Olympic Event! Trivia! Gogo! Go go go! GOGO!

[Goldenboko]

gogo.PNG Gogo the mysterious here! I have been called in to host this FFVI Trivia based event. It shall last a few days, depending on participation and the other events, as these Olympics begin to wind down. Indeed I do not know what to expect! It reminds me of the time Locke went up to me and said, "Gogo! You are a strange man!" Ah, the look on his face after my response of "...". Good times, good good times. Or perhaps that time Terra asked me if we girls should stick together. I told her yes, and we giggled into the sunset! What? Oh right, the game. It's just been so long since I've had visitors, please, don't leave. Look, I'll even provide you with a rule list!


Dat Rule List!

Game time!
Q1. How many playable party members are in FFVI?

[Quindiana Jones]

It's fine, we've got this Sam. I just so happen to be playing it right now.

Question regarding the first questionDo you mean permanent party members, or are we including the temporary ones?

##GUESS(Q1)14, though you could say 17 if we include the temporary playable party members.

[Jiro]

That better not be a trick question! I know rydrum was keen to answer but just in case the time runs out I will put team FFVI's answer here.

##Guess(Q1)
14 Permanent Party Members, 29 including non-permanent members ???? the Ghost, Biggs, Wedge, General Leo, Bannon and the 10 moogles.

Someone on my team already guessed but incase this is a SUPER tricik question
##Guess(1)
14 permanent party memebers, 29 temporary party members and infinite party members if you consider that you can have as many ghosts as you like (just not at the same time)

[Jiro]

It could also be (SPOILER)4 at any one time, except in those situations like Kefka's Tower where you play as groups. So a maximum of 12, then.

[Quindiana Jones]

(SPOILER)Dunno why, but even though I knew about the moogles and Bannon and the ghosts etc., I didn't even consider them playable party members. Now I feel a terrible fool. xD

Woohoo, strong start to the event.

[Shauna]

##GUESS(Q1)There's the 14 main crew, plus all the temporary party members which brings our total to 29? Silly jump in numbers, but there are so many moogles. :3

Yay trivia.

[Goldenboko]

1 point for everyone who said 14, two points for everyone who said 14 and 29 temps! Will tally later! Sorry for the tardiness with this, had a holiday this weekend, will keep up with this now.

Q2! How does the cursed shield become the Paladin Shield? EXTRA! for naming the elements the Paladin shield absorbs and what magic it teaches!

[Formalhaut]

Did you have to do trivia on this game? I know next to nothing about it! I suppose I'm just going have to do copious amounts of research..

##guess2The cursed shield transforms after 256 battles when equipped on someone who earns magic AP. Gogo and Umaro cannot, apparently. The paladin shield absorbs fire, ice, lightning and holy damage. It teaches Ultima at a rate of 1% per magic AP, apparently.

[Dr. rydrum2112]

##Guess(Q2) It absorbs fire, ice, lightening, and holy and teaches you ultima. You uncurse the cusre sheild by having it equipped it in 256 battles.

*i didn't meant to edit this- I just wanted to copy the spoiler part to put in new post.

[Jiro]

##Guess(Q2)
I think my teammate rydrum2112 has the correct answer. You go, bro!

[Shauna]

##GUESS(Q2)Complete 256 battles with the Cursed shield equipped on a living character and it will become the paladin shield. It absorbs fire, ice, thunder and holy. Teaches ultima. :}

[Quindiana Jones]

##GUESS(Q2)Equip the Cursed Shield on a character that can gain AP, and have them survive 256 battles to turn it into the Paladin Shield, which is awesome. It absorbs Fire, Ice, Lightning and Holy, and teaches Ultima at a rate of 1%. Terra learned Ultima from it just before we took the Gem Box, which was awesome because I spammed the Mage Master boss with dual Ultima's every round.

[Goldenboko]

At work and cannot tally, but the correct answer was have Survive 256 battles with it equipped to a character! The secondary answer was it absorbs Fire, Ice, Lightning, and Holy, and teaches Ultima!

QUESTION THREEEEEEEEEE! Easy one coming up: What is the name of the island Celes is on with Cid in the WoR?

[Formalhaut]

Question three is easy enough, if you actually played the game.... Google!

##guess3 Solitary Island. I know, imaginative name right?
