Challenge # 1: Know Thee Enemy

Welcome Taverners to the first of your challenges. In order to succeed at war, you must know your enemy better than you know yourself.

So this first challenge will test your general knowledge of your team and your enemies. Each team is to talk amongst themselves and submit one finale form with all their guesses.

There are 14 soldiers, but 15 facts. One of these facts does not belong to any soldier, can you figure out which fact deceives you? And the final fact is about one of your leaders, can you guess which?

1) This soldier enjoys traveling to the land of Hyrule as they have purchased Twilight Princess 4 times.
2) This soldier enjoys writing in his spare time. You could check out some of his work from before the war at gameexc.com
3)This soldier is battle tested as he has had his thumb broken by his own platoon.
4) This soldier is a science wiz winning his science fair in 2005.
5) This soldier is a bit unusual as he takes a day each year to celebrate the Hot Dog.
6) This soldier is a lean green fighting machine as he shares a name with a ninja turtle.
7)This soldier is combat trained on the state of the art Ps3. Two times.
8) This soldier got his start in military education at Bennington College.
9)This soldier proved his worth by scoring a 1210 on his SATs.
10) This soldier was battle tested in the wilds of the Bahamas.
11) This soldier studies his enemies so much he made a video about them. Yes ninjas are the enemy.
12) This soldier not only graduated from the university of Truman but did it refreshed.
13) In his down time, this soldier can be found listening to Hoochan.
14) This soldier got a quarter on his ACT.

I say "possible" because the wording of the clue is a little off. Ninja turtles are BaB's enemies?

Re: Challenge # 1: Know Thee Enemy

Do we include the leaders?

It's not real clear, but I think that's what he means. Care to clear that up, BaB?

Google search Horie Yui and Hoochan and you'll see what I mean.

Re: Challenge # 1: Know Thee Enemy

Haha, yeah, just found Hoochan.

It has built in blu-ray, which turns out works out fantastically for me, not to mention it has one of the best games - IMO - of the new generation on it in Uncharted: Drake's Fortune.

Because me and my brother have an 80 gig for the big screen, and I just got a little 2-port 40 for my bedroom.

Re: Challenge # 1: Know Thee Enemy

Did a little more searching on the thumb, and it looks like indeed it was Fox 6

3)This soldier is battle tested as he has had his thumb broken by his own platoon. -- Fox 6

That would make more sense than BaB's video, since the ninja turtles aren't really his enemy. Leaving BaB's as a possibility, though.

The extra fact is just a decoy. It may or may not be true but in either case it is just a decoy. Do not worry about attaching it to one of us.

That is all

Re: Challenge # 1: Know Thee Enemy

Here are my thoughts for the final two soldiers:

Aladuf is age 19 according to his profile. If his high school was anything like mine, only freshmen were allowed to participate in the school science fair. In 2005, Aladuf would have been most likely a sophomore or junior in high school. That doesn't quite match up, but at least it puts him at high school age for winning the science fair.

However, Aladuf is also a Twilight Princess fan. He picked up on day one.

Cheez-Its, since he's a bit quirky I'd suspect he is the Hot Dog one. But I can't find anything that links him to any of those clues. Also, because of some the mystery around him (is he Yoshi? Is he GameMaster? Is he Dyne?) that BaB seems to be more aware of than the rest of us, it's hard to know for sure if he's really just a goofy guy or someone playing tricks.
