1 The Great Fire of 282 was caused by which unlikely trio of creatures? How would you prevent a reoccurence?

A trio of :air Nymphs got drunk by great amounts of beer and started farting. Their farts had the destructive, well-known result of the Great Fire of 282. The way to prevent of this happening once again is simple; do not let :air Nymphs to drink beer or any other alcoholic drink. It just causes a lot of farts, dude! I always said that drinking is a man's sport. Do NOT let ladies get drunk again. Unlike what most people believe, women CAN fart, with disastrous results! Myth Busters have proven that! I know I am using impolite language right now, but please let me pass this test, dear examiner. I have failed this test 3 times in a row already...

3 What was the name of the 13th discovered element? Explain why it is no longer used today. Be sure to include a thorough accounting of the strengths and weaknesses that led to its demise. Compare with two other elements in terms of spell composition, creature durability, and artifact utility.

Unlike what most people believe, the 13th element wasn't just a single element but a combination of two opposing elements; Wood and Metal. Unlike the rest of the elements that were creature-based, Wood and Metal were permanent-based ones, having cheap and strong permanents but weak and expensive creatures and spells. In order to overcome their weakness, they had lots of permanents with the ability to transform into creatures and vice-versa. They also had permanent-based winning conditions in the form of spell cards, like winning the game after having all their permanent slots filled with permanents, including the weapon and shield slots (the infamous Industrial Win spell card of Metal) or dealing damage equal to the total number of pillars/pends you AND your opponent controls (the famous Root Harvest spell of Wood) which could kill the opponent in one turn when spammed. However, unlike :light who had strong healing cards and :fire who had strong rushing potential, both Wood and Metal lacked any in-element cards to support either a rush-based or a stall-based deck, leading them to their demise. They were like Antlion; interesting but just too ineffective for what they did...

5 During the Seventh Crusade, which dragon caused the most logistical issues for their army? (Hint: it involves feeding)

The Jade Dragons caused the most logistical issues for their army. The problem had to do with their feeding habits. They just couldn't resist to eat the small and delicious-looking Leaf Dragons of their own army and, as a result, their commander couldn't spam more of their own kind. They even used the power of Mitosis onto Leaf Dragons in order to supply Jade Dragons with plenty of food, hoping that at least a single Leaf Dragon would survive their nasty appetite, but in the end the Jade Dragons just ate any one of them...
