I'll gladly accept. Thanks. I'm not too proud to accept charity.

Nos or Soeur not to be a pain in the ass although this will make me sound like one are the "to date" scores posted in the Daily tally thread at 2:30am Mon Mar 5 the final for all of Sunday up to including question 500?

I had been keeping track of my own since you posted an update Sunday afternoon in this thread at 2:16 pm.

At that time I had 66 points. For the remainder of Sunday including live chat and up to question 500 in this thread on the board you gave me 43 (board questions) 4(chat) which should total 113.

I also checked JuJu's, Glass and Spam from that time on Sunday afternoon and then went through the thread and counted points awarded for each (I know I should get a life) and had a different tally for each of them from the one posted as final. I got JuJu with a final of 71, Glass with 33 and Spam with 93. Those include last nite's chat and up to question 500.

Above should read I had been keeping track of my own since you posted an update Sunday afternoon in this thread at 12:31pm Sunday afternoon which matched the update in the tally thread at 1:45 pm Sunday afternoon.

Like I said earlier, this whole game is fun but it's apparrant that only those who can be here during the day almost everyday with nothing else better to do will gain the highest scores. It's more of a challenge of time than anything else.

I think the game should take place in pre-designated time blocks throughout the day.

Anyone that jumps from 17 to 84 in less than two days while living here and then complains when I get 1 point should really be the focus of a time/rule change.

It's times like now when a major time/rule change should be looked into. In other words, I am here right now with answers and nobody is here with questions.

i just like to play for fun anyway. it's a good test of my abilities to find informaiton quickly on the web! :) since my time here only comes in spurts, i have no chance of winning anything, but that's okay.

if this was only played during designated times, then i would probably miss out completely because there's no guarantee i'd be able to get online during those times.

anyway, let me reiterate that this is really a lot of fun. it must be a HECK of a lot of work to manage and i appreciate the effort! :)

BWAAHAhahahhahahha (sorry)

Nos & Sis.... having fun yet??

I'll scan that mystery (and a few more) and we'll start mysteries in the next day or so.

OH yeah. I need a helper for the mysteries. Y'all know my time frame is hosed.

I'm good from 8:00 AM to 11 AM (board) - and sometimes in the afternoons. Evenings till 11 board time.

Think I need a board time helper.

Nos and Sis need not apply! Time they played.

I rarely get to play (so I don't expect to win), but have a great time when I do. Thanks for all your hard work Soeur & Nos.

I can try to help with the mysteries Digi, I'm terrible at solving mysteries, so would be more useful helping.

Bear: what times are you available? Tis simple. I send you the answer, and when folks guess, you post:

example
Does color have to do with it? no
Does height? no

the color is done, case you dont know, by typing
\ red{} WITHOUT the space. Just put the YES or NO in between the parens.

Nos and Soeur, you are doing a great job. This is the first time this kind of game has been attempted so I'm sure you will learn some things to improve it next time.

I understand Guru's frustrations because I've felt the same way. Perhaps, next time you could put a limit on how many questions one person could answer a day. If everyone could answer 20 questions a day, then if I came on at night I'd feel I had the same chance to answer as many as someone who had been on all day.

Thanks a lot for putting so much hard work into this. We really do appreciate it!

Here is a suggestion for Nossie. I can't post during the day at the moment <very busy at work> BUT I can participate in the evenings. We could set up times for playing and I would do livechat trivia contest with, say, 100 questions. From 7:00 board time until 9:00. I would do 100 an hour so at 8:00 I would start a fresh batch of questions (that way members who could not come in right at the start would know they still had a chance to play). So there would be a limit to the time/number of questions in the livechat.

Nossie is doing all of the vote tallying (a HUGE undertaking). You guys have seen how I duplicate numbers and fuddle up on a regular basis and should be <very relieved> that Nossie is at the help of this ship.

Catch you later...

p.s. My hubbie needs our computer up until 7:00pm and I can only sneak into visit when he turns his back for a moment

Hi everyone. Sorry I am so late starting today. Was trying to track down a mod to help me get rid of the BIG mistake in the scores.

I did that adding up way too late last night and missed a whole page with 40 questions! No wonder you noticed Wink, you had 28 of those missing pts! When I noticed it was too late to make the changes so I had to get a mod to delete them this morning. Thanks Flint!

Will repost the correct scores. :)
