Team Trivia

Ok, I liked this idea. So, I am starting a Team Trivia for this game as well. Here are the rules:

There will be two teams, consisting of either four or five players, depending on how many people want to be a part of this. There will be one captain, but no vice-captain. And I will be asking the questions for this competition.

There is one captain for each team. So, here is the layout:

Team 1

Captain
Member
Member
Member
Member (If necessary)

Team 2

Captain
Member
Member
Member
Member (If necessary)

Members are allowed to posts answers, and they will be counted as correct or incorrect. However, the Captain can override any answer that was given by his team, providing that I haven’t said said right or wrong yet. If Team 1 guesses, and the Captain wants to change the answer his team proposed, but I have already said correct and incorrect, then it is final. I think that would be pretty fair to do. No member is allowed to override their teams answer, <I> only </I> the Captain.

Only one guess from each team will be judged at a time. So, Members, if you are not fully sure, maybe you should just sit that question out and wait for your team to answer it. I will not accept two different answers from one team. Each team gets only one shot at each question.

In the last Team Trivia, there was a period in which one team kept guessing two or three questions correctly in a row. Thus, not giving the other team an opportunity to answer the question. So, this is how it will work:

One person, either the Captain or one of the Members, will answer the question from Team 1.

One person, either the Captain or one of the Members, will answer the question from Team 2.

And to add a little spice to the game, I will often ask more than one question at a time. After both teams have posted their answers, I will reveal who is correct and/or incorrect. Then, I will award points accordingly.

Got it?

well i guess it’s going to be on Final Fantasy X then.

Well, of course.

<B> 1_W1nged_Angel, </B> are you going to play?

Yup, count me in!

Wow, if you can actually get enough people in this, then I’m in. Welcome to Greed.

Just do what you did with your Champions on FF battle, PM a few people asking them to join in.

Sounds fun. I’d like in.

Ok, so far we have three people who have said they would play. I guess that teams will only be four members then, and possibly only three since we aren’t getting too big of a response.

So, do any of you three want to be one of the Captains? Do you care what team you are on, and who you will be with?

I guess I’ll give my usual and say that I’ll be a Captain, but only if nobody else wants to. It doesn’t matter to me which team I’m on.

Oh, and you should consider 1_Winged’s suggestion and do the PM thing so that we can get more people here.

count me in 2

im in!

Ok, we now have five members. We still have slots open for more, so if anyone else is interested, just say so.

I’m in, I guess.

I may need reminding though.

i doubt i’d be any good at being a captian. but if the need arises i guess i may be able to fill that spot.

Well, here is how the teams are looking right now:

Team 1 Captain-<B>Agent0042 </B>

Member #1-1_W1nged_Angel
Member #2-Prak
Member #3-Ac-ace0
Member #4-Yet to be determined

Team 2 Captain-<B>TBA </B>

Member#1-ieatmako
Member#2-FFX-2 Al Bhed Gal
Member #3-Yet to be determined
Member #4-Yet to be determined

As you can see, Team 1 is probably finished, unless we get enough people to add. And Team 2 probably only needs two more members, unless I say that there are five people per team.

NOTE: Each captain’s name will be in bold, so that all teammates recognize them as having the power!

<B>1_W1nged_Angel</B>, I will keep that in mind.

….Smokey are you partcipating or are you the Judge guy?

I think that answers your question. I figured that it would be unfair for me to play, because I would be greedy and try to answer all the questions. But, since I won’t be using my knowledge of FFX with answers, I’ll use it in the form of questions.

Sounds good to me.

ill play!

I guess…I gues, I’ll play too.

NOTE: Also, for any people that are already on a team, or who may be on a team, it would be better for you to come and visit often. I mean, it wouldn’t be fair to Team 1, if everyone except for <B> Agent </B>, only came a few times a week. That right there would pretty much ruin the competition. It would be great if all team members would visit as much as possible.

Get what I’m saying?

EDIT: Now of course, I can’t force you to make frequent stops to this thread. I’m just saying, that I want all team members to be devoted to this Team Trivia.

I have no problem doing captain duty. I check in frequently enough and know my stuff pretty well. However, let it be known that I am impartial. If there’s someone who really wants to do it, they can have it.

