Simultaneous farces, nice! Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: cambridgealex on August 16, 2011, 05:22:17 PM Can I get a general consensus on something before we start.
If a plane blow ups/ explodes/ catches fire/ loses pressure/ malfunctions in some way, and heads towards the ground and someone falls out of the plane and dies but doesnt actually die on impact - is this dying in a plane crash?

Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: stato_1 on August 16, 2011, 06:43:59 PM Can I get a general consensus on something before we start.

No Difference of dying in and dying from? The spirit of Cf is strong in this one. Where is this farce going to rank on the pedantometer? Fair to middling imo Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: Sheriff Fatman on August 16, 2011, 07:28:42 PM Word of advice. Farce can be avoided by restricting updates to around 8.30-8.45 (depending on injury time) then taking a 45-50 minute break before resuming matters, IMO!
Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: stato_1 on August 16, 2011, 07:56:25 PM 5 mins to go. Hopefully plenty are in attendance for tonights reveal... Q1 results to follow shortly. Please try to object as quickly as possible (or not at all) as I reserve the right as QM to reject an objection purely because its too late and we've moved on!
Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: stato_1 on August 16, 2011, 08:00:02 PM OK! Here goes:

Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: stato_1 on August 16, 2011, 08:05:44 PM Pretty hard to have any objections there unless I've done something blatantly stupid... so I'll move swiftly on as I'm expect some mayhem later. Also not posting the scores yet cos its pretty easy to tell after one question imo.
Moving on to question 2... Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: kinboshi on August 16, 2011, 08:05:56 PM Don't rush yourself.. ::)
Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: JK on August 16, 2011, 08:06:24 PM I thought it was safe :(

Gustav Graves is a pass. Aside from the fact its an excellent exploitation of the stupid wordng of the question, you dont have to die on impact to die in a plane crash. He died in a plane crash. Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: danny_b on August 16, 2011, 08:11:13 PM Sooo glad you made me rail this Alex lol
Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: stato_1 on August 16, 2011, 08:12:12 PM OBJECT Gustav Graves is a pass. Aside from the fact its an excellent exploitation of the stupid wordng of the question, you dont have to die on impact to die in a plane crash. He died in a plane crash. "The two fight until Bond uses Graves' parachute and the electroshock function of his suit to forcibly eject him, and Graves is sucked into the blades of the plane's jet engine, killing him and destroying his suit, rendering the Icarus harmless." [ ] Plane Crashed [ ] Objection Upheld Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: cambridgealex on August 16, 2011, 08:12:28 PM QM is only using wikipedia sources to pass/fail questions.
Absolute farce. Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: kinboshi on August 16, 2011, 08:12:58 PM So did the plane crash?
Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: redarmi on August 16, 2011, 08:13:44 PM Geo, longines and Dan must be feeling gutted to end up with 3 for that answer......too clever by half.
Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: redsimon on August 16, 2011, 08:14:31 PM Who is Gustav Graves anyway?

Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: DaveShoelace on August 16, 2011, 08:16:02 PM why is a fictional character allowed in this question?
Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: stato_1 on August 16, 2011, 08:16:11 PM Sigh, no one went for Duncan Edwards. Guess you could hope someone thought hes scored 100 premier league goals Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: ManuelsMum on August 16, 2011, 08:16:29 PM He crashed into the plane..
Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: kinboshi on August 16, 2011, 08:16:46 PM Sigh, no one went for Duncan Edwards. Guess you could hope someone thought hes scored 100 premier league goals rotflmfao (or won the WSOP ME before Moneymaker...but that might be a long shot) Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: Mitch on August 16, 2011, 08:17:15 PM Sigh, no one went for Duncan Edwards. Was going to, but he died in hospital from injuries, thought i might get pulled up on it!

Sigh, no one went for Duncan Edwards. Was going to, but he died in hospital from injuries, thought i might get pulled up on it! Wise man Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: DaveShoelace on August 16, 2011, 08:18:14 PM in fairness, mine at least died because of a plane crash, and isnt fictional, so if anyone gets a reprieve it should be me
Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: Sheriff Fatman on August 16, 2011, 08:18:45 PM Sigh at Payne Stewart being the sheep.

His definition of famous (which is obv ridiculous) is that they must have a decent wikipedia entry. Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: stato_1 on August 16, 2011, 08:20:11 PM in fairness, mine at least died because of a plane crash, and isnt fictional, so if anyone gets a reprieve it should be me Yeah its pretty harsh, similar to Alex's but died of drowning so nothing doing Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: stato_1 on August 16, 2011, 08:21:21 PM Question 3:

His definition of famous (which is obv ridiculous) is that they must have a decent wikipedia entry. Just need Pyso to post in thread that your RSQ edge isn't as big as you think it is :) Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: cambridgealex on August 16, 2011, 08:21:43 PM Just to warn all of you. Stato is extremely stubborn and proud and will never ever admit that he's wrong. He is using wikipedia to decide on all the questions as well. So if you fancy getting an objection/pass through - just log on and invent an article and he'll believe you. What a joke.
Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: JK on August 16, 2011, 08:22:49 PM Sigh at trailblazers being the sheep! Fmel

Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: outragous76 on August 17, 2011, 09:08:57 PM chinese is not a language
Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: redarmi on August 17, 2011, 09:25:53 PM chinese is not a language When written I think it is. The correct answer to be fair would have been Traditional or Simplified Chinese but I am pretty sure as a written language it would be referred to as Chinese. Sure someone else (Paul Ho??) can explain better than me though. Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: outragous76 on August 17, 2011, 09:32:24 PM chinese is not a language When written I think it is. The correct answer to be fair would have been Traditional or Simplified Chinese but I am pretty sure as a written language it would be referred to as Chinese.

Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: redarmi on August 17, 2011, 09:39:23 PM chinese is not a language When written I think it is. The correct answer to be fair would have been Traditional or Simplified Chinese but I am pretty sure as a written language it would be referred to as Chinese. Sure someone else (Paul Ho??) can explain better than me though. thought it was either manadarin or cantonese? Again no expert on this but my understanding is that Mandarin and Cantonese are spoken dialects but when it comes to the writen characters it is Traditional or Simplified Chinese but they don't correlate to a dialect as such. Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: redarmi on August 17, 2011, 09:45:11 PM Perhaps a better way to put it would be that the written language and spoken language aren't the same thing in China in so far as that they all read the same language but don't speak the same language if that makes sense??
Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: kinboshi on August 17, 2011, 09:50:57 PM Think you're correct on the whole redarmi and Mandarin and Cantonese are spoken dialects, but (coincidentally) traditional Chinese is used more in regions outside the mainland, and these areas also are the ones that speak Cantonese.
Title: Re: RSQ 71: Farce the Sugar Post by: kinboshi on August 17, 2011, 09:59:01 PM Also of interest is that Japanese has two syllabary sets of characters (hiragana and katakana) and also uses about 2,000 Chinese characters as well.
These 'kanji' have one reading in Mandarin or Cantonese (I think) , but in Japanese some have several different ways of reading them according to the context (some have as many as 20 different readings). The Japanese for blonde can be written as it was in the quiz above, but can also be written as 金髪 or きんぱつ. |
