Here's some interesting trivia. Let's see how much you pick up. A lot of it is Anime and stuff, so some of you folks should have this down easy. 1. In InuYasha the Movie's credit sequence (both English and Japanese) there is a background photo of the picnic at the begining of the movie. The camera is zoomed, out and Shippo is sneaking food to someone in the tree. What InuYasha TV Anime episode is the character in the tree from? 2. In the Simpson's episode "Bart the Genius" Why is Martain's perfect score answer, technically incorrect on the IQ test, and this fact actually debunks the entire IQ test, and might be the reason that Bart got confused, which if-so would prove him a super-genius of at least 160 IQ, by the method he would have had to use to derive his calculations to that point completely in his head. 3. In Witch Hunter Robin, what OS classification are the computers running? 4. In Futurama, why is the What If Machine senerio featuring Al Gore consistant with the rest of the series. 5. In the video game Zelda: Ocarina of Time, what was visable through the window on the right side of the courtyard where you meet Princess Zelda. 6. In the video game Skies of Arcadia, what is the one type of Moon Stone you never use in the game. It is only mentioned for sure in one optional point in the game. What is that point, and where is it located on the map. 7. In the classic cartoon Duck Amuck, what is the graphic pattern on the flag drawn on Daffy Duck's tail. 8. In the classic MGM Christmas cartoon "Goodwill towards men" what was the irony of the release date. 9. What was the conclusions of the "50 states song" Animaniacs cartoon? 10. In the classic movie War Games, what was the game the computer played against itself before it made the revilation that there was no way to win a nueclear war if missiles were actually launched? What is the obscure significance of this game? That should be enough for now . . . Anyone who answers a question correctly can post a new one.

Bizarrely, I actually know one of them. 9: Wakko lost because he failed to answer in the form of a question. But as the other quiz thread proved, I'm terrible at coming up with new questions. The rest of you will have a hard enough time figuring out the other ones here. <img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... /blink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='blink.gif' /> <img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... ns/huh.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='huh.gif' />

Apart from Duck Amuck i've never even seen or played any of these.

I will have to concur with Jacob here. This place is not about anime, and the people that are from here are so diverse, it would be difficult to categorize us as such. Anyway, if you're testing memory, these can't apply as I've never seen them 1: I never saw Inyuasha 3. In Witch Hunter Robin--- 4. In Futurama--- 5. In the video game Zelda: Ocarina of Time--- 6. In the video game Skies of Arcadia--- 8. In the classic MGM Christmas cartoon "Goodwill towards men"--- 2. In the Simpson's episode "Bart the Genius" Why is Martain's perfect score answer, technically incorrect on the IQ test, and this fact actually debunks the entire IQ test, and might be the reason that Bart got confused, which if-so would prove him a super-genius of at least 160 IQ, by the method he would have had to use to derive his calculations to that point completely in his head. I was expecting a question, not a declaration of trivia, and certainly not a nitpicking of intelligence tests in schools. Why is Martin's perfect test score technically incorrect? Tests that measure intelligence quotients are inherently unreliable at measuring intelligence by their very nature, and only well trained psychologists may be able to offer a "correct" evaluation. Indeed, a person may be highly intelligent yet have some other difficulty in answering in the form presented. Martin's perfect score means nothing more than the fact that his knowledge and ability to answer the test's questions exceeded the test's ability to measure. Now, as far as intelligence goes, his speech is simply the work of the writers also attempting to confuse the listener, which must have been surprisingly effective. <img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /> 7. In the classic cartoon Duck Amuck, what is the graphic pattern on the flag drawn on Daffy Duck's tail. Okay, maybe I overlooked that one or simply forgotten it. It doesn't mean I failed to recognize it at the time, though. 9. What was the conclusions of the "50 states song" Animaniacs cartoon? "That's all the capitals, there are." -BZZZ- "Oh, I'm sorry, that was incorrect. You were supposed to respond in the form of a question." <img src='http://definecynical.mancubus.net/forum ... tongue.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tongue.gif' /> Would you like me to recite the song too? 10. In the classic movie War Games, what was the game the computer played against itself before it made the revilation that there was no way to win a nueclear war if missiles were actually launched? What is the obscure significance of this game? Ahh, I haven't seen this movie all the way through, but I do remember it was playing Tic-Tac-Toe. Lots and lots of Tic-Tac-Toe. Because the computer knew the strategies of Tic-Tac-Toe, it couldn't win. It also couldn't win the wargames. I'll have more up next time.

I was gonna answer the animaniacs question, my teacher had the class listen to it all the time to learn the state capitals. As for the thing in war games, the basic thing was that it would keep ending up being a cat game, but I remember long ago coming up with an air tight strategy that would make the first player always win. I can't remember how it went though. I haven't seen too much of Inuyasha, but for that question I'm guessing it's the girl from the episode "Stone Flower and Shippo's first love".

[[7. In the classic cartoon Duck Amuck, what is the graphic pattern on the flag drawn on Daffy Duck's tail.]] I don't even know if this is the right cartoon at all, but I remember seeing Daffy a lot with a flag of a screw and a baseball ("screwball") on his tail. I don't know if that's the cartoon to which you're referring, but I just recall the image vividly. As far as the others go, the only ones I have ever seen have already been answered, so I've got no more to offer.

Actually that was the last game it played to test the theory. I'm talking the game before it.

As for the Inuyasha one you are correct. Maybe that was too easy. Can you name Shippo's second love, what gift he gave her and why.

Forum Games is meant for topics in which people are trying to post mainly for the sake of playing games online rather than communicating information, and asking trivia questions does fit the bill. "Trivial Pursuit", anyone?

Not sure about anything other than War games. It played tic tac toe and then it went though a lot of senarios with Thurmonucler war But it was playing thermal nuclear war the whole time I thought.
