March's round will be all geography again, albeit with slightly more specific caption names (eg, the first caption is "Name that world capital").
My goal is to have everything ready and post the first question on Saturday. With the new system, this would put the last question on Friday, March 28th.
I may reduce the number of questions to 21, but I kind of prefer the three categories of eight questions setup.

I'm in high school...Unless you mean college I understand (hear it's tough...?) but otherwise I'm mostly in for a lot of the questions, I just don't get/know the hint or picture that's presented haha. Otherwise if you manage your time wisely, you should be able to play unless you're taking all these AP classes and have no internet time then that's another thing haha.BGRtumpet wrote:The problem with these is school gets in the way, and its hard to compete if youre gunna hafta sit out most of the q's. =/.

Hahhaha I wish....
Track practice till 500....but no the real problem is that some days I just cant research possible answers, I have to much hw. Yeah Im in AP everything....cept band, that kinda drops my gpa
If the questions were hard enough that people were likely to miss quite a few it would easier to for busy people to compete, they would just have to get a percent right.
But honestly thats life. You only have so much time in a day and where you rank trivia in it all is up to you.

The questions were so hard I had to start giving hints. Even still, two or three people every question had the wrong answers.
Well, you're welcome to play "whenever," if you have the time and inclination.
