Oh, I see. Sorry.

I don't think there's a limit on difficulty. However, when questions are too difficult, they'll likely remain unanswered and that kind of defeats the purpose of the game.

Nautipus · 01-08-2008, 03:03 PM

Thanks. Now who wants to go next?

Grey_Wolf · 01-08-2008, 06:34 PM

That depends if we are gonna continue with the Science Session or come up with something else.

Nautipus · 01-08-2008, 06:49 PM

To tell you the honest truth, I dont care what we pick.

I really just like the game, so any subject matter is good for me.

Grey_Wolf · 01-09-2008, 05:20 AM

Lets do a General subject session again.

Grey_Wolf · 01-09-2008, 05:30 AM

(Since I might not be on all the time, we will have to have an assistant gamerunner: Nautipus - will u take on the job?)

~HISTORY~

...folk:

1.0 - Who came from the North into the Balkan peninsula in several waves during the 3rd Millenium bc. Most likely from Armenia. Later consolidated into several dominant monarchies. = The Greeks

...folk:

1.1 - Who began as a simple agricultural society on the Appenine Peninsula and grew into an Empire. = The Romans

...folk:

1.2 - Who invaded 1.1 during the Migration Period. Of Germanic origin. One of these were the Thervingi. = The Goths

Love to, GW.

Nautipus · 01-11-2008, 05:24 PM

Looks like we'll just be testing each other, GW.

I'll have a go at it, though History isnt my strong point.

1.0-Could it be the Turks?

1.1-I'll guess the Etruscans.

1.2-The Goths?

hectorberlioz · 01-11-2008, 06:15 PM

1.0 The Vikings

Oops

I read too fast. I thought that said 'America'.

Nautipus · 01-11-2008, 06:21 PM

Oh, well. Go ahead and ask some new questions, we'll get the answers from GW when he returns.

The last sane person · 01-11-2008, 06:35 PM

(If right it obvious, if not then I'll be danged)

1.0 (present day) Armanians?

Nautipus · 01-11-2008, 06:40 PM

When GW gets back, he'll give us the answers, until then, someone start a new round. Anyone who wants to go.

1.)Author who wrote book about a Utopia whose title refers to nowhere.

2.)Welsh-born socialist whose utopian experiments reached from Scotland as far as Indiana.

3.) Influential Freisan Anabaptist whose name is used as the source of this large utopian movement's name.

4.) 19th century economist (and unsuccessful candidate for NYC mayor)whose theories of taxation inspired a number of utopian experiments.

5.)Transcendentalist farm founded by George Ripley.

6.) Current American utopian experiment devoted to the practice of midwifery and the study of the works of a San Franciso prophet of the 60's.

Nautipus · 01-11-2008, 07:14 PM

Wow, those are intense!

I hope somebody can answer them, I know I cant.

You're not looking for a better world? Utopias fascinate me.

Not my cup of tea, really. I look forward to a better world, not for it. I already know where it is. They are interesting ideas, I'll do a little research, then we'll discuss. Until then, I'll not be a good person to talk to about 'em.

I like this subject. I did some research on Owen for Philosophy class and my final exam for History class was also partly on early English socialism.
