IW Trivia contest questions

Bungleau · 06-17-2006, 10:45 PM

The IW Trivia contest keeps rolling along, and there's still time for you to get involved! Laugh at the easy questions... cry at the hard ones... scratch your head trying to figure out how milking goats can be a hobby... it's lots of fun! Plus, any side effects wear off the next day!

Current trivia topic is a mixed bag... a little of everything. Tomorrow night, it will be time for another topic... one of these:

General Knowledge Trivia: Easy/Intermediate
General Knowledge Trivia: Intermediate
General Knowledge Trivia: Intermediate/Difficult
Music Trivia Mix
History & Geography
Mixed Sports Trivia
Bible Trivia
Movie Trivia
Science & Technology
Hobbies
Famous People
The 1980s
The 1970s
Everything Baseball: Intermediate
Everything Baseball: True Fans Only
Australian Trivia: Easy - Intermediate
Australian Trivia: Intermediate - Hard
United Kingdom Trivia: Easy - Intermediate
United Kingdom Trivia: Intermediate - Hard

But what's it going to be? I'm thinking UK Trivia... I don't think we've done that. Got a better idea? We'll give it a shot! And if you pick the chosen topic, you'll get a free lifetime membership to Funtrivia, the site that hosts the contest!

Note that membership is still free anyway, so you're not really winning anything. But you can brag just the same...

If you're not signed up, go to the IW Trivia contest and fill out the form. No charge, no blood, no foul... it's all fun!

UK trivia is fine with me, although I think the easy-intermediate would be best

. Also I remember Famous People being okay and we've only done that a bit, also even though we've done it a lot, history and geography always goes down well.

Bungleau · 06-19-2006, 12:54 AM

The UK it is... to my chagrin

mixed bag for new month?

Bungleau · 07-31-2006, 03:35 PM

Sure... I'll change it tonight.

Please dont do anything baseball....

It alienates everyone who isn't American....I bet I cant even name 5 baseball teams, and I'm a huge sports fan. It's just not popular over here, and the only time it's on TV is 4am on Channel 5.

Even though I'm from the UK, I can handle American knowledge etc, but just not baseball!!!

Bungleau · 09-05-2006, 09:12 AM

It's not necessarily friendly to Americans, either...

One of the things we've been doing is to change the category every few days. In fact, we're due for one tonight.

That way, we don't spend too much time on any one category, and if there is one that sucks, it will be gone soon enough.

But don't worry... your thoughts are noted. If we ever get baseball up there again, it will be just for a day or two... nothing really long.

Lavindathar · 09-05-2006, 09:25 AM

Cheers Bungleau, it's just I'd get like 3/10 right, and they'd just be guesses.

It would be like you answering questions on our 3rd Division football, you'd have no clue!

So I say scrap baseball, just as it rules out us in the UK, Austrailia and just about everywhere else!!

Bungleau · 09-05-2006, 10:27 AM

Well, turnabout is fair play, you know... two categories are UK trivia, and two others are Aussie trivia. Everyone gets their turn in the barrel, so to speak.
