Nah, I just somehow associated Etti IV with the Sith, but as I checked, they were just allies.

@DarkShadow - Well, Sith Alchemy is the darkest form of Force manipulation. So I gave him two points.
@Sargeras - You can still join. You'll gain cumulative equal to the lowest score every week. Mytical had one the first week and Pinkspear had 4 this week. You start with 5 points. Welcome Sargeras! Will post questions soon. Look sharp!

Heh sorry
1) Name a Sith Lord predating the title Darth.
Exarcoon (Im confident I spelled that wrong)
2) Name a Sith Lord with the title Darth.
Darth Sideus
3) Name a Sith-controlled planet.
During which era ? They are almost all controled after clone wars, before rebellion! Courasant
4) Several Force techniques are considered to be inherently Dark Side. Name one.
Force Rage
Force Lightning
Force Choke
5) Name a Sith Lord who has or has attempted to return from the dead.
hmmm iunno
Most Sith Lords in the Old Republic were buried on Korriban. However, some were buried off-world. Name one of these unique Lords.
OMGZ I didn't even know where they were buried, however Maul was almost certainly not buried there. I would say too bad he wasn't a Sith *lord*, but from the way you use it in all the other questions I assume you think all Sith are Sith lords.

Whoah I just read past the questions ( peoples responses) and you gave a bunch of two pointers for no explained reason. I assume its for mentioning things not in the movies, however you never said that, otherwise Id redo all my answers.
Also I reread the master post and you changed it a bunch
"2) In such cases that the question has a number of answers, you gain one point for every correct response. However, in this case, any other incorrect responses cancel out one correct answer [1 incorrect = -1 correct]. So, only post answers your certain about."
Too imba
"Name a Sith Lord with the title Darth."
Ok now its WAAAY too imba

I'll add your scores to the post Miru. I somehow knew you'd be late. Now, about your complaining () First of all, I have been meaning to change the rules primer for a long time, but I'm just too damn lazy. Now, about the imba problem. The rule you quoted is to be deleted and revised. And, since you said imba on an easy question, I'm picking up the pace to this contest  .
Slice & Dice: Lightsabers Unveiled
Several thousand years from the current ABY date, the technology of focusing a beam of energy into a blade was invented. This "lightsaber" revolutionized the galaxy to a new age.
1) Name a crystal used in lightsaber creation.
2) Besides crystal, name three lightsaber components.
Throughout the ages, forms of combat arose to organize the way the Jedi taught in the Academies. Traditionally, there were 7 forms, each being taught by one apt Master.
3) Name a traditional lightsaber form and its main weaknesses and strengths.
4) Name a non-traditional lightsaber form and its main weaknesses and strengths.
5) Name any Jedi Master and his/her fighting form.
This is just the first part. I'll update the leaderboard later. Good luck.

3) Name a traditional lightsaber form and its main weaknesses and strengths.
Shii cho is the first that uses zones of the body and can help against single opponents but not multiple. It is a rather simple one.
4) Name a non-traditional lightsaber form and its main weaknesses and strengths.
Double-bladed lightsaber. More offensive but requires more skill and people who used it were often sith or turned maybe because it reflects an aggressive philosophy.
5) Name any Jedi Master and his/her fighting form.
Mace Windu - Vaapad.

4) JarKai - dual blade wielding
- strengths: powerfull offense, one blade can be for attacks and other one for parries
- weaknesses: lower defense, weaker blocks
5) Yoda - Ataru (but he knows all forms  )

This is the hardest wave. Never really got into light sabers and remember little from the games =/
1) Bondar
2) Hilt, energy channel, energy emitter.
3) Soresu (?) - encompasses user's agility, boosting it... Maybe susceptible to strong attacks?
4) Yuan (?) - dunno... the only distinctive feature is the purple lightsaber color.
5) Yoda - Soresu (?)

Hrrm... tough questions...
1. Qixoni
2. emitter matrix, lens assembly, power cell.
3. Niman. No weaknesses or strengths (balance is the whole point).
4. Trispzest. Underside is exposed, but flight can result in some very unique moves which can confuse landbound enemies.
5. Corran Horn used Trakata (at least sometimes)

This round seem to be Kotor heavy and since i have quite bad memory when it comes to names or parts i have absolutely no idea of any answer.
Amount of answers on some people make me wonder are they really such SW freaks or they still use Google even tho it wouldn't be fair
Keep the questions coming

In fact, KOTOR is not the source of all answers. Sure you can find most the answers to the questions form KOTOR, but it wasn't the inspiration. Now, how many people haven't answered yet?...
