Welcome all to the Final Fantasy X Trivia thread! Most other FF's have one and I felt that FFX not having one was just plain wrong. Before we start, let's set up 1 simple rule:

"Whoever asks a question, gets to give the next question to whoever answered correctly. ONLY the guy/girl who posted the question gets to do that. If he/she hasn't replied in 48 hours, free question for whoever wants it."

Please follow it. It'll make things easier. If you think there are more rules that should be added let me know.
That being said let's start with an easy question:

Who said the following line, and where?
"Pick spot. Shut up. Wait."

This is technically cheating, since I JUST played this part last night....

Kimahri says it, in the Djose Temple, when Yuna is praying to the fayth and they are all just waiting.

I would call it pretty damn good luck. I was expecting people to know who said it, but I thought that maybe remembering the temple would be somewhat of a challenge.
Anyways you got it perfectly right. Your turn.

Yea, I'm playing my 11th game of FFX right now, although I've beaten it 2 times....its the Calm Lands, my games always stop there!

As for the question!

Wakka upgrades Tidus' starting weapon at one point in the game, what abilites does he add to it? (The starting weapon being the one Wakka gives him, not the one Auron gives him in Zanarkand).

The original ability of the Brotherhood(the sword that Wakka gives to Tidus) is a "Strength +5%". After a certain point in the game (i think it's in guadosalam but i'm not sure) 3 more are added. "Sensor", "Strength +10%", and "Waterstrike".

Very good, I just got through Guadosalam (sp?) and that was the only decent question I could think of.

Your turn! I wonder if anyone else is going to join in haha

Yeah I think i'll wait before posting so that other people can join in too. In fact free question to whoever wants it except you Seru Kai. More people here would make it more fun.

Your 100th post was to banish my questions?! Nooooooooo.

And I'm at work too, what am I going to do for the next 8 hours!

When speaking with Rin for the first time, how does Tidus mispronounce the Al Bhed for "Nice to meet you"?

....I hate you for this question

I think it's something like 'Heya do sadwee'. I'm fairly confident on the ending, just not the beginning.

Is it not 'helly doo sad wee'?

I haven't even played FFX for ages, nor do I really like it, but that sticks with me for some reason.

Yeah, you got it. "Helly doo sad wee" it is (the correct Al Bhed being "Hela du saad oui.") Your question, if you want it.

My memory of X is a little hazy, so I'll leave this as a free question. I don't think I recall anything trivia worthy, so yeah, up for grabs to anyone who wants it.

(Thanks for the free question)

When you first aquire Rikku, there's a battle tutorial. Whats the name of the Mix combination that you make, and what is it made of?

I believe she made fireststorm, and it was made from 2 bomb fragments?

I'm saying that's correct, I know the second part is, and I think it is called firestorm.

For some reason I just can't think of it right now. Your question though

come on come on ask a question

It's been a couple days, so I'll go ahead and ask one.

What is the order of magic spells that Seymour casts when you first fight him, in Macalania Temple. (And yes, there is an order).

If I remember correctly... Ice, Lightning, Water, Fire?

Ah, that is correct! I wasn't expecting an answer so soon.

Your question.

haha right place right time, thats all

What is the one enemy in the game that, excluding Yojimbo's Zanmato, you can NOT kill?

Is it the Magic Pot?

You mean besides Sin? :)

(joke)

it is the Magic Pot, Agent0042 is correct

Okay, who was it that sealed the Qactuars in the Qactuar Stones?

Okay, who was it that sealed the Qactuars in the Qactuar Stones?

was that ever mentioned? i played the game through a lot of times including sidequests but i don't remember this at all.

I thought it was mentioned during the Kimahri ultimate weapon quest. Can't quite remember though.

It was mentioned. However, since it seems to be stumping people, I'll give a hint-- if you tell me whose name the Thunder Plains carries ("Thunder Plains" isn't the full name of the place) you'll have the answer.

That would the Gandalf... err, Gandof Thunder Plains... if memory serves me.

You got it, Domingo. Your go.

Hey guys, I hope I'm not cheating here, but I'd just like to make a little contribution here; hopefully I'm not breaking the rules by not answering a question first, but I'd just like to have a little fun.

What does Tidus accidentally call the Macalania Temple when he first hears of it and tells the others that Seymour has gone there?

It's courteous to let the person that got the last question right to ask the next question. But if they don't respond in 24 or 48 hours, its an open question. Don't worry about it this time since you just joined us here.

And to answer yours, Tidus calls it 'Macarina Temple'

Sorry about that; I was kinda afraid to post that, but I just couldn't resist; that moment in the game made me crack up! :D But definitely next time I'll answer a question first ;)

I'll post one.

