Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!! - Page 64

I haven't had any repeated quizes either, perhaps the odd question repeated that's all.

There were many more repeated questions when we had the set topics, before it had to be changed because of Cheatingate.

I worked out tonight that playing the quiz, along with the Global Trivia one, and the regional quiz, that I attempt to answer 300 questions a day, and I've realised I still don't know anything about baseball, what order the states were ceded to the Union, or who was the third President of the US of A.

Well Ive learned by doing the quiz each day does me no damned good at all as I still cant get out of the 20s lmao !!!!!

shillelagh · 19-12-2006, 02:40

i get the repeats as well - get them wrong as well!!! lol

I seem to get many more repeat questions over in a couple of the Global Challenges. Must admit, playing the Global Challenge really helps with Accyweb. Just having 10 questions to answer after having the 15 in the 15 different daily quizzes makes it alot quicker at least.

There seemed to be alot more repeat quizzes in the last couple months contests though. Early on this month had a couple of quizzes that had answered before in Global Trivia general so those 2 went pretty quick.

I think you are again doing swell with the quiz Mel. Do apologize for the baseball and other petty Americana related questions. Not quite even with the Cricket and "Football" questions I seem to get!

My favoutite subjects would be art and literature. There is no way I even attempt the literature subject on the Global Challenge though.

Shakespeare, Dickens, Proust, Twain, Hardy?

No, it's all sci-fi and comic books.

Not what I'd class in my book as being classic literature.

Dag, how bout those yanks taking over the Accyweb Trivia message board. I say ban all of them who aren't male and over the age of 45!

Rindy, hard to see we're related with interests like that. I'm about artistic (in the painting, drawing, molding sense of the word) as a bull elephant. However, as far as landscaping there is a bit of a creative streak in me head.

Aw we do have some similar interests like history, England, lager, "the Damascus Road experience", reading, Accyweb, etc. so that's all good!

We need more Aussie trivia questions! The sports questions are the ones I trip up on, I barely know about Aussie sports, so not likely to know anything about UK and USA sports....

garinda · 30-12-2006, 15:13

Well it looks like my monthly champion's hat is heading off across the Atlantic.

Well done LYY.

(Time for another set of UK specific questions me thinks, looking at how well those living over seas have done.

)

Well, i finally managed to play at last (first time in nearly 3 weeks). Didn't do any better though, i'll put it down to being tired.

Thanks Mel for another well done tournament! Still working on my acceptance speech and look forward to building up my pony herd to the size of brother Rindy!

Would of been neat to be a double winner. What whinge did I produce which put me in the running?

Started next trivia in great spirits until I saw I had accidentally put Cinnyose in first place. Waiting to play LYY to make sure no shenanigans!
