Digest for rec.games.trivia@googlegroups.com - 18 updates in 5 topics

msb@vex.net (Mark Brader): Mar 18 02:33PM -0500

This is Rotating Quiz #174.
 
My thanks to Stephen Perry for running RQ 173 and for finding a
scoring system that made me the winner. The winner of RQ 174, in
turn, will be the first choice to set RQ 175, in whatever manner
they prefer.
 
In this quiz there are 10 questions for 2 points each -- 1 point
for finding the correct answer and 1 more for simply spelling it
correctly, including capitalization. For all questions that describe
for a person or family, simply give their surname.
 
Please answer based only on your own knowledge; put all of your
answers in a single posting, quoting the question before each one.
 
Answer slates must be posted by noon Toronto time (zone -4) on
Tuesday, 2015-03-24, which gives you a few hours less than 6 days
from the time of posting. Have fun.
 
In case of a tie, the first tiebreaker will be who scored on question
10; the second tiebreaker will be who scored on the hardest questions;
and the third tiebreaker will be who posted first.
 
 
1. [Architecture] These father-and-son architects emigrated from
Finland to the United States. Between them they were responsible
for the main railway station in Helsinki, the Dulles Airport
terminal serving Washington, and the Gateway Arch in St. Louis.
 
2. [Literature] According to this author's website, his first solo
novel "failed to frighten a single tourist away from Florida"
and "his next effort, 'Double Whammy', was the first (and
possibly the only) novel about sex, murder and corruption on
the professional bass-fishing circuit". Two of his novels,
"Strip Tease" and "Hook", have been adapted into movies.
 
3. [Sports] This American team did won the major championship of
their professional sport twice in a row, and in doing so,
became the first team to win it twice at all. They just haven't
won it again *since* then, and it's now been over 100 years.
Give the team's 7-letter *nickname* that is formed as a simple
diminutive of their official name.
 
4. [Business] The same year that the <answer 3> won that second
championship, this brand name was established in Britain.
It refers to kits consisting of metal plates and strips, nuts
and bolts, axles and gears, and so on. Intended for children to
build models of structures and machines, it has also seen use
by scientists and engineers wanting an easy way to improvise
experimental setups. Name the brand.
 
5. [Geography] The French-Spanish border generally follows what
mountain range?
 
6. [History] In a situation of amphibious invasion such as the
Allies' "D-Day" attack on Normandy, what term is used for the
small land area initially controlled by the invading force?
 
7. [Entertainment] His real name is Stanley Burrell and two of
of the Grammies he's won were for the song "U Can't Touch This".
By what name is he widely known?
 
8. [Science] In an 1854 public demonstration in Germany, Mayor
Otto von Guericke of Magdeburg showed how strongly two metal
hemispheres could be held together if *what* was between them?
 
9. [Easy] What was the hidden theme to all the answers?
 
10. [Math] Explain the hidden *sequence* of answers #1-8, as it
relates to this theme. (Answers #9-10 also fit the hidden
theme, but not the sequence.)

"Mekano" is the spelling used in Swedish, which does not seem like
the original one. Provided that I'm barking up the right tree at all,
that is.

MC Hammer ["two of of the Grammies" - I had heard of this phenomenon with repeating a common word (e.g. "the", "of", "a") at the end of one line and the beginning of the next, but had never actually seen it done until now. ]

fibonacci sequence used starting with a=1, b=2, c=3, etc.
 
... damn it. I might need to make up another set of questions. unless my lack of expertise in using capital letters sank me.

the company 'Meccano Ltd' owns the 'Erector Set' brand, but I had to look that up after the fact.

I shouldn't do these late at night any more. Thank You for taking the time to check. "dominating" is being taken out of context on my part right now so I will refrain from further comment on it.

I had originally awarded a 1/2 point to Chris for saying "railway" instead of "railroad" on this answer. but when the resident train expert Mark says they are the same, and has something to lose by doing so, I have to take that as authoritative. 2 for Chris, which brings the score up to a tie at 20-20 with the tie breaker going to Mark for entering first. but wait! there's more...

I stand by my ruling on this one. you are correct in that the wording was flawed, as it was for a couple of others. but based on the wording given I feel compelled to keep everyone's point who mentioned basketball. the score stands at 20-20, with 1 more item to consider.

> Chris: bungee jumping with joy
 
> Is "jumping with joy" a real expression?
 
I did a google search on the phrase before scoring and saw 173k hits so decided it was good enough even though I have never used it myself.
 
the modified scores if there are no further errors or protests:
 
name 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 total
---------- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- -----
Mark B 2 2 2 1 2 2 1 2 2 1 1 2 20
Chris J 2 2 2 2 2 2 0 0 2 2 2 2 20
Dan B 1.5 2 2 1 2 2 1 2 2 0 0 2 17.5
Marc D 2 2 0 0 2 2 0 0 2 1 0 2 13
Dan T 2 2 0 1 2 2 0 0 2 0 2 0 13
Calvin 1.5 2 1.5 0 2 1 0 0 1 0 0 2 11
Pete 2 0 1.5 0 2 2 0 0 0 0 0 2 9.5
Erland 1.5 2 0 0 2 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 7.5
---------- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- -----
totals 13.5 14 9 5 16 15 2 4 11 4 5 12 111
 
and I think it is fair to say that the hardest questions were 7, 8, 10, 11, & 4 based on total score and # of people who got points on each. Mark and Chris scored a total of 6 on each, but Mark got points for the hardest ones. Mark also entered first, but I don't think we need that particular tie-breaker in this case.
 
So the original ruling of Mark Brader as the winner stands. Congratulations Mark!!

DOMINATION!
 
Thanks for checking.
 
 
I'd thought Chris was winning this one, partly because I wasn't expecting
"basketball" to be worth a point, so I don't have a new contest ready.
I'll post one when I do.

Hrmpf!
 
I said basketball, well "basket ball", and got no point. Not that it
matters, I would not even move from my miserable last place. (And I
don't feel ashamed for saying "basket ball". Whether an English
compound is written with space, hyphen or no separator at all, it
notoriously difficult to know, and in this particular context only
the space made sense.)

They're not only the same, they're exact synonyms -- a very rare thing
in English. The only difference is in regional usage: in North America
"railroad" is the more common word of the two, while in Britain it's
fallen completely out of use.
 
What difference did you think there was?
