Yeeessss this is the right section. I'm making a thread for when I get bored, when the Forums are quiet. I can post questions in here and give points and whatnot. I know this is a done thing. But don't you think its fun? I'll have to give credit to BVoO and Pixie, as they have done threads like this before.
Points go as follows: Trick questions - One point for the right answer. Two points for an answer I find extremely clever (If possible). Minus a point for a stupid answer. First person to post the right answer gets the point. Trivia- One point for the right answer. One point for an answer I find extremely clever (If possible). Minus a point for a stupid answer. First person to post the right answer gets the point.
Rules; 1. You can only post one answer for each question, unless I tell you otherwise. 2. No flaming, trolling, spamming etc. 3. If you don't like the game or the thread, don't post!
Here is the trick question: A man is walking outside in the rain. He does not have an umbrella even though it is pouring outside. Nothing is covering his head, yet his hair doesn't get wet. How is this possible?
Here is the trivia question: What singer for a 70's British rock quartet changed his name from Frederick Bulsara?
You're trying to cross a bridge when you're confronted by the guardian of the bridge. "I'm going to kill you," he says "But first let's play a game. If you say something true, I'll behead you, if you say something false, then I'll strangle you. If truth becomes lies then you can cross." What will you say?
In 2008, The Amber Road, Veselin Topalov, N.1 chess player in the world, played an epic game against Vladimir Kramnik. What was the score and how many moves did the game last ? This is an easy question and if you don't know the answer its just as easy to google it. but i trust Jess won't do that.
What can run but never walks, has a mouth but never talks, has a head but never talks, has a bed but never sleeps??
Um, no points for that one, sorry Burnt, I don't even think rivers have heads? The riddle is far too well known for points.
Fours guys are out drinking. Three of them walk into a Bar. The fourth guy ducks. Why?
Ahah. Another classic. I shouldn't give a point for this one, so I won't, because that wouldn't be fair on Burnt. But that's my favourite lame joke!

Okay Burnt, I love this one, 1 point!
A PoleCat is a species of weasel.
