Subsim: 16 Years on the Web and a Trivia Contest!

[mookiemookie]

Side note: Fred Warder rose to the rank of rear admiral and lived to be 95 years old, dying in 2000: http://articles.latimes.com/2000/feb/04/news/mn-61070

[aanker]

Fitzcarraldo has a point. Starting at the beginning of a career nobody is on the board. Starting after the beginning Fred Warder and others are listed.

...but I can start my career in 1942, 43, or 44...

A U-Boot is a beer cocktail (popular in Germany, Poland, Serbia and Flanders) that is made with a glass of beer and a shot glass of vodka.
In Serbia, it is called "Podmornica", literally translated "Submarine".


Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U-Boot_(beer_cocktail)

I know that one :D Just in "submarine" it is not vodka, it is brandy made from plums. ( very nasty stuff :up:)

[Onkel Neal]

Well...It depends of the start date of the campaign.

In a campaign starting April 1942, Pearl Harbour, I have Fred Warder as leading as, with 14.300 tons.

Regards.

Fitzcarraldo :salute:

That is the answer I was looking for. Once Commander's begin to appear on the board, Warder is on
top.

Man, you guys are good.
Nah, you just posted an easy one to google while I was actually near the computer. :D

[mookiemookie]

Well done, man. I was hitting up LexisNexis when you posted the answer. Well done, indeed!

[razark]

Well done, man. I was hitting up LexisNexis when you posted the answer. Well done, indeed!
I found it linked from the Subsim.com article on Wikipedia, even.

Besides, I had to keep you from taking up half the list. :salute:

starting to see a pattern here all you have to do is stay up all night with google on your laptop and subsim on the PC and wham we too can win one.

I am not jealous ... just slow that's all
congratulations all you winners

[Onkel Neal]

Wow, do you work for the CIA? :D

There was no question 11 because we got two valid answers on question 12. How did I know that there would be two winners on question 12 and therefore knew to skip question 11? The answer involves time travel and ...nevermind. :dead:

[Onkel Neal]

Subsim Trivia Question 23: In a particular subsim, when you are at your leisure in the captain's quarters, you can read a love note from his girl. Which subsim is it and what are the contents of the note?






All I have to say now is: ha! ha! ha!

[Cybermat47]

Silent Hunter 5, and the note reads:

I'm leaving you for Silent Hunter III. He may be old, but at least he works from the start.
Sincerely,
Ms. Player

[Mork_417]

Yeah? I try to spread the Qs around so they work for folks in different time zones, what works for you?

Actually you've hit my hours nine times out of the 23 questions, well except that elusive #11, LoL. I just need to get on more often. :)

Having a good time, keep them coming! :up:

[fitzcarraldo]

Question 23a - out of contest:

What is the fate of the girlfriend of the Number One in Petersen´s "Das Boot"? (I don´t remember if the data is in the Bucheim book).

Not a joke...Really there is an answer....

Prize: A night with Fräulein Brünhilde in Munich.

Subsim Trivia Question 23: In a particular subsim, when you are at your leisure in the captain's quarters, you can read a love note from his girl. Which subsim is it and what are the contents of the note?


If you pause the game and hover the mouse pointer over the photo in the captain's quarters in Grey Wolf: Hunter of the North Atlantic, the message "Uta, Your Love" will appear.

[Onkel Neal]

If you pause the game and hover the mouse pointer over the photo in the captain's quarters in Grey Wolf: Hunter of the North Atlantic, the message "Uta, Your Love" will appear.

Well, it took 6 hours this time, yay!

Yes, that is correct. Good job, Daryl.:up:

Next Subsim Trivia Question will appear within 12 hours or less.

Fitzcarraldo :salute:

she was killed in a bombing raid. His fiancee actually.

[fitzcarraldo]

she was killed in a bombing raid. His fiancee actually.

You win...

The scene is in the Uncut series for TV, nothing about that in the original movie or the Director´s cut.

But - I´m sorry - Fräulein Brünhilde was the prize for a flightsim contest (also) and she isn´t returned yet...


Only we have Hans and Otto for the prize...Enjoy!

Subsim Trivia Question 24: In the film The Hunt for Red October, Capt.Ramius is known to do what in the bottom half of the hour?

The most accurate and complete answer is needed.

[Herr-Berbunch]

Always goes to starboard - yes! Got one. :woot:

Because he always goes to starboard at the bottom half of the hour.

[Dronston]

a "crazy Ivan"

[Onkel Neal]

Hmm... two partial answers. Judges?

[AVGWarhawk]

Hmm... two partial answers. Judges?

Both are correct IMO. :up:

[Conan]

Hi!

I'm one of the (badly paid) judges for the Subsim Trivia contest.

After careful review, the answer Neal was looking for was Capt.Ramius is known to make a Crazy Ivan to starboard in the bottom half of the hour

We're boarding the Subsim corporate jet to retire to the chalet and deliberate on this, the answer will be forthcoming in 7 weeks.

[geetrue]

Turn to starboard while doing a crazy Ivan on the half hour

[Gerald]

Hi!

[AVGWarhawk]

Thanks "Conan" for a dignified statement :D

To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women.


