ANW Quiz I

[Messup434]

We've had this for Sasuke before, so since we need a bit of tiding over until Friday, here's a quick quiz (I will also share this on Keshi Heads). It's probably easier than Sasuke quiz since I don't have the memory for stats on these shows, lol.

2. Which of these costumes has not been on ANW?: Baby, dog, boyscout, frog
3. On which season did Brian Arnold go the farthest?
4. Which of these competitors hasn't missed the grab on the Salmon Ladder: Ryan Stratis, Leif Sundberg, Michelle Warnky
5. What nickname did Akbar give to Jody Avila?
(Obstacles)
6. The original (short-lived) replacement for the Spider Flip was _____.
7. In 2016 LA Qualifiers, the only repeat rotatable obstacle was the _____.
8. Of the following obstacles, which has never caused a serious injury?: Slider Jump, Swing Jump, Tuning Forks, Broken Pipes, Log Runner
9. Which of the following obstacles is the odd-one-out? Why?: Monkey Peg, Hourglass Drop, Rail Runner, Jump Hang, Fly Wheels, The Clacker
10. Name three obstacles that appeared in Vegas based on an obstacle from a regional earlier than year.
(Other)
11. Aside from seasons 1-3, name the two seasons in which ANW did not visit Florida.
12. Which of the following wasn't a sponsor in the show's early years?: Pom, Reebok, Subway
13. Name the three hosts that only lasted for one season.

SPOILER: Click to show

{Answers (No clue if theyre correct)}
1) Brian Arnold, Ryan Stratis, David Campbell, Brent Steffensen
2) Frog? I know at least someone wore the Boy Scouts uniform.
3) It was a big deal when he made it to Stage 3 some years back...I'm going to say Season 8?
4) I'll go with Warnky. I don't know that she's made it to the Salmon Ladder very often, but I think she's made it through each time.
5) Big Dog Ninja? That's what he's called now, at any rate.

Turns out I'm only answering the first five questions, because I have no clue about the rest of them.

[Messup434]

Thanks for playing y'all! I'm scoring your posts and editing as I go:

thecomedian11: 8 correct - I can't see what you mean about the Hourglass Drop in Vegas (unless you mean in All Stars), and Peg Cloud is in it too.

Paragus: 10 correct - your reason on #9 was a good one, but it was wrong

Kane-Not-Kosugi: 12 correct - Good answer for #9! Though different from mine. I-Beam Gap was actually I-Beam Cross. Double Dipper doesn't count (since it was introduced in season 9 and only seen in Qualifying for 7 and 8), but you listed other good ones, so you can take that point.

Season 16 Hopeful: 10 correct - I gave you #9 even though earlier seasons is a bit vague. It is true and I know what you mean with the bootleg first few seasons. Also gave you #15, even though I wanted the episode it seems you were well-aware so I thought it should count.

gamer2k4: 1 correct


The answer key:

(Competitors)
1. David Campbell, Brian Kretsch, Ryan Stratis, Lorin Ball
2. Dog
3. Season 5
4. Leif Sundberg
5. (The) Big Dog (Ninja)
(Obstacles)
6. Area 51
7. I-Beam Cross
8. Broken Pipes (Slider Jump caused someone to break their nose, Swing Jump caused some kind of knee problem that required surgery in Baltimore)
9. Rail Runner is the odd-one-out because it only appeared in one position in the regionals (all of the others moved around and, therefore, appeared in multiple years)
10. Any of: Roulette Row/Crazy Cliffhanger/Giant Log Grip/Giant Ring Swing/Wave Runner/Double Wedge/Keylock Hang/Swing Surfer/Wingnut Alley/Nail Clippers/Archer Alley/Razor Beans/Twist & Fly/Epic Catch & Release/Crazy Clocks/Cane Lane
(Other)
11. 8 and 11
12. Pom
13. Blair Herter, Angela Sun, Jonny Moseley
14. Season 4
15. Season 10, episode 3 (Miami Qualifying)

Please do more of these. There are definitely a lot of areas to cover and I'd love to keep testing my knowledge.
