How does this work, do we each get asked five questions or something like that?
He who gets the most right wins?

EDIT: I've got a plan, we each ask another person five questions, therefore no need for a question master.

Randomizing now...

GK will ask VEVO questions
VEVO will ask Me questions
I will ask GoldenFox questions
GoldenFox will ask GK questions

GK...

1) Who got the fastest Gauntlet Run in Robot Wars Series 1?
2) What type of blade does Mortis have on its axe?
3) Which robot was the only one to win the Tug-of-War Trial from Robot Wars Series 2?
4) How was Skarab beaten in its Heat Final battle against TRACIE in Series 1?
5) Which team designed the tracks for the Plunderbird robots?

Probably not very good questions, but there you go. Clock's ticking.

3) You can take this question again, it was actually ripper that flipped the robot OOTA :P
4) CORRECT! - Additionally, this chunk of debris flew millimetres away from James Cooper's head,which would of killed him
5) INCORRECT! - Big Nipper won, Iron Awe 5 actually came third