There's a chest in the game that you can choose what reward you get. There is only one of these iirc. List ALL the things you can get in that chest.

Is it that chest of dreams thingamajig? hmm I've got a account now at Bikanel Island ill go open it now and edit it when i've found out

EDIT: Bomb, Elixir, Hi-Potion, Mega Potion, Soft, Chimera, Potion, Remedy, Evil Eye
and if thats wrong i'm going to shoot myself for copying it down wrong

Yea, that's that chest I was talking about, good answer.

Your question

Where is the first place you can use an Al Bhed Compilation Sphere?

If I'm not mistaken, that's when you first arrive at the ruined Baaj Temple, following the events in dream Zanarkand.

correct your turn

If you told Clasko that he should become a chocobo breeder, you find him later on the S.S. Liki having taken on that job. He seems to be happy in his new job and gives you something, saying that he found it in one of the chocobo nests, but it's no use to him. What does he give you?

I'm taking a wild guess and going with some Level 4 Key Spheres. Honestly, I had no idea though.

Nope, sorry, that's not it.

Oi! Shot down 1 minute later, nice timing. I'll try and think of better guesses. can't be anything too important though, seeing as how you can not tell him to choose the breeder job. I shall be back!

No idea...I never payed attention to this...

I think I got it, he gives you a Friend Sphere.

It has to be a sphere, if thats's not it I'll try another one.

Yeah, you got it. Friend Sphere it is. Your go.

Sweetness.

There's a method you can use to pick your Blitzball League prizes that you want without having to play a bunch of games. Example, it makes it easier getting Wakka's Overdrives/Sigil/Jecht Shot II. Describe the steps you take to use this method.

If this question is too vague just let me know.

It is too vague. And I know what you're talking about. I also know it's a lot of stuff to write down...

I knew it when I posted it haha, only thing I could think of really.

After you finish a League (10 games)you hit the back button and save your game without looking at the new League prize. Then you can keep resting at an inn if you don't like the League prize and it keeps refreshing it until you play a game. It helps avoiding a ton of games for Wakka's Overdrives.

Free question.

Okay, another blitzball question. Name one blitzball player who you can recruit who speaks in the game (that is, there's a voice actor for him/her) but is not Tidus, Wakka, Brother, Rin, or any of the Besaid Aurochs or Luca Goers.

Is it....Mep?

Surprisingly tough question, I'm thinking someone around the Kilika area though.

Yeah, I'll give it to you because i think he did speak. I also would have taken Kiyuri (girl who introduces Tidus to chocobos on the S.S. Likki) and Mifurey (girl in Thunder Plains Al Bhed Inn). Your turn.

Awesome, I would never have guessed the other two.

What items do you need to customize a weapon with the Overdrive ---> AP ability? Each item/quantity please.

10x: Door to Tomorrow

I am 100% sure. No doubt in my mind. I did this so many times with so many weapons. Tonberry abuse here I come lol.

Hahaha yea, I'm about to grind out a few of these myself to some of my characters.

Your question.

Cool. OK my turn:

Most One-hit KO attacks can be prevented with the use of Deathproof. There is only one monster that can kill you with one hit even if you have Deathproof. Name that monster and the move that it uses to kill you.

Dark Anima can do it with his Pain

that's right. your turn

What boss can you fight after defeating all the dark aeons (i've never actually fought him...could never beat Dark Yojimbo, Anima or Magus Sisters)

I don't even have International, but that would Penance, right?

Yeah

Okay, when you attack Lord Ochu in the Kilika Woods, after losing about half his HP he goes to sleep and starts regenerating HP. You can use a physical attack to end both the sleeping and the regen status, but what move will Lord Ochu counter with?

Earthquake I believe.

Yeah, very good, you got it.

That was automatic, I remember I brought in Valefor to avoid it. ;)

There's a trick to beating the Dark Flan in the Mt. Gagezet Caves, what is it? (if it's not named Dark Flan, it's the only Flan type enemy in the area)

Well I'm not sure if it's a trick but all I do is use Armor Break with Auron, and after that they're a cakewalk.

It's supsecptible to Silence

Yea that's right. It's not really a trick, but I remember the first time I faced one nothing was working, so I'd figure it'd stump somebody ;)

Your turn.

Okay, who has an overdrive named after a boss from a previous FF game? Name the person, the overdrive's name and where the name came from and you'll get it.

Doh, I was talking to Smarty for that, but you posted as I was typing. No worries though, I honestly never threw a Silence Buster on the Dark Flan.

