What small and stupid thing has recently gotten your goat?


Mine would be spell checks that never give you the right suggestion for what you want even though you only barely misspelled something.

Small characters like * asterisks. I can't tell what it is if it shows up in question.

Just as I expected, I lost "Missouri" duel to a fellow Missourian. Somehow I beat a Floridian several days ago when the topic was "Florida." More than 3/4 of the time when it's a specific state or country, I get matched with someone from that very spot. Crazy how "random" it is.

Seems as though I've met a few people from Mars before.

You have already played for today..... comes up several times when clicking submit button. It is beginning to make me get the notion to stop playing. I do not see the scoring as to what I missed.

Dee... that generally happens to me if I accidentally click submit twice. Your score is still there. To see it, go back to the home page, and from there, go to whatever the game was. You should see your name highlighted in the results.

Medium challenge of the day is to play 10 quizzes in a subcategory of quizzes of not one quiz less than a "tough" rating. Pretty excessive for a medium challenge.

When I get any of those so-called "medium" challenges, I just switch it - unless the quizzes are in a category I am interested in. This is supposed to be FUN Trivia, after all :D!

Ah, switching. Wish I could do that today, with the "win the Buzzy Bee" difficult challenge. I really don't care for it at the best of times, but the selected sub-category is in Cricket Players; I don't stand a chance till it changes!

I would post this in the ad thread, but that's locked now.

Today, for the first time, I've seen ads during a timed game. I am fine with the ads on other screens, even during non-timed quizzes, but during a game where speed is scored, having an ad obscuring part of the screen is absolutely unacceptable.

This particular ad shows up as a blue circle with a price tag in the middle of it at the bottom right corner of the screen, and as soon as you start scrolling, it expands across the bottom of the screen and stays with you as you move down the page unless you X it to minimize it. It does not make it go away entirely, as that symbol still stays there at the bottom right.

I have seen it in The Mixed Game, the Fifty-Fifty game, and during a Quiz of the Hour. It was even here on the chat board, right before I posted this. It's not constant, but it is fairly regular at this point. Can something please be done about this, or am I just shouting into the void about this yet again?

I'm about to blow a gasket. Fourth challenge today is to win 4 duels. So far after 7 games, I have one win, a 988 winning by 6 points. Losses with the following scores: 991, 984, 967, and a top 20 score in "Washington".

How this site has become sluggish and laggy, which it never has been before. Delays after finishing a quiz before it loads to the next page might, in fact, add to your quiz time. My cache and Internet connection are fine. It's this site that needs a clean-up.

The ads that pop up for non-gold members, especially when I click on a quiz to play and an ad pops up that I have to get rid of before I can start playing.

I've posted about this before, but today's example has a humorous twist to it.

I got the Buzzy Bee difficult challenge, and of course the quiz that got me the award was the third to last quiz I clicked in the category (Diddy Kong Racing). But what makes it funny was the next category selected was Geography: Greece... the last category I won this in (and posted about it here)!
