Frikitest

 

Following the great success we had in the first edition, SuperPanchito and Ezequiel altofether with the organisers have decided to propose the second edition of Frikitest.

Several thingies will be drawn lots among participants and of course the greatest freak in the party will get a nice prize and the second qualifies a consolation prize, but we hope him or her to get under the cloud and keep on studying to achieve the first place in future editions.

 

That's why we have created this quiz, so that you can show you have seen more anime and sci-fi hours than anybody else, that you are a board game expert (Warhammer, Rol), or videogame (MonkeyIsland, Final Fantasy) and of course that you spent great moments reading friki literature or watching mythical films. Should you believe you know everything, the good freak must, don't hesitate to take part.

 


 

We will divide the quiz in two parts:

1.TEST:

As promised we have improved the qualifying test (web), and in order to do that we have asked our friend Ethdra for help. The test will be available from Thursday 24th at 12.00 pm and you will have time to complete it until Saturday 26th at 12.00 pm, when the web will be closed and results will be valuated.

Having the internet and your friends beside you it is obviously easy to get good marks, but try and not use them and be honest. Remember that once on the stage the internet and friends won’t be handy, just a tough battle to decide the freakiest guy in the Euskal Encounter 16.

 


We have decided to divide freaky knowledge in five areas:

1.- Animation, series such as The Simpsons or Futurama
2.- Science-fiction series. Series Ciencia Ficción.
3.- Anime, manga and USA comic.
4.- Feakyi literature and mythical films.
5.- Board games and videogames.


Should you believe you know everything, the good freak must, don't hesitate to take part.

Each area will take 30 questions.

When you start answering the test, every time you finish an area you will be given the chance to continue with the following one or to stop for a time and then retake it again.

Punctuation: this time you will be allowed to leave questions unanswered. Every right answer takes 2 points, every wrong answer carries -1 point and unanswered questions take 0 points.

Time: You will have 10 minutes to answer to each area, if you have not completed the area once that time is gone, it will be automatically sent with your answers and it will be considered finished so that you can continue with the other areas.

Both punctuation and answer timing will be taken into account.

The best five results will pass onto the stage where they will have to fight last year’s winner.

 

2.STAGE:

Every good freak is always ready to show his knowledge and nowhere better than in Euskal with over 4000 people attending. So the qualified ones will go onto the main stage life on Saturday 26th at 8.00 pm.

The quiz on stage will be composed of:

                   1. To answer it (gets 2 points if it is right, loses 1 point if it is wrong)

                   2. To send the question to one of the rivals. The rival is forced to answer it; if it right he will get one point and if it is wrong he will lose one point ( a great rivalry is expected)

Note: should participants give wrong answers the public will be given the chance to answer.

 

 

Let strength help you young padawan, just one of you will get to be a Jedi Master.