I guess I’ll join up. 😀

Well, I thought about it. If there�s still a open space, I�ll join too. Let�s try….;)

Ok, it looks as if we are about ready to start this thing. Here are the latest Team updates:

Team 1 Captain-<B>Agent0042</B>

1_W1nged_Angel
Aerith Gainsborough
Ac-ace0
cecil12

Team 2 Captain-<B>Vivi FF</B>

ieatmako
FFX-2 Al Bhed Gal
Prak
alhana

And there you have it folks! If anyone wishes to speak, do so now! Want to switch teams? Better speak up! If there are no problems, then these are the final teams. No one else can join, because, well, you had your time to.

Actually, don’t speak up, just use a PM instead. sexpot

Who-hoo I’m a captain! 😀 You four: ieatmako, FFX-2 Al Bhed Gal, Prak, and alhana, I hope you know your stuff. 😀 Odds on outsmarting Agent, the FF master, are slim, but we can do it. 😀 Good luck!

All right then, everyone, good luck! Let’s have a fair game – in other words, no looking things up. You have to go on your own knowledge. Right, Smokey?

Let’s play!

When do we begin?

As soon as Smokey is ready.

Better watch out Vivi FF cause were going to beat you. hehehe

Well im just going to say, Good luck to both teams and lets have a clean fight.

im ready when you are good luck ppl

i cant wait 2 begin!

Hmm… I got switched, huh? No matter, I guess.

Let’s do this!

What is that supposed to mean?

Anyways, I guess that we are ready to start this thing. And here we go. The FFX Team Trivia is now officially underway!

Q: Is it possible to acquire Yojimbo for under 200,000 gil?

NOTE: If there is still confusion about any of the rules, just ask, and I’ll answer them.

Yes, you can bid him slightly lower than that.

Ok, Team 2 has submitted their anwer for this question. Only <B> Vivi FF </B> is allowed to change the answer if he thinks it is wrong. I will not listen to anyone elses answer from Team 2, except for <B> Vivi</B>’s

Yes, you can depemding on how you answer his question and by how much you bid on him for.

I accept 1_W1nged’s answer.

What is that supposed to mean?
I just mean that if someone wanted to, there are a lot of sites out there that you can go to like GameFAQs and such and get the answer. Or you could check the game directly. But you agree that we shouldn’t do that, right?

Originally posted by Agent0042
<B>I accept 1_W1nged’s answer. </B>

Alright, Team 1 has their answer locked in as yes. It can no longer be changed. I will wait a little while longer to see if Tony wants to accept the answer given by <B>Prak</B>

<B> I just mean that if someone wanted to, there are a lot of sites out there that you can go to like GameFAQs and such and get the answer. Or you could check the game directly. But you agree that we shouldn’t do that, right? </B>

Well yes, I agree that none of you guys should look on the internet or something to find the answer. I want to see how much knowledge you guys have of this game, without cheating. I can only ask that you please play fair and responsibly. I can’t force you not to cheat, because I have no idea of knowing if you are or not.

But, I would urge everyone to use their brains for the answers.

EDIT: Let me revise the rules again. Everyone from a team is allowed to post their answer to a question. But, here is the thing:

I only check the first answer from a team, <B>or</B> the answer that the Captain has approved of.

Make more sense now?

I’m sorry but until the 21st of July i cant be here. A very important family commitment came up which i need to attend to. I might occasionally be on though.

Hey its my 700th post 😀

OK, I’ll accept that answer. I don’t know for sure, but everyone else seems sure. 😀 And I think I remember some people talking about getting him for around 190,000. So OK, I’ll accept it.

Ok, I have both Captain’s approval, and both teams are correct!

Team 1-1

Team 2-1

Q: How many total sphere nodes are on the Sphere Grid?

I can honestly say I have no clue, so I’m going to wait and see if one of my team-members has any answer they wanna post.

1_W1nged – I understand. In that case, would you mind if somebody else wanted to play?

I don’t know where you pulled that question from, but you’d have to either be inhuman or extraordinarily anal retentive to know that.

Actually, I just counted.

So then can we agree then that this isn’t anything that anyone’s going to reasonably know offhand, toss out this question, and get something new out there?

Or, someone could have just turned on the game, and counted them all. So, it is an easy answer to figure out, just that it takes a while to get it.

Q: We all know that Tidus’s Legendary Weapon is the Caladbog. The Caladbog relates to a legendary sword, and a legend himself.

What is the name of the sword that the Caladbog relates to?

Who’s sword was it, meaning who wielded this legendary sword?

it relates to king arthurs excalibur i think

Caladbolg is believed to be the basis for the stories of Excalibur.

It was wielded by a man named McRoich(sp?).

