QuiZZy's Love Adventure to Australia


It was winter 2015 in Germany when QuiZZy was parting with mates at the pub on the north coast and his best mate was getting married to an Aussie surfer. Every time QuiZZy went to the pub for dinner he kept asking why he was still single and why his mate had the most beautiful kind hearted person he had ever seen. On evening his friend (Jon) asked him to come to Australia to be his best man. QuiZZy pondering about how single he was and always feeling really down said yes to Jon and later that month they travelled the 26 hour flight to Australia. All what QuiZZy had on his mind was finding a lovely single women to call his own.

They landed in Sydney for New Years Eve and headed up the East coast to Byron Bay. Jon and QuiZZy went to meet up with Jon's wife to be as they walked along the beach a group of young females ran towards QuiZZy bringing him to tears as he had never seen so much beauty. He feel in love but his problem was how would he ask one of them on a date. QuiZZy is now sitting on the sand crying when one of them asks them where they are from and where have been. When Jon replies they are on a holiday and QuiZZy is the best man for the wedding tomorrow and that its his bucks night. So the ladies decide to offer them one party they will never forget.

wq6OfCY.jpg

Later that evening they met at the same place and walked to one of the beach shacks the ladies been staying that they set up for the guys. In Aussie tradition they had a beach party and a bbq. Everyone got to know each other and had a few drinks. The following morning QuiZZy woke up on the floor with one of the young ladies... and she made him some bacon & eggs for breakfast. He was over the moon that he had such a great night and asked Katie if she wouldn't mind spending the day with him.

They went out for lunch leaving Jon to get ready for the wedding and met him there just before sunset on the beach where the wedding was to be held. Little to Jon's knowledge QuiZZy was falling in love with Katie and wanted to stay longer after the wedding to be with here. After the perfect sunset and wedding evening they all gathered one last night before Jon and his new wife went on there honeymoon to Queensland. Now that QuiZZy found his love and wants to stay has a hard decision to leave and head back home after a few weeks of fun when Katie decides to go with him to Germany to meet his friends and family.

QuiZZy returns home mid January and its snowing. Katie's first time seeing snow. They spend a few weeks seeing friends and family before Katie has to go back home. Just a few hours before Katie is meant to leave to go back to Australia QuiZZy decides he would like to marry her and asks her in front of all his friends. She says yes, but she doesn't want to live out of Australia. So he tells her he will come and visit very soon. Katie catches the plane and heads home ready and happy to she her loyal friends when she gets a call on the plane from QuiZZy announcing he's moving to Australia and on the next flight. When he arrives in Australia Jon is there with his perfect wife to pick them up and do the drive back to Byron Bay again before flying back himself.

Two months later QuiZZy is learning to surf. Enjoying the warmer summer weather and truly deeply in love with Katie. They plan to follow the sun together before deciding to get married.

This is my story on Quizzy's adventure for love in Australia and is happily spending his time with a young lady called Katie who is teaching him all things about a surfers' life. For how they eat a vegan diet and sustainable food and energy to surfing the best coastline of Australia. Not only is the surfing community his new friends they have all adopted him as family including the local surfer guys.

Story #2

Quizzy was a young man, he wondered away from home.
Then one day he realized, he is now all alone!
While he questioned his existence, but he knew of his return.
The town cried "Quizzy! Quizzy will you come back home!?!"
When Quizzy heard the cries, he turned around and headed home.
On his way he ran across a small lonely elf...
it was sitting on a tree-stump Quizzy had cut himself.
He asked the elf if it heard the cries...
the elf said "No, I only hear with my eyes...
Would you like to join me in my lifelong journey?"
The answer was "No, nice to meet you, I am known as Quizzy...
If you want a true journey, then come with me."
When Quizzy was back in town, there was much celebration.
He was asked to wear the Crown and lead the nation.
Quizzy said "No, not by myself...
You should ask my friend, the elf"
The town cried tears of joy, knowing Quizzy was back at home
They crowned the elf king...
and gave Quizzy a diamond ring.
Now the elf is the king,
but Quizzy wears the ring
Where will this journey end?
It is on Quizzy's hand...

