Greetings fellow Periaurians.
Who is interested in this? And if so, when are you available during the day to participate?

[Aulë]

OK, so far we have:

~PERIAUR QUIZ TEAM~

Aule: 0100-1900GMT
Fechin: 0845-0000GMT
Niniel: 1800-2000GMT
Snaga: 1100-0100GMT
Legolam: 0900-1800GMT
Elbereth: 0300-0600GMT (1700-0500 weekends)
Wonks: 1700-0800GMT

At the moment, our ideal quiz time is 1800GMT.

We still need more competitors though. Who's up for it?
Tookish, Talierin, FoaT and Narya- I'm looking at you! :D :cool:

[Elbereth]

I would love to join in ...but alas IRC won't work for me....in fact when I tried to download the software, my computer freaked out....froze up and then shut down on me. I have serious issues with IRC....but I will spare you more detail.

But I support the rest of you from afar....and wish you the best of luck....heck I know you guys are good...so I am not too worried. ;)

That doesn't matter, since Webmaster is installing a web-based IRC client which will allow you to connect to IRC through your web browser.

[Fechin]

When is this planned to begin. So I can try and get some more reading done.

[Aulë]

Shouldn't be too long.
We're waiting on Webmaster to get the TriviaBot installed.

[Fechin]

I know this may be a dumb ?ton but I know the IRC thing is going to be on the web browser but does PC or Mac make I difference in that case I don't think it will but I just need to make sure I can be on a compatable computer. I hope we do well!

[Aulë]

See if it works then:

[Aulë]

OK,

Who wants to be in the first round versus the Outcasts?

I suggest:
-Snaga
-Legolam
-Fechin
Sometime between 1100 and 1800GMT on either Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday.

[Aulë]

Hmm, Snaga wont be available then.
Who IS available during Mon, Tues or Wed?

Perhaps we could have Niniel, Fechin and Legolam at 1800GMT?

[Fechin]

That sounds great to me the 1800 GMT.

[Niniel]

I could be there at 1800 GMT on Tuesday; how long is it supposed to take? Cause I won't have all night.

[Aulë]

I could be there at 1800 GMT on Tuesday; how long is it supposed to take? Cause I won't have all night.It should take about 30 minutes to complete.
1800GMT on Tuesday should be good then. (Although the Quizmaster will be a tad tired- it being 4am then where he lives ;) )

OK, I'll try and coax the Outcasts into having the Quiz at that time. :)

[Legolam]

Sorry kids, I can't be available at that time :( . We're having a pancake party in the flat, and I'll be busy whisking up batter :D

[Aulë]

OK, since Scotch the Vampiress is busy, there is only one person left: Wonks!
Is she can't do it, Niniel and Fechin will have to try their best on their own. I don't think the Outcasts will get a full team of 3 anyway.
Good Luck. :)

[Fechin]

Well I am not the brightest blub in the box here. Is the guild comfortable with me and another person doing this? I will be glad to do it I am just saying I may not get a lot of answers. Basically I am new at this.

[Aulë]

Well I'm sure that it's safe to say that you're better than nothing. ;)
And we may be able to field a team of 3 yet. If Celebthol can get himself organized, he may be able to be the quizmaster for that quiz, allowing me to compete with you guys.

[Fechin]

So is it official 1800 GMT time today?

[Aulë]

Well it would be...but the Outcasts have suddenly decided that they can't do it then.


How does 1800GMT on Wednesday sound for you guys?
Snaga said that he might be available then too.

[Fechin]

Sounds great! Lets just make this thing happen before Friday if you can otherwise I can see if I can make some changes to do it. The later in the day the better for me.

[Niniel]

Sorry, I really can't. I'll be away for a few days, back Sunday evening.

[Aulë]

OK, thanks for the warning Niniel.


I'm hoping we can get this team for 1800GMT Wednesday:
- Fechin (confirmed)
- Snaga (maybe)
- Legolam (if she isn't drinking people's blood again ;) )

[Fechin]

So is today the day? at 1800 GMT?

[Aulë]

Yep, and unless a miracle occurs, it'll be just you and me versus the Outcasts. :(

[Fechin]

Just me and you well it could be worse. :rolleyes:

[Legolam]

Good luck guys :) . Sorry I can't help out on this one, but I do promise I'll do one soon!! Life's a bit hectic at the moment with exams coming up and everything :(

[Aulë]

Huzzah!
1800GMT is 2 hours earlier than what I thought it was! Yay! (Thanks to Fechin for reminding me just in time)
And Aragorn21 has joined the team :D

Our Round 1 team:
-Aule
-Fechin
-Aragorn21

:D

[Fechin]

Well I can see what is going on but I can't talk or anything. Good luck team I shall be watching on. All my computer just shows what is going on and it keeps loading something. Good Luck again!

[Fechin]

Congrats!!!!!!!!!
I wish I could have helped maybe next time
Again Congrats!!!!!!!!!!!

[Aulë]

Hehe- I could see that you were trying to get in.
I suggest you contact Scatha to find out why it wasn't working.

Anyway- WE WON!
Huzzah!

15-11 :D


Now we must plan for the Round 2 Quiz against the Scholars.
Anyone up for it?

[Legolam]

Well done Aule! Looks like it was good fun too :cool:

[Aulë]

It was good for my ego too! :D I got all 15 points. :D

When will you be available for the second round, Scotch? I don't want to have to force Idril to do all the quizzing.

[Elbereth]

Congrats Aule!

Great Work! You make me proud! *tear* *tear* ;) :D

[Fechin]

What happened to the Quiz Competitions?

By the way our guild has been very quiet lately.

[Elbereth]

Now although I do not have an answer to what happened to the quiz game...I must agree with you that the guild has gotten quiet.

If you happen to have any ideas...please post it in the Project Periaur thread.

Let's keep this guild going folks!!