Captains, do you accept these answers? If not, then you must reject them, and you are the <I>only</I> people allowed to give an answer. After you have given an answer, if it turns out that way, then I will judge.

I’m going to accept. That’s the only thing I can think of too, although I don’t really know for sure.

Alright, Team 1’s final answer is:

Caladbog relates to King Authur’s Excalibur.

Awaiting for Team 2.

NOTE: Does everyone like how I am doing this so far?

i’ll also say King Arthur’s Excaliber

OK I’ll accept the answers but time them all togther, cause we have like two different sides.

Answer: The Caladbolg is believed to be the basis for the stories of King Arthur’s Excalibur. The Caladbolg itself was wielded by a man named McRoich (or whatever the spelling is). The Excalibur was wielded by King Arthur.

Thanks to Prak and FFX-2 Al Bhed Gal.

This question is confusing. I dunno if it was explained in the game or somethign else.

And my team, feel free to PM or post what you think the answers are. If someone said your answer, post to confirm it. 2 people with the same answer will help me out better than one.

NOTE: Does everyone like how I am doing this so far?
Actually, that was something I wanted to comment on, and I think I finally have it figured out. Wouldn’t it be better if you asked one team their own question, and then asked the other team a different question? Or you could ask two separate questions at the same time. I do realize that would be double the work on you, but it seems more logical. Because it seems to me that with the way it is right now, it could basically end up that the other team just parrots the other’s answer, because they’re both publically answering the same question.

Vivi FF – do you agree it would be better that way?

Yeah, I agree with that. Cause I know I’m not looking at your team’s answers, but maybe others from either team would. I would probably go with two different questions at the same time. And also, the questions should be fair and take place at the same time. So if one team answers a question within the first minute, they can’t move on to the next question until the other team is done with theirs. That way, a team won’t get massive points just cause their members are around longer.

Yeah, that’s what I was thinking too. You cool with that, Smokey?

Actually, I asked how I was doing, because I thought that I was going about it pretty crappy. I just wanted to see if anyone else agreed with me on it. Yes, one team could post the answer, and then the other team just say the exact same answer, only worded different. That is a problem. So, I have decided to fix it. It isn’t really double the work at all. I would just have to spend a little more time thinking about how to conspire the questions fairly to both teams. I suggest this:

I ask one question to Team 1, and then a completely different question to Team 2. I will try my best to not make it seem like one question is easier than the other. But, if that happens, there is really not much that I can do about it. So, here we go. And, oh yes, I have changed the team names:

Team Agent-2
Team Vivi-2

Even though I was going to award two points for answering both questions, I figured that I should just keep it at one. But, I will always ask the same number of questions to each team. Never will one team get the opportunity to earn more points than the other team from their questions. And, I will tell you ahead of time how many points you can get for each question. If I ask two questions at once to both teams, it is possible to get one point.

Here we go with the new and improved question asking to each team thingy:

Once you unlock the final monster inside the Monster arena, a very special item becomes available to your party. You can purchase this item from the guy standing right next to the Save Sphere at the Monster Arena.

Team 1 Question-What is the name of this item?
Team 2 Question-How much does this item cost?

Ok, each team will have 24 hours to post their answer. I think that is fair, since what are the odds that all five members of a team don’t visit for that period of time? I find it extremely unlikely. So, I suggest that if a team has not answered their question by the time I am ready to announce the results (24 hours), then they automatically do not earn the point.

Now, does ALL of this sound fair, or is there something else that I have overlooked?

What? Knowing the price is so much harder than knowing the name! lol

I dunno how it’s drilled into my head (darn you SG!), but it’s 10,000 gil, right team?

*not final answer, yet*

Yeah, Vivi FF, I agree that you guys got hosed on that one.

I am 95% sure the answer on my team’s is Clear Sphere, which lets you clear a node from the sphere grid and replace it with something else. What it does, I am sure of, but I’m not 100% sure on the name. So if somebody else on my team could confirm, I’d appreciate that too.

I, personally, am slightly confused with the question (I understand it, but it could have been worded differently for better comprehention).

Since someone killed my team, or they are ignoring me, or some other stuff, I’m going to keep my answer at 10,000 gil.

I wish my team would talk up more. *HINT HINT*

im such a trend setter 😀

Yeah, I’m just going to confirm my answer too. Everyone must be away for the weekend or something.

I don’t get it. If you unlock the item, then you would find out the name and price of it an once. I don’t understand how Team Vivi got hosed on that one. I mean, both answers can be found at the same time.

