So each round I will offer up series for players to choose for their questions. Depending on how many players there'll be, the number of series on offer may vary. I can't really explain everything so here's an example.
Series on offer in Round 1
Heart of Greed. Maidens' Vow. Dream of Colours. The W Files. Speech of Silence. Man In Charge. Virtues of Harmony. The Biter Bitten. Armed Reaction IV. Always Ready. Healing Hands. When Rules Turn Loose. Sweetness in the Salt. Vagabond Vigilante. The Charm Beneath. Fate Twisters. Perish In the Name of Love. Ultra Protection. Journey to the West. Journey to the West II.
(Ok, so there's 20 series on offer).
Players would select the FIVE series that they are MOST CONFIDENT with (to answer questions about).
So I would pick: Maidens' Vow. Virtues of Harmony. The Biter Bitten. Journey to the West. Journey to the West II.
But you must also list the FIVE series that you are LEAST CONFIDENT about (for example, if you haven't watched the series/don't remember much of the series)
Then I would choose: The W Files. Speech of Silence. Man In Charge. Sweetness in the Salt. Vagabond Vigilante.
After all players choose those TEN series, then the game would begin.
It is fine if players choose the SAME series for both their MOST CONFIDENT and LEAST CONFIDENT categories.
The first player would be asked FIVE questions. ONE from each of their chosen series. Each correct answer is worth 10 points.
If they do not know the answer of a question or gets the question WRONG, then that questioned would be offered to a different player, which will be worth 5 bonus points.
The player who was suppose to answer that certain question will be the one who chooses the player who answers that question for bonus points.
After that 'other' player answers that question - whether correct or incorrect, we will move back to the original player to continue to questions.
After each round, the two players with the LOWEST SCORES would compete in a tie-breaker which will determine who would be eliminated.
The Tie-breaker will be questions based on the series that no players choose (i.e. the series on offer that weren't chosen)
Players may register now! and select their series based on the following series:
A Change of Destiny. A Step Into the Past. A Taste of Love. The Biter Bitten. The Brink of Law. The Charm Beneath. Heart of Greed. Journey to the West. Journey to the West II. Maidens' Vow. Moonlight Resonance Riches and Stitches. Ten Brothers. Time before Time. Twin of Brothers. The Ultimate Crime Fighter. Under the Canopy of Love. Wars of In-Laws. Wasabi Mon Amour. Where the Legend Begins.

Thanks for playing, guys! :) So if you're still confused about the rules, here's an example.
So, Sango's the first player, so to start the game, I'll ask her a question about her first selected series: The Biter Bitten. If she answers that question correctly, I'll then ask her a question on Moonlight Resonance (her 2nd selected series). Then, if she gets that one correct, I'll move on to her third question (The Ultimate Crime Fighter). Let's say she gets this question wrong, or if she doesn't know the answer - Sango must then choose one of the other players to answer it. That question would be worth 5 Bonus Points (so that is separate to the possible 50 points that everyone would be eligble for in their own questions). Based on the list of 'least confident' series, it might help Sango decide who to give the question to. Seeing as both honeybee and babysugargirl both have The Ultimate Crime Fighter in their least confident lists, it's probably in sango's best interests to give the question to one of them (so you want them to answer it incorrectly).
Guys, I know this game is going a bit slow, but I think that's good because the other game's going a bit too fast. And this game will only have 3 rounds anyway, since there's only 4 players!
Round 1: Sango
Question 3 - The Ultimate Crime Fighter: Which two characters from the Ultimate Crime fighter are in the following picture?
-- Edited by AM_092 on Friday 10th of July 2009 06:55:17 AM
Honeybee: For 5 Bonus Points, which two characters from the Ultimate Crime fighter are in the above picture? (I don't think I need to copy and paste it again, because it's right there).
Question 4 - Heart of Greed: Chan Hung Lit, Astrid Chan and Kong Hon ALL appeared in the series. True or False? (you don't need to justify your answer. Just answer true OR false).
-- Edited by AM_092 on Friday 10th of July 2009 10:58:49 PM
Babysugargirl: For 5 Bonus Points, briefly describe how Liza Wang first discovers Myolie's true identity (her relations to her father etc.) in Wars of In-Laws.
Starting from the next player, I'll post everyone's questions together, to speed up the game :)
I don't really remember. Is it when Liza thought Myolie stole jewelries, so she followed Myolie to Gordon's restaurant? She thought Myolie was having an affair with Gordon, so Gordon revealed that Myolie is his daughter.
I'm not sure about the jewellery part, but the rest is correct!! All the women in the house were given fabrics, and Myolie took hers to tailor an outfit for her dad... and Eileen and the other aunt saw Myolie sneaking out to the restaurant, so they told Liza... etc.
Question 1 - The Biter Bitten: What does the series' beginning and ending have in common?