As for you question, do you mean the Overdrive name? Or the individual attacks you can use each time you trigger an Overdrive? (As in Bushido for Auron, or Dragon Fang, which is one of the attacks you can use).

Would it happen to be Kimahri's 'Nova' enemy skill?

Yea that's right.

Doesn't it tell you to do that? When you scan it or something?

Doesn't it tell you to do that? When you scan it or something?

I don't think it says 'Armor Break' in it, but maybe. It was the only thing I could think of! hahaha

better then my question before ^^

Okay, sousaphone... is it Rikku's "Abaddon's Terror"?

OK it's been 3 days and nobody's responding.

Name the earliest possible time that Tidus can learn the Slayer and/or Warrior Overdrive mode.

I didn't think there was a specific time that you could learn it? Slayer is based off the number of killing blows, and Warrior is the number of times you damage the enemy (short of Overdrives or Items). Can't remember the exact numbers for Tidus.

S.S. Liki?

Anytime after being rescued from the temple by the Al Bhed? That's the only cutoff point I can think of, since I think that's the first point you can start getting into random encounters.

(Oh, and BTW, if you're going to discard a previous question, at least let people know what answer you were looking for, so that they're not in suspense anymore. Was the answer you were thinking of "Krysta"? [Yes, I looked it up.])

I'm guessing its Rikku who has the overdrive Krysta? Considering she has like a good 30 possible overdrives...

Yeah, it's Rikku, though she was well more than thirty. And I believe the one Zak meant was Abaddon's Flame.

Yes, that's what I meant. Agent's is probably what he was looking or but I should get it because mine also works and I got it without looking anything up :p

well one of you hurry and ask a question

I didn't think there was a specific time that you could learn it? Slayer is based off the number of killing blows, and Warrior is the number of times you damage the enemy (short of Overdrives or Items). Can't remember the exact numbers for Tidus.

OK, maybe my question was a little vague.

The answer I wanted to hear was at Zanarkand. At the very beginning of the game, in dream Zanarkand, in a fight you can constantly attack the Sinspawns and they will keep coming back, so you can attack them again. This way both Tidus and Auron can learn the Warrior and Slayer Overdrive modes.
Slayer is especially useful for Tidus since he can learn more overdrives by performing them, and with Slayer it is relatively easy to fill the gauge. I once got Blitz Ace by the time I reached Mi'ihen.
Anyway, I'm leaving it a free question.

How about we let Zak have it since he definitely wants a question and he was pretty close on the whole Abaddon thing?

How about we let Zak have it since he definitely wants a question and he was pretty close on the whole Abaddon thing?

Sure. He did earn it. Your question Zak.

ok well Zak isn't posting so I'm going to go ahead and ask one.

There is only 1 Dark Aeon you MUST defeat before you can earn Auron's -Tornado- overdrive, which Aeon is it?

Isn't it Valefor? I don't have the International version, but I think I saw a picture of him in front of the temple steps, which you have to go up to get that sphere.

Correct!! Your turn Seru!

Who says the line:

"It's your world now"

Should be easy ;)

It's Auron, isn't it?

Oh yea, his last line. I thought it was amazing.

Your go.

Oh yea, his last line. I thought it was amazing.

Your go.

It sure was! Why'd he have to go?? :'( Dangit!

Anyhow, please proceed ;)

The exact line is actually "this is your world now," but I didn't want to look it up until after you had said that I had the right answer.

Anyways, where, at the end of the game, can you find a kid who has taken a liking to an Al Bhed, who wants to wear a mask like one of them when goes up, and a mother who says "He'd better not be teaching him anything sacrilegious."

Oh yeah I remember that. I'm pretty sure it's in the Calm Lands.

Sorry, 'fraid it's not the Calm Lands.

its the Mi'Ihen Highroad, think its at the Agency.

Sorry, I screwed up and misread something. Totally my fault on this one-- it is the Calm Lands. This one goes to Smarty.

You got me doubting my memory for a second there. I hang out a lot in the Calm Lands :)
Anyway:
When fighting Isaaru in the Via Purifico, in what order does he summon his aeons?

Valefor, Ifrit, Bahamut I believe.

Wrong. Sorry.

It's Ifrit, then Valefor, then Bahamut

7alentine got it. One would think he summons Valefor first, but he doesn't.

Your question.

There is a special bonus that increasing one of Yuna's stats gives to one of the Magus Sisters, what is the bonus, what stat of Yuna's must you increase, and which sister receives the bonus?

Is it the Magic Pot?