Or maybe that is just how I see it. I purchased the item so many times, that I know everything about it. Still, I don’t understand how you couldn’t know the price of it, but you do know the name.

Oh well…

The name of the item is the Clear Sphere. Congrats Team Agent.
The Clear Node costs 10,000 gil. Congrats, Team Vivi.

Team Agent-3
Team Vivi-3

Team Agent question-What must you do in order to acquire Rikku’s Legendary Weapon, the Godhand?

Team Vivi question-What must you do in order to acquire Yuna’s Legendary Weapon, the Nirvana?

Hopefully these questions are fair to both teams.

Because if you ask me (and I think if you asked Vivi FF as well), the name is something that’s a lot more memorable. Because I mean, say for example, you were to ask me "what’s the name of the item specifically for curing Poison status?" I’m going to be able to tell you right off that’s an Antidote, but hell if I know what it costs.

Oh, and one other thing. The name of the item is Clear Sphere, at least according to my copy of the U.S. English version of the game, which I just checked. I don’t know what reference you’re referring to, but if you wanna check without loading the game, just go to Google, type in "Clear Sphere" "Final Fantasy X" and compare that with how many hits you get for "Clear Node" "Final Fantasy X."

Point please. I’m going to see if my team has any thoughts on this question before saying anything.

Ah, I see your point now. Well, I’ll try to stay away from questions like that again.

You know what? I was probably thinking that Clear Node was the name of the item, while in reality it "Clears Node from Sphere Grid". So, I probably just got them mixed up. I don’t have the game with me, and I actually now remember it saying Clear Sphere. The item is at the very bottom of what you can buy, and the Clear Sphere "Clears Node" from Sphere Grid. So, my mistake. Sorry <B>Agent</B>.

EDIT: Antidotes costs 50 gil. sexpot

The biggest problem with that last kind of question is that it requires one team to know both answers. To be honest though, I was useless on that question because I never even knew such a sphere existed.

As for the new one though:
The monster arena owner gives you the Nirvana after you capture every type of fiend on the Calm Lands.

Did you want to know where the sigil and crest come from also?

Nope, your answer is all I need for now.

I knew about this item, but I didn�t know the name of it. Well, translated it would be "detonation sphere" or something like that. But I didn�t know of the name "clear sphere", so I was useless on that question, too. 😉

Ok I’m just going to go out and accept that but expand on it a little:

After capturing at least one of every monster in the Calm Lands, the Monster Arena Guy will award you with access to a treasure chest near the front of the Arena. Once you get the Celestial Mirror, you can use it to open the trasure chest wich contains Yuna’s Nirvana.

If we need to describe how to power it up (the question doesn’t say we do), then tell us so we can add to it.

Where are the other three on our team…? They didn’t do as much. Still, feel free to comfirm or offer help to our answers.

I accept this as your final answer.

<B>If we need to describe how to power it up (the question doesn’t say we do), then tell us so we can add to it.</B>

Nope, you have answered my question fully. Now all you guys have to do is sit back and relax.

In the interest of keeping things moving, I’m going to go ahead and answer for my team, because I remember now. (By the way, Vivi FF – having said that you got hosed on the price question, I was impressed that you were able to get the answer. Good work.)

The Godhand is fairly easy to get. Once you’ve got access to use the password feature for the Airship to unlock locations, you just go into it and put in GODHAND. It accepts the password and then a new location in the Bikanel Desert that I believe is called Sanubia Sands lights up on the destination selector. You go there and I’m pretty sure there’s a treasure chest there and you open it up to get Godhand.

This is my final answer.

I have these as the Team’s confirmed answers. And once again, both are correct!

Team Agent-4
Team Vivi-4

I’m trying to think of questions that you guys don’t know, but also ones that don’t hose a specific team in the process.

Team Agent question-There is a strongest attack in the game. What is the <I>exact</I> damage number that this attack is <I>possible</I> of taking away?

Team Vivi question-One of Auron’s Overdrives is the Banishing Blade. Name all the Status Ailments that this attack inflicts on enemies.

All 4 breaks, right? Anything else? (*is not completely sure, yet*)

Originally posted by Vivi FF
<B>All 4 breaks, right?</B>

Do you mean Power Break, Mental Break, Magic Break, and Armor Break?

<B>Anything else?</B>

There might be, then again, there might not be. You can either confirm the 4 breaks as the answer, or wait for your team.

Originally posted by Vivi FF

I think that is correct. The limit does, magic break, power break, armor break, and mental break. I’m sure of it! ( hopefully!)

