The Wheel of Time Quiz

[Corki]

As promised, I am getting my ideas for the fresh start for the Band started. The first set of ideas I am introducing are a set of quizzes. The topic for this quiz is:

 

The Wheel of Time

 

The Rules

 

- The main rule of this thread is NO SPAMMING. Only post threads connected with the question ask or any previous question. Any spam will be deleted.

- This is a place for us to talk about interesting facts concerning The Wheel of Time, and to see how clever we are.

- The person who posts the first correct answer will post the next question ONCE it is confirmed correct by the original asker.

 

 

I will start with a question on the Band of the Red Hand!

 

What is the current ratio between archers/crossbowmen and pikemen/billmen within the Band of the Red Hand?

[goldeneys]

Ummmm maybe I didn't look carefully enough, but I don't see any bowmen or Billmen. so I'd have to say 3000 to 0 crossbowmen to Bowmen, and however many pikemen there are to 0 Billmen.

 

I know, that this is prolly wrong, but oh well.

[Corki]

That is not correct. However, if you look in the right place, you will find the answer!

[goldeneys]

One archer or crossbowman to four pike or billmen.

 

Is that right, or did you mean the ratio of archers to crossbowman and pikemen to billmen?

[Corki]

1:4 is indeed the ratio I was looking for. I expect you found it in the BWB, under the Band of the Red Hand section? ;)

 

Now, Sei'Cair, your turn to find a WoT question.

[goldeneys]

I don't even know what BWB is, I just googled some stuff and went to a certain site it showed

[goldeneys]

What does a Grolm eat?

[Guest Cadsuane]

People?

[Katiora]

I was going to say blood...

[goldeneys]

well the stuff they do consume does contain blood, but no, neither is correct.

[MsDanya]

they eat horses?

[Katiora]

Umm... Body fluids???

[MsDanya]

hmm.. BWB sais they eat flesh.. that will be my answer then. hehehe.. *pats her bwb, that is not white at all, but a map*

[goldeneys]

ok, I guess they do eat flesh, but where I looked, it said they eat their own dead.

[MsDanya]

ah, yes it says that they can eat their dead as well i think.. or something.. did i get it?? hehehe

[goldeneys]

yeah I guess

[MsDanya]

in the Age of Legends, how many percent of the population had the ability to learn to channel??

[StaffMaster]

25%?

[Corki]

*curses as his BWB is downstairs*

 

um...as a stab in the dark, 33%.

[MsDanya]

[goldeneys]

ummm wasn't it like 1 out of 5, or 20%?

[MsDanya]

nope!!1 i still ahvent gotten the cooreevt answers o i will keep thin open for another day or so.

[Winter Mist]

Was it about 4%? I haven't read the BWB for ages, but I am pretty sure it wasn't that high a percentage.

[MsDanya]

Lara was closest so i will give this to her!!! the correct answer was 2 or 3%

 

Lara, your turn to come with a wuestion! :D

[Corki]

Wow! Now that does shock me! I thought the percentage would have been much higher!
