Project Avalon Trivia Quiz

Pangaea · 12-26-2009, 06:38 PM

Hi folks, hope ye all had a wonderful xmas.

Im am working on a Trivia Quiz Game, with questions that are related to UFOS, NWO, ETS, EARTH, SPACE..etc.. and anything avalonian related.
I am therefore requesting some help from the good folks on the Avalon Forum to help me build up a good database of questions. The questions must as factual as possible, not too obscure.. the answer must be no more then 4 words long.

So for example:

Q: On November 5, 1975 this logger was supposedly abducted by a UFO while his friends watched. His story is the basis for the movie 'Fire In The Sky'.

A: Travis Walton

I have taken the time and made about 50 questions so far, but eventuly I would like the questions database to contain lots lots more then that, perhaps 1000+.. So im calling out to you guys to give me some quality questions (with answers)

If everyone suddgested only one question, it would be fantastic.

Hope you folks can help me out.

Happy xmas
Wishing you all an "eventful" 2010
Regards
Pan

You could start a game here where a member asks a question, and whoever gets the answer right gets to ask the next question. That will help you get some for your game.

Here is one ....

Q: On Sunday, February 25, 1996, the Space Shuttle Columbia deployed an experimental tether into orbit. There was more energy in the ionosphere than NASA had figured and the tether shorted out and broke free.

What happened shortly after this that made this event so special?

A: It attracted many orb like plasma beings that surrounded the 12 mile tether.

Hi micjer
and thanks for the reply. Yes thats a decent idea alright, but I feel ppl will resort to google.

The idea I have with the quiz is to run it as an acctual game script as part of the avalon chat room. This game( script ) will enable multiplayer and team games, including solo play. Players (and teams) will aquire points each time they play and will be added to records. The script also has the option to play the questions randomly, with any number of questions per game. Top 10 players and Top teams can also be displayed... And of course beacuse its a "real time" quiz, typing the answer quickly is essential, so this will rule out people wandering off to google seeking advice.

There are lots of other options available, but thats the system in a nutshell.

The more questions I add in, the less likly people will see the same question again when they play again.. I plan to constantly update the questions so its always a challange.

Thankyou very much micjer.. this question will be added to the database promptly

Edit:
Beacuse of the nature of the quiz, the answer is only deemed correct when typed correctly, so I fiddled with your question. its now:

Q: On Sunday, February 25, 1996, a Nasa Shuttle deployed an experimental tether into orbit. There was more energy in the ionosphere than NASA had figured and the tether shorted out and broke free. It attracted many orb like plasma beings that surrounded the 12 mile tether. What was the name of the Shuttle?

A: Columbia
