John is an admin...lol

Oops... Didn't notice that it was JOHNaudi, I just saw a random collection of letters... Unless something appeals to me in the text my eyes skip it. And if you're reading this John when do you host it? I'm probably at school or asleep due to time zones

Oops, I'm stupid, didn't notice that it was JOHNaudi... And John what time (eastern since its a standard time zone) do you host it? :0 I'm never online when you do

Oops, now I failed, it told me the first comment wasn't sent...

trivial- of very little importance or value; insignificant

You don't need to know the answers, nor do you need to use them in life. They're trivial.

Thank you for agreeing with me

But think of it this way: If you win those wouldn't you win them repeatedly? But lyrics is a good thought, as long as it doesn't become a typing race all over again...

EXACTLY MY POINT! I hate that...

I didn't mean that ONLY music lyrics should be hosted. I like it occasionally even though I've only seen one.

One time the question was "Who will win?" And the answer was "me." Another time the question was "What is the biggest thing in the universe? (Not Literal)" And the answer was "Andy's Butt". Sometimes the staff even ask questions where you have to fill in the lyrics. I wish staff members would actually host it fairly where people actually know the answer too, and not questions that 90% of the people have to look up on Google.

I miss Pimpsy. He was hilarious!

Also, it's trivia, meaning trivial facts. In other words, you don't need to know it.

That first part ties a lot into my idea, questions that just make you wanna answer when they ask "What do you say to leave this level?"

You have to have the sense to not fall for such an obvious trick..

I used to host it when I was an admin. I won't lie; my trivia was damn good. I didn't do questions like I know a lot of admins to do. That's one thing that I miss about being an admin: hosting trivia.

When he was admin (2 days)

I think trivia should contain normal short questions, because at the end of it, only like 10 people are still in the room. I, for example dont join trivia at all if its last event.

Johnaudi · 10-26-2012

I rarely host it "iEra Related", but take a look of some questions :
"Mary's mother has 5 daughters, Melly, Manda , Malanda, Marinda, what's the name of the fifth?"

Spoiler

"2 + 2 + 2 x 0 = ?"

Spoiler

"If olive oil comes from olives, where do baby oil come from?"

Thought it's the cosmic web and kept spamming it.

Johnaudi every time you open Skill I think you're gonna host Trivia but you end up hosting Tricky

When you were a self-induced, EC hoarder, poor-grammar, little kid (forever)
Get over it, kid. Yeah, so what, I was an admin for 2 days. I have a question for you: how long were you an admin for? Oh, wait... That's right. You weren't one. Hop off these nuts, son.

If you're going to try and host trivia, at least use proper grammar... It's babies. Maybe that's why people don't get your answers right.

I used to host trivia tons, it's the only event i'm willing to host as it's actually fun for both the host and the players. I've since given up on it though as the players usually aren't all that smart and can't answer my simple question, i then proceed to pull my hair out and cry in the corner over the simplest of questions, such as simple english literature (shakespeare, etc, it really isn't that hard at all), geography, history, science, pop culture and so on. If I could get a bunch of knowledgeable people to play, i would gladly host it like i used to. I too believe that the stupid questions and the really easy ones are ****ing ******ed because its just a typing race. Too hard ones become googled.
Slightly offtopic: I'd like to have the authority to be able to kick people i constantly suspect of googling, it really isn't fun for anyone and completely ruins the whole idea of trivia.

tl;dr ill host trivia for half-smart or better people

Lavaclaw, please host Pokemon trivia once, I beg you. Percy used to and it was relatively fun.
