Of course, I try not to give moral judgment about qualities of life of other people, but since other people took liberty to judge mine, I will skip my rule - this time.

On one or two occasions someone mentioned I have no life, but reading this topic in the last few hours, I am asking myself who is it really that doesn't have a life...?? Please, try not to pass out from the shock I caused. Oh, my! Please, do not sue me at the court in Haag.

I could say that anyone who deems this quiz so important as to fight over answers or no-answers (or persons who come up with questions like these) and is even prepared to insult and strain (possible would-be) relationships because of it, that person really has no life or. putting it mildly, has quite a distorted view of (quality of) life. There is so much more to life than this.

However, it's not nice to say things like that, is it? Especially if you know they are not true.

So I'll try to give my point in a more diplomatic way:

Fact is, we all have lives, albeit very different ones.

Great speech my friend. And we will not sue you in Den Haag, since it's not a warcrime.

Just think a bit before you act next time.

Its not about the importance of the competition. Its not important at all and Tom and myself made it to entertain all members, including you Deckard. We spent OUR time making up the questions, and I'm spending MY money to give you something back for being members. By destroying it for yourself and all other members you are simply showing you have no respect for them, or my good will. But I don't have to explain this, you know it very well yourself, although the reason of why you decided to destroy it on purpose will stay known only to you.

I already gave the reason, two pages ago. Not that anyone asked, they were all busy slamming me.

Little did I know this is going to cause such a turmoil, so I have to disagree about this quiz not being important. Obviously it is very important, to some people. Too important, for my taste, but then again, who am I to argue.

The competition is irrelevant at this point. We'll come up with new questions I guess, and it certainly won't be the last competition. The turmoil is about the fact that nobody expected a member would intentionally destroy something that was created to make the forum more lively and interesting for you. Its just about team spirit and healthy competition for which, it seems, unfortunately this forum became too big. If you didn't find it entertaining, interesting or important, then you could have had enough courtesy towards other members and let them be entertained by it instead of granting yourself the right to destroy it for everyone. And please don't try to convince me that you suddenly realised that wasn't a nice thing to do only after Reup told you so.

The quiz is fun, entertaining, you ruined it, just like a cheater ruins the game on multiplayer games, or like when someone tells you an end of the book/movie before you watched it, that is lame, and everyone knows it, you were also aware of it, and try to defend yourself with useless points...
It's not that important, but it ruins fun, excitement...

Alright, let's try to put this unfortunate event behind us :P I've posted a new set of questions, we've tried to make them as challenging as the last set. Some unanswered ones from the last set have been used again. And please, for the love of god, don't post answers and ruin it. Thanks.

WTF is up with all the Batman questions now? Oh well, I guess these are a tad simpler than the previous set.

Well, one of the prizes is a Batman Forever CD so why not make it a theme
