If you just clicked on this link because you saw the word "Discworld," don your lilacs and prepare for battle. If you currently have to ask a superior h'officer whether you should be wearing flowers, then it's time to ask yourself, "Have I been there?" If your answer to that question is "No," then it's time start PMing those who have and learn how to travel there. [The OP's personal recommendation is with the "Hogfather" mini-series produced by BBC.]
This is going to be a largely trivia based game, but the gods have not finished rolling the dice as to exactly how it will work. As of right now, there are only four decided rules, which are as follow:
1) I shall be posting Discworld trivia questions roughly once a day. Questions will vary in difficulty.
2) Players wishing to play can do so by answering questions, preferably without using google or other resources.*
3) Players should put answers in spoilers, and other players shouldn't just peek at others' answers and copy, nor should players edit answers after the fact.
4) The rules can change at any moment.**
*Although declaring to oneself, "A-ha, I think I know what book that's in!" and then proceeding to re-read it is very warmly welcomed.
**The game is evolving, and the god of evolution has just found out about some rather shocking information regarding a more humorous way of making new variations.

[This list will be frequently edited. Actually, you'll see me editing a lot, but please trust me that it's for the sake of clarity, as I'm trying to translate real coding into a one-man-run game on an odd interface.]

We start with two questions.
First, the Discworld floats through space on the backs of four elephants on the back of a giant turtle; what is the name of the turtle?
{This question is categorized as "Detritus."}
Second, what are the names of the four elephants?
{This question is categorized as "Carrot."}
