Haschel's Weekly Trivia League! Week 9!

Post Post #0 (ISO) » Tue Apr 24, 2018 8:17 am

Post by Haschel Cedricson »

Week 9's theme is Mythical Beasts And Where To Find Them!

****

Hello, Scummers! I'm going to be trying a new weekly trivia game. Each week I will give you a category along with 12 trivia questions related to that category. All you have to do is answer them. Simple as that!

Here's how scoring will work. You get 15 points for every question you get correct. In addition, each week you will designate five questions as MONEY QUESTIONS. If you get a question you designated as a MONEY QUESTION correct, you will get bonus points equal to the percentage of participants who got that question wrong. If you get a MONEY QUESTION incorrect, no bonus points for you!

Finally, at the end of the quiz is a space for you to suggest themes for future weeks. I will weight the suggestions of players who score better higher, although I will mostly be choosing on what I think is a fun category to write for.

Standard trivia contest rules apply! No Google or outside resources; do not look anything up.



Next week... Deserts!

Deadline is next Tuesday, noon PDT.

Also, what is NM doing? Worst play I’ve ever seen.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.
I'm guessing you haven't read the game and probably never will? Why even sign up to play?

Monty questions sounds like a great category.

You have my favorite wrong answer so far, so that counts for something.

This entire website revolves around playing games, and with that is the tacit idea that games will be played fairly. There's no prize to this game, looking up answers serves literally no purpose.

I do not appreciate your implication that Mafiascum is nothing but a den of cheaters.

Can I admit now that I just picked random questions as my money questions?

Because I did.

Also, just so people know, scores do not carry over from week to week so you are free to play as much or as little as you like without fear of commitment.
