Daily trivia Tournament

Agreed. more people make it more fun

 

[Kooshdakhaa]

I've done a couple games, too. Going to go play one right now!

 

[Kooshdakhaa]

Waaahhh! I guess my role is going to be to make everybody else feel good by beating me! : )

I don't care, I love trivia games. The first time I played I got all of them right (or 9 out of 10) because I googled all the answers. But I was really slow. So now I don't look up any answers and just concentrate on being fast.

It gets easier to find places to shave seconds off.

You get a rhythm going. You get some repeat questions. Maybe sometimes answer without even reading the whole question.

If you have a touch screen device that could save you a lot of time (I've heard). I don't have one.



When Bill was playing he was hard to beat. He would regularly finish in under 40 seconds. So I used to set the print smaller than usual in advance to avoid having to scroll down as often. Now it's a little more leisurely. (*winks at Bill, in case he checks in on this thread* )

 

[Kooshdakhaa]

deaddogseye is tough to beat, eh? : )

 

[Zoom-boing]

I forgot about this trivia game. Just played, got 8 right (would have gotten 9 but didn't see question 5. Like, DUH). Took me 99 secs though ...

 

[Kooshdakhaa]

I'm in first place today! OMG, I don't believe it! I feel like Cochran when he won his first immunity challenge on Survivor recently! : )

 

[Amelia]

I'm rooting for Cochran!


But I won't throw a challenge.

 

[Kooshdakhaa]

I'm rooting for Cochran!


But I won't throw a challenge.

Ah, you beat me! : ) I don't care! I'm still in second place. I was starting to get a complex from being in last place every time. : )

I can imagine missing a question! The way it's laid out it's kind of distracting. I have a hard time concentrating for some reason, my eye keeps wandering. But I'm working on it. : )

 

[Kooshdakhaa]

Okay, after my brief shining moments of being in first and second place a couple of times, I've been back in last place for several days now. : (

That's okay, I love a challenge.

*Kooshdakhaa mutters under her breath, and gives Amelia sideways dirty looks.*



Just kidding...sort of.

 

[TemplarKormac]

Well, my time wasn't good.. but I got 8 of 10 correct..

Keep doing it...your time will get better as you get used to the format.

 

[Kooshdakhaa]

ARRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!

I missed what word was French for thank you! I know French, dammit! For some reason I just didn't see "merci" as one of the choices so I clicked on "none of the above." : (

That's one of the hazards of trying to shorten your time.

 

[Amelia]

I dropped into play today but it was as bad as I expected. My main computer is out of commission and the touch controls on this laptop are crazy. Sooooo ... y'all have fun! I'm gonna wait until I get back on my other computer.
