Hey, I just finished reading all of the Ender books and I feel kind of stupid. I forgot Miro's full name and can't find it in any of the books! If someone could please help me with this piece of information I would be most apritiative.

Now, did you have to look that up, or did you know of the top of your head? I just want to know how impressed I should be. [Wink]

A) He knew it off the top of his head.
B) If he made it up, I sincerely doubt anyone would call him on it, but assume he was right.
C) In which case, if its different than what is stated in the book, they will edit it the book to match Papa Moose's recollection, because when it comes to Card Trivia, he is ALWAYS right.
D) Papa's answer to trivia is Card Canon.

It's nice to have a reputation for something other than [discussions about] Onanism. Thanks, Dan.

I knew it off the top of my head, but I verified it from the book before posting it. Kind of a cop-out.

Dang! OSC should put your name in a book or something. Your wife's too!

Papa, if I recall correctly, your trivia prowess predates your onanism aversion by a fair bit, no?

I think it was the other way around, actually. The onanism meme was in place by my first landmark (late July '02), which was only slightly later than the Endercon trivia contest (early July '02). Ah well. At least I'm not known for trivia aversion and onanism prowess, right?



Right?

Thank You Papa Moose for your help. If I ever have any more questions on things like this, I will be sure to ask you first.

<- Points out this has unintentionally become another Onanism thread.

Hehe, I've still got that saved webpage somewhere deep in the magnetic mazes of my hard drive. Ah, Hatrack memories. [Smile]

All the full names and birthdates of Novinha's and Libo's families are in the front of Speaker for the Dead, making confirmation rather easy. At least they are in my paperback that I bought in 2003.
