Thought this might be kind of fun, and that's to do a Lanys Community Trivia Thread.

Here are the rules:

1. A trivia question will be posted to the board.

This can involve notable events that happened on the Lanys server, notable events or quotations from the Lanys forums, or notable trivia about any of the members of our community. Only one question can be posted at a time!

2. The person who correctly answers the question gets to come up with the next question.

The questions have to be able to be answered from being a member of this community (something like "What color shirt is Bupas wearing right now?" isn't a fair question).

Also, the person asking the question needs to know the answer!

3. Rinse and repeat.

Let's see how much trivia we can get on this thread. Obscure, interesting facts are best.

Question 1:

We'll start easy.

What month and year did the Lanys server go live?

jan 2000?

december 1999.

Vanamar is right- now you choose the next question Van!

Alright Jox, your turn!

Damn, i've been wracking my brain trying to think of some good ones. Unfortunately, the only ones I can think that are good and obscure even *I* can't remember. But here goes.

- From the same era, of naggy and Vox pugs. Who was the female toon who kept running the Vox pugs? Cleric maybe?

Rezann? think that was bard but they had a cleric. i never pugged them dargons.

Hmm, you're either 100% correct or really warm. I think that's the one, though.

Melodist was the bard character of Rezann's. I'm terrible at trivia but so far, assuming all answers are correct, I'd have gotten these all right.

Well assuming I'm right, what was Istrahd's catch phrase?! Probably an easy one, but I can't really think of anything.

For the swarm!

I think that was it, at least.

Yup, your turn Zatronn.

OMG I HAVE A GOOD QUESTION ZAT HURRY UP

Alright, uhh...

who was the original guild leader of Oryx?



(also, someone tell me I'm not crazy, but I swear the bard that ran all those Vox raids was Gabriele. I was dating a girl named Gabrielle at the time, and I remember the names being similar.)

Rydius

yep

Ok, here's one that may be hard.

Name 2 class winners of the Lanys best of the best (BOTB).

Caylen and Itzlegend.

Who were some others..? Was it Sanctus who won the bard botb? Think it is someone whose name starts with an "s"...

Anyways.. your turn Kuwen

I think this one is pretty hard/obscure:

Who was the recipient of the Crystal Claw of Veeshan?

After looking at Argrax's question, maybe we should add a rule for questions that can't be answered, heh.

If it isn't answered in 24 hours, a new question can be posted. Sound fair?

As far as the answer to your question, was it Antoine?

http://eq.knowledgepit.org/wiki/The_Sev ... ys_T%60vyl)

Yes that's the answer, but the fun is spoiled if people just 'google' the answers, no?

What race/class was he?

To be honest, I was amazed the answer came up in Google. I just wanted to see what classes could equip the thing and stumbled on the answer, heh.

Wasn't he a half elf rogue? (my memory is likely faulty here)

Next question, and this should be easy...

On Lanys, what group had their own "mafia"?

Rangers

Correct!

Name a Bard, besides Leolan, who was a mod for the Lanys boards.

(I hope I am right)

Oh, geez, I'm assuming it was the guy who started the boards and who also had that weird supernatural site that the Lanys board redirected from. But I cannot remember his name for anything.

It's been 24 hours! What's the answer?

Hope is the new black.

I thought maybe Devyn? He's the only mod that I can remember who I'm not sure of his class. Not sure though.

Someone go ahead and put up the next question.

Sorry, I forgot about this thread. I was actually thinking of Anise. I forget the dude's name.

The guy who started the ezboard forums was storm something or other, he wasn't a bard. The guy Neesha is talking about was a bard from Soul Assassins whose name started with an A, but I can't remember it. I think it might have started with Aran or Aron or something like that. He had cool sigs and he made Tarot an admin when he stopped playing, I think Leolan was already an admin at the time.

Q: Who wrote an infamous rant titled 'EQ: What You Really Get From An Online Game' which appeared on Slashdot in 2002, and brought this issue of Everquest addiction to the forefront of many message boards across the internet?

that would be dolalin.

It was Caylen and Three, not Itzlegend.

And Zat you were right, it was Gabrielle.

Question:

There was a high elf cleric on Lanys infamous for not healing dark elves, trolls, and anyone who led raids on Tunare.

Name that cleric's mage alt.

_________________

oh not fair... I remember the cleric name, but not the mage!

Edit#2

Wasn't Felishanna's alt named Suzanna?

I don't care about the order of operation, but who was that dumb human monk bitch that always roleplayed "SCRIBBLES" like she had to write everything out because she was a mute, and kicked people out of groups and raids for cussing.

And an edit to the last question, he wouldn't heal any evils, unless there was loot for him to be gained.

Solanthious wins. I can't remember if it was a "z" or an "s," but yeah, that's the one.

LoL I remember that scribbles shit. Used to drive me insane.

What were the names of the 2 characters from Inner Fire that were banned because one worked for Sony and gave the other equipment?

_________________
"I'm the best there is at what i do, bub, and what i do isn't very pretty"

Crap, I can only remember one.

Edit: Maybe not. Haxor and Gratiano?

You got 1 right!

_________________

I'm trying to remember who else was involved in that deal. Aymen?

The monk was Tanilium? IIRC the guide was Aymen Tadat, and the players were Haxor and Kristof. Spelling might be off but he was a halfling rogue.

Yeah Xan, it was Aymen and Haxor

_________________
"I'm the best there is at what i do, bub, and what i do isn't very pretty"

Nah, wasn't Tanilium.

Gratiano wasn't banned but was responsible for the Katana of Flowing Bullshit post on Safehouse.

Aris had a field day after that.

What were the names of the two guilds that merged to form Seven Dreams?

It wasn't Tani.

Her name was Kalysta or something like that. Multisyllabic, began with a K. She was in T'Vyl Honor Guard.

_________________

Kailya? That's the only K name I remember but I don't think she was a monk.

Kailya was a paladin, related to Xian, and didn't have anything to do with that incident.

_________________

I dunno if RPing a mute monk is an incident o.o

I'm confused now. I thought someone was originally saying tani and kailya were part of the loot incident :p

ignore me.

_________________

No, you're conflating two different questions. The as yet unanswered question is the name of the mute monk.

Hope is the new black.

Newp, was talking about the mute monk. The loot incident was Aymen, Haxor, and Kristof.
