Die Hard Scorpions Fan Competiton

[ScorpfanUkraine]

His name is Otto Waalkes.

[Hans]

I know it, but it would be unfair because I'm german (und habe mir ...., der Liebesfilm im Kino angeschaut).

just a little tip: the name of his name is the same no matter if you read it forward or backwards.

[Inulka]

In russian network there's the video of this episode. But I can't find it on youtube.
So, I agree with Vladimir that his name is Otto Waalkes. The pic of him with Klaus:

His name is Otto Waalkes.

That´s totally right Vladimir!!!

Thanks to Hans he did not answer of course he knows this great comedian/actor from Germany. Therefore I´d like to ask Hans to give a little explanation of who Otto Waalkes is, lots of non Germans might not have a clue who we are talking about, although I´ve gotta rush to attend the meet and greet in a little while and have no time at the moment for this
Thank You Hans for this in advance, I´ll blagg a guitar pick for You from Rudolf or Matthias for Your help on this question

For it was Vladimir´s third correct answer in this topic yet I think I have to find diffent price for him which is not easy cuz I have to consider that it has to be shipped to Ukraine and no big parcels will easlily cross ukrainian ustoms I am afraid.
Will find something special for You the next few days and let You know, Vladimir

Stay tuned on this topic folks, there are further questions waiting for You soon

[Hans]

Ok, let’s see: Otto Waalkes is a german comedian. But he is not just a comedian, for germany he is something like the godfather of comedy. Here in germany we call him simply ‘Otto’, that means when you talk about Otto everybody knows who you are talking about.

He began with his kind of humour in the 70s when something like this didn’t exist. His career – from my point of view – began with records. When you wanted to listen to something funny to this time, you had to have these records. And then he had a TV show that came once a year, between he was touring. A lot of his jokes became real classics and it would be very easy for me to quote a lot of them without looking somewhere, but they are very german (like Tomatobrotomat, Otto und seine schwulen Schlümpfe, Dupschek, Hänsel und Gretel, …). In 1985 Otto began to make movies. This is a clip from the first movie and even it’s in german I guess it is understood internationally:

Watch on youtube.com

you just need to know who this man is:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heino

the movie in which Klaus appeared was the fourth Otto movie with the name “Otto, der Liebesfilm” (=Otto, the love movie). In this movie ‘wind of change’ is an again and again appearing melody, for example it was the melody to open the safe of the bad guy (in which have been some documents which expose him as the bad guy)

Ok. Thank you Hans !!

And now the Q&A session happened when I was sleeping

Seriously, can you just give us a day or so, so everybody may have a chance to submit their answers. Then you can decide who the winner is

It's a good competition, but my loss of chances is getting worse.

Why Phuong, Could you have answered the questions?

In my opinion it is just a funny game.
I really know that I won't be able to answer the questions, but I really enjoy the topic without getting a postcard as well.
In my opinion the topic would be too monotonous, and boring if there was a whole day between two questions.

Inna, Vlad, congrats to your postcards.
Hans, thanks for your information about the comedian.
Now, I will look forward to the next question.

[Hans]

btw. here's another little goodie (but unfortunately no video just audio)

Otto sings wind of change (in german)

Wow Gabi, I said that I liked the idea of this competition, thanks Ben!
But can we just change a bit in the rules so everybody may get equal chance?

My dear Phuong, I am sorry that You didn´t yet anything. The reason why You did not win is very simple. This is a little funny game, nothing in this topic will change the world nothing will make anybody rich or poor, but even on games where the prices are less value there is one thing very important and that is fair play!
How can I be the one who decides the winner and with what premisses should I choose a winner when I set up a deadline getting a few correct answers?
To keep this little thing fair the rule is simply first correct answer wins. I think this is the most fairplay we can do here and I truely belive everybody who takes part in this here agrees with this one single rule

By the way, there was already one question where You fans had to estimate the answer and I set a deadline of more than 24 hrs for this but most of the questions will be first correct answer wins

Maybe it's unfair from my side to win few times already. But I was just in right place and in right time. Also I knew the answers Anyway I would like to give one of my prize to someone who wasn't able to answer.

I do not pretend for anything in exchange. This topic is very cool and I'm here just for fun and not specially for the prizes.

[Inulka]

As Vladimir posted be4 he's ready to give one of his prizes to those who couldn't win..without any exchange,
Ok, Vov, since there r ppl that envy u.. maybe u give them a chance and post after them or in a couple of hours after Ben will post a next question
I saw on FB enough jealous posts...

Inn, I can even skip all the questions and let other people to answer. It's not a problem. I wanted to do it even earlier than I read those nasty and dirty comments on FB. Jealousy is a bad feeling!

[Scorpions Truck]

What kind of nasty and jealous FB posts are Ya talking about???

[HANS33]

Vladimir if you took any of my FB comments in a dirty or nasty way I apologise.
They were meant in a funny way, in the spirit of this whole topic (by far the most funny topic on this forum for the moment BTW).

[ScorpfanUkraine]

Ben it's ok. It's just one person who made me guilty in every sin.

Hans it's not you I'm talking about. It's just one person who started that topic on FB.

[Scorpions Truck]

Before going to sleep here the todays question, this time really tough.

There are actually 15 sCREWpions on tour including the special-rigger and the merchandise guy.

They all come from different countries.

The question is, how many nationalities do we have in the sCREWpions? If one knows even the countries we all are coming from I will call him/her genious
And the hint is: It´s more than 5 but less than 14 nationalities.....

Have fun
