Trivia Game 3 ended a year and a half ago. We've been on recess for quite a long
time, but now trivia is back. As a lead-up to the CIC's fifth birthday, the CIC
is hosting a special 6 week Trivia Game 4. The final week will be scored during
the CIC's birthday celebration, and the winner will be awarded a special, as yet
undecided, prize.

So, here's how it works:

Every Monday two main questions and one bonus question are posted to
alt.games.wing-commander and listed at the CIC. Please email answers to
trivia@wcnews.com. Be sure to include a name you would like to be known under
for the Scoreboard. Have your answers in before this coming Sunday (July 6,
2003) to ensure your answers are recorded. Answers submitted early may be
returned and you may be able to fix incorrect answers, time permitting. Main
questions answered correctly are good for 5 points, bonuses good for 3.

-------

New Questions for Week 1 (starting June 30, 2003):

Question 1: Who wrote, "I have heard your accusations and prejudices, and I feel
the abrasion of your hate as if you had seared my flesh with a hot light-spear?"

Question 2: Who said, "This baby packs a helluva punch. You can take out a
capital ship, a building, maybe an entire installation, with this thing. And
what's really incredible ... it does it from the inside out. Sounds crazy, don't
it?"

Bonus 1: Who wrote, "How kan a kat drive a spaceship? They dont have fingers to
move the sterin stik."

Submissions are due by July 6, 2003.

Please email answers to trivia@wcnews.com and do not post directly to
the Newsgroup.  Thanks,
