Team Unicorn Power, what do we think?

IT'S THE DREAM TEAM!!!!!

Post subject:  Team Unicorn Power!

Ok, so who is in Team Unicorn Power? Let's all get acquainted. Not 'aquatinted' as my phone would have you believe, though we can do that afterwards, if you like.

Author:  Curiosity [ Wed Apr 18, 2012 12:19 ]
Post subject:  Re: Team Unicorn Power!

Ah!

We're giving the other teams answers.

We need ALL of them in ONE post.

So post answers HERE until we get all of them.

Post subject:  Re: Team Unicorn Power!

Erm, read the rules folks, there is ambiguity, but the statement about posts superseding each other. Does that mean Curio's one post answer removes all of mimi's. I believe it does.

Author:  Curiosity [ Wed Apr 18, 2012 12:20 ]
Post subject:  Re: Team Unicorn Power!

Mimi is now posting answers in random threads.

Will some one please stop Mimi posting!

Author:  Mimi [ Wed Apr 18, 2012 12:26 ]
Post subject:  Re: Team Unicorn Power!

No, It's best to get the easy ones on there (anyone can get those) now let's look for the more obscure ones here, and also throw out a few dummy answers. Silly.

Author:  Curiosity [ Wed Apr 18, 2012 12:29 ]
Post subject:  Re: Team Unicorn Power!

It doesn't matter re: easy ones. We get no credit for them; the opposition just get given free answers.

I thought it was a race because Mimi was posting like a lunatic, and that's the answer Grim thinks is right.

Author:  Mimi [ Wed Apr 18, 2012 12:33 ]
Post subject:  Re: Team Unicorn Power!

Right, here's what we have:





Across
1. What month did Google first crawl the web?
5. Where would you find the Dimrill Gate Bridge and Craster's Crunchy Acres? Pazland
7. What fighting game series allowed you to turn into an animal? Bloody Roar
9. What was Ripley's daughter called in Aliens? Amanda
12. Who was Rescue Technician aboard the Lewis and Clark? Cooper
13. What is Ryu's surname? No, not *that* Ryu. Hayabusa
16. What can Craster jump on, and yet remain perfectly safe? Grenade
17. What is the name of the ship that escapes Reach with the Master Chief onboard?
18. What sort of animal was Mimi in a previous life?
19. What is Sterling Archer's codename? Duchess
20. Anna, Jack, Kuma and Nina all want to be King of the ...? Iron Fist
23. What is the name of the first episode of Red Dwarf? The End
25. Who sired Spike in Buffy?
27. Who flew Thunderbird 1?
29. Who never tells Bill and Ted his name? Rufus

Down
2. What was the first word to be posted on Beex? Fuckhead
3. What is the surname of the person that Curiosity named his daughter after? Serra
4. In which game will you find Gordon Sargent? Grand Theft Auto IV
6. What fuzzy name did we change Curiosity to after meeting his friend Kat? Andybear
8. What word on the Beex forum will display as 'Bruce' if you have the swearing filter on?
10. What does the Doc's Welsh Name, 'Pen Llawen', translate to in English?
11. What do we call Mrs Afterthought if she steps out of line?
14. Where did the Warcraft games (mostly) take place?
15. Princess 'Peach'? Didn't you go by another name once? Toadstool
19. Snake? That's a daft name. What did your mother call you?
21. What would you call a blue, speedy hedgehog if you lived in Japan?
22. What's the name of the original red Power Ranger?
24. What was the name of the policewoman in the Killer Scum game that Gaywood and Grim... ran?
26. Who do Officer Redfield and Office Valentine work for?
28. If Grim... was the first one here, who was second?

They are the easily gettable and the easily googleable, I think. Now, thing's like 'what was mimi is=n a previous life' can be put out as (convincing) dummy answers - check the length though, and don't contradict one another...

Also, best to get some answers out there first if not all are got, so we have some of the ones that either team can get already on the table. Got to go and make lunch. Toodle pip.

