CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

All right, the smoke has cleared and the following racers are still standing:

Mangafanatic
SManBeyond
Swordguy
Smartypants
Sunako
Dark Angel
Zane
ZiP
termyt

The following racers have been eliminated:

Pumpkinkorn52
Mr_Anderson

I feel like I should explain why these racers have been eliminated. Mr_Anderson posted a fact that had already been used, (by Dark Angel, I believe) and never changed it. I sent him a PM and posted a warning on the thread, so I believe I gave him ample time and warning.

Although there is no fixed ending or starting times, I think that Pumpkinkorn has had more than enough time to check in.

A final note: remember, we want facts that are geographical and relevant to modern times. Examples: (not a definitive list)

-Population
-Area
-Largest Cities
-Major Religion

And you cannot post facts that have already been posted, so remember to check the other racer's entries before making your own fact.

And the next country is...

SUDAN!!!

Let's get it on! GO GO GO GO GO GO!

The capital of Sudan is Khartoum.

Osaka levels with Termyt 1-1! Yeah!

Sudan has a total population of some 32.6 million (in mid-2002).

Very good. So far no problemos...

So, um, where's Termyt? He'd better not let himself get eliminated in a second round. How anti-climatic would that be?

Very anti-climactic.

their currency is the Sudanese dinar

Thank you, Smartypants.

Now where's Smanbeyond? He's usually prompt at this sort of thing.

I Summon You Smanbeyond!!!!!

sry -.-; i didn't look through the thread

Wow, I can't believe I'm late...

Sudan's coastline measures 853 km.

Ack! Where the heck is Termyt!? He's gonna end our rivalry before I even get warmed up!

You'd like to think that, wouldn't you, Osaka. Fear not, friends, I'm still here and I'm checking in.

The Sudanese literacy rate is at 61.1% for the entire population.

That fact also comes from our friends at the CIA.

yeah, I forgot. Sorry about that. Enjoy the game.

Ah, the rivalry lives on... You guys aren't going to hurt each other, are you?

All facts are legitimate. This round is going very smoothly!

Dark Angel and Zane are going to have to fight it out for the last spot!

Hurt eachother? I woudn't have dreamed of it.



But since you brought it up. . . .

Seriously, though, I'd like to see what would happen in an Osaka vs. Termyt Pong battle.

We'll see what dirty tricks Osaka has in store for me soon enough, but fear not fans! I will overcome!

What's with all of you guys taking Ashley's avatar? It's confusing! (not to mention annoying.)

it's a thread spoof, anwyays is checkpoint 3 coming out tonight? Or are we only doing this on certain days??

It's coming in when either Dark Angel or Zane checks in, or if neither of them check in by noon tomorrow.

wait, so this could come at 3:00 in the morning??
I'm not allowed to stay up that late =(

It is somewhat confusing. . .

I'm not going to stay up until 3 in the morning, either! No, the checkpoints will come in at sane hours, like lunchtime and the evening.

However, in the final round, the last two contestants trade facts with increasingly short time controls until one of them can't answer. In the first season that went on until about 3 AM, yes.

To everyone: Remember that as people get eliminated you'll have less and less time to check in!

3 am!? Okay, I think I need a nap.

*Wipes sweat off brow*

*laughs evily*



Sweet dreams, Osaka!

*************

If neither Dark Angel nor Zane checks in by 9:00 tonight, they're both eliminated.
