Next time, if there is one I suggest being more open to suggestions and admitting when you're wrong.

And you said ''you done two on another same topic'', which was the part I didn't get. I did spread them out. I had TV; music, art, drinks, history, geography, etc. It was spread.

Cool so you had variety in genre. But no one wants 4 questions on the same bloody topic which you so much enjoy, it's like me doing 4 questions on Resident evil or something - I Wouldn't do it because it's bound to cause something like it has already. UGH.

I was not told it, no. You and Maria were talking about it, and we came to the conclusion a SNQ all about twilight wouldn't do it, because then only a true fan would win it. So when I PM'ed my questions to Rosy I told her I had 4 about Twilight, and nothing having anything against it, I hosted it. Also 4 questions about Twilight is nothing and they were just bothered because they didn't win, like it happens in every single SNQ. -.-

Four questions about one specific thing such as "Twilight" where not everyone would have seen the movies or read the books would be silly to do. 1 or 2 questions about it is fine but no more.

Right, can you actually go back to most of your replies and learn what a ******* opinion is compared to a fact? For God sake, 4 Twilight questions isn't nothing it's definitely something as it's what we and many called BIASED. Only true fans would know about Twilight in general too really as it proved tonight, 4 questions were too much; if you're going to plan do it on different films from different genres and split it down further. I seriously can't see how you think everything you say is set in stone. So Rosy didn't say anything, could be various reasons surrounding that but use common sense, 4 out of 20 is 1/5, far too much unless you were doing 5 set themes.

But you wouldn't of had a single thought that it would end up like this? Hmm... And yes, it is something. 4 is too many, blah blah I've said it all before. We are just going around in circles, sigh. And actually no, for once I actually agree with people moaning about SnQ with these questions, because 4 on twilight is not fair. even with google.

First, I don't think I'm wrong as even Kyle quoted what I said in the beginning of the quiz. And I was open to suggestions and made only 4 questions about it, which Managers didn't find too much.

Like I said before, why not make it a rule then? Or ask the SNQ host to send the questions to GM as well? That way like 5 people could have an opinion about it.

Managers may of not found it too much, but players did. Managers aren't always right.

5 people shouldn't have to have an opinion about it, you should ensure it's fair and if you need to get someone to do that for you then why host? The quiz isn't ever going to be completely fair and go without a hitch but you should really know 4 questions on a film YOU enjoy isn't going to do it for those who don't I'd have rather had seen 4 about recent films or something than just one [film].

I don't think what I say is set in stone, as I didn't do an all themed SNQ about twilight. I got it down to 2 questions, and like I said, it gave everyone the opportunity to win. You know the way you say that spelling shouldn't count because we could just ''understand'' what someone meant? Well, in my point of view, this way, you don't had to be extremely knowledged about other facts (even if they pretty much were), and you could still have a chance to win. That's why I think themed SNQs will be fun and good to do, so other people can win, even if they aren't brilliant enough to know everything about GK.

If we really have to make it a rule because people can't get their head around on how to do a quiz then I give up.

Music Television is not Television? Oh, that's new. But whatever.

Why are you being sexist? I love football, I'd probably get a lot of questions right about that and it doesn't matter if I'm a girl. I'm not saying it was biased against boys, it's biased to those who haven't seen it, or read the books; maybe some don't even know what Twilight is. I think it's a pointless saga but that's my opinion and it isn't wrong. Ethos technique? Do I look like I really care if I'm doing that on an ONLINE FANSITE?

You didn't do a whole SNQ themed on Twilight, the fact you wanted to shows how unfair a host you could have been; it would have been much, much worse then. You got it down to 4 questions, don't change your actions half way through. It didn't give people the opportunity to win, if someone had say 3 points and were currently leaders in the SNQ and they were an avid Twilight fan it would seem biased they won would it not? They knew other things but it wouldn't give everyone the opportunity to win as it didn't tonight. By the 16th question, those who didn't really care about Twilight and didn't have any points; there was no point them playing unless they're really good guessers. Also, why bring up the past, can't back up your arguement anymore? I asked a question about the quote, the quote was run Forrest run yet it's called Forest Gump I was asking why it wouldn't be allowed. Like I said, if you didn't have any points by time the Twilight part came up and nor were you a fan you were doomed.