OK, I will confirm our answer as:

Auron’s Bushido Overdrive afflicts the following status effects on its target: Power Break, Magic Break, Armor Break, and Mental Break.

Oh no, will Agent’s team ever answer? 😉

Gah. Where is my team? I swear they all just quit. And I think I know the answer, but it would be helpful if I could have some kind of confirmation. Or if they could answer sometimes. It would be nice not to be the only person answering. I guess I’m just going to have to PM them all and see if I can rally the troops, maybe prod them or something.

Edit: And yes, I am aware that 1_Winged is away. He has an excuse, the others don’t.

well just a guess but 99,999 is max damage i think so yea and i had an excuse too we were gettin carpet in my house and the comp wasnt plugged in so …

Okay, thanks for the update on that. I understand.

As for the answer, I’m afraid I’m going to have to reject. I know that 99,999 is the max damage on any single hit, but I think Smokey is trying to trick us by referring to the attack.

Now, as far as I know, the strongest attack, at least in the U.S. version, is Wakka’s Attack Reels. I think that’s 99999 * 21 which is 2,099,979 damage. Sound right to everyone, or do I have the number wrong? Or does Mindy’s attack, Pasada I believe it is, do more damage?

I’m just going to guess that Passada or Passado or however you spell it hits for 15 times for a potential (although not likely) 1,499,985 damage and make that my final answer.

Ok, I hate to say it, but we have our first incorrect answer of the competition:

Team Agent-4
Team Vivi-5

To answer Team Agent’s question;

Passado is the strongest attack in the game. It is capable of dealing damage of 99,999 x16, which would total 1,599,984. <B>Agent</B>, you missed it by only 1! 🙁

It was still a great guess, considering how your team is isn’t helping you too much.

Team Agent Questions-What item is needed to Customize Magic Defense +10% to your armor?

What item is needed to Customize Defense +10% to your armor?

Team Vivi Questions-What item is needed to Customize Magic +10% to your weapon?

What item is needed to Customize Strength +10% to your weapon?

Ok, two questions for each team, thus you could earn two points if you correctly answer both questions.

HINT: Each answer requires a specific type of Sphere.

I suck when it comes to rememberng customize items. I’m definitely going to have to hope that maybe, just maybe, somebody on my team can help me here, or so long to another two points.

Yeah, I have no idea either. At first I was going to say like Stamina Springs, cause that’s what stuck out in my head, but since it’s a sphere, I have no idea.

I’m guessing Mana Spheres and Power Spheres, but I have no idea. Team?

Skill sphere for strength. I’m sure of that one.

Dunno about the magic one though. We know the answers are all spheres though since Smokey said so. I’d say it’s probably black magic spheres or white magic spheres. More likely to be black, I think.

OK then, we know the Strength +10% needs a Skill Sphere. Is any one positive about Magic +10%? If not, then we would go with a Black Magic Sphere. Speak up.

Originally posted by Vivi FF

You do need a black magic sphere to get magic +10%.

OK Final Answer:

To customize Strength +10% on a weapon, you need to use 1 Skill Sphere.

To customize Magic +10% on a weapon, you need to use 1 Black Magic Sphere.

I feel sorry for Agent’s team.

Well, since I’m not getting any help, I’m going to try an educated guess.

For Magic Defense, I’m going to guess that you need one White Magic Sphere. For Defense, I’m going to guess one Power Sphere.

Now taking volunteers for new team members. Anybody? Anyone?

Ok, let’s see here:

Team Agent-5

Yes, a White Magic Sphere is required to customize Magic Defense +10%. However, you need a Special Sphere to customize Defense +10%. At least you got one point. sexpot

<B>Now taking volunteers for new team members. Anybody? Anyone?</B>

Hey, since you are the Captain, you are allowed to change team members if you want. It is entirely your decision.

Team Vivi-7

You guys answered both questions correctly. Good job!

<B>Team Agent question</B>-What is the name of the item required to customize Break HP Limit?

How many of this item do you need exactly to be able to customize Break HP Limit?

<B>Team Vivi question</B>-What is the name of the item required to customize Break MP Limit?

How many of this item do you need exactly to be able to customize Break MP Limit?

Dammit. I know what makes BHPL, but I have no idea about BMPL.

What kind of captain am I, when I don’t know half of these answers. Well, customizing has never been my strong point.

I’m guessing it’s one of those useless things. And about 30 or 60 of them. Haha, I really narrowed down the choices. Team?

I know the answer of the question! To get break MP limit you have to have 30 of the item Three Stars.

