So, most questions you may ask will be in some way version specific.

I think you're looking at the situation from a very narrow point of view. Consider the following question:

If there are two Lemmings walking in the same direction, one right after the other, and the first one begins to build a bridge over a gap, how can you keep the second one from falling into the gap before the bridge is completed?

Should I specify a game version for such a question? I mean, maybe I was talking about the DOS version of ONML, or perhaps I was referring to Lemmings Revolution? And was the bridge made with a Builder or a Platformer? How many of these factors have any real bearing on the question?

The point here is that there are other kinds of questions besides straight-out trivia that pertains only to a particular game or even a particular level in a game. Game versions may not even be applicable to a question, so I don't think it's appropriate to assume that most questions will need to specify one.


[...] even when checking it with a calculator.

You know what, I'll just make a new thread so we can have general questions and specific questions over there. That sound fair?
This Lemmings forum is simply *fabulous*!

You forgot Mayhem 10. There are 40 repeated levels, 40 repeats of those levels, and 40 unique levels.

Which is the first Tricky level, other than We all fall down, that requires 100%? (DOS version)

Off the top of my head, I think Postcard from Lemmingland is the first. I know almost all the "early" Tricky levels are early versions of later hard levels, which don't require 100%. Maybe I missed one, don't know.

EDIT: I just checked and that appears to be right so here goes:

What's the only level in DOS/Amiga Lemming to give you exactly 21 of one type of skill, and which skill is it?

I believe "Pea Soup" has exactly 21 diggers.  (I have no idea why, though)

If you assign the Attractor skill in the Shadow Tribe of Lemmings 2 (DOS version), what musical instrument does the lemming play?

Organ? Not sure if I'm right though, I'll ask the next question.

I believe "Pea Soup" has exactly 21 diggers.  (I have no idea why, though)

I was thinking, you use a digger to break the staircase, then the rest of the diggers are used to land on each pea while you build.

The Shadow tribe's attractor is one lemming bashing two large cymbals together. I remember laughing at how the lemmings should be sneaky and quiet, and there's that one lemming trying to be as noisy as possible. :P

Is there a question on the table? If not...

The ZX Spectrum version of Lemmings's final level is, terrain-wise, extremely similar (but not quite the same) as what level of Amiga/DOS Lemmings?

I know this. It's Taxing 02: Watch out, there's traps about.

I don't have any questions to throw out right now, so i'm calling open floor.

That's because you hadn't answered the previous question correctly, so it wasn't your turn. However, it's your turn now so you can re-ask that question if you like. :)
