    I suppose - and a couple of questions might well overlap.

    You'd do just as well by saving each quiz you take. Some of the same questions will come around again.

    Don't read the questions, look for keywords and deduce what they're looking for.

    And don't think very much. Most of the time, either you know the answer right away or you don't know it at all.

    I know what you mean but it can backfire. It did on me a few times with trick questions that needed to be read thoroughly. My problem with time doesn't have to do with the questions as much as the logistics of scrolling up on my computer. I have a larger screen on the new one so I have made it smaller which helps. But on my old computer I was able to scroll up with the scroll up button on the keyboard. I now have a smaller keyboard and when I try to scroll up with that button it keeps filling in the bullets for the answers on the quiz as it scrolls up which messes up my answers. I don't know how to stop it from doing that.

    Re: Fun Trivia contest

    Crap..I blame it on being distracted by the Yankee game on tv!.. and the major brain fart I had when I got up to get a pencil for the math question before I realized that that was freaken stupid cause it's multiple choice and I can figure out the answer by just looking at it. lol. Ill do better next time.

    7. I had a quiz in the "Wordwise" area. The Fun Trivia Editor told me that I could not have fill in the blank with 5 words. I should do what?


    What? I don't even know what this means.

    I hate when I get this BS question.
    9. Which was the first team in major league history to blow a seven game series after leading the series three games to none?

    Boy, what happened to all our trivia players? We're lucky if we get 10-12 people a game now.
