FG Trivia

Post by spot »

For some reason nobody's started a FG contest area on the funtrivia quiz site. Maybe we could try it and see how it feels.

Those I've seen have had too few daily contestants and "easy" settings. How about if we play through September on "difficult" settings with as many players as we can muster and see if it's more exciting that way?

The quiz I've set up is here. I'll happily hand it over to anyone who wants to run it and after September we can vote on changing the difficulty level if it's set too hard to be fun.

Anyone up for it?

There'll be a close-fought contest between the rest of us for second place then.

I just gave it a try. I think if we can get more like twenty of us in there each day it'll get to be fun.

Registering your username is a 4-line thing just to let you tell it the password you'll use, it doesn't email you or get personal.

MORE VOLUNTEERS PLEASE!

Odie, there's a different topic for each day of the week. Different people will bubble higher than others on different days. The "easy" categories seemed more likely to be just plain randomly silly when I was choosing what level to ask for.

We've nine in there - I hope they've bookmarked it and they'll be in daily.

It's not enough to be exciting yet, may we have another nine please? Come on, get in there and take a shot at it, it's two minutes a day.

My theory is that if there's at least one person in there getting a ten on any given day then it gets the rest of us to pull our socks up.

We've a dozen playing - can I tempt another twelve to join up? Two minutes a day, folks, with a bunch of people you all already know.

Oh well...Those words are very familiar when spoken in that sense...

It's usually followed by..."then you can kiss my ***!!!" so I'd hoped you were referring to the song...
