i do not know much about movies or sport (although i guessed correctly the sports question because it was the only team i could vaguely remember).
the answer to the ice cream one stumped me because the correct answer i do not think tastes like an unpaved road.

whatever. i never tasted the flavor of the answer that i chose, but i imagined it may taste raw and metallic like an unpaved road but i was wrong)

I have been told by MotherKnowsBest that if the quiz grows in size that she may alter the content.

If it takes off then she will be willing to alter the subjects from which the questions are randomly selected. So if your AS special interest is 1920s horse racing then you could request the inclusion of this topic in a future set of questions.

B9, I would say that timed questions get on my nerves also. I say that while shallow thought and simple rote learning is all about rapid recall like a trained monkey. The deeper types of thought and learning are all about multiple views of the same subject. It also considers the idea of taking a new view of a topic, something which can take a lifetime. So timed quizes do not always favour the deep thinker.

I'm back, with lots of stitches, so don't make me laugh, it hurts too much.

I've altered the subjects for the next few days. Underneath the 'Play Today's Game' bit is a schedule of up coming categories.

Hey, how do I play this with you guys? Sorry for being thick.

Never mind, it was fairly simple after all.

grrrr. i did not know why the person named his dog buddy.

i did not get the okapi's question because i will say why tomorrow when the quiz is closed.

it is good that it is timed i realize now, because if it was not, people would google the answers and get 10/10 and claim victory with that "wink" emoticon.

Trivia bump!

As I expected, I failed absolutely miserably in the "celebrities" category.
