During the 'Team Building' challenge billed as The NewlyMet Game and actually named 'Allies?', a question posed to the first two teams was "Plaid or Paisley?". The answer round came to Lys and Maris and Lys needed to guess what Maris had answered.

VIVICA: Lys, does Maris prefer plaid or paisley?
Lys hemmed a bit before finally guessing one (not that I recall which)
The reveal....
MARIS: Bullets.

During wheel of science, Konrad and Jane are struggling to figure out a math term. We had a few lucky letter guesses, and about 1/4 of the phrase is on the board. We're still drawing a blank. Liam walks out of nowhere, and tells Jane he knows what it is, as if it's the most obvious thing ever. The phrase: Partial differential equation.

THIRTEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Freaking two letters are on the board at the Wheel, and Descent is like, "Yeah, I know this."

Hydrohalogenation reaction.

REALLY!?!?!?

Dr. Slate, after spinning the Wheel of Science: "I got a two. Have I won the game?"

D-Trip is trying to make Fawkes laugh.

D-Trip: *plops bag of resources onto one leg* Would you like to stroke my....resources?

Fawkes, after Ori is patched up from , um, some undisclosed gunfire :
"Now you understand the meaning of Terminally Rude"

Cape Ninja after being accused of (blatantly) reading Stark's card in the Newlymet Game "Cheat? I am a man of integrity!"

Maris shows his card for who he'd what for governor and vice governor: Sex & Guns

… or was that his perfect vacation?

Having sorted through a few of the stacks of answers post event, all I can say is that Chapman and many other PCs are quite creative and good sports. Beyond that, I have no further comments at this time.

NOTE: Just ignore all the snickering and giggling coming from my general direction. Nothing to see here, move along.

Let's be fair though, I have 4 science degrees in real life. Also, I believe the phrase was actusally the name of an in game procedure.

Funny quote that came out of this weekend, but not from the event itself.

During the after-party we've all been drinking for a while, and Matt is sitting across a table from Derek, who has his feet up. Matt is running his finger along the logo on Derek's boot.

Derek: "Matt... stop fondling my boot!"

My personal favorite:

Me: What is the common name of: 1,3,7-trimethyl-1H-purine-2,6(3H,7H)-dione 3,7-dihydro-1,3,7-trimethyl-1H-purine-2,6-dione?

Billy-Rye: Because I'm Billy-Rye, I'm going to say Caffeine

Me: So you're trying to use this quiz as some kind of ad placement?

Billy-Rye: Yes

(His answer was 100% correct, as well)

It was such a nice boot, what can I say.
