Legends of the Hidden Temple Trivia

[nicklegends]

The Silk Sash of Mulan, Galileo's Cannonball, The Trojan Horseshoe, King Tut's Cobra Staff, and The Mask of Shaka Zulu all have 18 letters...

[The Bamboo Forest]

By syllables, it would be "The Trojan Horseshoe" or "King Tut's Cobra Staff".

[The Bandit King]

I was going by letters, and Ed got it right - five episodes share the record for shortest episode title.

I thought I'd get more people with that one...

[The Silver Monkey]

Let's get this going again, shall we?

We all know that the Ruby Earring of bin-Zibab has the distinction of being the fastest team completion in the show's history. But what episode held the record previously?

[The Ancient Warrior]

That would be "Robin Hood and Marian's Silk Ladder," with 33 seconds left.

[The Silver Monkey]

That is correct. Coincidentally, both were Silver Snakes runs.

[The Ancient Warrior]

So, there's been a statistical error.  There's another team besides the Purple Parrots in "The Snakeskin Boots of Billy the Kid" that placed first in everything.  Name it.

[The Silver Monkey]

Blue Barracudas in John Sutter and the Map to the Lost Gold Mine.

EDIT: Silver Snakes in Robin Hood and Marian's Ladder did it, too.

[The Ancient Warrior]

I also would've accepted the Blue Barracudas from "The Belly Button of Buddha." The only distinction the Purple Parrots from "The Snakeskin Boots of Billy the Kid" seem to have is that they absolutely swept the Steps rather than just placing in first.

Name the two teams that earned the bare minimum needed to get to the Temple.

[The Silver Monkey]

I know the team in "The Snow Cone of Mt. Kilimanjaro" did it, but I can't place the other.

[The Ancient Warrior]

Incorrect.

[The Silver Monkey]

I mixed it up with "The War Fan of the 47 Ronin"

And the team in "The Enormous Feather of the Mi Lingh" did it as well.

[The Ancient Warrior]

That is correct.

Reviving the topic:

What are the only 2 layouts to have all of its temple runners at least enter the room housing the artifact?

[The Ancient Warrior]

Two of them? Obviously one of them is Layout IX of Season 1, but I can't think of the other.  My best guess would be Layout VIII of Season 1, but then you have "The Codebook of Mata Hari"...
