    You passed! Not bad… If you have low expectations.

    You know everything about giants! I hope it doesn’t mean you’re overcompensating for something…

    No, I am not. I just need to know how to give my players a decent enemy to face.

    Impressive! You know almost everything about giants. How does it feel to have lots of knowledge and little social life?

    This is was a ginormous quiz. I, however, managed to get humongous score.

    Seriously, mate. Keep the quizzes coming … your intra-week postings … not my cup of tea.

    Peace.

    @Toord: Thanks. That officially qualifies as the back-handed compliment of the week! :P The quiz is my favorite thing on the site too.

    @Russell: I think Janna should get the karma for this one. She’s the one coming up with the weekly quiz now.

    That image is sooo well cropped! I am not taking the quiz because I do not want to be associated with that giant! Awesome!

    You know how much willpower it took me to NOT edit some tasteless joke in the quiz because of that image? (the image is the one on the homepage of the site for the article if you’re wondering)

    @ Toord: Thanks! I’m not a fan of my work, either; I only write the articles because they seem to amuse Expy. ;) Quizzes rule!

    @ Labareda: *lol* I didn’t notice until you mentioned it, but WOW. That’s one giant you don’t want to meet in prison…
