New Daily Quiz

[GlosRFC]

Okay, for all you Trivia and Quiz fiends, simply follow this link to a new daily quiz.

http://www.funtrivia.com/private/main.cfm?tid=18440

All you have to do is click on the Create a New Trivia Account link, enter an email address, a user name (the one you use in Win 2 Win is ideal) and a password. Click Ok and then start playing. :D

You can only play once per day and you will get ten completely random questions based on British trivia. It could be sports, politics, history, TV, music - in fact, almost anything. After you've submitted your answers your score is automatically calculated for you.

All the daily scores are then added together to reveal the Brain of Win 2 Win for the month with the top 5 scorers being recorded for posterity in the Hall of Fame As if that's not all, I will also be awarding a £10 Amazon voucher to the overall monthly winner for April.

So don't delay - play today!!

Glos,
You sly fox you...
I thought I'd have another go...
and improve my score...
But it won't bloody well let me, will it, 'til tomorrow.

Top Marks & Regards

Ada.

[GlosRFC]

Ah yes...very cunning :wink

Even worse, it throws up random questions for me too and I got one about horse-racing wrong!!!

[presto]

i have to admit, the vast majority of my answers were a compleat guess.
i must remember though - dont watch TV mid quiz. didn't know it was timed :(

[GlosRFC]

Well done to BigC - yesterdays daily winner and currently leading the monthly challenge

Who's going to knock him off the top spot today?

[GlosRFC]

We have a new daily leader but will he still be there with less than 11 hours to go?

The more players, the higher the points. And points make prizes - in this case a tenner for the overall highest score this month :D

So don't delay - register today!

There goes that invite into Mensa

[GlosRFC]

I've been suitably impressed by your efforts so far, Vegy :D

Ooooohhhh!! Dangle that carrot Glos!!!

I had a go, but they were really REALLY hard..... and that's my excuse

:D

[GlosRFC]

Sorry but I don't set the questions. If I did, I'd get most of them right! I thought I'd set it up for easy-peasy questions though so I'm afraid that excuse doesn't hold water :D

What I might do in future is to have themed months - Music for May, Sport for June, History for July, perhaps? Or themed weeks/days? Anyone got any views?

We also need to persuade some of the real brainiacs to take part - Merlin, Mathare, E55exboi, Fadetoblack, Win2Win etc

[mathare]

Have some of that!! :D

[GlosRFC]

Good score! I can see that this won't be a two-horse race.

Oh, Okay then......nice to know I am not labelled a braniac....ahem!

[GlosRFC]

But you're already taking part - and I have high hopes for you!

nice to know I am not labelled a braniac

I'm a cornflakiac myself :D

[Ruby]

You old smoothie you....:wink

[vegyjones]

57 seconds

[GlosRFC]

57 seconds....but only 8 right, Vegy - he should've taken lessons from Piggy

[markwales]

Piggy - 10 out of 10 ??!!!......Blimey Charlie !!

[piggy]

am i good or am i good , you bunch of dummies 10/10

[GlosRFC]

am i good or am i good , you bunch of dummies 10/10

Hahaha. Wait until the end of the month before you commence bragging rights :wink

[piggy]

don't be silly it's probably the only time i will be able to brag :D

[Fadetoblack]

Hmmm...General British Knowledge.....i'll give it a whirl sure...

[GlosRFC]

It's Corporal General Knowledge next month :D

Better go and give it a go myself now. I should point out that I'm automatically disqualified from winning the monthly prize.

Darn - one wrong. Who is Marco Pirroni anyway???

[Fadetoblack]

Wow...a couple of them were on the royal family and that wouldn't be one of my strongest areas. Excellent idea though glos, fair play!

[manckevin]

Questions correct: 4 / 10 :(

[GlosRFC]

Never mind Kevin. Over the course of the month everyone gets asked the same questions so it'll balance out. Tomorrow you'll get 10/10 and Piggy will get 4/10 :D

[TheOldhamWhisper]

I assume that not everyone gets the same questions then - Scottish poetry and Welsh history were never my strong points. And they were the 'easy peasy' questions?????

[bigcumba]

Jeez, I just got a tough set of questions....got 6 correct, but a couple of those were guesses!

[GlosRFC]

That's right Oldham, the questions are allocated on a random basis so everyone should see different ones each day. But over a month they will even out - one day you might get a host of questions you don't know, the next day you might be able to answer them all within a few seconds.

I accept that some of the question subjects might be a little tough at the moment as I've essentially requested every topic that references the UK or British Isles. I'll have a tweak tonight and see if I can narrow down some of those choices to make it a tad easier in the coming days.

The alternative is to just select what they call the Easy/Intermediate category but that will include a lot of "easy" American topics that won't be so easy for us. Hope that helps.

[bigcumba]

I'm happy with the toughness as it is... don't want to make it too easy, and as you said it should all even out over the month... for instance today I got 2 questions on obscure 60's music - I know a reasonable bit about that but these stumped me, plus a couple of tough history ones I had to guess. Keep it as it is for now :)
