1. What was the full name of Than, and what 3 things did he always have in chat?
His full name was Thanatos, which most people seem to remember. However, no-one seems to remember that he always had whiskey, a big spit-roast boar, and strippers.
2. What colour did I use in the old chat?
A lot of people seemed to think that the old chat was written by me, so they answered black, which was the background colour. I was referring to the colour I used for my messages, which was diarrhoea brown. (Even though the chat called it olive.)
3. What did Mike link to on the splash page, when it existed?
No-one got this one, though a few people came vaguely close. He linked to the Messageboard, the main page, and the Chat, with a login for email below.
4. What argument that still goes on today did Kaatanut and Jorge start?
Apologies to Kaatunut for mis-typing his name. This was an easy question, they started the arguement over whether balefire actually existed, leading to the banning of balefire. Mashy pointed out that him and Your.Master were always involved in these lengthy discussions, but most of that was spam. (You kids today don't know the meaning of the word.)
5. Where did Mashy's name come from?
I thought this would have been fairly easy, but apparently not, looking at the number of correct answers. His original name was Mashadarman.
6. What was pizzaguy's nickname, as a result of an unfortunate typo?
pizzagut.
7. What was BDA's full name, and his RL occupation?
His name was bigdumbanimal, and he was a lifesaver at a pool.
8. What thread was Antigone most famous for?
A very, very easy one, that everyone should have got. If you didn't, you really don't deserve to be here. Ann started the Hot Trolloc Sex thread.
9. Did you participate, or are you just going on what you've been told?
Yeah, so included this one for those of you who've managed to find out the answers from various sources, but weren't actually there for it all.
10. Who fed Hawky cookies from the original couch?
A somewhat tricky one. This was Nynaeve (Erin).
11. What was Callisto's favourite weapon, and it's name?
Slammy the Sledgehammer, something we still all live in fear of.
12. What disease did Simon spawn?
Simonitis, the ability to leave words out of sentences, completely by accident.
13. What was Nebby's full name? (You have to spell it correctly, too.)
Another easy one. Nebuchadnezzar.
14. Which two wotmaniacs are responsible for the longest single thread in the history of wotmania? (Single thread; not HTS.)
The honour of this one goes to Simon and Keira, for their thread which spanned over many months. (We'll ignore the occasional interrupts by Dimmy and Messy.)
15. What was Bashere's real name, and what was the name of his girlfriend?
Ian, and his girlfriend's name was Nicole.
16. Who was Messy supposed to marry? (Bonus point for listing all of this person's names.)
Rex, with his multitude of names. ByGodShesAMan, SAMmy and BGSAM being the well known ones, with ByGodShesAHe being a lesser known one.
17. What three wotmaniacs were known as "The North American Trio"?
Mashy, Jorge and Your.Master. In their peak, they were posting up to 75 message a day, each.
18. Who was searching for the Tinker's song?
The recently returned Random Man.
19. What nationality was Dimmy?
She was, (and, as Mashy pointed out, still is) from Norway.
20. What suggestion did I make regarding wotmania, and who felt an urge to teach me a lesson because of it?
This was actually before my suggestion to turn wotmania into a porn site, I suggested that some wotmaniacs should pose nude, to attract more visitors. For the ladies, I suggested Bad Ash, for the guys, I suggested Taardad Maiden. Bad Ash was only too happy to oblige, but it was Taardad Maiden who decided to teach me a lesson. Let's just say that the lesson involved being tied up in a tent, with Tashmere holding back all the curious onlookers.
