As you may have noticed, since June 16th we have been running a trivia game on the Regional Message Board. The game has been intentionally kept focused on the game side, with very little posted about it on the forum. With the term coming to an end, the first season of the game concluded today. I am copying below the contents of the game dispatch for future reference. If you like the game, please upvote the game dispatch!
Introduction
Starting on June 16th, the Security Council of The North Pacific will be sponsoring The North Pacific trivia game!
At every round of the game, a Security Councillor will be submitting a question, which will be featured on the WFE. Then, nations will have one week to find the answer and post it on the RMB (please make sure to indicate in your posts that you are submitting an answer for the TNP trivia game). The question will be updated as soon as somebody posts the correct answer, or if a week passes without anyone getting the answer right.
Questions will be about TNP, and usually will require a lot of searching through the threads of our regional forum. The forum search function I expect will prove invaluable. You can view most of the forum without registering, but registration is strongly encouraged - and make sure to say hi and introduce yourselves!
A week before the end of the current term, the nation that answered the most questions will be declared winner of the TNP trivia game.
Winner of first season: Olvern
Olvern gets to select the avatar and motto of Delegate HMS Unicorn for one week, after which a new season of the game will begin.
