HC Olympics: H3 Knowledge Quiz
Welcome to Angelito's Game. He wrote most of the questions, he's going to be the judge and we will be playing according to his rules:
-All the answers will be sent on HCM to Angelito.
-Only one HCM per a team.
-All the HCM's have to be sent by Friday's morning.
So speed is not an issue on this game. Not the first one who answers will win. Take your time and think well before sending the group's HCM.
1. My speed is unique, I am unupgraded, I am neither a peasant nor an angel, version 1.4.
2. Cheapest battle spell, version 2.2
3. Which skill has the most specialized heroes?
4. Most expensive neutral unit, version 1.4
5. Name all possible artefacts a hero could have equipped so the opponent can't successfully cast "blind" on a unit on the battlefield?
6. How can I eleminate the movement penalty in the desert?
No one can hit more units in the first round of a battle than me....day 1 week 1
8. Which spell(s) can't be "magic mirrored" by a Fairy Dragon if casted "on" them?
9. What happens to a Titan if u throw him into the skeleton transformer of a Necropolis town?
10. What's the highest possible score on a single player map played on 160% difficulty?
11. In what quest you should bring Spirit of Opression to a certain town?
12. Name atleast two ways to gain 2 5th level spells immediately.
13. With what towns do you begin with in the United Front quest?
14. Who was Gryphonheart?
15. I'm a very dangerous creature; if you attack me I'll hit your friend. What am I?
Goodluck, and thanks to Angelito.

3. Team of Dj: 12 points
4. Team of Azagal: 2 points
Congratulations to the winnner!
Before this thread gets hit by tons of posts complaining about why their answers are not correct, here are some explanations:
Question 3: It was not asked for, which skill the most heroes start with, but are specialized in. No hero is specialized in wisdom..
Question 5: Every team who named a false artefact got substracted 1 point (recanter's cloak does NOT prevent, coz blind is level 2, and recanter's cloak works on lelvel 3 - 5)
Question 7: It was asked "No one" and not "Nothing", so it was clear we were not looking for a single spell, but for a specific hero

I only talked to Mvass.
He hadn't heard anything about anything so I assumed that Death and Azzie weren't in this. I have never seen them in library so I just took granted that they have never heard about HoMM 3.
But when I asked angelito if he had received any HCMs from our team he said no...
Technically the better ones would have been our finall answer but the rules say only one per team...
This is tricky.

What about OUR team? I HCMed my answers to Alci, in order to send our group's HCM to you. I bet he didn't sent them to you, because, when checking my answers, I saw that I have 19 points!!!!
We are not mentioned!!!!

I only recieved HCM's fo those mentioned members. When Joonas asked me if I have recieved any HCM of his other teams (antipaladin), i answered NO, coz till that point, I have only recieved a HCM of Skeleton-King, nothing else.

Anyone of our(OSM: Azagal, Mvassilev, Death) team sent you answers for the H3 knowledge quiz already?
My answer:Quote:
Sent to: JoonasTo
Sent at: 21:44, Saturday 30 August
Subject: Re: HC olympics
No. I have recieved only 1 HCM as of yet.
4 hours later I recieved this HCM:
Quote:
From: GenieLord
Sent at: 00:54, Sunday 31 August
Subject: Hello
The answers of OSM team to the quiz (was sent to me by Azagal):
2. Magic Arrow
3. Wisdom
6. Expert Pathfinder
8. Dispel
9. Turns into a Skeleton
15. Hydra or Cerberus
Why was this sent to Genielord? All HCM's should have been sent to me, as stated in the opening post of Genielord.
But there is no need to worry Joonas. Azagal didn't answer a question correctly which you haven't answered correctly yourself. So no gain here.
I haven't recieved any HCM of Zamfir or Alcibiades.
@ antipaladin
I don't get your point here. What questions are "biased"? And why didn't you complain when u first saw the questions instead of now when game has ended?

No means to disrespect Angelito,i just dont think the questions arethe right ones who should been asked. i was hoping for a knowdlge quiz to be more of a trivia,and not something you have 'find out essapacily'.
Exemple : Im feed on life,yet i do not breath
Answer: Vampire,Vampire lord,blood dragon.