Also they were pretty easy, yes. Everyone has seen the name of the writer, actors around.

lol? are you stupid

if i've never took an interest in the book or the films, how the hell am i going to look up the author or each characters name IN the books or films...

again, the top 3 people from GK etc based questions were male, none of them won because of your 4 questions at the end lol...

I took time to get those questions, different sites, not only quiz-themes sites, looking for different drinks I could ask about etc. It wasn't done today.

---------- Post added 24-11-2012 at 07:59 PM ----------

At the end of the non twilight based questions, the person with most correct answers had 3. Everyone could still have won. That's what I said before the 4 last questions started when I told everyone the leaderboard.

No it won't, it'll ensure the few other people who have the same obsession or whatever as you have a chance of winning, and those who done well in the 16 GK questions don't.

LOL! I'm the one being sexiest?! Look at the first posts and you'll see what being sexist is. I also like football and I know guys (not gays) that enjoy Twilight. I'm not the one stereotyping. And you're the one continuing this debate that goes round and round, so I guess you do. Google ethos by the way, it's philosophy. And if you think this, then people could complain that questions about the US, are biased against people who aren't from the US, etc.

So according to you, all themed SNQs will have an unfair host? I asked if we could do a themed one tonight, and the answer I got was no, I took it. Also tell me when I changed my actions half way through, please? At the beginning of the quiz I said they were 4 about Twilight (check with Kyle if you want because he quoted it), so don't make up stuff now, please. Also funny thing how could I have changed 16 questions halfway through when I need to first get them checked by managers? And di I create them in what 5 seconds? I'd love to understand how you think I did that. Also it's my fault that many different people knew different questions so they didn't get more than 3 right each? Interesting.

About the bringing up the past thing, I didn't get it. And his name is Forrest, not Forest. That was why. And since in SNQ spelling counts, ''Run, Forrest, run'' is the correct answer.

Also let me know when you see someone with no points winning SNQ within the last 4 questions, even if everyone else has max 3.

Oh, so in themed SNQs if it's about idk chocolate bars (first thought in my head, don't take it literally) and you're allergic to chocolate, never ate one, you'll complain about that and make a feedback thread about it?

I think one of those Twilights could have passed for general knowledge. Anyway it was just too much on one topic which could ultimately mean someone on 0 points could have won which isn't really fair and many other topics could have been covered: video games, politics/current affairs, habbo(x), music etc. The whole point in this being a general knowledge quiz is that it means there is a chance for everyone to get points.

I'd also like to say that question about alcohol was a bit silly considering the target age group.

It's a TV channel, so it's about TV. ''What does BBC stand for?'' would also be TV..

probably because GMs dont want to follow staff to make sure they don't lack common sense and actually want them to do work instead of baby feeding them everything

First: I had two winners, one male, one female. So not sure how I'll do that.
Second: Insulting me makes you happy? Go ahead, whatever makes you sleep better, as I just don't care what someone who doesn't even know me thinks about me. It's the way I sleep better as well. Win-win.
Third:As I said before, I have a winner that did well in the 16 other questions so.. there you go.
Fourth: Everyone who doesn't win always complains so what for?

you fail to acknowledge that you're completely wrong and every other person posting in the thread is still trying to tell you that you are.

Yeah because googling and then entering the answer is just as fast as someone who watched every film and read the book and knows the stuff off by heart... oh wait?

I'd also like to say that question about alcohol was a bit silly considering the target age group.

First I'd like to say that the target age group is 13+ so I don't see how it was silly since you can start drinking around that age and at least most people I know have. I actually thought about making it about daquiri, but didn't know if you knew it. Here we drink a lot of cuba libre, so I thought you would too.

Second, that's exactly my point. Like I said before why do you need to know so much about GK to win SNQ? This way always the same people will win, which I don't think it's fair. But for example the Robert Pattinson question, most people knew it and answered quickly. Also I had no idea the leaderboard would get so tight and no one would have more than 3 questions right before the last topic. Hasn't happened to me before.

