Gap Quiz

I'll give it to Avatar on the basis of the first, and the fact that I won't have access to my books to double-check name 2 until next weekend. (I neglected to jot it down when I posted the question... )

Since they largely were shut down by command of the Amnion prior to being allowed to approach, Task 2 was to rig up all of the ship's defensive and offensive systems to be enabled on command from a single button or switch. I think that fell to Sib, but I need to verify.

In any case, go ahead Avatar and come up with your own question.

[Sorus]

Sorry! But hey, good work. It's not often that we're all stumped. Must mean it's time for a reread.

[Avatar]

Damn it...

OK...What form did Warden Dios' "final friend" take when he went over to the Amnion ship in TDAGD?

--A

[StevieG]

Dunno! Final friend - was that Angus?

[Savor Dam]

Or was it a little black capsule?

[Avatar]

And the point goes to Savor Dam. His suicide pill was a little black capsule.

Your question.

Just to close the loop on this, it was targ second Karster who was charged with setting up the weapons console to light up with a single button.

[Savor Dam]

Staying with Warden's black capsule, what happened with it and how did that come about?

[StevieG]

Warden had to give it to Marc Vestabule to seal the final trade. The Amnioni wanted Vector, Davies and Angus, but instead Min offered Vector, Davies and Trumpet which Vestabule initially didn't accept. The suicide pill was the final straw to seal the deal...

[Savor Dam]

Well answered, Stevie! Your question...

[StevieG]

Thanks SD. I'll post another question soon!

[Avatar]

Sheesh, I didn't remember any of that.

C'mon, question...

--A

[StevieG]

A quick n easy one:

What was the name of the vessel that Marc Vestabule was a crew member of, before he became Amnion?

[Avatar]

Think we had this one before. Think I might have asked it. Now see, if I answer, I'll have to ask a question. Anybody else rather have a go?

--A

[StevieG]

Couldn't think of a better one off hand! Go on, answer it

[Sorus]

I'd answer if I had a question lined up, but I don't.

[Avatar]

Problem is, I never have a question lined up. I answer on the spur of the moment, then have to quickly think of one.

Ok, I'm gonna try and think of a question before I answer.

Or, somebody else could just answer.

--A

[Savor Dam]

I think we are all in the same dilemma. You've probably noticed that when I answer, I usually use the question I answer as the basis of what I then ask.

I could do that here, but the follow-on question would be too easy...

[Sorus]

Next time I do a reread, I'm going to keep a notebook handy and make a whole list.

That won't be today, though.

[Avatar]

Yeah, I do that all the time.

Question coming soon, I promise. (If anybody else wants a go in the meanwhile, feel free to jump in though.)
