This should be fun, and hard. The first one is easy so you all can test the waters, but scores are based on time and corrct answers, and there is one a day. I'm hoping this catches on. Super easy to sign up too.

That´s a wonderful idea, Jack! I´m already playing fun trivia with members from another board. Yes, these quizzes can be fun, especially if they veer off target. For example, the history quiz is 40 % questions about musicals, literature is about 30 % Stephen King questions.

And if you look up questions you get a penalty, because the faster you finish the quiz, the more points you get.

edit:
Oh no! I get:

"Not yet!

You have already played today! Try again tomorrow!"

So I can´t be a part of different quizzes? Well, that %&§/§s.

Ha, I tricked that site and can now play, too. Let´s hope the Barbelith contest will be as longlived as the other one I´ve been playing the last past months.

It took Pacific State seventy-three inches to finish the quiz? How many parsecs would it take to finish the Kessel run? Answers in liters please.

I somehow didn't get that you're supposed to go fast, even though you say right there in your opening post. Still, 41 seconds? That was super easy but I don't know if I could do it anywhere near that fast.

So, it tomorrow general knowledge/very difficult?

I did not click on fucking Superman. come on.

...shit.

Phex: Dorset Doom

00:05 / 10.02.08

Bottom of the league!?! Bottom!?! This quiz is clearly broken, since there are no questions on Scarlett Johannsen and anime. However, with Effort and Guts I shall train myself to trivia perfection!

Essential Dazzler

00:22 / 10.02.08

I feel moved to mention that 4 of my answers were shot in the dark guesses.

Not to question the King of Barbelith's intentions, if it is him, but if I was after board members' personal details, with the intent of indulging in a spot of ontological terrorism, I think I'd go about it in pretty much exactly the same way.

(With apologies, Dangerfield, if this seems alarmist. But you are asking quite a lot, in terms of personal info. Are you The Knowledge?)

Essential Dazzler

00:36 / 10.02.08

Bloody Hell, Feverfew.

You are Johnny 5 and I claim my £5

00:42 / 10.02.08

Not that I'm paranoid, of course. Other people seem to say that about me quite a lot, but then again, I suppose they would do. Let's face it, what else are they being paid for?

Anyway, it isn't true.

Jack Fear

15:26 / 10.02.08

So when does it start getting difficult?

I hate Jack Fear.

You're gonna hate me a lot more before this is all over, kid.

Jack Denfeld

23:48 / 10.02.08

i think it gets diffy soon. also just put in a fake emailz if you are paranoid, i dont think you even have to confirm just to play.

Dammit I cheated and was still rubbish, what kind of 'what tuna does Charlie want to be' type quiz is this?

You certainly don't get these sorts of questions down the Old House at Home

It's difficult to see how this game could be any more troubling. But there's a way, apparently.

Seven out of ten, but I wish I'd joined the army instead.

Actually, to hell with it, I wish I was a fireperson.

Essential Dazzler

01:28 / 11.02.08

Well, I beat Iamus. That's enough for me.

sTe

01:28 / 11.02.08

Well I always wanted to be

A lumberj.. no I can't, it's not the time or the place, a tree surgeon maybe. Anyway I liked this quiz on my first effort. I didn't realise there was a time factor and probably should have read what folks were saying before diving in, also I think twas questions which were a little Americanised but I can forgive that, I shall learn, I shall do better, next time...

Fungus of Consciousness

02:14 / 11.02.08

I'm going to start making excuses for my mediocre start. Too many "American" questions. There, I said it!

It's a sprint not a marathon eh?

Fungus of Consciousness

02:58 / 11.02.08

Ehh. I mean a marathon not a sprint. I'm on fire!

iamus

03:54 / 11.02.08

Well, I beat Iamus. That's enough for me.

I took a drubbing in that last one.

It's a Marathon, not a Snickers!.... or something....

I didn't realise there was a time factor

If it's any consolation, you're not alone.

History and of course there was not one but three musical questions. Also a question about a latin word, primary colours and australian animals. This quiz rocks!
