We get different questions because when we all had the same, some people joined up using two user names, played once...slowly, and played again...quickly, once they knew all the day's answers.
There used to be about thirty playing then, so no one realised for a while.
We could all have the same questions now.
How about it, Miss AW Quiz Mistress?

I didn't get either W of Orange or Aztec rulers -what is going on here -would much prefer us all to have the same questions- I'm sure non of us would cheat...

We wouldn't, plus we can't.
As we all know who each other is.
There are no longer dodgy usernames.
Names there have to have some connection to your AW username.
If the Quiz Mistress doesn't see this, I'm going to ask her if she'll change it, so we all get the same questions.
Much more fun, and probably fairer.

It'd be good to have the same questions and discuss which we thought were stinkers and so on....Glad at not getting the Aztecs, always get confused with all these old S. American cultures and their unpronouncable rulers.

I loathe American questions about baseball and basket ball teams -haven't got a clue...speed is another problem for me, some like Rindy and Tealeaf are just too fast -I can't read the questions in time....
Let's push for one quiz for all would be much fairer in the end...

I've sent a message the moderator who runs the quiz.
Asking if we could please all get the same questions, as there are no people playing we don't know from AW, and perhaps have some new catagories thrown in too.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
Good , well done for taking the initiative-lets hope they can sort it soon.
Should sort the wheat from the chaff so to speak -expect i'll drop way back as your getting the Hard quiz sometimes will no longer happen...but it's good fun in any case.

Major moan, the American questions.
But the host site is based there, and the majority of quizes are submitted by Americans.
Only consolation, it's the same frustration for all of us, as we currently have no players from the U.S. Though we used to have.
There are quizes on the host site on Cubism, the Bloomsbury set, punk, and C20th British fashion, amongst other things, submitted by one English fanny.
So just hope they don't come up.

Re: Accywebbers Daily Trivia quiz Comp!!!
Actually I struggle most with the UK ones as they are recent and I'm not there to know about pop music and TV in the uk...more on politics would be good too and literature.

Quiz Mistress is going to post here.
If/when quiz can change, so we all get same questions.

It's when they're sport or pop questions associated with Texas State University, that you really have to worry.
Nice to have you join us. x
