[Saison]

Access denied. Banned at work. :(

Bummer, cuz I'm awesome at trivia.

[TopsyTurvy]

Is no one interested in playing my quiz? It took a lot of time and effort to set up. :(

Disclaimer: 'A lot of time' means about 10 minutes and 'effort' means a few mouse clicks.

[Saison]

I will play when I get home. :)

[TopsyTurvy]

Oh some have apologies, if people don't want to post scores here I will post the daily scores when it resets to the next day.

Daily categories are:

***NEW!***

Sunday - Music 2 : Intermediate
Monday - Science & Technology 2 : Intermediate
Tuesday - FunTrivia Mix
Wednesday - General Knowledge 4 : Harder
Thursday - Animals
Friday - Literature 2 : More Difficult
Saturday - Religion 2 People 2 : More Difficult

Also to avoid cheating (not that I'm suggesting anyone would) each player gets different questions.

And scores depend on two things, correct answers and how quick you complete (so Googling is bad). If two people get 10/10 but one finishes one second quicker they get a better score.

[TopsyTurvy]

QI is fantastic. I wish Stephen Fry would adopt me haha.

[Lulu]

10/10 - 311 seconds. I had to google a couple though. :D

[TopsyTurvy]

10/10 - 311 seconds. I had to google a couple though. :D

Lol IMO it's not really worth using google, the time it takes to find the right answer loses you more points than getting it wrong, I got 32 points more than you even though I only got 8/10. :hmm:

Congrats being the first one to get 10/10 though hehe.

[Lulu]

I understand the game now :D I didn't realize I had to do it quickly too. I had a moment of insecurity about my science knowledge.

[Arkady]

It won't let me sign up to play. I already use that site for another quiz I play on another forum so...yeah, I doesn't work for me. Pity, because I can do most of those quizzes in under 50 seconds.

That flower question tripped me up.

[Ross22]

so you have to open an account?

[Arkady]

so you have to open an account?

Yeah, it is easy if you don't already have an account there.

[Ross22]

I just played but came in last place....took too long to answer :(

[Arkady]

In am usually quick to answer them but it won't accept my login for some reason.

[Ross22]

perhaps you gave an incorrect email address?

[Arkady]

perhaps you gave an incorrect email address?

I gave a different email as it won't let you use the same one. Doesn't seem to work.

[Ross22]

I just created a new yahoo email addy and then used it and voila...it worked :)

[Arkady]

I can't be bothered taking the time to make a new addy though. Oh well.

[Ross22]

I guess you can't play the same quiz more than once? Only once a day?

[Arkady]

Nah, I think it's because I already have an account there.

Not to worry - but y'all should know that if I could play, I'd beat you all!

[Ross22]

you will easily beat me I came in last LOL :D

[TeZCaTLiPoCa]

Probably. I am convinced however, based on comments made in this thread, that not everyone takes the same quiz. Maybe it's just random from minute to minute? Anyway, you can't fault a neegah for trying! (Well, actually you can, but fuck it).

Your Answer: baker

The correct answer was postman.

COD, cash on delivery

personally, my postman has never taken cash on delivery. indeed when i buy my newspaper in the morning in another shop and the breadman is making his delivery. you'll see the till girl paying the bread man for the money
so i strongly disagree

lol... yeah... when that happens I’m sure it sucks to be from the other side of the pond... sorry 'bout that...

it works both ways though...

I recall quizzes that were loaded with questions about UK train stations and tv shows and such...

about which I of course have NFI… :hmm:


my favorite such NFI questions usually involve the UK (or some place that used to be a part of the British Empire)...

and goes something like this:

In (some random year), which of the following towns (that I never heard of) hosted the championship for (a sport I know nothing about), in which (some person I never heard of) scored the game-winning (sports term I never heard of) for the (team I never heard of) to defeat the (other team I never heard of) by a score of (a pair of random numbers separated by a hyphen) and win the (sports trophy I never heard of)? Hint: The town hosting the championship is famous for its (culinary dish I never heard of), and the captain of (one of the two teams I never heard of) used to be married to the popular star of (some tv show I never heard of), who originally hailed from this town, and whose mother became highly successful in her own right by selling her secret recipe for (the town’s culinary specialty I never heard of) to the (brand name I never heard of) for (a big number preceded by a funny-looking symbol).

[SivVulk]

i got 9/10 on the last General knowledge one... Now i do like winning like all people do but sometimes it just doesn't feel the same... Especially when you win with a 4 out of 10 score as was the case this Saturday.

nicely done! I like how our leaderboard is composed of three people with different nationalities, American, Irish and Canadian.

And imagine that if you reverse the letters you get "CIA" :eek:

What's missing though is the return of the quizmaster, it's not the same without her competing as well. Some one has to represent St. John ;)
