Thanks for posting these again... you know, I have a problem w/ one question though:

"How many Old Lords were there?"

We really don't know. The answer as given is how many High Lords there were... but we know that at least Kevin had a Council (and I guess Foul would count as an Old Lord too, since he was on that Council?)

Nonetheless, I got the answer right :)

Correct
10. Person who managed to imprison permanently a Raver in his own body:
Your Answer: Nom
Correct Answer: Nom
Mabye im remembering wrong but wasnt it Grimmand Honninscrave who kept it in his body?
But if you're all about the destination, then take a fucking flight.
We're going nowhere slowly, but we're seeing all the sights.
And we're definitely going to hell, but we'll have all the best stories to tell.

Honninscrave manage to restrain a Raver within his body, but it would only have been temporary, not permanent. The correct answer for that question should be 'nobody'.

Blast! I flunked the Warward quiz like whoa. I'm rubbish at numbers, too.

And since when is Nom a person? Are they just making this stuff up?

Okay, clearly there's a crying need for a real quiz. A quiz about ... say ... clothing and accesories!

1: What word best describes Covenant's jeans?

a: Blue
b: Tough
c: Bum-hugging

2: Was Linden wearing a flannel shirt when she first came to the Land?

a: I guess so
b: Don't be stupid -- a female doctor wouldn't be caught dead in flannel
c: It was made of twill

3: What color was Covenant's T-shirt?

a: White
b: Many shades of gray, as befitted his antiheroism
c: Fishnet

4: When did Covenant wear anything besides a T-shirt and jeans?

a: Never
b: He put on a robe after Caer-Caveral made that old lady's head explode
c: Lots of times

5: Quick! What color of robe was worn by the Lords?

a: Blue
b: Madras in summer
c: Black with a clerical collar

6: What did Covenant keep in his pocket?

a: Parking stubs
b: Penknife
c: Nicotine gum

7: Why were the Land's swords made out of ebony?

a: I have no freaking clue -- it's extremely distracting
b: It was magical ebony
c: Do we have all day?

8: What kind of footwear was Covenant invariably wearing upon arrival in the Land?

a: Hiking boots
b: Running shoes
b: Hiking boots

9: What kind of footwear was Linden invariably wearing upon arrival in the Land?

a: Hiking boots
b: Running shoes
c: Hiking boots! Do I have to paint you a sign?

10: What were Caerroil Wildwood's robes made of?

a: Samite
b: Sendaline
c: Ivy

11: Color of the orchids Caerroil Wildwood wore around his neck:

a: Purple
b: White
c: Purple and white

12: What crowned Caer-Caveral's head?

a: Melody
b: Laurels
c: Glory and goodness

13: Did Covenant wear a belt with those jeans of his?

a: Don't know
b: Don't care
c: Yes

14: Did the rigid job-specific dress code of the Land allow for personal ornamentation and modes of self expression, and if not, was this an indication of an oppressive caste structure that hinted at dark currents beneath the utopian facade?

a: People in the Land took pride in dressing according to their vocation in life. There were no Casual Fridays
b: Upon closer examination, the uniformity and numbing sameness of dressing according to one's caste is slightly creepy -- it reveals faultlines in the basic social philosophy of the Land, and weaknesses in the capacity for individualism and enterprise that would cost the Land's leaders dearly over time. You'll notice that in three thousand years nobody invented anything
c: I thought the clothes were pretty
