The Rules Of Sabacc
===================
Sabacc is played with a deck of 76 cards made up of four suits--Sabres, Staves, Flasks, and Coins--and a set of face cards. Each suit is made up 11 regular cards (numbered 1-11) and four ranked cards: the Commander, the Mistress, the Master, and the Ace (numbered 12-15). The set of face cards consists of 16 cards, each with a *negative* value. (Note that it is possible to have a hand with a net negative value.) In addition, each face card has a special name and symbol. There are two instances of each face card in the pack.

Does that get me a bonus 'sad' point Matt?

OMG Greg. I am impressed, but I think there might indeed be a few sad points heading your way!

Well I think as the last one was answered so quickly, this one probably will be as well. Hopefully the ones about the more recent movies will be tougher.

Today's question:

What is the creature called that attacks Luke in the garbage compactor in "A New Hope"?

Dianoga

Blooming hell, another quick answer. Me thinks AlexLs has a good search engine.

PS. If its straight out of your memory, apologies

PS. Maybe a bit like Popeye, Greg could get stronger after a McFlurry so watch out!

Come on Matty!!!!! :eek: i'm online now....

Blimey, AlexLS is quick off the mark! Two points so far. Either a Star Wars freak or very good search engine!!!

OK next question:
Who was George Lucas' second choice to play Leia?
(and what was she otherwise known for?)

And no the answer isn't Julia

Jodi Foster

Alex LS · Post by **Alex LS** » Thu Aug 01, 2002 5:03 pm

Terri Nunn, surely? She became lead singer of "Berlin."

Carrie Fisher was also considered for "Carrie" before Sissy Spacek got it, IIRC.

Matt · Post by **Matt** » Sat Aug 03, 2002 12:42 pm

Yep AlexLS is right again. Despite lots of trivia sites saying it was Jodi Foster, this is not true. Jodi did screen test, but George Lucas is quoted as saying his second choice was Terri Nunn, Berlin's lead singer.

(Sorry Erm)

Next question:
What other (non-Star Wars) film does R2-D2 appear in?

The challenge is laid down for someone to beat AlexLS to the right answer!!

Close Encounters of the Third Kind
