Trivia Game 5 Begins Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

It's now just five weeks until the CIC's Sixth Birthday, and we're holding a summer trivia game to celebrate. Because of the shorter length, there's a second bonus question each week, for a total of four questions. You can email your answers in or fill out our simple trivia form. TC is starting the game off by asking who said the following quotes. The following answers are due by next Tuesday.

Question 1: "You and your grandfather have never learned the inner truth that peace and war can be one and the same, the pursuing of a policy that in the end, no matter what the means, can lead to ultimate victory. All you ever see is the path of the sword."

Question 2: "You had him, too. You should have put a bullet in his head when you had the chance."

Bonus 1: "I could force you to do this, but I won’t. The way I see it, you can either co-operate, and let the fleet blast it to Kingdom Come... or you can keep running the rest of your life."

Bonus 2: "Can I please have my clothes back, boys?"

You can email your answers to trivia@wcnews.com or fill out the form.

Ultima X Cancelation Probed Further By Slashdot Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

It looks like Slashdot felt the UXO cancelation deserved some further discussion. It is sort of an interesting situation, what with this being the second canceled attempt at a full Ultima Online sequel. A lot of people are suggesting a variety of different reasons for the game getting canned. The Slashdot post suggests EA's fear of splitting its Ultima Online 1 user base as a primary motivator. We think the biggest problem was the game being unable to handle the shift from Austin to Los Angeles. Not enough of the team moved with it, MMO games are expensive to make with diminishing profit potential, and EA's original (and continued) success with UO1 has made it overconfident in the massively multiplayer arena.