The end

Hi there, my name is QuiZZy. I am your quizmaster. I travel from the stone age to the far future and beyond. I am your local time master, eternally 42 years old, and looking for the right question to entertain you all. I may have travelled the universe, embarked on many a great journey to discover the lost mysteries of the grand old peoples and the yet to be, my wondering spirit has returned to the Earth as often as cannot be recounted. You, the people of Earth are the hope and future of the Universe, and I am here to guide you through the mysteries of chance and fun. Bear with me when I ask the unknown, for it surely is not the unknowable, only the unknowing that will fail the quest. You, the Beta crew, the Beta players are the vanguard of the world, of the great race of **** Ludens Innoque. You can solve the riddles of old and new and release the power of the knowing … the knowing of what holds the playful secret of the question and the answer, of the truth that lies within us all.

Ask not what I can do for you, ask what you can do for your world; you, the player, can seek the answers, so we together can establish the importance of the questions. And all the worlds can then rejoice in the growing of the knowledge that leads us to the Ice Age Far Future and beyond. Battle and play, answer the requested and you will triumph … for the betterment of all that hold these worlds so dear.

Story #4

Hello friends ...
I missed of you, but I had an adventure that few will believe ...
I've been out for a while, because it was quiet home and soon after dinner my dog started barking very strong and when I looked out the window I noticed a bright light coming from the backyard of my house, I was curious and went to see what was happening.
I let my dog thinking that he would accompany me, but the damned ran in the opposite direction to the light. I was paralyzed with fear, but still went to see what was that light ...
The closer I got stronger light and when I got close I was abducted and taken to another planet ...
It was a very large nature and the beings looked like frogs and had a very shiny white ...
There they auditioned with my body (UUUI as doi ...), and reaped genetic material, could not understand anything that those strange creatures said, but I think I will soon have offspring ...
I was desperate when they put me in a kind of tube and filled with a viscous liquid, but reassured me because I could breathe this liquid ...
I fell asleep and when I realized I was back in the same place near my house where the light appeared, they were in my clothes and my body was luscious with that viscous liquid, my dog was licking me and glad I came back, should be hungry poor ...
After all I went through I came to the conclusion that too played in F.O.E. in the era of the future and it occurred to me not to take very seriously my jokes.
I believe that when launching new eras will have qu me adapt to new situations and new adventures ...
wait for me...
see you soon...
 
Story #5

Life is a series of accidents. Accidents are not always bad though, sometimes they bear a pleasant surprise. I’ve lived my life entirely in my small town. A peaceful village most marked by the magnificent town hall made of red and black brick. The climate fair, though at times the wind would sweep through and blow the tobacco plants or sweep a color guard’s flag away. I always liked to spend my time under the tree of love, just outside of the town hall. I would sit and watch people coming and going from the building, but one person caught my eye. The lovely duchess Lain of the next village over. She came sparingly, but each time would leave a nick on my heart. Always proceeded with a team of dragoons pattering about on the brick road, I could never find a way to approach her as I sat under that tree of love. My heart raced, I clenched my fists and looked down into the grass each time. She burns like the sun, and I can’t look for more than an instant. I paced around the tree of love trying to think about how to get just a moment alone with her to confess my feelings. I met with my friend, and we planned a riot to lure the dragoons away from her. I waited outside the town hall under the tree of love while my friend set off some field guns which made a thunderous sound and shook the earth. That set off the horses, as I grabbed the duchess’ hand. I pulled her under the tree, my heart racing faster than the horses and my palms sweating. I forgot my eloquent speech and muttered something to her. She looked quite frightened with all of the commotion. A gust of wind blew through and I was suddenly struck on the head by an apple from the tree, and she let go of my hand as I fell to the ground unconscious. The failure made me quite enraged. I kicked that tree of love and threw the apple. Why?! Why has this happened?! I looked at the apples in the tree. Why do these apples fall to the ground? Did the gods plan to mock me? What kind of force has there between the sky and the ground? In my anger, I set up a series of experiments which demonstrated a force in the world called “gravity”, or the attraction of terrestrial bodies towards the earth. And by that day I swore against the traitorous tree of love!

