Quiz answers

So, a few entries ago I posted the questions and choices for the quiz about me I created and gave everyone the chance to answer them. Two people took me up on the offer. The first was Kaly who has been reading my diary for less than a year and the other was Rodge who, by his own estimation, has been reading me about 5 years. so, the newbie versus the old timer. Let’s see who knows me best.

I’ll repost the question and the possible answers. I’ll then post Kaly’s guess, then Rodge’s, then the actual answer. So, here we go:

1) What is the name of Will’s fiancee?
a)Emma
b)Nikki
c)Daphne
d)Montezuma
Kaly: 1) Daphne
Rodge: d
Answer: C. Emma and Nikki are friends of mine and I don’t think I’ve ever met anyone called Montezuma.
Scores: Kaly 1; Rodge 0.

2) Which of the following does Will name as being amongst his guilty pleasures?
a)90210
b)The High School Musical films
c)Grease
d)All of the above
Kaly: 2) all of the above or just High School Musical (hee)
Rodge: c
Answer: D I really can’t explain any of the reasons why I like these things, but I just do.
Scores: Kaly 2; Rodge 0

a)Montreal Canadiens
b)New Jersey Devils
c)Calgary Flames
d)Pittsburgh Penguins
Kaly: 3) Ummmm… The Canadians?

Scores: Kaly 2; Rodge 0

4) Which film series are people generally surprised to find out Will doesn’t like?
a)Star Wars
b)Star Trek
c)High School Musical
d)Nightmare On Elm Street
Kaly: 4) Star Wars
Rodge: d
Answer: A. I just plain don’t like Star Wars. I’m a huge Trekkie so it was never going to be b, already said how much I love the HSM films (just downloaded the soundtrack for the third one) and I’ve not seen enough of the Nightmare films to be able to accurately judge them.
Scores: Kaly 3; Rodge 0

5) Which political party does Will support?
a)Labour
b)Liberal Democrat’s
c)Conservative
d)Monster Raving Looney Giant Green Party
Kaly: 5) Ha ha ha ha ha ha! D, no, A
Rodge: b
Answer: B. I did vote Labour in 1997 to get rid of the Tories but they kept breaking my heart after that. I’d never support the Conservative party and I’m not entirely sure that d is still on the go.
Scores: Kaly 3; Rodge 1

6) Which t shirt does Will say is the second geekiest he owns?
a)Joss Whedon t shirt
b)Dr Horrible t shirt
c)Scotland cricket top
d)Computer diagram t shirt
Kaly: 6) Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog, because the Joss shirt is geeky #1
Rodge: d
Answer: D The Joss one is indeed geek t shirt 1. The Dr Horrible one has become geek t shirt #3. And the Scotland one is my favourite of all the ones refering to either Aberdeen or Scotland. Whic is ironic considering I frakking hate cricket.
Scores: Kaly 3; Rodge 2

7) Name one of Will’s favourite bands
a)Belle & Sebastian
b)Spice Girls

Kaly: 7) Oh lord, A or C, I would guess

Scores: Kaly 4; Rodge 3

8) On which website was a story Will wrote Story Of The Month?
a)SFX
b)Open Diary
c)The Tiny Globule
d)UK Browncoats forum
Kaly: 8: A?
Rodge: b
Answer: C The SFX website doesn’t, to the best of my knowledge, accept submissions of short stories. I have posted short stories in here before but OD hasn’t got a story of the month thing (again, to the best of my knowledge) and I have never put a story on the UK Browncoats forum.
Scores: Kaly 4; Rodge 3

9) Which of the following book series does Will own 2 complete sets of?
a)His Dark Materials
b)Harry Potter
c)Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy
d)Lord Of The Rings
Kaly: 9) B
Rodge: a
Answer: A. I do have all the Harry Potter (as soon as my mum and sister work out which of them has my copy of HBP), LOTR and H2G2 books. But HDM (the main books in the series) is the only one I have two copies of each. I got them on paperback and then bought the 10th anniversary hardbacks when they were released a few years ago.
Scores: Kaly 4; Rodge 4

10) Who does Will describe as his Doctor and assistant?
a)Christopher Ecclestone/Billie Piper
b)Tom Baker/Elisabeth Sladen
c)Sylvester McCoy/Sophie Aldred
d)David Tennant/Freema Agyeman
Kaly: 10) C because I’m a bigger Tom Baker fan.
Rodge: d
Answer: C. I did like Ecclestone/Piper, haven’t seen much of the Baker years (though I have since seen Sladen in NuWho) and D is my favourite combination from NuWho. But it will always be McCoy/Aldred for me. And if anyone doesn’t think Ace is cool remember she once took out a Dalek with a baseball bat.

Final Score: Kaly 5; Rodge 4.

So it was a close run thing, but the new person to my diary did better than the person who’s been reading me for years. However Rodge did guess how many he’d got right.

And there you go. Don’t forget, I’m still doing this:

1 question.

1 chance.

1 honest answer.

Thats all you get.

You get to ask me 1 question.

Any question, anything, no matter how crazy, dirty, or wrong it is.

No catch.

But I dare you to repost this.

And see what people ask you!

Will

Hell yes, Ace is cool! I debated taking it, but since I’ve only been reading for a few months I knew I’d do badly. Looking back, some of my guesses would have been accurate. But don’t feel bad, if I posted a quiz I’d be lucky to get one response.

That was FUN! Thank you! So here’s the one question: if you and D could move anywhere in the world together, any option, which city would you choose to talk about moving to with her?

Aww balls, beaten by Dr. Who, oh well, I shake Kaly’s hand and admit defeat. This old timers memory just ain’t what it used to be. But still, my score does reflect the fact that the laws of probability never lie. If it had been an assignment such as the ones I had on my degree, the pass score was always 40% so 4/10 is just dandy for me. Is there a ceremony for my BA.WtB.(Hons), or will I just get it in the mail?

Well, I’d guessed a few of those right. The first one was the only one I actually KNEW though! Gah! Grease and 90210 I’ll allow, but…High School Musical? *hides*
