For the mods, sorry for the double post, but I really wanted to get this info out there

1st annual AMV M&G Game! - anime basic knowlege quiz

Ok so yeah, a quiz isn't very original but hey, give us a break. However, seeing as how, as AMV creators, we all are constantly looking for source material let's see just how well you guys pay attention. here's the schedule:

M&G starts: 6pm and so on: pick up quiz as you walk in
7:45pm - deadline for handing in quiz
8pm - video presentation of correct answers.

After the quizzes are handed in Rider and myself will grade them and the top 3 scorers(ties will be settled by a quick round of Jan Ken Po/Rock paper scissors) will receive prizes (to be announced at the M&G) Here is the setup:

The quiz will consist of 10 multiple choice questions (4 choices per question). Each will be rated with a difficulty level in stars based on question difficulty and series popularity (since an easy question about DBZ would be more well known than an easy questin about something like Rune Soldier). If you get the question right you get points equal to the star difficulty (correct 4 star question = 4 points). Before each question we will state which anime it's from as well.

We are going to put this as an honor system game so please don't bring out your phone and jump on the net to get all the answers right. If we see it we will not hesitate to disqualify you. Also, we hate to do it, but to claim a prize you must be present when we announce the winners (immediately following the answer presentation, so circa 8:15-8:30). Apologies if you have to leave early, but the way we are doing prizes we are trying to keep this hassle free.

So there it is. Be prepared!

HINT!!! - Well, I felt bad putting out this broad a quiz without giving you guys SOME kind of hint as to the scope of it. So here it is. Each series represented in this quiz has been represented in a finalist AMV at some time in the past 3 years. Ok, so it's still kind of vague, but it's a start!

you forgot to mention any ties will be settled by rock-paper-scissors

[Stryyder]

Oh yeah, ties settled by a quick round of Janken. Figured it would be more fair than pulling a name.

[Rider4Z]

you figured?

[Castor Troy]

I'm gonna fail since I don't watch anime anymore.
