BYC TRIVIA CONTEST-- 3/28/10 at 8:00 pm EST

DOH.. good point about search! It is only working on the first 150,000 topics, so none of the new stuff is indexed yet.

We unfortunately already had this contest planned when search up and died on us, so we're moving forward anyway. Fortunately everyone is on the same playing field, so it may take longer to find stuff... but it will for everyone!

Regarding the speed of the game: We're tying to make sure there are at least 3 minutes between each question. Seems like a lot, but most are answered in a few seconds anyway.

Allowing 3 minutes helps those on dialup get their bearings before the next question is asked.

Of course, with 20 questions at 3 mins each, that's about an hour of game time!

Also, if you use the Google search box on the forum, you will be able to find things just as fast!

If we get a question wrong, but then rethink it and know we're right do we edit the first answer or do a different reply?

 

[pips&peeps]

Will all the questions be on the first post?

 

[Nifty-Chicken]

Post a new post... but remember, by that time the question may have been answered and you don't want to miss out / fall behind on the next question.

 

[FF]

where do we post the answer

Just post the answer in a post in this thread and number it. Also, all of
the questions will be on my first post in this thread and will be updated every three minutes.......5 MINUTES UNTIL WE START!
