What General forum doesn't have a General Knowledge quiz, well, now this one does.
In this thread General Knowledge questions will be asked and you, the ppl, must give answers. After this first question, the winner will be stated here and then will have to give a question; and so on and so forth. Please don't use the internet, cause where's the fun in that.
The author of the question has to tell people who guess whetehr they are correct or wrong.
Rules
1)If no-one gets the answer within 24 hours of it being posted then the person who set it must ask a new one.
2)If no new question is set within 5 hours someone else will have to set a new question.
3)If you find out the answer on the internet(i.e.Google,Wikipedia) then you can't enter.
4)If you answer a question, you will get a point, providing that you also set a question.
5)No points will be added to the setter's total if no-one answers their question (Because than you could just set a really hard question that no-one would get)
Scoreboard
Machie = 2 Points
Kawada = 12 Points
Grandprix = 3 Points
tnc = 23 Points

Mainly because everyone's not on all the time and they can't post a new question if they didn't know they were right..

Like I said: you're only half right. The correct answer is 14 or -14.

Quite positive. But, seeing as I'm in a good mood I'll give you a hint by saying it's not exactly incorrect but only half correct.

I'll set one ...
You need to light a candle, a gas cooker and a gas fire but you only have one match. What do you light first?

i will accept that, as its within $1 million, the correct answer was $49,600,000. You also still need to set a qusetion to get the 3 points.
