The Lurker 500 - Page 24

**Iowanian** · 03-15-2008, 10:43 AM

Ladies and Gentlemen.

Start your Engines for the Lurker 500.

In this race of planet history, Lurkers, those with less than 100 posts per year of membership are challenged!

Myself, and other tenured members I shall designate will pose comments, statements or questions of Chiefs Planet History. Your job~your Challenge! is to explain the story behind the comment, link it to its originating poster....explain why its relevant or funny. Bonus points awarded for context.

How well do the lurkers know us? How versed are the lurkers in our history?

At the end of this thread, I will donate $20 to Chiefsplanet in the name of the determined winner. The contest will end when I determine the thread/contest has run its course.

Points will be awarded by myself to the first lurker with correct explanation of each event. Bonus points will be given to those with less than 10 total posts.

Tenured posters are allowed to participate in the thread, however until a lurker answers a question...do not give the answer, or anything more than subtle hints on questions that may pose difficulty. Once revealed of the true answer.....feel free to give your take or comment on that moment.

What is this about?

Me scores 2 hits
-superficial damage to radio room
-superficial damage to pilot compartment

2 Mes circle, attack again

brent102fire fires, misses
hydrae fires, misses
braincase fires, misses
rednfeisty fires, misses

Both Mes miss, break off attack

Heavy Flak – 5 hits
-superficial damage to starboard wing
-port root damage to tail
-starboard root damage to tail
-superficial damage to tail

The fifth hit comes in. As a note, flak was fired from an 88-mm shell, which exploded at altitude to create shrapnel.

If you were unlucky, the shrapnel hit your plane.

If you were really unlucky, the 88-mm shell hit your plane.

If you were really, really unlucky, the 88-mm shell hit a fuel tank.

An 88-mm shell hits the port wing.

It explodes in the inboard fuel tank.

The fuel tank explodes.

The left wing shears off.

Damn, that one is soooo easy to find the answer to. I knew one of them off the top of my head, but had no clue on the others.

Maybe Iowanian can keep unanswered questions in the thread starter, since several people are submitting them.

Me too.

**Iowanian** · 03-18-2008, 10:43 AM

I'll likely be MIA for a couple of days, soon. I can't keep up with everything.

Each person is responsible for submitting and scoring their own questions...and I think when you do, unanswered questions should be listed at the bottom of your post?

new question.
A poster took a date to a fire station. What happend?

I think Skip started the "Last person to post on this thread wins" thread. Last I saw it on the main page, it had 11,000+ replies.

I seem to remember that it was about the same time as those Capital One commercials about identity theft, where the lady is getting her hair done, and talking (voice dubbed over with a guy's) about her buying parts for "my robot, my GIRL robot".

Funny stuff.

Hilarity ensued.

Yep. It's Logical's question, so he can assign the points.

Nobody's taken a stab at my question (worth 2 points):

A couple of years ago, one of the original Planeteers attempted to set a new world record. Unfortunately, his attempt was prematurely abandoned.

Who was the Planet member and what record was he attempting to break?
