Here's how the trivia game will work:

I'll post some questions (I haven't made a list yet, I'll make them up as I go along) that start really easy and then get harder. After about 20-25 questions I'll count up the scores and hopefully we'll have a winner! The questions will vary in topic, from questions about the band members themselves to questions about the songs and questions about people who have collaborated with the band. There will be no questions on solo works or tours.

To answer questions, PM me with your answer - that way people can't see your answer and get answers from others. To start playing, simply answer the first question and you'll be put onto the list of players. After the first question, if you don't answer a question, it will count as an incorrect answer and you will get no points. If you don't know the answer to the first question, but still want to play, just PM me saying you want to play but don't know the answer.

The first few questions will be worth one point each, but as they get harder they will increase in value.

Question 1
Value: 1 point

Name the song with these lyrics in it:
"You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to"

Remember, PM me with your answer, or if you want to play and don't know the answer, PM me saying that you want to play.

There are six players so far... I'll wait a bit more for people to join in since it'll be more fun with more people, and then I'll post question 2.

Congratulations to the eleven trivia game players; everyone got question 1 right, which places everyone on a level footing of one point each. The players are (in the order that they joined):

carefulwiththataxeEugene - 1 point
Woof Oink Baaa - 1 point
Radio Slaver - 1 point
ItWouldBeSoNice - 1 point
Dark Side - 1 point
FootageOfACop - 1 point
pinkfloydmadchris - 1 point
Free Games for May - 1 point
Eclipse73 - 1 point
anycolouryoulike - 1 point
liamcool - 1 point

The correct answer was Dogs.

No more competitors will be allowed to join now that the game has started. Question 2 will be slightly harder than question 1, and the questions will continue to get harder as the game progresses.

Question 2
Value: 1 point

Name the lead vocalist on "The Great Gig In The Sky". (the original song, not a live version)

PM me with your answer - if you do not answer the question or you answer incorrectly, you will obviously not recieve the point.

Perhaps time for Question 3? I'm excited.

i think that a new question should be asked when everyone in the game has submitted an answer, or after 4 days or so - that was the gap between questions 1 and 2

Yeah. You're actually probably right. I would love to talk but you are my opponent so . . .

Only 7 people have answered question 2 - I'll wait another day or two and see if the other three answer it, and then I'll post question 3.

liamcool has been allowed to join as an eleventh player even though he answered question 1 after question 2 had already been posted, but please note that no more players will be accepted now that the game has started. If this game turns out well, I will run another one, but for now there will be just the eleven players that are in the game.
