Second Prize: Special Edition Safehouse T-Shirt, mug, mousepad
Third Prize: Special Edition Safehouse T-Shirt, mousepad
Fourth Prize: Special Edition Safehouse T-Shirt

I'd say most of the questions are quite challenging, and the players who are familiar with the entire world of Norrath will definitely have an advantage. There are only a couple of rogue specific questions since there is certainly a plethora of player types come here to the safehouse.

Of the administrators, Glip did quite well, getting over 80% of the questions right. Zato on the otherhand... well, he's a dwarf.

I will be posting the quiz on the Safehouse soon after I return. Oh, and no, several of the questions are <u>not</u> in the compendium.

The Quiz is currently in the hand of Verant. They may be posting it to the main Everquest board. Not sure yet.

Who won? 'Team: Am Fek'

But unfortunately there was a little bit of controversy since I gave out the rule '4 people to a team' downstairs, and the group upstairs didn't hear that. Let me see if I can find their names somewhere.

Does the big VI have a deadline to "do something" with the quiz, or are we pretty much never going to see it? - Nymm