I remember that Magic Pot *shivers* I would love to hear stories of how everyone's first encounter with that thing went. Would be a lot of laughs ^_^

There is a special bonus that increasing one of Yuna's stats gives to one of the Magus Sisters, what is the bonus, what stat of Yuna's must you increase, and which sister receives the bonus?

I've played this game through several times (because I adore it) and for the life of me I can't think of the answer to this one. I hope someone answers it soon because I'm all curious now.

If no answer soon can we get a hint?

I don't know the answer either-- regarding your other question, I suggest you start a topic about it if you really want to know more.

Thanks for your input Agent0042. I think I will give it a few more days and if there is no more activity here regarding the question I shall take your advice. ^_^

Erm, no, I'm telling you that talking about that is off-topic here and if you want people's responses to the Magic Pot topic, starting a new thread is what you should do.

the answer is; if you raise Yuna's STR stat to 30, it boosts Sandy's STR to 255 instantly! Also, if you raise it to 50, it gives the same boost to Anima.

open question

^So if you just take Yuna into Aurons sphere grid and bump her strength up really fast it's that easy? That's insane.

Still open question

I'll take it then.

How many missable Al Bhed Primers are there in the game?

None of them are missable because all the "missable" ones appear under a certain rock in Bikanel if you missed them, I believe. Yes, I do mean the ones on the Liki, the Al Bhed ship, Bevelle, etc.

When I say missable I mean that you only have one chance to get them. If you don't pick them up when you are at the area they're at you can't come back to get them.

And I didn't understand your post Zak...

I know that. But did you know that all of the primers that are in places you can't go back to, if you didn't pick them up, they appear under rocks/tents in Bikanel? Not many are aware of that though.

Like I missed the SS Liki one, but got it later in Bikanel. According to SI's walkthrough they all eventually are available.

I guess that includes me too. :D

You can have the question since you technically answered correctly.

Nah it's okay, I can leave the same open to what you meant, not including Bikanel.

Actually you know what, okay.

This one might be tough but fun.

What place in this game, when it's name is translated into Al Bhed, becomes an article of clothing?

I totally know this one!! I was reallly bored one day and translated some words into Al Bhed with the Primers I had!

It's Bevelle. And translates into Pajamma!! ROFLMAO

Haha yeah me too, never heard this ever mentioned anywhere else, I was also just bored one day.

Your go again!

I'm leaving it a free question. I can't think of anything decent to ask right now.

Okay then I'll ask another one.

Where can you find someone who is supposedly Tromell's sister?

The Farplane?

No.

In one of the nooks late in the game in the Macalania Woods?

Nope, unless the same person switches location, but I doubt it.

well lets move on with another question then

If you customise a Celestial weapon for Tidus (Break DMG Limit, 3x Overdrive etc) rather than finding his crest and sigil, what name and appearance does the weapon take?

You can't just move on to another to another question that quickly, it's only been a little more than a couple days since Zak originally posted his. Seems like people are so jumpy with these trivia threads these days. Let's give at least 24 more hours...

But, Zak, if you're reading, we could go for a hint. I'm completely stumped myself-- I've never heard of Tromell having a sister.

Yeah 7alentine, who the fuck do you think you are? It's usually when people guess and the person who asked doesn't respond that people do that. I was the last to post, and I was the one asking, so back off thx.

And okay, here's a hint, you can run into her very early in the game before you even know Tromell exists.

Is she encountered in Luca the first time before departing for the pilgrimage again?

Yep! Walking around in the town square. She says something about her brother working as Seymour's personal servant/bodyguard for years.

Your question Centercore!

dude there's no reason to go off at me

Yessssssss, I'm glad I remember that ;)

Okay, here's mine.. What are the species' of beasts who appear not only in Omega Ruins, but also inside Sin (including the last room just before facing Braska's Final Aeon)?

You mean beasts specifically or just any monsters?

Yea, just anything at all that you'd encounter in both ;)

In that case:
Great Malboro
Ahriman
Adamantoise
Gemini(I think)
Wraith
Demonolith

Ehhh that's all I remember.

Very close; there's one you got wrong, and a couple you missed though. But nice try!

Here's a hint; one is very, very rare in both places. So rare, in fact, that he only appears in the room just before facing Braska's Final Aeon while inside Sin, nowhere else. He's also rare in Omega Ruins.

I'm assuming the Gemini are wrong and that really rare monster must be Barbatos(or something of the sort I don't exactly remember). I didn't mention it because I don't remember encountering in the Omega Ruins.

Master Tonberry! Land Worm!

I'm wrong I know :(

And what was the monster that casted Meteor everytime it died? It may have been a Sin only monster though.