:haha:

No one gave you or the judges permission to use the jet, boy, :stare: and the chalet is being rented out to the Victoria's Secret people until after Feb 14, you don't go near us, the chalet, I mean...

Ahem, ok, well, let's get serious here, people. As Conan stated, the full and complete answer was: Capt.Ramius is known to make a Crazy Ivan to starboard in the bottom half of the hour

Always goes to starboard: what? Always pees to starboard? That explains those stains.

a "crazy Ivan": Yes, he is known to make crazy Ivans, twice an hour. But what kind of CI in the bottom half of the hour? I bet the trim operator hates his guts.

Turn to starboard while doing a crazy Ivan on the half hour: Pretty close, but which half hour? Top? Bottom?

Come on, where's that military exactness for which you are all famed? :O:

In this case, I will allow all three answers. All three of your names will be added to the list.

The next Subsim Trivia question will surface within the next 12 hours. Right now I have to call the hanger and get that mob of judges out of my plane. :k_confused:

[geetrue]

Sean Connery: Captain Marko Ramius

but how did Jack Ryan know that Captain Ramius would turn to starboard when questioned by the captain of the LA class fast attack submarine?

answer; He just took a guess

[AVGWarhawk]

:up:

[Herr-Berbunch]

In this case, I will allow all three answers. All three of your names will be added to the list. But, with one stipulation: if/when you answer another Subsim Trivia question correctly (and completely!), your name does not get entered for that question, but you may select another captain and his name will be added. And then you will be back to normal--answer a 3rd question correctly (and completely, hey! I'm really serious about this!), your name goes on the list normally.

Most generous, Neal.


Today's objective complete, make life difficult for Neal.

[Sailor Steve]

Today's objective complete, make life difficult for Neal.
He's already making up imaginary friends to talk to. How much worse can it get?

[PacificWolf]

He's making "Crazy Ivan" Which means the sub is making full 360 degrees turn to check if anyone follows her.

[Madox58]

He's already making up imaginary friends to talk to. How much worse can it get?
Imaginary friends are better then no friends at all.
:D

[Oberon]

Nothing, because Ryan was just guessing.

[Onkel Neal]

Ha! that's actually true. :cool:

[McBeck]

My imaginary friend can thrash your imaginary friend any day...

[Wolferz]

Ahem,
Captain Ramius was only known to pull the Crazy Ivan at the bottom of the hour. The maneuver to starboard was a guess by Mr Ryan, Therefore the direction was not known.

[aanker]

Ahem,
Captain Ramius was only known to pull the Crazy Ivan at the bottom of the hour. The maneuver to starboard was a guess by Mr Ryan, Therefore the direction was not known.
True. Good point Wolferz.

Happy Hunting!

[Dronston]

Haha, thx, I only knew (part of) the answer because by coincidence I recently watched THFRO and remembered the scene. All the questions that came before this one didn't ring any bell whatsoever.

[Oberon]

The real question is...what were the dimensions of playmate of the month?

[Jimbuna]

The real question is...what were the dimensions of playmate of the month?

46 DDD :sunny:

[Subnuts]

The real question is...what were the dimensions of playmate of the month?

Large enough to make him change his mind about firing his missiles on the United States.

[torpedobait]

Probably answered many times above, but according to Jack Ryan (who just made it up - had a 50/50 chance) he always turned to starboard when making a Crazy Ivan to clear his baffles.

[AVGWarhawk]

The real question is...what were the dimensions of playmate of the month?

What month?

[Jimbuna]

What month?

Which playmate even? :hmm2:

[geetrue]

He's making "Crazy Ivan" Which means the sub is making full 360 degrees turn to check if anyone follows her.

Not 360 degrees ... they usually just check the baffles and go back to the course they were on the reverse side.

A Crazy Ivan is a Soviet submarine maneuver, characterized by any number of sudden and sharp turns, used by submarine crews to "look behind" them. Due to the acoustic distortions and noise caused by propeller blades, it is near-impossible to use conventional sonar behind a submarine. With the sudden turns, the area where the sonar wouldn't function would shift relative to the current heading of the submarine, causing previous gaps in sonar coverage to be revealed while masking known areas. A Crazy Ivan is a method to clear a submarine's baffles.

In real life on the open sea's crazy ivan's weren't the problem ... the chicken dances were even worse.

Whenever a Russian submarine detected another submarine (usually our side) they would steer straight for it.

Just one problem with this manuever ... in the 1960's we had not yet figured out how to tell what depth a contact was at with any certain certainety.

Thus the name, "Chicken dance" first one to change course was a chicken. Lot like jet fighter pilots headed for each other, except they had radar.

[Onkel Neal]

He's already making up imaginary friends to talk to. How much worse can it get?


:haha::haha::haha::haha: Steve :up:

Yah, looks like my question was a bit sloppy --and here I was instructing you all to provide a "complete" answer to an incomplete question :dead: It probably should have been:
In the film The Hunt for Red October, according to Jack Ryan: Capt.Ramius is known to do what in the bottom half of the hour?

