Ding! Ding! Ding!
I'll give Necro and Nothing 5 points each, since they figured it out between them
Did anyone wonder why there were exactly 13 questions?
Or why some of them were so strangely worded?
Allow me to reveal the method behind the madness…
I left three clues in the opening post of the sign-up thread, each of which were italicised:
“read down through the questions” … “the clue is in the name” … “my own initial set of answers”.
I also mentioned the Alphabet, and The Jennings Code at various points in that thread
All of which were hinting at one conclusion:
The first letter of every question spelled out my name… and so did my answers
My favourite clue was in response to Lorcan’s question, asking what my answer would be to “Name a German football team”
I said Nurnberg because then both question and answer would start with the same letter, just like all of my other answers. And I said Union Berlin because Berlin is… the capital
