Daily NFL Trivia game
 
[URL="http://my.funtrivia.com/tournament/Daily-NFL-Trivia-83385.html"]Daily NFL Trivia - Daily Trivia Game[/URL]

So I stumbled upon this on another forum where everyone participates in, and I set this up so all you 'Skins fans that say you know your shit can actually prove it.

All it is is a daily NFL game where you answer 10 questions in the shortest amount of time possible because it is timed. Now be warned this isn't that easy, these questions aren't anything any Joe Schmo can answer, it's not like asking what Peyton Manning's uniform number is.

There's a good number of questions you might not know but there are also some easy questions in there to mix it up. They put up 10 new questions every day so if you play the game every day you'll get more points, and then at the end of the month a new tournament starts.

There's no prize or anything but it's a chance to test how well you know your NFL history, so come in and play if you feel you are knowledgeable.

9/10

Looks like I cheated but honestly I didn't. I had to step away from my computer for a couple of minutes. I didn't realize they were timing the quiz. Totally guessed on half of them.

Holy crap. I had 6 questions about games from the 1940s and 1950s. LOL

Damn SS you're good, if you didn't step away from your comp. you easily would've won.

Lolol Schneed I said it wasn't easy. Some days they will be easier and some days they will be harder.

I actually had 2 Redskins questions...one about a TD pass by Sammy Baugh and who he threw it to and another about who the Redskins beat in 1945 because of a missed FG. Both were guesses!

mooby 05-01-2008 05:24 PM

Re: NFL Trivia game
 
I knew the answer to the first one about Sammy Baugh, it was [COLOR="White"]Wilbur Moore[/COLOR]. Don't ask me how I knew that one though lol.

Not too bad, but I took forever because I'm so indecisive, even when I'm guessing. :)

Today's was a bit tougher...

Re: NFL Trivia game
 
I need to brush up on my pre-1950 football knowledge

mooby 05-02-2008 02:02 PM

Re: NFL Trivia game
 
Yeah I'll give this a couple more days and if everyone doesn't like it then I will take the difficult, way before our time, have no clue what the answer is, kinda questions out. I didn't do so well today either, although I thought I knew what the answers were. Apparantly Jim Thorpe was not widely regarded as the first football player lol.

i hope this game sticks around. i really like it. thanks mooby

Re: NFL Trivia game
 
Ok so I took out the category that mostly pertained to stuff that happened in like the 40's and that time period, but I added a lot more categories, which i'm hoping most of you guys can relate to. I added a Skins category, as well as categories about recent NFL seasons like 05, 03, 02, and 01, as well as a Super Bowl/Pro Bowl categories. I didn't check the difficulty level for some of these but they shouldn't be that hard, I know that category I took out almost all the questions in it were labeled as extremely difficult and hard.

When you play today's game you are still going to get those tough questions that you had to answer like yesterday, but the changes should be coming into effect tomorrow.

mooby 05-04-2008 03:13 AM

Re: NFL Trivia game
 
So I just played today's game and it's considerably easier. I only missed one easy question. No more questions about who was the best player in the 40's and things of that nature.

Dude, that's crap how it will be asking you about the 2003 season, then suddenly you realize it switched to 2005. I am not smart enough to stay on top of something like that.

JoeRedskin 05-07-2008 07:56 AM

Yeah!! I'm number 1, I'm number 1!

Well, for now anyway.

Hey mods - Anyway we can sticky this somewhere to make it easy to play. Generally, I take a shot in the morning and have to search (not that I mind), but just was wondering if it is getting enough hits to put it somewhere easily accessed on a day to day basis.

So the real trick to this game is to go study the 2003 season very carefully I guess. .... Looks like the win streak ends at 2 ....

Instead of racing through, took a little time to think. (Usually, that is deadly for me).

I don't want to talk about today.

That's ok LB, we all have our bad days. One of the other forums I play this at, I didn't get any right lolol, it was a new low for me. Just faggedaboudit.

Re: NFL Trivia game
 
So I figured I'd help you guys out a little more. I didn't change any of the categories but I will tell you which categories you might want to brush up on. If you want to see the categories just highlight below, because there might be people playing the game that would rather take the hard way. All the categories in the game are:

[COLOR="White"]NFL History (126 ?'s)
the Redskins (101 ?'s)
the 2001 season (33 ?'s)
the 2002 season (82 ?'s)
the 2003 season (210 ?'s)
Super Bowls throughout the 80's (63 ?'s)
Super Bowls throughout the 90's (51 ?'s)
Super Bowl 35 (17 ?'s)
Super Bowl 36 (35 ?'s)
Super Bowl 37 (7 ?'s)
Super Bowl 38 (57 ?'s)
The Pro Bowl (31 ?'s)
Super Bowl XXXIX (9 ?'s)
the 2005 season (98 ?'s)
Super Bowl 40 (36 ?'s)[/COLOR]

I'm considering removing the questions from [COLOR="White"]Super Bowls 35-38[/COLOR], mainly because I'm sure I'm not the only one that can't remember those. The questions pertaining to a specific category, such as one game, are obviously going to be harder than questions from a very broad category, such as the 01 season.

JoeRedskin 05-09-2008 06:12 PM

Re: NFL Trivia game
 
I cant see any of the categories you listed
