*Several places I refer to Lieam having joined the Guard in the Winter War of 1149, however, I found that the RPG has a misprint that says he joined 2 years ago...taking into consideration that the RPG is set up in the same time as the comics thus far (1152), the match comes out to be 1150, which I also accepted.
**The city names were the biggest trip-up for the entries. More people got this wrong than any other, and it came down to spelling. I felt bad at first that the map's text, which is handwritten, was hard to read with the strikethrough, but I found that the cities are listed in the printed text of the RPG and 2 of the cities are printed in dialogue in Winter #1.
***Another one I didn't expect to get more than 1 answer to consider correct. Glen Stone was submitted and I had to accept it. While I hadn't ever done much with it other than place it in the song lyrics (not even having decided if it were real or fictional), the reality is that it was mentioned and is therefore also correct.
dang...I was sure that I wouldve won.
ReplyDeleteI'm soooooooooo upset at myself for not getting the correct answers!!! I'm so upset I might not pick up a mouse guard book for awhile!!!! It would remind me of how badly I did in this contest!!! Goodbye Mouse Guard:(
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to the winners! That was a tough trivia quiz. Thanks David.
ReplyDeleteDang! Congrats to the big winners! I'm honored to have won as a runner-up. I was sure I was going to do better, I submitted my answers two hours after the trivia was posted. In the end, I got one question plain wrong and I had one spelling mistake on the crossed-out map cities. That was an awesome contest!
