- Unto all who read these words, greetings from Yaakov. (Who is
- still trying to dig his way out from under a zillion back messages.)
-
- Awhile ago, someone posted a 'heraldry geek' quiz. I thought up
- this 'Rialto geek' quiz at about the same time, but didn't have time
- to post it until now.
-
- 1) What is the SSS?
- Bonus point for each member you can name.
- 2) What is Soapy? Whoi discovered/invented Soapy?
- 3) What is the name of the 'Rialto Household'?
- (NB: The 'Rialto Household is a household of people
- from the Rialto, not the 'official' Rialto household,
- whatever that would mean.)
- 4) Why is it the Rialto?
- 5) Why do some old-timers still refer to the 'fisher folk'
- of the Rialto?
-
- Give yourself one point for every time you've seen the following
- thread:
- 6) Same sex consorts
- 7) Selecting monarchs (via tourney or other method)
- 8) Is paganism period
- 9) Is Tarot period
- 10) Peerages (either restructurinbg or archery)
- 11) Non-European personaes
- 12) Pentacles in armory
- 13Rialto badge
-
- 14) Who wrote the various rialto FAQS?
- 15) How many are there and what are they called.
- 16) Do you subscribe to both the idgest and read rec.org.sca,
- just to make sure you're not missing anything.
-
- That should do it for now. Scoring 15 or more is probably a
- good sign of geekdom.

- In Service,
- Yaakov
