can the questions in future please be fair
having 4-5 questions based completely on twilight it's fairly obvious that females are going to have a lot higher chance of knowing the answers (well sometimes gays like @RyRy; have a chance).
That'd be like @SackRace; hosting an event and picking 4-5 questions on football
*Removed*
either way i'm happy
Edited by Jordan (Forum Super Moderator): Please do not be rude to other members
we all know you are secretly gay and watch these in your spare time so why are you complaining
but o/t yeah 4/5 questions on one movie is a bit much lol
sorry to get your hopes up @sex; but i'm not :(
since when did i do 5 questions on football
It was 4 questions and they were easy. At least we gave a chance for other people to win, and not always the same.
If the questions were about other things, it'd have been either Kyle, Scott or Alex, who have won many times..
He was using you as an example.Quote:

I like General Knowledge or surprises at least; at the introduction of the quiz it was said that the questions would be about a recent film, suggesting that all 20 would be - this wasn't the case.
@LiquidLuck.; that's an OPINION that is so biased it's unreal; no they weren't easy, they were easy to someone who likes Twilight or gives a damn about the books and films. Not everyone likes it so you can't say that it's set in stone that they were easy.
oh thats why i wouldnt do these things, the questions are always biased to 12-15 year olds, topics i couldnt give a **** about
Actually two questions were based on alcoholic drinks :rolleyes:.Quote:

Also they were pretty easy, yes. Everyone has seen the name of the writer, actors around.
couldnt tell you who wrote it, or the actors names nglQuote:

Far too many? Only 4. Knowledge of movies can be seen as GK as well. At least in this SNQ, it was tight and everyone could have won. I had like 4 people on the lead, and 4 others right behind. It made it exciting.Quote:

I really believe you need to step back and learn what facts and opinions are. You're just giving us all opinions when you can't prove it.Quote:

People got Monet pretty quickly though, they did pretype and it doesn't matter whether they pretyped correctly or not they could still do it.
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.
The way you're explaining yourself is like you were trying to plan it so they didn't win. If they win then they are clearly good at quiz's or the questions are repetitive. If people spent more time when it was their time doing the quiz thinking of unusual questions then it would be much better instead of quickly doing it on the day of the quiz.
So themed SNQ will just be boring? You'll all have to get used to it.Quote:

Lmao I did tell her!!!Quote:

They didn't got Monet pretty quickly. Sophie got it because she likes his work. Other people took ages to guess it and only 2 others got it right.Quote:

The answer to the questions were talked on multiple parts of the forum, talked about in the HxHD, and in idk people's lives because it's the big topic of the moment.
Like I said, at least anyone could have won. Different people guessed the Twilight questions, guys included.
depends on what the theme was but i'm pretty sure normal snq's should just be general knowledge without questions on one theme lolQuote:

Also yes, I've seen in SNQ's people just saying ''oh it's always this question'', so I tried to do something different with the Drinks topic for example. 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.Quote:

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.Quote:

2 on another same topic? The quotes one? Not really ''the same topic''.. Plus they weren't ''wasted'' either.Quote:

Check the answer?Quote:

Also how were they media based?
They also don't have questions based on Twilight each week and now we see why.Quote:

You were told the other day by management not to do it... I am not sure why Rosy approved them but you should have enough common sense to know that 4 questions just on twilight is not going to go down well.
I obviously am not checking the exact questions they are good about, so it'd be impossible or really difficult to make a quiz for them NOT to win, on purpose.. If I sounded like that, it wasn't my plan then.Quote:

So now you're talking about stuff that has nothing to do with the feedback thread? Alright..Quote:

@LiquidLuck.; media based: TV (2), Twilight (4), there could have been more - that's 6 out of 20 questions so for over 1/4 of the quiz you'd have to know some stuff. Also the questions didn't really relate to the theme; what does MTV stand for? That's not TV, that's acronyms.
---------- Post added 24-11-2012 at 08:11 PM ----------
It wasn't spread you did them together; I believe @Maria; means have a TV question for #3 then one for #14 or something.Quote:
