OK, so this is for the people who have interested in being part of the daily quiz game that Seren kindly posted up. I have now signed up and organised for us to have a private quiz game, ive set it up but we just need to sort a few things out.

Every day the questions change and there are quite a few different subjects, but I fear that a lot of them will be 'americanised' so we need to choose the subjects carefully and also what day the change.

So do we have them change every day, every other day or specific days? So here are the different topics:- (Bear with me i have to write these all out)

Animals
Celebrities: Easier
Celebrities: More Difficult
General Knowledge 1: Very Easy
General Knowledge 2: Easy
General Knowledge 3: Average
General Knowledge 4: Harder
General Knowledge 5: Difficult
General Knowledge 6: Very Difficult
Geography 1: Easier
Geography 2: Intermediate
Geography 3: Difficult
History 1: Easier
History 2: Intermediate
History 3: Difficult
Hobies
Literature 1: Easier
Literature 2: More difficult
Movies 1: Easier
Movies 2: Intermediate
Movies 3: Difficult
Music 1: Easier
Music 2: Intermediate
Music 3: Difficult
People 1: Easier
People 2: More Difficult
Religion 1: Easier
Religion 2: More Difficult
Religion: Bible Trivia
Science & Nature 1: Easier
Science & Nature 2: Intermediate
Science & Nature 3: Difficult
Sports: Baseball: Easy
Sports: Baseball: Difficult
Sports: General: Easy
Sports: General: Intermediate
World: Australia
World: UK
World: Trivia: Easy
World: Trivia: More Difficult
World: Canada
World: Europe

OK, all done. We just need to sort out what we want to do with topics etc. Basically everyone needs to open an account via http://my.funtrivia.com/private/newplayer.cfm?tid=77709. Then you can log into the tournament via http://my.funtrivia.com/private/main.cfm?tid=77709. Pretty simple. I dont know how many questions there is per day but  doubt there'll be many, probably 3 or 4 minutes a day. It looks pretty good as you can view stats on our private quiz etc and once we get sorted we could maybe enter a team into the team tournament!

The quiz is closed at the moment, once we get a few numbers and we get things sorted I'll open it up straight away and get going.

Any questions just ask and i'll try and find out for you

Shamardal, I'm not quite sure what you are talking about but if it is some sort of quiz league then I'm in!

Basically we set what days we want the questions and what questions we want. So it could be like

Monday: Animals - Easy
Tuesday: World UK
Wednesday: None
Thursday: Geography - Difficult

And we all log onto the site daily to answer the questions and we see who has the highest score daily / weekly / monthly whatever. Im not 100% sure myself but from what ive read on the site thats how it works. I guess it will be trial and error for most part

Morning all,

hope everything is fine with everyone


I may be being stupid here. I have registered and created my account and logged into the forum quiz no problem, but when I click on play todays quiz (in the hope of setting a vey low benchmark hehehe) it just comes up with an error. Is anyone else getting the same??? If not I am not gonna do much good at the quiz if I can't even open it!

I'm signed up.
Can't beat a good quiz. How does it work? Will there be blatant internet cheating involved?

I will be in team brain power.

Win, lose or draw I would much rather answer to the best of my knowledge than look things up. I do like a good quiz
