QFTCI11 Game 3 Rounds 4,6: name a year, Bible
Mark Brader
and should be interpreted accordingly.
On each question you may give up to two answers, but if you give
both a right answer and a wrong answer, there is a small penalty.
Please post all your answers in a single followup to the newsgroup,
based only on your own knowledge. (In your answer posting, quote
the questions and place your answer below each one.) I will reveal
the correct answers in about 3 days. For further information see
my 2011-05-23 companion posting on "Questions from the Canadian
Inquisition (QFTCI5GNM, QFTCI11, QFTCIMM)".
I wrote one of these rounds.
* Game 3, Round 4 - Name a Year When...
Last week we had Name an Element That; this round is Name a Year
When. On each question you must name any year when something
happened or when something was true. In some cases it's possible
that the thing was true for *only part of the year*; that's fine.
For example, if we asked for a year when Rob Ford was mayor,
2010 would be a correct answer.
For any questions with less than 3 possible answers, we'll allow
a range of plus or minus 1 year, but we won't tell you in advance
which ones those are.
1. Name any year... when the UK had three monarchs in the
same year.
2. When Canada had three Prime Ministers in the same year.
3. When the Spanish Civil War was in progress.
4. When the British were at war with the Boers.
5. When the present Canadian Pacific Railway company had its
original main line under construction.
6. When Eglinton and Union were the two endpoints of the
Toronto subway.
7. When Canada had exactly 6 provinces.
8. When the US had no vice-president.
9. When a US election for president is known to have been won
by a candidate who did not finish first in the popular vote.
10. When a space shuttle was destroyed in an accident.
* Game 3, Round 6 - Biblical Quotations
We'll give you a quotation from the King James Version of the Bible,
and we'll tell you whether it's from the Old or the New Testament.
You tell us which book it's from. None of the quotes are from
the Apocrypha, nor -- here's a further useful hint -- from the
Book of Habakkuk.
1. Old Testament: "And if any man's seed of copulation go out
from him, then he shall wash all his flesh in water, and be
unclean until the even."
2. Old Testament: "Let the day perish wherein I was born, and
the night in which it was said, There is a man child
conceived."
3. New Testament: "And I saw in the right hand of him that
sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside,
sealed with seven seals."
4. New Testament: "And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among
us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only
begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth."
5. Old Testament: "And I will execute great vengeance upon them
with furious rebukes; and they shall know that I am the Lord,
when I shall lay my vengeance upon them."
6. Old Testament: "Let him kiss me with the kisses of his mouth:
for thy love is better than wine."
7. New Testament: "When I was a child, I spake as a child, I
understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I
became a man, I put away childish things."
8. New Testament: "But Paul said, I am a man which am a Jew
of Tarsus, a city in Cilicia, a citizen of no mean city:
and, I beseech thee, suffer me to speak unto the people."
9. Old Testament: "Blessed is the man that walketh not in the
counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners,
nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful."
10. Old Testament: "Then I looked on all the works that my hands
had wrought, and on the labour that I had laboured to do:
and, behold, all was vanity and vexation of spirit, and
there was no profit under the sun."

And of course, it's no way easier if you've only read the Bible in Swedish,
and only know the Swedish names of the books. I started with some wild
guesses, but I ran out of steam after some time.
Then again, I will have to admit that Revelation is singular in Swedish too
"Johannes' uppbarelse", so I cannot use this excuse for that error. On the
other hand Acts is "Apostlag�rningarna" in Swedish (which translates exactly
to "Acts of the Apostles"), but I had no clue about the English name.