I wasn't posting 'like a lunatic', fool. That's OK, it would have been a good one to keep in standby if the answer isn't commonly known. (Is it actually wrong then? I guess it means in forum joke terms)

try and fill in the blanks here and then we'll have to make a decision as to whether we think teh other team will get them ALL or to gamble on putting in our vote with most. First thing to do it to update the thread with a couple of good, dummy answers that aren't easily 'gettable' by the other team - more personal answers might be best here.
Right - lunch.

Maybe - could you copy and paste and amend the list?

Author:  Mimi [ Wed Apr 18, 2012 12:38 ]
Post subject:  Re: Team Unicorn Power!

Oh, here are the team lists: So, on Team Unicorn Power, lead by Mimi, are:
ApplePieOfDestiny
Bobbyaro
Curiosity
Goddess Jasmine
Mr Russell
Slightly Green
TheVision

And on the Barcode Bottler's team, lead by DavPaz, are:
Gilly
KovacsC
Malc
MaliA
myp
nickachu
Trooper

That's handy as we might be able to make better decisions on what the other team might not know.

Post subject:  Team Unicorn Power!

I thought the doc's name meant 'Gaywood' but that doesn't fit, so it might be 'happy wood' or 'merry wood' depending on the literal translation, perhaps? It would be a food idea to use that as one of the dummy answers if we can work out the clues that cross it and put out the answer that doesn't actually fit ( I'm on my pho e whilst eating, so can't see the grid at present to check if we have one of those answers that cross it)

Author:  Bobbyaro [ Wed Apr 18, 2012 12:54 ]
Post subject:  Re: Team Unicorn Power!

llawen means "merry"/"happy" as in Nadolig Llawen (Merry Christmas)

Author:  Mimi [ Wed Apr 18, 2012 13:01 ]
Post subject:  Team Unicorn Power!

That's what I mean - the answer could be either, but only one of those will fit (gay was a synonym of happy/merry, of course). It would be useful to work out if the crossword answer is happy or merry and put out the OTHER answer.

Post subject:  Team Unicorn Power!

Sorry, I've been a bit poorly so had to get something to eat and have a lie down. Anyway, people could have helped with some answers if they wanted to. The idea was a sound one, but with nobody helping to volunteer answers we would never get anywhere. Might have been one person with high google-fu on the other team or all together, but I don't think that the majority of our team even know the game has begun yet, so what can you do?

I can't access Beex from work other than on my phone, so I was always going to struggle with anything requiring:

1) Cutting and pasting
2) Beex searching
3) Things done at lunch time other than eating

yeah, it's understandable. Not to worry, most people hadn't even seen the game had begun yet. Nobody is available all of the time.

As a positive, I had a lovely salad of mixed leaves, chopped boiled egg, mushrooms, peppers, grated carrot and chicken, with some low fat savoury popcorn!

Post subject:  Re: Team Unicorn Power!

right - who do we want gone from their team? Trooper, perhaps? Or KovacsC? Both our teams seem to have very quiet players, on the surface. Of course, some of their players may be a hive of activity in their own threads.

Author:  Slightly Green [ Fri Apr 20, 2012 17:23 ]
Post subject:  Re: Team Unicorn Power!

So we have -


Gilly
KovacsC
Malc
MaliA
myp
nickachu
Trooper


to choose from

I am leaning towards KovacsC for no reason what so ever

Author:  Curiosity [ Fri Apr 20, 2012 18:04 ]
Post subject:  Re: Team Unicorn Power!

I vote we ditch someone quiet.

As a talkative bastard I hate getting offed early, and do always try to keep the fun people around even if it's not the best tactical move :)

Author:  Mimi [ Fri Apr 20, 2012 18:37 ]
Post subject:  Team Unicorn Power!

You sure you're not a plant, Curio?

I do agree, but really we want to win tasks, and they've not shown us the same consideration by voting off, say, APoD, because he hasn't helped with the tasks, etc.

For the sake of keeping the active people on their team, or do we want to win? I'll listen to everyone else on this, so please do give your opinions.

Generally, I think people should be stopped from playing future games for a while if they join and don't post. Spoils it for everyone.

Anyway, do remember that we have no idea how active people are being in their team forums.
