We used to have one of these Daily Trivia things, but it seems to have ended abruptly a while ago.
I thought we might try another? Simply create an account the first time you play and away you go.
Let's see how it goes. Might even put the Monthly winner up in the Hall of Fame :D

Great idea Saffy :biggrin:
The original one is still there... I believe Fender might still have the link... but I reckon it'll be too dusty to carry on with, lol.

Ah. I wasn't sure who was the Administrator of the old one - I thought it might be an old member who doesn't come onto the forum anymore, didn't realise it was the Resident Simian! NVM - I found the button that says "transfer the administration to another player", so when it goes wrong, I can palm it off......er I mean, transfer it ;)

*cough* Vik * cough* :razz: is the admin for the old quiz. Oddly, she ended up with it because I transferred it to her. Fen just kept playing the quiz until there was no denying it had kicked the bucket, lol. /me pokes Vik :twisted:

I carried on playing the old one because I was hoping people might come back to it ... and, erm, it was easy to win the month when it was just me lol :razz:
Great to see you've started a new one, Saffy - they're great fun! If somebody's never tried one of these quizzes I'd recommend they give it a whirl :biggrin:

Today's was ncier than yesterday's, but I don't know how you people answer in so little time... I need to read my questions and answers and it seems to take more than 100 seconds to me :P

It's 'cause some people have been playing it for years.. and the questions repeat themselves, too.. :razz:

It's a nice site! The questions aren't too hard either.

lol hahhaa... I've been playing for years, but I've never seen those questions. :razz: We just... uhm... read faster. For e.g., in the tungsten Q yesterday (I don't know if you got the same), the first line read "It is known as Wolfram" (or something almost like that). So, I chose Tungsten immediately and went on to the next question even without reading the rest of the question! Aww... I'm gonna miss Fridays. :sad:

I knew it was Tungsten before reading the whole question, but I had to read it... it's just how I am, I have to read the whole questions and options ^_^
ILoveMaths07
07-12-2008, 03:09 PM
yup Sunny, that's a good habit. you must always read the whole question carefully b4 answering. but when it's obvious... and time matters... and you know the rest of it is just more info on tungsten, u can always read it later! just click tungsten and move on!
Darn I could have got 10 on this last 1 but I changed my answer from Goliath Beetle to Stag Beetle for some stupid reason, otherwise I would have got 10 again! I am surprised at how many I keep getting right just from wild guesses! >< =D
Sunny1
07-12-2008, 06:22 PM
Yes, I didn't know 1 single answer from sports... I just guessed them all and got 5 points... 50% is pretty good for guessing if the answers have 4 options... I think :-S

07-12-2008, 06:44 PM
Heh, I guess we all get different questions? I didn't get any Goliath/Stag Beetle question...

The winner for the month could get to be the host for the next month?
The host chooses the categories for the questions, and chooses all/different, and then can pass it on to the next winner the next month.
^^ That was supposed to a quote, but I accidentally deleted the quote thingies.
I was just going to add that if you win twice in a row, perhaps the second time Tempus you could pass the hosting onto the person who came second or third, in order to give different people a chance to choose the categories :razz:
Edit: lol, I just edited the original post instead of quoting it in a reply.....*sigh*

Just realized you're going to have to do this every week Saff? XD
Hehe, I think it's a good idea to have the winner be the host ^_^
MrsNerdinator
08-12-2008, 09:00 AM
I don't mind that, 'cause it means I'll never need to host (I'm that bad at this) :razz:
lol @ getting the same score as Saffy, but being one second slower, hehe XD

08-12-2008, 11:02 AM
hmm nice idea... If I ever win, all will be Sci/Tech lolz... and prolly 1 FT Mix... or a mixture of Mix and Sci/Tech lolz... :razz::biggrin:
But I'll never win :sad:
Mine would be all Disney...maybe some chicken stuff threw in there too! =P
ILoveMaths07
08-12-2008, 08:08 PM
LOL hahahhahahahaha. There is no such main category as 'Disney'. You'll have to find it in one of the sub-categories, probably in 'For Children'. And the probability that a Disney question appears is 1/100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000.. . lol :razz:

I only joined this site yesterday. I quite like it, especially as I'm in first place in today's FunTrivia Mix at the moment :biggrin: Good guessing db :)
I also think the alternating host thing is a good idea :)

It finally took me less than 100 seconds to answer... I don't think I have to worry about hosting this any time soon :P

TF is probably hoping around now that Fender doesn't log into the quiz 2 minutes before it closes like he normally does :P

Handed the admin function over to the December 2008 winner:
Fender.
Choose your options, sir.

I don't see any changes made. ( I could be wrong!)
Are we to continue with the same set, or by any chance, a change is coming?
I am happy to wait... 'coz its Music today :eek:
Saffron
01-01-2009, 08:12 AM
LOL, Fender is usually on at very late hours for him (UK) so I would say the changes won't take effect until tomorrow your time, 'Sadri. Given that the amount of days in each month varies, a day or two to changeover shouldn't make toooooooo much difference overall. Cept if it's music I suppose ;)
