Trivia improvements

Post by tumi »

The first ever Trivia was run and it seemed to be a success. Besides a few typos in questions and/or answers, and perhaps some lame questions, what there is to improve?

Give the input here what would you change / add / remove, and keep posting the questions to my _mudmail_.

Remember, do not share information about the answers to trivia questions, it just makes them wear out even faster.. The plan is to have enough of them to last at least a year or so without repeating.

I didn't like the ambiguous questions that leave it vague as to what kind of inflection the answer needs to be in.

For example: elemental god question, the most numerous race in the valley and so on.

Also... some questions were ranked as "medium" and only a very small (<10%) portion of all the anwers were right...

Great event, though.

The questions rankings were of my 'mutu', so I tweaked those that went awfully off the percentage. Gimme tells / mudmails if you have suggestions of spelling of questions.

(Btw, the elemental god question is clear, the names are enough, no matter what punctuation you use, theyre detected from the answer)
