Cast your vote for upcoming topics... remember that we always start with Mixed Bag for the new month, and run each category for five days.

I'm looking for ones you'd like, and ones you hate.

Okay, I screwed up the second question. It was supposed to offer multiple choices as well

However, it looks like baseball is losing... [img]graemlins/nono.gif[/img]

I did History on another quiz, and it's very much more humanities than history. No "What year was the Battle of Bosworth" questions, but who knows, might have just been a bad question choice (for five days)

The Battle of Bosworth was around the 1480's I think
Dare I ask what humanities are?

The Battle of Bosworth Field was on August 22, 1485.

As far as the trivia site goes, it is questions about literature, music, and opera.

I must say that i really don't like things such as Aussie trivia, most questions only make sense if you're actually from Australia. I mean how the hell is the average European supposed to know how this or that piece of meat is called on Aussie bbq's?

Get rid of crap like that. Which by the way also goes for all other trivia regarding specific countries. A lot of questions involve slang too, which is quite impossible to know for non natives of said countries.

I agree with johnny. Please get rid of baseball as well, unless you wish to alienate non-American users.

Well if you get rid of baseball, how about throwing out cricket, rugby, Aussie rules football, cycling and soccer as well so you don't alienate the American users.

And just so you stay totally politically correct, let's dump the questions on religion as well.

There are no seperate categories for any of those sports, so your point is moot.
