious but will be as unique as they can be.
3. Every trivia post for a book must have at least two things of those mentioned to form a valid question.
4. After the first question, the next question will be posted by the team who answered the first question. Then the team who answers their question will ask the next one and so on.
5. The Mods (those who don't participate in the competition) will be the game-masters. They will have the ability to add special book themes. These themes will run for four questions after they have been introduced.
6. If the other teams feel a need for another hint, they will have to DONATE the amount equal to the number of their team members to PTS. After confirmation by one of the game-masters, the questioning team will PM the hint to the donating team.
7. Any further details will be introduced later as the need arises.
8. Be fair - NO CHEATING! - and have fun!

With only 5 volunteers after such a long signing in time, the five individuals would be the participants.

First blood!
"Fire to my ice. Ice to my fever."
It's in Dublin.

I'm going easy folks. You don't have to.

I haven't actually read this book, so the Dublin hint kind of confused me a little.  ;D

 :iagree:

Well, here's the new question? [Hopefully it's not to hard.]

"All the good guys have baby blues."
The rock formations described reminds me to the Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park.

Nin it's supposed to continue but I hear he is in a kind of hiatus for a while, so I don't really know.

Here's the next one. Nin's would go side-by-side witth this one.
 
Quote
“He reached down to the floor at one point. I
thought he was tying his shoes…” But no, he hadn’t been. The creep
had been stealing her wallet! And she’d flirted with him just
moments later!

This one is about robbing a bank in Plymouth, New Hampshire.

Well, I think I'll also go easy.
