In speaking to jimnyc in IM, I asked if he would consider putting in a spot
for games the DP community might like to use.

My thought is a few Trivia Games. There are some very bright folks here
and it may be interesting to see outcomes.

So I'll try to post a poll here.

And maybe of we can't find any trivia software that builds into the site, maybe something else, I can take a peek around...

It was difficult to choose. I would pick 3. General, history and political. The Vets on here would probably kick our butts in the military category.

The one site I sent to Jim has several categories. yet can be tailor made.

I love games, and we have done trivia in a local restaurant for quite a while. I'm curious how you play trivia on line without some folks looking up stuff.

The first one I sent Jim is timed. It is very hard to look up answers and respond quickly
enough to come out on top.

Well, you know I ain't looking up jack. :laugh: I do agree are times I feel like asking a question just for fun, but I know people got google right there.

I personally don't believe in cheating at games. No matter what, you don't win if you cheat. You're just fooling yourself.

Just curious, but why do we need software to play trivia?

It should be as simple as putting in a link, then make it a permanent sticky.

Sounds like too much work to me. We could just talk about it.

I put mine in as a link, stickied it, and we had discussion in the thread...much like this poll.