Story #7

I was given several names, the nomad, the observer, the negotiator, the immortal.
This makes me smile thinking about it because I am a bit and all at once. This is my story, take the trouble to listen.
Since the dawn of time, I travel the regions of the world because I am a nomad.
I have watched civilizations born, die, grow across regions and across time. Number of war between her, I could watch without intervening and helpless. Alliances as durable or not, I was born. But my role is not to intervene in the actions of these people. I'm an observer.
My role is to discover these peoples new territories, resources. Without anyone knowing, I explore from continent to continent across the sea and through the ages. In search of discovery ever I meet new warlike tribes, warlike or ready to negotiate their territory, material, technology. For it is kind of my role as negotiator.
I have to constantly discover these civilizations that constantly grow these new horizons, facing eternity. But if one day this world is too small for them, not develop, it will take me from you to the stars, new conquests of infinite space?
No matter the length of these new quests waiting for me because I'm immortal.
This is my story, my actions, my role and my name is QUIZZY

Story #9

“The free soul is rare, but you know it when you see it - basically because you feel good, very good, when you are near or with them.”
(Charles Bukowski)

Quizzy is the Free Soul.
You meet him by chance. It is a privilege.
After the meeting, you know you will pursue him anywhere, seek him in everyone and be sick because you will never succeed in getting close at him.
Because wellbeing sensation radiating from him is the essence of life.
It’s the mirror reflecting you as a kid.
It’s the discovery about what makes mankind similar each other , respecting what makes mankind different.
It’s “the pact” you promised yourself never to break.
It’s the humility you need to get knowledge.
It’s the wellbeing you feel when you pursue a common goal.
It’s the capacity to exercise the mind without forgetting your smile.

I met him, Quizzy, just here in FOE a few months ago.
He was bouncing irreverent along the chat between thousands of gasps. He was dribbling requests, incoherent phrases, coded laughter and hundreds of idioms. He was throwing his challenges in return of his gifts. Calm he was asking questions, patient he was awaiting excited replies.
He was a boy or so he looked.
He had a skinny body which was emanating warm and chameleonic colours to hide or show his apparition; silvery eyes like a mountain lake on whom undefinite sadness emerges, sadness typical of souls where intellect overcomes perception; and a fearless placid voice.
I had the instinct to set a trap for him and take possession of that freed soul , but poverty awareness you feel when trying to seize desire of play was immense, so I just looked at him pass through.
Knowing without any regrets that I would have been carrying on to dream up for long time and to play with great positivity.

Story #11

In September 2014, had Quizzy had received her Bachelor of Arts degree in graphic design. She had worked tirelessly for Inno Games as an undergraduate, sketching innovative designs for the upcoming graphic changes to Forge of Empires. Of course, as an undergraduate, she was over worked and under paid, and had also been tasked with setting challenging questions for the forums, for which she had a gift... but Inno had no idea how she came up with such inventive questions.....
After graduating, Quizzy realised that she had been studying so much that her forum questions were getting a little harder to create, so she decided to take a year out and go to see her very good friend Boris Al Q'aral the Ninth, who had a rather nice home in Bali, and the largest library of books every owned by a single man.
After arriving at Boris's home, they exchanged their customary hugs and kisses, and sat up for 72 hours straight exchanging stories about their lives over the last 12 months. And after a good 18 hour sleep, Quizzy went to the library rooms to start her research.
Now as the reader, you may say, "oh wow, is that it? she goes off and reads some books for a bit and then comes home?", well no, because Quizzy had a very special gift... She can walk through books... not just in her imagination, but in reality. To such an extent that she can change the story if she isn't careful. She meets the characters, she interacts with the environments, she can ask anything.
And so Quizzy spend the next few months walking through the books... She had Tea with the Mad Hatter; she ate candy at Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory, conversing with Oompa-loompas about their home country; Rode an Armoured Bear in The Golden Compass; Had to chase Gollum half way across a country in The Hobbit, because he stole her 'precious' ankle bracelet; There was a bit of trouble with Sherlock Holmes, when he spent more time investigating Quizzy that actually answering any of her questions, it was only because of the timely intervention of Doctor Watson that she was able to escape.
So after 18 months of dragons, fairies, heroes, villains, mountains, valleys, oceans, skies, food and drink, and many things besides, it was time for Quizzy to return to Europe, her mind suitably refreshed and informed, to start writing questions for the Inno forums again, and with her usual flourish, she drew up her graphical inspirations, and wrote new and challenging questions for the Forums.... and Inno had no idea how she came up with such inventive questions...