That's Behemoth King. And I think it is exclusive to Sin. Master Tonberry is exclusive to Omega Ruins. And Land Worm is exclusive to Sin I think.

Very close; there's one you got wrong, and a couple you missed though. But nice try!

Here's a hint; one is very, very rare in both places. So rare, in fact, that he only appears in the room just before facing Braska's Final Aeon while inside Sin, nowhere else. He's also rare in Omega Ruins.

Hope you're not thinking of the Land Worm, because that only appears in that one room, nowhere else in the whole game, not even Omega Ruins.

Anyway I'm pretty sure I remember fighting Gemini in the fog area before Seymour Omnis, but nowhere else inside Sin. You say Smarty got ONE wrong, and missed TWO?

Well, from what Smarty said, I'm pretty sure Ahriman is wrong, because I remember the Omega bat-eye monsters are "Floating Death". Ahriman may be inside Sin, but I doubt Omega would have two kinds of bats.

So... what Smarty said, minus Ahriman, and plus... is the Varuna one? I think I remember them in the final room with the icicles.

So my list would consist of:

Great Malboro
Varuna
Adamantoise
Gemini
Wraith
Demonolith

You sure there's another? Does it also appear only in that room? If not, I THINK Barbatos might appear in Omega on top level on one of the pillars?

Ahh, great job Zak! You're right on the money! That hidden monster is indeed the Varuna. Smarty got Ahriman wrong; the Omega Ruins' flying menace is known as the Floating Death. Great try though!

You're up Zak :D

Ouch. I really didn't think it was Varuna. And the flying monsters=fail. Anyway you're up Zak

Okay this shouldn't be too hard. What two characters' Celestial Weapons don't have anything to do with causing an aeon to break damage limit?

BTW I updated IX rumble :)

You're right it is too easy ;)

Those weapons would be Tidus' Caladbolg and Rikku's Godhand.

And nice job on updating IX rumble!

Okay, your go Smarty!

I can't even think of a half-decent question... Anyway how about this:

In Macalania lake after defeating the Al Bhed you get to ride their motorcycles (I think that's what they are) to Macalania Temple. In the game it is possible to ride with a few different characters (not counting Tidus since he's always there). Who are those characters?

This is kind of similar to FFVII where you can date more than one character in the Golden Saucer.

I've only ever taken Lulu......every time I play it. I think you can take Wakka or Rikku? (along with Lulu). I think Auron and Kimahri can't be an option because they drive a machine, iirc.

Yeah I always get Lulu every time I play it too.

You're wrong though.

Rikku, Lulu, Wakka and Kimahri

Close. But no.

I also always get Lulu. I've gotten Rikku once.

I feel like there are three... so Rikku, Yuna, and Wakka?

Yuna isn't available at the time. She's carted off after the boss fight to meet Seymour in Macalania Temple.

I'll try Rikku, Lulu, Wakka, and Auron.

Ack, did I say Yuna? I meant to type Lulu, durr. Hell I even said I got her. Hah, too late to edit, but since Seru's guess is different...

Rikku, LULU, and Wakka.

And Seru_Kai gets it!

I'm surprised that everyone thought that Auron wasn't available. Well he is. Although from what I've read it's incredibly hard to get him. As in you have to never use Lulu or Rikku and always choose the worst answers when talking to them. Well something of the sort anyway. I'm not going to delve further into it.

At any rate Seru_Kai gets it. Your go.

I'm giving it to him because he only got one extra. Wakka, who is not available. The correct answer is Rikku Lulu and Auron. No Wakka.
It probably has something to do with him being angry about Rikku being an Al Bhed. So I think that's why he's not available. But I digress.

Besides nobody else even mentioned Auron, so...

Oh, Wakka is so biased with Yevon. I always thought Auron drove one, but now I remember him asking Rikku if 'these things can drive', so I guess he could be one of the passengers. What I'm trying to say is fuck Wakka.

During you first trip, at the end of the Mi'hen Highroad you can donate various amounts of gil to the Crusaders (at the entrance to Mushroom Rock, where you get stopped initially). What are the items/gil requirements?

Whoa, I just did this three days ago. 10000 gil for a Moon Ring... Ice Lance and Scout were the other two for 1000 and 100 respectively?

And... damn, Auron really is available? You're right, guess I had no idea and assumed he wasn't. Seems he's like the Barret of that event. Any Youtube of that ride scene with Auron?

