Now forget all those topic games, I just want all sorts of questions.
thats it.
When someone gets one right, they may ask a question.
the random trivia is what I'm after and if I see two or more related questions, then may the poster(s) be cursed "Unto the Seventh Generation".

And while I cant stop people from cheating, I would say that looking things up on Wiki or googling questions are also against the spirit of the quiz (see above curse for effect of cheating).



thank you.

First Q: What is your favorite colour?

Little more specific than that. I'm looking for an individual building. (bonus points if you can guess the room)

My thinking: A red room in Canberra where lawmaking can be abused for the purposes of making sure the decor matches.

Ok, really it was just a red room in Canberra (that could be mentioned on the forums).

But they really made a law to make it legal? Sheesh. :/

If you mean their adoption of the Gregorian calendar - that happened on the 17th according to Wikipedia...

np: Saul Williams - WTF! (The Inevitable Rise And Liberation Of NiggyTardust!)

Heh.

Here's my question:

Name someone with a cell activator that actually works - according to lore, that is.

np: Señor Coconut - White Horse (Around The World)

I don't even know what a "Cell Activator" is.

EDIT: Well, I know it obviously activates cells, but...

Well, that's part of the problem to solve, isn't it?

Hint: it's something entirely fictional...

I know the (an?) answer but I googled it, which is apparently against the rules. So, much as I'd like to end your crickets...

No, that's not what I had in mind - not fictional enough...

What do you mean?
Canberra is fictional, in the sense that everyone who lives there is deluded.
