Has anyone decided to try their hand at Stage 8? I was a little skeptical about it because of the nature of how you answer. Fandom questions like this usually aren’t too hard, so a lot of this would come down to who’s watching for questions constantly if they were questions like, “What’s the Kakyoin noise?” But now that we’re a little further in, we can take a look at what some of the questions are.
Questions are almost entirely image based and are ranked by how many star points you can get for answering correctly and first.
Level 1 Questions are generally the sort of thing I thought all the questions would be. Simple trivia about events that are pretty big in the JoJo’s story. They even give you the chance to roleplay as Koichi, and I think we all have plenty of experience with that.
Level Two Questions are a little more daunting. That grave does revolve around a very notable event in JoJo’s, but the grave itself probably isn’t what stands out the most about that event. On a very different hand, you could figure out which number is a prime number just by trial and error with a calculator or searching it, but you don’t really have enough time to do that. Everyone is going to be jumping at the chance to answer the questions and get those points.
Level Three Questions are where things get really hairy and you have the most room to snipe because they take a lot of thought to really work out the answer. Considering how briefly Jotaro is in Part 5, do you remember what his hat looked like then? The Part 3, 4, and the Part 6 hats are pretty easy to remember, but the order and a hat that was only seen for a very little bit make it a lot tougher. The rectangle question it like the prime number one. You can measure out each figure to find out which one is 16:9, but do you feel like you have enough time?
So that’s where we are in how Stage 8 works. There are two big plus sides to it: One, they’ve posted a schedule for when questions will be asked:
Schedule of question posting
-Weekdays 12:00~13:00 & 22:00~23:00
-Weekends 22:00~23:00
*it will be changed.
They’ve also stipulated that if a question is not answered correctly within ten minutes of posting, the question will close and no points will be awarded. They also reconfirmed that anyone can join this stage and progress, but a maximum of 25 people will be allowed into Stage 9 from points in this stage.
Two, we have a sense for how many questions are being asked. We’re only just about a week into this Stage, and there’s been 59 questions, one of which was asked six minutes ago from when it is right now. So there’s a lot of opportunity to grab some points all day. There’s a block of questions going on right now as I’m writing this, so give it a shot if you see it in time.
(Answers: Erina is washing off the kiss from ME, DIO, Yukako is A, it’s Danny’s grave, 7001 is a prime number, the hat order is f→c→e→d→a→b, and I have no idea which one was the golden rectangle.)
