Welcome to Whale Diplomacy!
The Whales Have Evolved
They have grown intelligent, built their own weapons, and now they want one thing.
REVENGE
And now you, yes -YOU- have been chosen to represent the humans in a parley for peace. But there is a catch. The whales have declared that they will only consider peace if you can prove that you know your whale facts, and maybe show that humanity has grown a little self-aware in the process. Now it's up to your wits, and your memory for whale trivia to stand between keeping the peace and an all out Whale War, that humanity cannot hope to win.
How to Play Their Game
This is a timed multiple-choice quiz. After you hit start, you will have twenty seconds to answer the question. To do so, simply click on the button of the statement that best answers the whales' question. Your answers or lack thereof will be noted by the whales. When the time is up, the answer will be revealed and after a short waiting period the next question will begin. After all ten questions have been completed, the whales will judge humanity. If you fail, we have a backup plan. We have built a limited time-stream manipulator that will reset the timeline to before you began the quiz, so you can have multiple chances to get it right. Humanity is counting on you. Godspeed.

The lead whale pokes you. "Wow. It has gone brain-dead."
It looks at its companions. "The humans' brains are too fragile to handle our majesty. They have devolved while we have advanced. Clearly they will be nothing but animals or dead in the next century. I believe a war is unnessesary. We may simply bide our time, as our ascendency is inevitable."
It pats you on your head with an enormous fin. "Poor thing," it murmurs. The whales swim away.
Congratulations! You have avoided the Whale War!
The lead whale's eyes burn red in fury. "You knew nothing! Your people have not learned from your past whatsoever. You ignore us except when our deaths serve your greed. This means war!"
The bloodthirsty whales give an eerie wailing whalesong of war.
Their leader looks you in the eyes, "And you will be first." It says in a low growl.
You have utterly failed. The Whale War has begun.
Their leader scoffs at you. "You hardly know anything. A child amongst our kind knows more of you than you know of us. Your people have sent us a fool. Such an offense can only mean war!"
The bloodthirsty whales give an eerie wailing whalesong of war. The Whale War has begun.
The lead whale eyes you, "I see that you at least knew something of our kind. Perhaps not all of you are hopeless. Still, your kind remains a danger to us. We will keep you, and others worthy enough amongst you as pets. I am sorry, little one, but this is a just and nessesary war."
The bloodthirsty whales give an eerie wailing whalesong of war. Despite getting most of the answers correct, you only managed to save your life.
Humanity's days are numbered. The Whale War has begun.
The lead whale's eyes narrow. "Clever," it says. "You are very well informed indeed. Too well informed. You got every question correct. This can only mean one thing..."
Its companions nod. "You must be spying on us!" The whales swim around you and your companions in a furious raging whirlpool. "THIS MEANS WAR!" The lead whale roars.
Congratulations! You got all questions correct! Unfortunately you, and everyone you ever loved are still doomed. The Whale War has begun.