Story #12

Once upon a time there were QuiZZy – little dumbo rat that was brighter than anyone in whole www that existed. It had a dream – great dream that anyone could ever imagine. A place to rule over, build and concuer and get to know if somewhere could be someone as intelligent as it was. So, it sat in it’s home and daydreamed so intensitively that FoE game came to be in internet. Long time Quizzy had lots of fun with humans – some aliens from out of internet that tought they are a center of universum and all that nonsense – doing quizzes and riddles. Nobody of us knew that it could see us and was planning something


One day I played FoE with my rat Haihatti in my lap when it leaped out of my lap and run on my computer, clickin and pushing my mouse. Haihatti ran over my keyboard over and over again. Then I saw something happenin in my town in game. Quizzy just opened the door of my townhouse and stepped right out of my computer to next to Haihatti. Well – long story as short – Quizzy moved to our ratgage with Haihatti and became very frienly with three lady rats. O, if I only knew that Quizzy was a male rat – but no!


As you all can imagine what comes if you put a lonely male with three very attractive females? And you all can think this is funny? Right? Well time just passed as QuiZZY fooled us all and pretended to be just one rat amongst the others. (They had so much fun together – once they even put one of our cats to a cage that is used when we clean the big one.) Until one day we heard lot af little piip –noises from cage. There were tiny little rats in one big pile and really happy dumborat sitting next to them. All was very cosy for couple of weeks. After that little rittens opened they eyes and started to get to know the world. At that point we kind of got suspicious, because the little ones were cleverer that other babyrats we had ever seen. These ate themselves out of cage (it has plastic floor) and we had to catch them not just one time, but many times. At that point we took Quizzy out of there and tryed to have a little talk with it, but …


It was just one second that Quizzy was gone and we never heard of it until today, as we read it had returned to cyberspace and FoE. All I know is that we have little rats that are more intelligent than we have ever seen. No cage can hold them and they seem to be plotting something. We separated girls and boys and are trying to keep it that way, but it was not long a go than one female rat escaped and got it self in other malerats cage. Now we are just waiting that is its belly starting to grow. And we have been learning about suprise pregnancyes amongs other ratbreeders near us …


(if wanted, we might still have some pictures of these events …)

Story #13

A young princess was running in the forest to get away from her entourage assigned by the King to keep her safe. She was tired of being watched all the time. With her skirts lifted, she jumped over streams and fallen logs until she came to a clearing. Out of breath, she stopped to have a rest. Suddenly, she heard the laughter of a child, mere feet away from where she stood. Scanning the glen, she saw no one. She was about to turn and run when a small little elf-like creature dropped from an oak tree on the edge of the glen. What she thought was a child was really a small man wearing the most peculiar costume of forest green. He doffed his hat to her crossing his ankles and bowing low.

"My dear princess, they call me Quizzy and if you would answer my riddle I would grant you any wish your heart desires." With that he winked at her and sat on the grass near her feet. Time stopped for the princess and all she could hear was the loud buzzing of the insects and feel the heat of the sun on her head. The world spun in circles and the ground rushed up to meet her as she fainted.

“Tsk, tsk,” said Quizzy “Now how in the world can you answer my riddle in that state!” He popped up, threw the princess over his shoulder, snapped his fingers and they disappeared from the glen. There was no sign of either of them when the castle guardians arrived. The buzzing of the insects and a slight breeze was all that was left where the princesses footprints ended.