Well, I have problems with the translation. In our game this item calls "Gigantenfl�gel", which would be "giantwing", but I�m sure this is wrong. It has probably a different name….

Agent0042, help me! The item you need there is the item, you can win at the temple Remium, or at the monsterfarm (from underwater dragon).

You need 30 of those…..

OK, I’ll accept alhana’s answers.

Item: Three Stars
Number: 30

It makes sense. I remember now.

I believe Aerith Gainsborough is talking about what’s known in the U.S. version as Wings to Discovery. I’m going to accept that answer.

Item: Wings to Discovery

You are correct! Great assist by Brigitte on that one.

And you are correct as well! This time, Captains needed help from their teammates.

<B>Team Agent question</B>-This is after you have acquired the Airship. On the World Map, there is a secret location at these coordinates:

X Coordinate is 12~16
Y Coordinate is 41~45

What is the name of this location?
What weapon do you find there?
Who is the only one that can equip this weapon?

<B>Team Vivi question</B>-On the World Map, there is a secret location at these coordinates:

X Coordinate is 29~32
Y Coordinate is 73~76

What is the name of this location?
What weapon do you find here?
Who is the only one that can equip this weapon?

Yes, that is right. You can earn up to three points this time, meaning Team Agent could take the lead!

I don’t think the captain of my team is here. So I’ll answer the question.

Name of location: Besaid Falls
weapon you find; Dragoon lance
person you equip weapon to: Kimarhi.

I’ll wait for the captain to confirm the answers. And I’ll give the other team a chance to answer as well. Good luck everyone!

Since I have no idea what the answer could be (I’m doubting if I even have a strong point in this trivia), then I’ll accept alhana’s answer. 🙂

I’m having a feeling that one of the future questions will have to deal with Rikku’s Mix Combinations.

I think, the location is Sanubia desert, and you�ll find "Askaron" there. That�s the sword for Tidus (with the double AP).

Agent0042, help! Is that the right name for this sword? Or is it the real name for the desert? Please check my answers. Thanks. 😉

Hmm, I guess I’m going to go with that. I think the exact name of the location is Sanubia Sands. Smokey, will you accept our answer on the weapon even if that’s not the U.S. name for it, given that we pinned it down to it being a Double AP weapon for Tidus?

dunno if spelling counts but i think it’s Ascalon just in case

<B>Agent</B>, I’ll need your final answer, and then I can post the results. You have some new information to work with.

Yeah, sure. That answer sounds right to me, so I’m going to go with it.

Team Agent-10

Yes, I would have accepted Askaron or Ascalon, seeing as how they are pretty much the same name. I realize that some of you guys have the International version, and some have the original. So, if I can understand what answer you are trying to say, then I will count it.

<B>Team Agent question</B>-How much gil does it cost to fight Don Tonberry in the Monster Arena?

<B>Team Vivi question</B>-How much gil does it cost to fight Nemesis in the Monster Arena?

I’m thinking either 25,000 gil, 30,000 gil, or 35,000 gil. Dunno if either is right.

Prices are also not one of my strong points. 🙁

I was thinking closer to 100,000 gil for Don Tonberry, but I guess that’s not really reasonable. Now that I think about it some more, 10000 actually seems to be sticking in my mind. Team members – that sound right to you?

Im back, Did i miss anything? Update me please people, i need info!

Don Tonberry is not that expensive, I think.

It�s either 8000 Gil or 10000 Gil…. I�m going for 8000 Gil.

I’m going with 25,000 gil. I don’t think Nemesis is that expensive. Plus it seems like a better rounded number.

Without my team, I’m useless. 🙁

There should be a team Trivia in FFIX. I would so rock in that. Although, I don’t know any of the prices, etc. Aargh.

It think maybe it could be 8,000 gil, so I’m going to make that our team’s final answer. Don’t worry, though, it’s no big deal if it turns out to be 10000.

Im back, Did i miss anything? Update me please people, i need info!
Welcome back, 1_W1nged. Since you’ve been gone, our team has fallen just a little bit behind. We’re still doing pretty well, though. You can browse through the past few pages to find out about the questions you missed while you were gone.

Good thing you didn’t go with 10,000 gil, or else that would have been incorrect

It’s smart that you didn’t go with 30,000 or 35,000 as well.

Team Vivi-13

Alright, I wonder when Team Vivi is going to miss a question and give Team Agent a chance to catch up?

<B>Team Agent question</B>-How much MP does Ultima cost to cast?

