The player who only played 1 allblack test, who played the fewest provincial games...?

It'll be someone I've never heard of from 1906 when they hardly played...

Dammit... I only knew the 86.000 teddy question, which would probably have popped up soon enough...

I'm somewhat of an expert on DBZ... Anyone think they can get me?

(If you've got to ask what "DBZ" is, you won't be able to stump me...lol)

How does Goku die the first time?
SSGX
15-12-2004, 14:32
He is killed when the Makankosappo (Special Beam Cannon in the dub) that is shot by Piccolo to kill Raditz, hits him as well (Goku was holding onto Raditz to keep him from dodging, the beam goes through both of them)...

who are the creators of DBZ?
SSGX

Dragonball, the manga (Japanese comic book) that the Dragonball and Dragonball Z animes (Japanese cartoon series) are based upon was written and drawn by Akira Toriyama (Toriyama Akira, if you prefer the Japanese form of "family before self")...

A Japanese animation company, named Toei Animation, created the anime series based upon Toriyama's work...

The anime has been dubbed into many languages all around the world by various companies... The English versions of the dub have been worked on by Pioneer, Ocean Group, and FUNimation Studios (the current American licensee of the property, and the one that has dubbed the most of the DB/Z/GT English material)...

Anyone else? C'mon, something harder? lol

In just DBZ?

Well, here goes:

Goku
-Gohan
-Goten

Vegeta
-Trunks

King Kold
-Frieza
-Coola (movies only)

Cell
-Cell Jrs (this one's stretching it a bit, though...)

Garlic
-Garlic Jr (although Garlic is only referenced in a flashback in the first movie)

Paragus
-Brolly (movies only as well)

If you include DB, I can add Piccolo Daimaoh, and Piccolo (well, technically, it's not father-son, but more like "younger incarnation hatched from an egg"...lol)

If the movies and specials count, then I can also add Bardock as Goku's father (as well as King Vegeta as Vegeta's father)...

If you want to get technical, Saichorou/Guru is the father of all of the native Nameks...

Heck, I'll even go one further and include the father-daughter combos:

Mr "Hercule" Satan
-Videl

Gohan
-Pan

Krillen
-Marron

Vegeta
-Bra

Dr. Briefs
-Bulma

Ox King
-Chi Chi

Hmmm, I think that about covers it all...lol
