Sports would mean even more college questions, which are pure guesswork unless you've seen it before.
Music might be ok, maybe give the sport genral a go and if too yank change back. Here's a sport for kids one, don't have to do it, but if anyone can't get 10/10, they should be ashamed: :) https://www.funtrivia.com/playquiz/quiz ... 71828.html

This Quiz is a monster.

https://www.funtrivia.com/private/main.cfm?tid=8576

It is on a Sunderland message board, don’t ask me how ol’Pet came across it.

The categories are insanely hard and when I used to play it regularly a few years ago I rarely finished in t’ top ten.
Alex Young, Howard Kendall, Andy King, Timmy Cahill, Dixie Dean and Mike Parry.....we'll never see the likes of them again.

Just as a ponderer, next month, I'm going to collate stats on times and stuff.

Sub is the multiple winner. Many 10s in the 20secs, but also many longer in the 50secs or so.

Whereas myself, mostly 10s in the 20 or 30secs, but so many 9s in there as well. Which is why I don't win and so many bastard US sports.

Regardless of time, a 10/10 is better. however slow, so let's see how that flows in March.

And no inference of shenanigans, Sub, just a stathead thing. :)

No worries, Carlos.
Personally, I think the scoring is rather flawed. Someone who gets 10 in 99 seconds beats someone who gets 9 in 20 seconds – that isn't right.
I think once you go above 100 seconds, your points drop off (or maybe 80 seconds?).

Yeah after so much it drops down. Like you can't remember what number, but 80 sounds familiar. Anyway, it, just a bit of fun.;)

Just put a time limit of 60 seconds on Carlos

You can either go hell for leather or try to 'plot' your way to a 6 out of 10. :wink:

Subbers will still win anyway :lol:

Ha and yeah I wish we could. Maybe in the admin I've not read. :). Congrats, sub again. Getting my eye in and playing everyday. Less US sport shite and one Oz and would have been better.

No changes this month, but some more stats if can be bothered after a few days.