<B>Team Vivi question</B>-How much MP does Auto-Life cost to cast?

it takes 97 MP to cast auto-life

I think it costs approx 90Mp to cast Ultima.

Originally posted by FFX-2 Al Bhed Gal

Are you sure it’s 97? Cause I think all spells are an even number so when you equip a Half MP Cost equipment, it breaks off even. But I could be wrong.

I’m thinking 96, 98, 100, or 102. I’m leaning towards 96 though, but a part of me wants to go for 102. But I’m not sure.

Originally posted by FFX-2 Al Bhed Gal

I think it does cost 97….

OK, 2 beats 1. We’ll go with 97.

I’m inclined to believe 90 MP is right, because I know that Auto-Life is indeed more expensive thatn Ultima. I guess I’ll just go with that and make it our final answer.

Correctamundo!

Team Vivi-14

Ok, here we go with the next round of questions:

<B>Team Agent question</B>-If you were to cast Haste and Hastega, how much total MP would it cost?

<B>Team Vivi question</B>-If you were to cast Slow and Slowga, how much total MP would it cost?

I’m starting to work my way up to harder questions.

Haste 8 ,Hastega 30
so 38Mp all together

I’ll take that as my team’s final answer. Thanks Ac. Anyone else getting tired of number questions?

Yeah, MP questions kick my butt. Especially ones about spells I never really used.

I’m thinking Slow is 6 and Slowga is 26. I have no idea though, but since you get Slow before Haste, maybe it’s cheaper? Any thoughts?

slow is 12 mp and slowaga is 20
so the answer is 32

Oooo, we would have gotten the same answer… 🙂

OK, I’ll take 32.

i think that is correct…. I’m not sure though.

Team Agent-13

Ok, it’s time to mix up the category of the questions now.

<B>Team Agent question</B>-Name one of the two locations in which you can loan O’aka gil.

<B>Team Vivi question</B>-Same question, but you can’t answer the same as the other team if they answer first.

Luca & and the S. S. Liki

Ok, <B>Team Agent</B> must come up with the other location.

Ok, Team Agent must come with the other location
Whee! But didn’t FFX-2 Al Bhed Gal just give both locations? I’m pretty sure he’s still after some gil in Luca. When you’re searching for Yuna after the kidnapping. After that, I know that he shows up again on the Mi’ihen Oldroad. Not sure if he’s still after gil at that point, though I think he might be.

Actually, when she said Luca and the S.S. Liki, she wasn’t referring to both answers. I’m not going to say whether that answer is correct or not yet. But, I think she meant that you could loan O’aka gil on the S.S. Liki while you are still in Luca. Therefore, that would signify one location:

In Luca, aboard the S.S. Liki is her answer. I’ll accept that as soon as <B>Vivi FF</B> confirms it.

There are 10 locations in which you can meet O’aka and make purchases from him. However, there are only two locations in which you can loan him gil. So you have to come up with the other one.

You can’t get back on the boat from Luca until later in the game, but I doubt O’aka is still there.

So I’m going to say on the S.S. Liki on the way to Luca (not exactly atLuca).

Aren’t there three places? I mean there are two different boats…

Yeah, now that you mention it, I’m pretty sure it’s the Winno that’s bound for Kilika. But I don’t recall O’aka showing up until the Liki. And I know that he shows up in both Luca and the Mi’ihen Oldroad, but I don’t recall for sure if he’s accepting any donations in Luca, although something tells me that he is. Team members – any ideas here?

I clearly remember of only two locations in which you can lend O’aka gil. And after both teams have submitted their answers, I will explain it to you.

But there is <I>only</I> two locations in which you loan gil to O’aka.

Well, no point in holding this up any longer. I’ll just say that he’s still after some gil in Luca like I said before and let the chips fall where they may.

Yeah, I’ll still say the S.S. Liki.

<I>Originally posted by Vivi FF</I>

Yes, that is one of the locations where you can loan gil to O’aka.

Yes, that is one of the four locations.

Team Agent-14

I fixed the error for you Agent. 🙂

<B>Team Agent question</B>-Name five of the locations in which you can purchase from O’aka.

<B>Team Vivi question</B>-Name five of the other locations in which you can purchase from O’aka.

CORRECTION: There are in fact only 10 locations, instead of the 11 that I mentioned earlier. The 11th location is in fact Wantz, O’aka’s brother.

You can’t name the same location as the other team either. So, this could be a great possibility for you guys to earn some massive points. And if I can guess which location you are trying to state, then I will give you credit.

