@Sage: I'm sorry, that's incorrect.

Kyle Katarn is known for carrying a blue lightsaber, but at that point in time he didn't have his own lightsaber; instead he was wielding Yun's, which was C: Yellow.

@Plugg: All right.

I mentioned on the forum at one point that I had previously attempted to follow part of Jewish dietary law. That was the diet that I'm referring to.

@Vilu: I'm sorry. That's not the correct answer. The right answer was A: Arizona.

Never trust a smiling pirate.  :D

I can do that because I'm awesome.

James Gryphon

You're incorrect; it isn't Ralph D. Mouse.

But, D: Ralph T. Mouse is the right answer. The rightful name of the book, incidentally, is "Ralph S. Mouse".

Third question, for 6 points; have a look.

A: Lord Brocktree

I'm sorry, that's incorrect.

The correct answer was A: Lord Brocktree, when he appeared in a vision to Sunflash the Mace in Outcast of Redwall.

Skyblade

This game is definitely interesting, but it's not catered to my personal taste. I will step out and let another take my spot :)

Thanks, MatthiasMan, for the avatar!

Kitsune

I'm going to say B: Macrobiotic.

James Gryphon

That's a great answer.

Unfortunately, it isn't the correct answer. I admit that I have thought about that before in the past, but I don't remember whether I ever did it. Here's the post where I talked about my diet:

QuoteMeat or fruit?
Fruit. I've eaten a kosher (which, given our family's shopping habits, was essentially no meat) diet before, and I could do it again. While meat is nice to have, it isn't something I couldn't live without. Fruit is a lot easier to prepare (a huge plus for me, as a naturally lazy person), and there are a lot more varieties and flavours of it than meat.

So, the right answer would be D: Ovo-lacto vegetarian diet. I'm sorry; you had a great run going.

By the way, I'm thinking it'd be a good idea to adjust the high score rules so that people don't lose out after missing a question. I figure that I'll go through the last few posts soon, and work out exactly what the top scores for everyone would be, using this system. Stay tuned.
