Happy Birthday: World's Hardest Gary Gygax Quiz

[Gentlegamer]

80% no Google.

 

[Keeper of Secrets]

I got a 60% w/o Google. One of them is kind of a trick question. Or, I suppose, its more accurate to say, you need to read it more carefully than I did.

 

[MerricB]

100% without using Google... and one answer wrong.

(I guess I made it up by knowing the name of Gord's barbarian friend's axe).

Cheers!

 

[the Jester]

80% without Googling.

I missed 6 & 7. One I thought I knew, one I guessed wrong after eliminating several options.

 

[JohnRTroy]

I got 90% on my first try. #3 and #7 stumped me. (Yes, I knew the name of the Axe from the start). I had to get it right though, which is why I have 3 tries--I wish they ranked each try on the leaderboard.

I think #3 should have been ranked harder because Gygax used a LOT of words, and all of those were the types of words he said. Whose gonna memorize every single word!

 

[Relique du Madde]

I got a 60% (after adjusting for spelling errors and how crappy the web broswer is on my phone).

Anyways, Happy EGG Day, and don't forget to give Gary an EXP present!

 

[Bullgrit]

Now the leaderboard is full of people who took the quiz more than half a dozen times. Boo on them.

[Ulrick]

90% on the first try. #7 and #9 stumped me. No google.

 

[JRRNeiklot]

100%, but I guessed at #7. Couldn't remember the name of the axe, it's been about 25 years since I read that series.