Well, I'll try to do better. :shucks: So, looks like I better add Oberon and Wolferz to the winner list. And I'll retract the complicated restrictions I mentioned. I think I'm beginning to crack under the pressure of devising Google-proof trivia questions that can actually be answered through previous knowledge of the subject.

Carry on! :rock:

Only one guess per question. (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?p=1998572#post1998572) :timeout:

I guess Mookie and Subnuts must out golfing, this is an easy one.

I don't get it. Subnuts identified 23 images. Someone's already guessed Subnuts. What gives?

EDIT: CRAP. Figured it out. Richard Kaminski.

Now we're talking. Original Mystery Subsim contest. (http://www.subsim.com/ssr/myster1.html)

One Subsim Trivia contest questions coming up. Last one, so make it count!

[Onkel Neal]

Subsim Trivia Question 28 (The Last One): In the game Red Storm Rising, you could include SAM missiles in your sail loadout. What was the exact alph-numerical designation and name of these missiles in the game?

That's what I thought too Mookie; FOX said that and the web page also said that, however it is like the umpire call at a game ....... Neal is the boss and his call.

Happy Hunting!

We don't round up or down, this is just to grab two randomly generated, publicly verifiable numbers.

So, the last two digits before the decimal: http://online.wsj.com/home-page

[mookiemookie]

Understood. Obviously I have no horse in this race (for yesterday anyways), but I thought you were rounding because the Marketwatch link you provided in post 330 (http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showpost.php?p=2003024&postcount=330) did round the index value to the nearest whole number.

Good morning. Got the market figured out I see.

"The heights by great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they, while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night."

My Dad made it to just a week before he would have been 85 but his Dad (my Grandfather) almost reached 93. I'm shooting for 100... lol

Wow! neal admiting he was wrong ... mark this day on your calendar for it may never return again (just kidding)

How about this if the stock market is down that day then you could subtract that number from the total of the ones that are left giving us left overs a shot at the prize.

Then I will ask each winner to PM me his current mailing address and will be sending out the prizes. Be sure (in case I forget to ask later) to list your shirt size (S, M, L, XL, Texan L),

Good luck! :ping:

[Oberon]

(Texan L),

I nominate that this size should be made official. :yep:

[Wolferz]

I nominate that this size should be made official. :yep:

Who would wear it? Big Tex met with an unfortunate accident during the last fair.:03:

[Onkel Neal]

Well, he'll be back and he will need a shirt. :shucks:

[geetrue]

Hmmm... he insults me and he wins. :O: Hope that doesn't set a precedent.


8-Feb Friday: 13992: geetrue 92 geetrue




I didn't mean to insult you ... I apologize.

It's just that in ten or more years here it was a rare thing to see.

I am an enlisted man and you sir are an officer and enlisted men should not chide officers (unwritten submarine manual)

Thank you for anything i WON :woot:wow!

Which reminds me of a sea story: It was a normal patrol in the south China sea on a calm night on the nuclear submarine
Ethan Allen working the night shift as the sonar supervisor when the booming voice of the captain comes over the control room/sonar mic,

"Sonar lay to the conn"

I casually got up shaking the head phones off of me and putting my coffee cup in its holder and wandered out to the conn with a
quizzcal look on my face in the dim glow of red lights in control rigged for red on the night watch.

"Yes sir" I meekly called out

The captain glarling at me announces that his sonar repeater, showing our contacts on a crt rigged in orange, was not functioning.

I reached up and flipped the on/off switch on and stood there watching the contacts on the screen come into focus as the unit warmed up.

The captain who had had his back to me turns around and see's what I have done says;

"Thank you Dillon that will be all"

You could tell it was a humbling experience one I will never forget :D

[mookiemookie]

Woo hoo!

[aanker]

Congratulations fitzcarraldo!

11-Feb Monday 13971: fitzcarraldo

...... I had a 'premonition of good' - strange.

[razark]

Woo hoo!
It's about time. Figured you'd have won before now.

[Onkel Neal]

I didn't mean to insult you ... I apologize.



Aww, I knew that, and I was kidding, too. I hope that was clear :D Haha, there is no formal power structure here (officers/enlisted), we're brothers of Subsim, you take the vow of chastity and I'll take the vow of silence (whew!). :O:

Weee, the Dow is up and Mookie is smiling, a great day all around! :up:

I win again! Er, I mean Raptor3 wins! :O:

[Raptor1]

Damn that impostor, always stealing what is rightfully mine! :stare:

[Herr-Berbunch]

Neal obviously placed them all in a spreadsheet with 'fill series' rather than just keeping the numbers, hitman911946 is the same.

:har: Raptor3

Hey ! :stare: I can't help it if you guys use weird nicknames with numbers. What are you, droids? :O::O::O:

Whatever it was they didn't believe in realism - I wouldn't go up against a CL or DE using a surface gunfire attack... although I have when I first got SH1 .. lol.

Your pic looks like an 8 or 16 bit....... Silent Service?

Name of the girl in the heading that invites members to click here for Amazon sales and surfing :hmmm:

Clue:
Just because she is wearing red shoes doesn't mean her name is "Sharkey"
