Is it me, or did these get a lot harder the last couple of days?
8/10 again, 724. At least I’m consistent!
Damn, I missed a day (Saturday, it seems) and sucked ass on Sunday. And wihle I only got 8/10 right today, I had the best time out of anyone on the daily high score list (32 seconds.)
::bump::
Since fessie’s proposed changing the question category, I thought it might be worthwhile to have this page front-and-sorta-center to make it easier for folks to talk about the different categories.
Yeah - I have to admit, I’m getting kind of bored with coming in 7th every single day!
The categories in their database are just about infinite, although you still get off-the-wall questions. My girlfriends chose the TV show “Good Times” the other day & 6 of my questions were about one specific episode.
But maybe it would be fun to pick something at random? No idea how to make it “fair” to all participants, but at least it would be more interesting & there’d be a different roster of highest scores each day.
I totally forgot about this when I switched computers. Now I’m way behind! I don’t mind switching the topic - I find there are so many oddly specific questions as it is, it won’t get too much worse.
Unless you pick sports. Then I’m screwed.
Are you saying that you don’t like getting obscure genre fiction questions? Hmm?
HMM?
Well, since they’ve all been obscure genre fiction questions on books I haven’t read, YES. Add in some ones that I have read, and we’ll talk. 
9/10, 781.
There were about 4 that I was not quite sure on, but I seemed to guess right!
Obscure genre fiction indeed. Only question I got wrong today (my first day of playing)
9/10, 811 in 89 seconds.
What on earth was that question about Stephanie, her grandmother, and bounty hunting about?
Okay - starting August 1, I’ll pick 3 words/phrases from the “Comments on Cecil’s Column” page & those will be the subjects of the quiz. If I’m up past midnight I’ll set it then, otherwise it’ll be around 8:30 a.m. EST.
Let’s see - for today there’s “hairballs”, “beheading” and “ethanol”.
That should make for an interesting quiz month!
Shit - I have two logons, so that I can play the daily game here & with my girlfriends. Well, stupid me, I keep forgetting to log out/back on before posting comments. So that’s why I don’t make sense. In this particular arena, anyway.
Wait holdup what?
You’re going to have a quiz about hairballs, beheadings and ethanol?
Lots of us are eccentric, but John bloody Carpenter would have trouble with that kind of quiz;)
What’s General Knowledge? Would that work?
I didn’t play that day but I would guess it was about a Janet Evanovich (sp?) book series about a female bounty hunter. The protagonist is named Stephanie Plum, I believe.
Yes, I admit it. I read trash.
Let me just take a moment to say: Damn you, furthur!!
I saved up my best performance just so I could knock you out of the number one spot. I have waited seven years to exact my revenge on you, Hal Briston, my lifelong nemesis.
What?? You mean I was beaten by a seven-year-old??
Well, if you take the post literally…
Today’s is just not cool.
Genre fiction I’ve not read, multiple Hockey questions, and foreign languages. I’m glad to have gotten 7/10 for the day.