Edit: So I found the youtube clip of the ride with Auron, but WAIT! Kimahri (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmfsnsFpoNk&feature=related) is also available! Hah.

ha! I forgot about these trivia threads. I'm gonna start playing this one. Zak's right by the way. Just sayin! I'm not trying to move in on your question Zak, so please don't "go off on me".

Whaaaat? Kimahri is also available?! I used to think my sources were reliable...

oh OH! I didn't know the answer when I got it, I was just guessing ;)

Zak's question now too.

Alright, if you're giving it to me...

Which two characters have one less weapon and armor design than the other five?

Okay... I'll ask a different question, it's been five days, no one wants to answer this one.

At what point in the game is there a goof where the dialogue of all the NPCs throughout the game talks about something before it actually happened?

You mind if I answer your previous question?

If you don't, I think the answer is Auron and Rikku. I don't remember as many designs from them.

Don't mind at all! But why didn't you earlier?

And... that's precisely right on the money! Auron and Rikku both have 5 weapons and 4 armors, everyone else has 6 weapons and 5 armors.

Which leads me to wonder if it's a coincidence that they happen to be the last two to permanently join your party.

Feel free to ask a question... or if you want, guess my other question.

But just so you know, my second question WILL be the one I use next time I guess something.

I can't wait until the next question goes up. I am new to the trivia section here. Is there a time schedule or just whenever?

The custom is generally that whoever gets the correct answer to the previous question gains the right to post the next question.

Whatever question's on the table is the one you go with.

If the person who answered the question doesn't bother posting, then anyone should feel free to take it. There isn't a set time limit on waiting, just generally when people are sick of waiting it's up for grabs. But use your common sense and don't steal it too soon. Take note of the date when they were given the o-k to post and use your judgment based on that.

Also, if there's still a question on the table and people have posted guesses and the one who asked is M.I.A. not confirming or denying, then again, it's up for steal based on the same common-sense/date judgment.

But, if the person who asked the question was the last to post, there's no reason why anyone should steal it, like 7alentine did.

Anyway, Smarty isn't posting, you could have taken it if you wanted or felt it necessary. But since I'm here, I'll call it and use my second question. Scroll up to find it.

Aww I was gonna post now... Whatever it's cool. I don't think I could have thought of anything decent to ask. Can't answer your current question though Zak.

I'll take a crack at it..

Does it come at the part where Sin crashes near Bevelle? My memory's a little hazy on it now, but I seem to recall . . .

Yes!! That's exactly it! Once you get the airship, everyone in Spira has a designated dialogue, which remains the same even after you go to the highbridge.
But once "Sin" first appears as a location on the map, before you fight it, choosing it will initiate a small scene, and then you're supposed to go out on deck to fight it. But AFTER that scene and BEFORE fighting Sin, you can still explore Spira and most people's dialogue has changed, and they're talking about Sin crashing on Bevelle. Except, that doesn't happen until AFTER you fight Sin!
Yet, it's not the fight that triggers the dialogue changing, but the initiation of it. So if you choose to go to Sin, but then hold off on going to the deck to fight it and explore Spira again, then you'll see people talking about something that hasn't happened yet.

Alright, you got this one Centercore.

Yesssssss *FF victory theme*! :D At that stage of the game I knew I wasn't prepared yet for my encounter with Sin, so I ventured back out to revisit some Spira locales for a little leveling and supplies, but couldn't help but notice that people were talking about Sin in a very strange manner; it didn't really click in my head at first how wrong it was, but your question jogged my memory :D

At any rate, I think I've got one that might stump a few players, but I'll ask anyhow (note: being a fan of FFIX might help). In Luca, the first time you arrive, as in the cinematic where it shows the city for the first time, there's a camera pan which shows what appears to be the main street of Luca, where tons of people are gathering. You hear a very, very brief piece of music that is from FFIX over the loudspeakers (specifically during one of the first cinematics from that game). It's very noticeable if you're familiar with FFIX's first . . . eh, I'd say hour or so. You don't have to tell me the exact name of the song (I don't even know it), just describe the scene from FFIX that it is heard. It's only one scene, and it's toward the beginning. I'd say not even a half hour in.

Whatever question's on the table is the one you go with.

If the person who answered the question doesn't bother posting, then anyone should feel free to take it. There isn't a set time limit on waiting, just generally when people are sick of waiting it's up for grabs. But use your common sense and don't steal it too soon. Take note of the date when they were given the o-k to post and use your judgment based on that.

Also, if there's still a question on the table and people have posted guesses and the one who asked is M.I.A. not confirming or denying, then again, it's up for steal based on the same common-sense/date judgment.

But, if the person who asked the question was the last to post, there's no reason why anyone should steal it, like 7alentine did.

