The RSQ has been declining in numbers recently. Hopefully everyone can make an effort to join in with this one
Welcome to RSQ31. For those who haven't played before this is a good chance to get some practice at the format in before bB8, where there will be a live version of this quiz.
The idea is simple. PM me an answer to each question. All the questions are quite easy, but with some not so obvious answers. Your score for each question is the amount of people who selected the same answer. So you want to avoid obvious answers. But if an answer is super obvious you might want to use it because no-one else will use it because it's too obvious. Or whatever. The most common answer is called the sheep answer.
You may pass
TWO questions. You score 0 for each question you pass. This is good, so be sure to use both passes, even if you can answer all questions. Note that you can't pass question 11.
If you get a question wrong then you will score the sheep score + 2.
The reveal will take place in this thread at
19:30, Tuesday 1st September. During the reveal we will see who answered what and score the quiz. If you wish to object to an answer then feel free. I'll review the objection and give you a decision.
The winner of the quiz has the honour of either hosting the next RSQ themselves, or nominating someone else to do it.
Any questions, post to this thread.
Deadlines for submission:
19:30, Tuesday 1st September. Good luck!

Objections to facts in the reveal are allowed. If a fact turns out to be incorrect you will incur a 2 point penalty. Not giving a fact also gets a 2 point penalty.
12. Name a Star Wars film.