I’m gonna get in my answer quickly, and then maybe I’ll edit my post:

Locations where you can make purchases:

– Luca – he’s on the path after Yuna is kidnapped

– Mi’ihen Oldroad – if you don’t earn a chocobo, or if you do a get chocobo and then backtrack, you can find him here.

– Mushroom Rock – he’s hawking his goods right before Operation Mi’ihen, talking about how he’s going to make a fortune. But, of course, you get a discount.

– Maclania Woods – path area right before the Macalania Travel Agency and the place where Auron hacks through

– Maclania Temple – he will sell to you right before you make your escape

Edit: I’m still not entirely certain that there are only two locations you can donate to O’aka. But since I can’t seem to find any proof of my theory for right now, I’m just going to pipe down. Carry on, everyone.

Those are the ones I knew!!! Aargh!!!

I don’t like these first-come-first-serve-based questions…

You can purchase from him in the Moonflow (South Bank, I think), and Guadosalem. Maybe in Thunder Plains, but I’m not sure. Maybe, the Winno (doesn’t he sell like potions?).

Eh… Help?

And I know for sure you can donate gil to him at the Mi’ihen Highroad. Even if I am helping the other team by saying that…

It’s okay, Vivi FF. I just found out myself that you can donate to him in Luca too, the exact place where I said. I don’t know, Smokey – maybe if you’ve already given him enough, he won’t ask for anymore. But he definitely does ask at Luca, and again on the Mi’ihen Highroad.

HOLY CRAP! I just messed up again. There are in fact four locations in which you can loan gil to O’aka. I’m so sorry guys:

S.S. Liki
S.S. Winno
Luca, at Dock 1
Mi’ihen Highroad, right by the gates to Mushroom Rock.

I am really sorry. Point for <B>Team Agent</B>

I have 3 locations:

– Moonflow (I believe South Bank on the screen)

– Guadosalem (at the Guado item store)

– Macalania Travel Agency (either inside or outside, he complains that Rin set up a nice place to scalp prices cause of the Seymour/Yuna thing)

I am 99.99999% sure those 3 are right. We need two more. So team, do you know the last 2? Otherwise, I’d have to guess and we might lose our lead.

ok i have the other 2 locations

1) moonflow north bank

2) the bevelle highbridge right b4 u fight seymour the 2nd time

Ok then, I’ll accept my 3 answers and Al Bhed Gal’s 2. 🙂

Haha, I remember those two locations now…

Alrighty, let’s see here. These are the ten locations:

1. Guadosalam-O’aka is located in the item shop. (+1 Vivi)

2. Highbridge-He is along the path before you fight Seymour Natus and Mortibody. (+1 Vivi)

3. Lake Macalania-O’aka is right outside of the travel agency. (+1 Vivi)

4. Macalanina-He is outside the temple. (+1 Agent)

5. Macalania Woods-O’aka is in the area right before you battle Spherimorth. (+1 Agent)

6. Moonflow-He is in the area right before you board the Shoopuf. (+1 Vivi)

7. Mooflow-You will find O’aka here right after you get off the Shoopuf. (+1 Vivi)

8. Mi’ihen Highroad-He is near the entrance to Mushroom Rock Road. (+1 Agent)

9. Mushroom Rock Road-Right before your big confrontation with Sin, O’aka is near for help. (+1 Agent)

10. Luca-O’aka is located outside of the Stadium. (+1 Agent)

Wow, both teams earn the maximum points for this round! And I thought that was a hard question.

Team Agent-19

Team Vivi-21

There is still only a narrow gap between the two, but let’s see if we can get a new leader here soon.

<B>Team Agent question</B>-What item is the result of mixing two Potions together?

<B>Team Vivi question</B>-What item is the result of mixing two Hi-Potions together?

I’m seeing double, something’s not right.

Isn’t it called Vitality? The thing that double’s a random character’s max HP?

yea i agree that it is Vitality

OK, I’m going to confirm it.

Any of my team around? I could use a little help here.

Well, in my game-version you’ll get a Ultra-potion, if you mix two potions together….. 😉

Yeah, that sounds right. Ultra-Potion, or whatever fancy name for it. You get the point, Smokey. Accept.

Ooh, right again. Who would have guessed it?

Ok, the score is now 22-20, in favor of Team Vivi. And now I am going to ask you guys what I can do to rejuvinate this competition. Personally, I think it’s getting stale. So, I would like to do something to spice things up. That, and I need time to think of more questions.