Anyway, Smarty isn't posting, you could have taken it if you wanted or felt it necessary. But since I'm here, I'll call it and use my second question. Scroll up to find it.

Thanks for the swift reply. The idea behind this is awesome and I can't wait to see this thread rolling again...shame I can't place the music that's being asked about now

Okay... I'll ask a different question, it's been five days, no one wants to answer this one.

At what point in the game is there a goof where the dialogue of all the NPCs throughout the game talks about something before it actually happened?

Wow this a great question...now you have me wanting to play through the game again to find that. I have a vague memory of this happening but can't place it.

Center got the question right. ;) Just scroll up to see it.

Center - Is it the scene where you fly away from the castle with Garnet and the Bomb explodes?

Very close, Seru�Kai; think just a tad bit earlier on ;)

@ EColeman24, I realize you're new here, but you need to stop double-posting. If you want to say something further but no one has said anything since your initial post, simply edit it and add to it.

If you're ever unsure about anything, always read the forum charter and never hesitate to PM (Private Message) a moderator and ask. The mods for each section are shown at the bottom of that section's screen. For instance, the mods here are Neo Xzhan and Agent0042. Hope this helps.

Hrm...maybe when Garnet jumps off the tower? I don't think that's it, but....maybe. ;)

Little further back, but oh so close!

I think I can only give one more hint without giving it away; you've only controlled two characters so far in FFIX by the time you reach the part where you hear it.

It's from that scene where Garnet is trying to escape from Zidane and grabs onto a rope and then Steiner tries to follow and well crashes to a wall.

Edit: Impecable timing. We need to stop this Centercore :p

Ahh, we must think alike, my friend ;)

Each answer keeps getting warmer and warmer, but still just a hop skip and a jump away..

I know the music you're talking about, just trying to place it... I think you're in control of Vivi at the time, is it when the theatre ship is going past overhead?

Not quite, it's a little bit after that, but you're close.

Is it the music that plays right before the play?

DING DING DING!!! Bravo! That's it! Here's vids to prove it:

Nice to see a game poke fun at FFIX for once, instead of FFIX being remembered solely for doing just that to the other games in the series. At any rate, good job Smarty!! Ask when ready! :D

Name all the places where it is possible to swim. (Excluding Blitzball and Shinryu)

Baal Temple, Besaid Island, S.S. Liki, Via Purifico, Mt. Gagazet & Zanarkand (well, you swim in the sky, but it still counts). The list should cover swiming both in and out of battle.

everything sousaphone said, plus the Moonflow (Extractor), and Bikanel's Oasis. :D

I think that's it.

Sousaphone got most of them, and then Zak added the ones he missed so I think the question goes to whoever wants it of the two (or whoever is the fastest) :)

I do have one question though: Why did you add S.S Liki? You don't get to swim there.

I do have one question though: Why did you add S.S Liki? You don't get to swim there.

You have to fight with Wakka and Tidus after the Sin attack on the way to Kilika.

Edit: I realize you don't actually swim, you only fight, but that's also true of the Moonflow Zak mentioned. ;)

I remembered that like 10 minutes after I posted and I was gonna edit but forgot :p Anyway yeah you only get to fight underwater but I guess it still counts ^_^

I guess since Smarty isn't posting a question, it means I can?

Can't really think of much... but what skill(s) does Ultima Weapon have that Omega doesn't?

I already gave you the question, man. You got the right answer along with sousaphone. I said either one of you can post.

As for your question I have absolutely no idea :p

Think Ultima had Holy and Omega didn't... also remember Ultima using statuses, Confuse and Silence come to mind.

I will say that some of those are correct and some aren't. But everything that was correct was covered so I might give it to you.

But to be fair, someone say exactly all of them, as in, no more.

Ultima Weapon has Holy & Silence, while Omega doesn't.

Precisely! Alright your go, sousa!

Okay then, What enemies can't be one-offed? Names please. :3

What do you mean one-offed? Like killed in one hit?

Can we get a hint or something? Like maybe how many there are total? Because if not, I think we need to move on. It's been well over a week and we're just not getting any action here.

I think it's because no one understands the question. It really is unclear.

Why don't we just move on, then? non-canon sousaphone seems to have forgotten about this. Anyways, I've been holding this for a while, so here goes:

Name me any two instances in which someone or something other than a member of your party is shown making use of a Save Sphere. (I know of at least three.)

