Trivia Pursuit: Wheel of Time - Game Started

[Al Jenn Mael]

I will be hosting another Trivial Pursuit game over at the White Tower. This will be a fun way for us to interact with the White Tower. O' and I don't expect you guys to lose. In fact... Aside from the point system below if you win there will be even more points to go with it. I'm thinking 15 or 20, I'll have to ask Talya since that will surpass my monthly allotment of 40 points. Either way there will be an incentive to win aside from pride.

 

On the 15th I'll post the link here to the sign up threads so be ready for it!

 

Poooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooiiinnnnnnnttttttsssssssssssssssssssss!

I have decided to see who in the Black Tower knows the most about the Wheel of Time books. So come one and all to play Trivial Persuit: Wheel of Time! There are six categories: Geography (blue), Entertainment (pink), History (yellow), Arts & Literature (brown), Science & Nature (green), and Sports & Leisure (orange).

 

I will post a question and the first person to answer it correctly gets some pie, made by yours truly. I will continue asking questions until someone has all six flavors of pie (Blueberry, Strawberry, Banna Cream, Pecan, Key lime, and Pumpkin. I will role a six sided die to choose what the next question will be so get ready!

 

I am making some tea, honey, and warming scones while you wait and for the after pie party!