In that post you were sexist. Yes others have but I was quoting you at the time that's why I noticed yours.
I'd complain if there were a lot of US based questions as we are mainly a UK based site afterall.
No, if it was themed in general, regardless who hosts it, it will appear unfair; say the next 4 weeks were themes such as Disney, Twilight, Habbo, etc. that's not considering everyone hence a balance is needed.
No earlier you mentioned something about narrowing the themed questions down to 2, if you meant something else then sorry about that.
I didn't say you changed 16 questions did you? I meant by the 16th question it was down to 1 theme, you said yourself that ANYONE could win? Then you contradict yourself by saying tell me when someone has won in the last 4 questions, what?
You said about spelling when someone understands it, which I said weeks ago and not in this thread thus bringing up the past.
Also no, 'Run, Forrest, Run' wasn't the correct answer, it could have been run forrest run etc as you did say punctuation didn't matter.

Yes, because what, you're the only person in the world? Yeah, no, I wasn't talking about yourself only. My world luckily doesn't turn around your person.

Insulting idiots sometimes makes me happy, although that's more of a point than insult

Apparently not I rarely see SNQ complaint threads anymore? so..

You stated 'they were only bothered because they didn't win like every other week' or something along those lines, and as I made the complaint it's obvious i'm going to assume it's directed at me.

well evidently your idea of fun is not shared amongst any other member

in future stick to papoy and leave SNQ up to members of staff with some common sense.

Ethos again, so lovely. Even makes me want to comment on it more.
I am not even sure why I even bother since if you enter the HxHD after the SNQ, people will complain. It's Habbox..

Also I had no idea the leaderboard would get so tight and no one would have more than 3 questions right before the last topic. Hasn't happened to me before.

The legal drinking age in England is 18, I believe it's also 21 or 25 in the US and most times people have left by then; if you want to discuss alcohol why not go on the Spanish Hotel as their legal age is 14 if I remember correctly. The drink one could have been better; it didn't have to be alcoholic really, nor did 4 questions have to be about Twilight and such.

---------- Post added 24-11-2012 at 08:53 PM ----------

evidently not as you asked 2 questions regarding alcohol, I don't drink and know very little on the subject yet I never chose to complain about that did I?

don't be stupid, I know it's hard, but try.

Is Ethos the only way for you to get your opinion out? Insulting the person you don't agree with instead of the actions you don't agree with? Doesn't do it to be honest.
You have your opinion, I have mine. You think I'm wrong, I think you're just bothered you didn't win. Alex and Pyroka gave the Robert Pattinson answer faster than who had seen the movie, so there goes your theorie.

You blame others but not yourself, you cannot admit that you could be wrong thus I have no time for you. If you can't take feedback don't reply? Maybe if you listened to some of the stuff said you'd understand what we were getting at.

They probably gave it quick as @Alex3213; can type about 160 wpm? @RyRy; well it's Ryan so God knows how he got that quick though.
In all fairness I'd have thought the answer was Taylor Lautner or whatever it is.

No, just seems you don't understand anything based on the fact you've done nothing but gone in circles throughout this thread, so instead of repeating those facts, *Removed*

Yes, they got one question of 4... lol?

Yes they might start drinking around 13+ but they're unlikely to know how to mix a cocktail or what colour that drink was.

Also general knowledge is what it says on the tin, general knowledge. It allows for questions to be provided which a variety of people may know, essentially creating a level playing field. The reason the same people win for the most part is probably to do with the fact no one actually knows the answer so they google it essentially turning SNQ into "who's got the fastest internet" with that cocktail question of yours being an example.

no matter the host or the questions you guys will always find something to moan about it's so annoying
fact is none of you complain during the quiz until the end when u haven't won
if u really want her to improve tell her why instead of just telling her SHE'S **** or a crap host, stop acting like 10 years olds

not really, if the quiz is based on GK i don't recall seeing a thread regarding it lately?

it's when people go with stupid crap like this people complain, i don't really care if i win or lose as I have vip until like end of next year but i'd prefer to see fair questions rather than some crap like this again.

because thats what the thread attempted to do for 6 pages and she failed to accept it, so the only solution is to say it how it is.

It was established that there would be a few questions surrounding the release of the new twilight movie at the start of the quiz and the majority seemed content with that. There was a little confusion on a question about casablanca with people asking why a question was asked on such an archaic movie when it was supposedly established that the questions would be to do with a recent movie but people got over that and got on with the quiz.

Since this is a feedback thread I'll be constructive. Nobody really deserves to have an event they've taken time to organise and host picked apart quite so ruthlessly.

Personally, I didn't understand the question on forrest gump as we were told "pronunciation doesnt matter" which I took to mean spelling/grammar, so was a little confused when told that 'run forest run' wasn't sufficient but meh, English isn't her first language so I'll just assume that she meant something else by pronunciation.