Cactuar boarding your airship from Bikanel Desert

Braska in a flashback / pyrefly memory in Zanarkand

I'm interested in what the third is. ;o

Both are correct, so your turn, Meltigemini. Those were the two I figured most people would know. As for the third-- well, when you're escaping Macalania Temple, O'aka is waiting just outside. Once you leave and the Guado start pursuing you, he waves and then appears to dematerialize, so it would seem he made use of the Save Sphere to transport somewhere.

Oh yeah, it's coming back now. :p

Which Blitzball player has Hi-Risk already learnt?

This is a total guess, but is it Brother?

It's definitely not Brother. I would remember that. I use him in all my playthroughs. I'm gonna say Ropp.

Wakka? XD

Right, I'm not gonna be able to get online for a few days so I'll just leave this one, it's Zalitz. Free question to whoever gets here first ;o

Fuck I should have known that, I always use Zalitz.

Question is still free.

Okay, I'll go ahead. This probably isn't too hard, but what is the name of the Al Bhed that Rikku runs to when you first arrive at Home, the one that she asks who's attacking them. He responds "Yevon... Guado..." and then dies.

How bout a different question? It's been a long time since I played FFX and I don't remember details like that :p

Sure, doesn't look like anyone's going to get this one. Free question, then, to anyone that wants one. Oh, and the correct answer was Keyakku.

Forgot about this thread..

Something with a K, I think... Kayaku?

EDIT: all that time and a minute too late. XD I would have had it...

LOL, well, it's obvious you had the essence of the correct answer in any case (and you didn't see my post before you posted your message), so your question, if you want it.

I guess Zak doesn't want it -- it's been over two weeks, so I'm releasing it as a free question, if anyone wants to continue it.

Yeah... I can't think of one at the moment. :(

Lets not let this die... so heres a question! by the way its easy, if you know the answer.

At the very begining of the game, in the Blitzball tournement (Jecht cup i think), who are the Abes playing against?

I just started playing FFX last night :p

It's the Duggles from (insert letter that I don't remember here)-South

It sure is!

The Zanerkand Duggles.

Your turn Smarty, or whoever wants it since its been over a week...

really no ones gonna keep this alive?

the trio of chocobo knights that make a few appearances throughout, (djose temple for instance), ones is Clasko, who are the other two?? clue, both female.

Elma and Lucil?

I can't remember the captain's name quite correctly..

yep thems are the ones i was after.

Your on Scryer

I'm going to give my turn away to whoever wants it. I can't think of anything right now.

What type of creature is Sin

(within the game world, AND THE ANSWER IS NOT WHALE!)

Sin is Godzilla :)

OK, I don't know...

wrong

What type of creature? Assuming I understand, he's an aeon, isn't he?

Pyreflies? I'm pretty sure that Yu Yevon created Sin (for the first time) from pyreflies..... But I would also be that the Final Aeon is also right though.

What type of creature? Assuming I understand, he's an aeon, isn't he?

Correct. it seems somebody paid attention to Maechan's rambles. Your go.

Yeah, I've always liked Maechen. Okay, what characters' Overdrive is mentioned by name in their Scan description?

guessing here, is it Seymour?

Yep, you got it, superlusher. Your go.

okay i cant think of anything, somebody else ask one please

Okay, here's one. According to the game, who is responsible for adding the option to board the airship to the save spheres?

I assume its Brother.

No, it's not Brother.

Cid, if I remember correctly, as he did all kinds of stuff to it after Rikku salvaged it.

No, it's not Cid either.

Just guessing here, but how about Rin? It seems like the type of thing he might come up with.

Correct Agent, it is indeed Rin. You automatically receive a brief message right after getting picked up by the airship in Zanarkand that says that you can now board the airship from any savepoint thanks to Rin the Al Bhed. So your go.

Heh, neat. I really was just making an educated guess. Could you direct me to where within the game exactly that that's talked about? I'd like to learn more about that.


Hmm, a new question... okay, let's see if anyone knows this. If your party is unable to defeat the Chocobo Eater and is pushed off the cliff, who ultimately takes care of the fiend (will say so if you talk to them)?

Elma I think.

Nope, sorry, it was Clasko... j/k! :D (LOL, imagine, Clasko fighting a fiend like the Chocobo Eater.) Yeah, you got it, Techchild. Your go.

What monster is the strongest monster in the game that absorbs poison??

Marlboro?

Marlboro?

Nope

is it Demonolith? The fossil wall things in the omega ruins

No. I'll lend a clue.

a boss enshrined

dark anima?

dark anima?

yep.

3 for 3!

that was a guess btw, i didnt get the clue...

the voice of Wakka is played by John Dimaggio (also voice of Bender on Futurama), but he also plays another of the main gang members. which one?
