Re: ***New*** Darth's Fun Trivia game link

OK, new questions are out. They are a basketball mix although I had it set for exclusively Pistons questions today. Not sure what happened. If this catches on, we'll work it all out.

Anyhow, I only got 3 of 10 right.


The top 10 players from yesterday (Sunday)are listed, but there are places to check cumulative scores or see players outside the top 10.

Didn't realize there was timer on it. ..Got distracted by something on the tube before I finished it...

I guessed on the Top of the World and Virginia question and got the former right and the latter wrong.

Re: ***New*** Darth's Fun Trivia game link

Oh Brother. A dismal first performance for me. That's okay. I'm not good at games, but I love them. Hey I got the Cornbread one somewhere out of the basketball immersion of the last three years! Is it just straight scoring? Any partial credit for not guessing and leaving the question alone? What about the relation of time to correct answere. Is it worth it to try to google real quick and get the answer? LOL.

Oh My God, I'm strategizing to optimize my chances at a win. By God Darth you've been a bad influence over me in the past year. No question about it. LMAO.

Re: ***New*** Darth's Fun Trivia game link

Nice game Darth. I kinda answered the ones that I automatically knew.

The NCAA question threw me for a loop. Keep them coming DT, I like it.

There are a total of 1000 points on ten questions. Each question is worth 100 points each. Every second you take subtracts 1 point.

Example: It takes 18 seconds for you to answer question one correctly...you get a score of 86 on that question.

so if you get 8 right total on the quiz that day, it's 8 x 100 =800. But it took you 90 seconds to answer them all. so 800-90 = a score of of 710.

In other words, you gotta balance accuracy with speed.

Hope that helps.

It's usually too time consuming to search for answers (and not nearly as fun).
