 Happy Fun Time Trivia
Happy Fun Time Trivia
This event is all about you users trying to stump each other with gaming related trivia. Playing along is easy, just do the following.
HOW TO PLAY Answer the most recent trivia question and then post your own. Repeat. Try to keep your questions reasonable. Don't ask something like what is the color of the enemies on stage 8 of Shinobi 2. Keep it general about games plots, developers, characters, main items and weapons, and anything that is able to be found out without requring a full play through or anything.
This little forum event will keep running for a while until the prize arcade gets up and running again. Also if you post some quality questions I will make a new event later on that will reuse them, with credit going to you, and be run in the prize arcade events. I'll also come back to this thread when it is all wrapped up and award out points to everyone that has participated. No promises on how many or when but it will happen:)

That could be too, but I think there is a better answer. Think about a feature that Trackmania has which is not available in most racing games. This feature allows more game modes than just racing.

The track itself is a puzzle, combining the need for decent throttle and brake control for precise manouvers. What is the name of the spell that summons all your creatures to one point of your choosing in Dungeon Keeper?

 Re: Happy Fun Time Trivia
Perhaps I'm not doing a good job of forming the question for Trackmania so I'll just give the answer of which I was thinking.
Trackmania games have a track editor. This is not found in most racing games. One of the modes of play is a puzzle mode where the player has to use the track editor to finish a track with a limited number of track pieces provided and then drive the track just created in a set amount of time.

 Re: Happy Fun Time Trivia
Wow, this really took off while I was gone. D:
Don't have an answer to Trackmania, but just so you know, the correct answer to mine was Joker, Two-Face, Mad Hatter, and Mr. Freeze.