Babysugargirl's Questions:
Question 1 - The Biter Bitten: What does the series' beginning and ending have in common? Theres a wedding at the beginning and end;
Question 2 - Moonlight Resonance: Which actress plays Moses Chan's boss in the early episodes of the series? ANSWER: ASTRID CHAN
Question 3 - Journey to the West: Which of the following actors/actresses, played evil characters? Marianne Chan, Lau Kong, Tai Chi Wai, Chin Ka Lok, Joe Ma, Derek Kwok. ANSWER: Marianne chan, Tai Chi Wai, Chin Ka Lok, Lau Kong
Question 4 - Journey to the West II: Name 3 actors/actresses who played more than 1 character in the series. Are you talking about just Journey to the West II or I & II? - Derek kwok (does he count?) - Sherming Yiu: the moon goddess and the Kings daughter - Gordon Liu (?): the ox and the green vegetable character? (I think)
Question 5 - Wasabi Mon Amour: What role did June Chan play in the series?
Sango: I need more of a description of what role she played, and not her character name... You may re-answer to get 5 points, if you wish :)
===
Babysugargirl: You answered questions 1 (Biter Bitten) and 2 (Moonlight Resonance) correctly!! +20 points. For question 3 (Journey to the West), I personally wouldn't class Lau Kong as an 'Evil' character, but I understand why you would list him as one. I'll give you 5 points for that :)
As for question 4 (Journey to the West II), it is only meant for the sequel. So you had to name actors/actresses who appeared as 2 or more characters. So Derek Kwok would not count, as he played two different characters, but one in each series. Sherming Yiu (though I'm not that certain) and Gordon Lau are correct! But you needed to name 3, so you will not get the points. Other answers could have been Law Lok Lam (Kong Wah's father and The Sea Emperor), Louisa So (Joe Ma's mother and the Sea Emperor's wife), Akina Hong (Vegetable demon and May Kwong's maid) etc.
Round 1 is over The two players with the lowest scores are Sango and Babysugargirl.
To determine who will continue playing, we're going to have a tie-breaker round. The tie-breaker round consists of questions from the unselected series from the offer list: -A Change of Destiny. -A Step Into the Past. -A Taste of Love. -The Charm Beneath. -Riches and Stitches. -Twin of Brothers. -Under the Canopy of Love. -Where the Legend Begins.
Babysugargirl is on 25 points, and Sango is on 30. As the higher point-scorer of the two, Sango will be able to choose her series first.
Each correct answer will represent 5 points (this isn't added to the total score-board). As Babysugargirl is 5 points behind Sango, she would have to have 5 more points than Sango to pull a draw, and 10 points to win.
If it's a draw, then both players will remain in the game!
Sango may now select ONE series from the list, and will answer a question based on that series :)
Babysugarl may select ONE immediately after Sango.
And to be fair, I've already made up a question for each series, so I'm not changing the degree of difficulty as we go along... :) I know there are some series that you guys haven't watched, and/or aren't quite confident about, but just give the questions a try!

OHHGEE! i didnt watch any of those series you listed up there. Ok, maybe i watched like the first two episode of The Charm Beneath and A Change in Destiny, but that's about it. IF you REALLY have to make ME choose, i guess ill choose A Change in Destiny and take my luck.