The cuba libre question was one that clearly nobody knew and, considering past questions on cocktails haven't gone down well either, should be something that you should avoid in future. The absinthe question was fair though... most people guess colour questions before reading anyway.

General layout wasn't great :(. As previously stated, telling people the theme of the next question isn't something that works well in SNQ because it just causes a flood of pretyped answers that, if wrong, mean that the user has to scroll up and actually read the question before they can answer again and, if correct, means some people that may not deserve the point would get it over those that should have.

Having topics is good, just don't tell people about their specifics, simply allow them to fall under the 'general knowledge' umbrella, then nobody can complain. Typically there have been a mixture of GK and habbo(x) questions in the SNQ so I was quite shocked to find that you'd ditched the habbo(x) category completely too. Four questions on one topic isn't too many and, if spread out, you could have gotten away with them being unrelated. One about an actor that virtually everyone has heard of, one about an author that very many will at least know of and two specifically about the specific characters - which, IMO, is acceptable.

In future spread the topics out, include more habbo and steer clear of the drink.

If anybody feels they have been wronged or thinks that they should have won then you're more than welcome to a month of VIP from my account.

Ah that explains it I thought she meant punctuation, due to the spelling be something like 'poncuation' so yeah. I agree there should be Habbo(x) questions as if not why do it on Habbo for Habbox?

Do you people trying to complain actually know what the words you're using mean? It's not "biased" or "unfair" to have questions on a certain theme just because not everyone will know the answers - the entire point of quizzes is that not everyone knows all the answers. You're essentially complaining that you didn't have a response for some of the questions, which is just as stupid in this case as it would be if there were 4 totally random questions that weren't topics you know about.

It might be bad planning to have 1/5 questions based on one very small theme but it is not biased or unfair. Suck it up.

Actually, a few people did think all the questions were Twilight based, if you were paying attention you'd have seen @RyRy; say I thought this was a film quiz and me agreeing with him.
No, they weren't pretty easy, I can't tell you who wrote it, I can't tell you who imprinted something on a daughter; they were pretty easy to YOU and a couple of others.

firstly you complain the other questions are too easy, then you complain the twilight ones are too hard? shouldn't it be that way? a mix easy, a mix hard. so what if people THOUGHT the questions were going to be all twilight based. it was clear from the quiz it wasn't and i did see her say it would only be 4, not seeing the problem here?

you're telling her she doesn't know the difference between fact and opinion yet say it was exciting for no-one then say that in YOUR opinion it's exciting for no-one? think you're the one who doesn't understand fact and opinion. if not everyone could win, doesn't that make it more exciting? a quiz isn't supposed to be a quiz where only 2 or 3 same people are in the running to win...

4 QUESTIONS. CRIME OF THE CENTURY. i'd understand if it was half, all this over 4/20 questions? you guys are ridiculous. no need to be so patronizing, if it was harry potter (something everyone knows), would there be complaints? nope. so why is there? im always seeing complains about liquidluck but the fact of the matter is she does this for you guys, she doesn't think "hey i'll do twilight cause everyone hates twilight" but nah, can't do right for wrong.

LOLOL could you grasp at straws anymore?! completely ridiculous, she made the questions and there apparently wasn't any problem with FOUR. QUESTIONS. on twilight. no matter what she did her questions on, it wouldn't be good enough for you guys. if she went and did the questions without being approved you'd complain at that but even though they were approved it's still not good enough? your argument is weak.

I took time to get those questions, different sites, not only quiz-themes sites, looking for different drinks I could ask about etc. It wasn't done today.

everyone had a chance to win. the twilight people had a 4/20 chance of winning everyone else had the 16 other questions too. you did fine, don't let them bring you down.

the one she checked was the spelling right? the stephenie meyer one? it's because no-one got the correct spelling so she rechecked just incase. if she didn't check, again, you guys would complain. complain themed is boring then complain she didn't stick to mostly habbo(x) questions, wouldn't that be boring too? there are only so much habbox questions you can ask..

err but other snqs ive had to use google for pretty much 18/20 questions or so so what's the big deal using google for 4?

she made sure it was fair by only having 4 questions and not anymore. again, if i did it on harry potter - something i enjoy, then there would most likely be no problems.
