Not as an everyday thing, but as a tool that on occasion one would be able to post. We could hopefully limit the quiz to the subject of the particular forum. There are quite a few variables that can be enabled/disabled to fit in with our board and what we want out of it. Feedback of course...

First quiz question for you:

Are you a leftie?

That wasn't very sneaky. :slap: But to answer your question: Of course not.

It was a trick question, you dirty bastard, I used psychology! I figured YOU would think it was a trick, think about it, say yes, then think some more, figure it was a trick, and then answer no. That's how you lefties think :poke:

What's your thoughts on utilizing this for the board? Some quizzes here and there on history, politics (current and past), sports or really anything. I thought being saved for users was cool too, like a badge of honor. And of course we would keep it clean, friendly and fun.

Lefties ARE tricky, no question. Especially the imaginary ones. :)

It might be a fun thing... until we have 300 that say the same thing. I don't recall seeing quizzes on any forums so I'm not sure what they would look like. :dunno:

I wouldn't want it to get out of hand, nor be something to ask the same thing over and over and over. We may even be able to limit it to staff only creating the quizzes but anyone can partake. Or maybe certain levels only, or usergroups, can create them.

Go to this page and scroll to the bottom of the features list, there are pictures you can click on to see the whole thing, examples of course.

Not me, I would rather aspire to be "Pepe Le Pew", and be the offensive one!

I think it'd be interesting.

There are a bunch of silly ones flying around FB right now that would be annoying.

However... if it's in the title it would be easy to avoid the annoying ones.

I predict a sudden influx of new members. Or old members coming back...



Or maybe not...

Abbey. What on Earth do you mean?:laugh: As a Jeopardy follower of 30 years, and applicant for qualification 4 times (but never picked). That sounds like the PERFECT CHALLENGE. :clap:

Jeopardy! isn't as easy as it looks. My dad was on the show, didn't fare so well. He was no slouch in the smarts department, well read, knew his trivia and yet when it was all over, all he could say was...

hjmick. I know it's not as easy as it looks. Each time I have taken the Online Tests. They blew me away with topics I never knew existed.

My best score has always been less than 40%. And I can hardly remember what most of those questions were.

But, while watching it each night. I always seem to do rather well. Which keeps me feeling pretty good, and not threatened by ALZHEIMERS striking anytime soon. I HOPE:laugh:

Only left-handed people are in their right mind.

No quiz on that page, just a long list of features, and then example pictures of the back and front end at the bottom. :)
