CAA Birthday Trivia Quiz

Well, I'm happy to say that this fall marks CAA's third year in existance. It's been a long, fun road thus far, and hopefully we still have a long, bright future ahead of us. But, to add a little flair to the time, I thought it'd be fun to have a quiz about CAA, its founder, and maybe some of the staff/members. Thus this thread was born. After a week, I will post the correct answers and who knows, the winner might just get a prize!

1. Ashley is a native Texan, true or false?
2. Gypsy was the first administrator/mod, true or false?
3. Name the four staffers whose first names all start with the letter A.
4. CAA was originally:
A- a webring
B- a fanfic club
C- a blog listing
5. Shooraijin and OldPhilosopher are brothers, true or false?
6. The first layout for CAA featured which anime series?
7. What was Ashley's original online alias, and why did she change it?
8. How many "best" contests (couple, anime, bishoujo, bishounen) has CAA had?
9. Development is the official name for the dancing banana, true or false?
10. Identify these staff members:
- this girl once had hairbeads
- this guy is a college proffessor
- this girl was the first original CAA member (hint: besides Ashley)
- this guy advocates a "meet market" every year
- this girl has a reputedly crazy Aunt C.
- this guy has an earring named Skullbeard
- this girl had a pet lizard
- this guy has been known to have a penchance for Jessica Biel
- this guy has an older sister
- this guy has been known to decieve us all

Meh, I don't see why not Nette. I mean, you could get the staff ones all right, but what the heck, why not?

Are these only staff members? Or are some of these answers also the older members who are not on staff?

Great idea, Ashley. ^__^

No, these are current staffers only, though it was suggested I make a "former staffer but is not one now" question, which would go to Archan.

Maybe I should wait for Shiroi's answers. *hehe* :sweat: Anyway, I'll just post my guesses.

1. Ashley is a native Texan, true or false? [color=blue]True
2. Gypsy was the first administrator/mod, true or false? False
3. Name the four staffers whose first names all start with the letter A.
[/color]

[color=blue]Ashley, Aaron, Ami, Annette
4. CAA was originally:
A- a webring

5. Shooraijin and OldPhilosopher are brothers, true or false? False, I think they’re best friends
6. The first layout for CAA featured which anime series? Outlaw Star or Record of Lodoss War
7. What was Ashley's original online alias, and why did she change it? Riana
[/color]

She changed, according to Ashley, because: [color=blue]“[/color][color=black][font=Verdana][color=blue]Riana sounded so pretty. But then I let my pseudonym become a way of escaping and it tempted me to do/write things I wouldn't normally do/write in my Christian life. And plus, if I shared with people at school about CAA, I wanted them to be able to pick me out right away.â€

Wow, I almost forgot about this thread! Alright, ready to see who our mystery staffers are?

1. Ashley is a native Texan, true or false? true. I was born in Houston.
2. Gypsy was the first administrator/mod, true or false? false. While on a technicality you could say Archan, Shatterheart is really the first true admin and the one I had in mind when I wrote this. The rest of the staff appeared in this order: Gypsy, Aaron/LB, Noz, Inkhana, ShiroiHikari, UC, Shoo and Kev
3. Name the four staffers whose first names all start with the letter A.
Ashley, Ami, Aaron, Annette
4. CAA was originally:
A- a webring. Over time we grew into a small message board, and then into a much larger forum
5. Shooraijin and OldPhilosopher are brothers, true or false?false. They are good friends IRL
6. The first layout for CAA featured which anime series?Yorodien Samurai Troopers
7. What was Ashley's original online alias, and why did she change it? Riana. I changed it because of personal convictions--Shinja's quote was dead on
8. How many "best" contests (couple, anime, bishoujo, bishounen) has CAA had? I actually accidentally gave this answer in the question. There have been 4 contests with the word best in them
9. Development is the official name for the dancing banana, true or false? false. I think at one time the banana's name was Fred(dy)
10. Identify these staff members:
- this girl once had hairbeads Gypsy
- this guy is a college proffessor OldPhilosopher
- this girl was the first original CAA member (hint: besides Ashley) ShiroiHikari
- this guy advocates a "meet market" every yearShooraijin
- this girl has a reputedly crazy Aunt C. Inkhana
- this guy has an earring named SkullbeardLightbringer
- this girl had a pet lizard Ashley--you all thought it was Ink, didn't you?
- this guy has been known to have a penchance for Jessica Biel Shatterheart
- this guy has an older sisterUC Pseudonym
- this guy has been known to decieve us all Noz/Straylight

Thanks to everyone who participated!

I'm not sure how the confusion set about, or if it was my fault, but for the record I would like to say that I have only a younger sister and no older siblings.

I think I could call into question a little bit of confusion about me as well. ;)

Whoa, I think t_n_c took that one!

(trying to look like Iria ~_^)

Oh of all the things for me to be remembered for! I wish my hairbeads looked like Iria's, but when I made them, it was for the sole reason of me having a hard time cutting my hair short - so I kept a strand long and braided it, then stuck beads on the bottom. I had the braid (it was unbraided and re-beaded many times) for about two years. It was pretty weird of me, but I liked it. Actually ... the hairbeads were in my senior pictures if you'd like to see them.

Why yes... yes I would like to see them. :grin: That would be very interesting to see really. ^___^

WOW, I really have missed out on some key things while being here, LOL.
must train harder . . . ><

Granted, that would be a hard quiz to take unless you've been here for at least a year. Shinja's score was impressive as well, but he's one of the patrons. ;)

Don't be fooled Kisa, "patrons" is just a nice way of saying old fart. :lol: Myself, I just call Shinja "gramps"

But seriously, I tried to make it more about having fun and participating rather than actual percentiles right. And too, it's hard for me to seperate what *I* know from what I think you might know--I've known everyone on staff at least 2, if not 3 or 4+ years now.
